i was just thinking about talking to him tonight, talk about the kids first, but i need some help. i did call him to see if we could talked and of he wa like what about, i told him that i didn't want to get into it now, he said sure. one more thing he told my brother that he couldn't believe that this was me, and looked sad and said that he thought all i wanted was a ----. i never said that so i don't know what is going through his mind. he also left a vm that one night when we were both jealous, after i saw him wiht his friends and one was a girl, i told him on his cell that i guess he was using me, anyway he said that he was not using me that he thought that was all i wanted and to please not blame him,but if i needed to blame him that he had enough blame. that that girl was just a frien and that he was not ------- her that i could see people and we didn't discuss that. so i don't know if i should go ahead with the talk or just let everything lie, i'm afraid if i do we both may have our pride stand in the way and then i am also scared to death

Boy, I'm not getting all my housework done. But your posts is tugging at my heartstrings. Here goes, HB, you are in a similar position as Rick but your H is talking a 'bit' more sense. <P>Are you strong enough to talk to him yet? Is a 3rd party a better option? Let your H know how talking to him makes you feel. Let each other know where the scare is. How to overcome it. Let each other know the purpose of the discussion and the importantce to make sure you are protected from further harm. <P>My my, you just had heart surgery right? This kind of stuff is hard enough for the rest of us with stronger tickers. Please be careful. Don't continue to play that dangerous let's see who will be jealous first. Tell your H that is dangerous for your health!!!!! If he can't stop doing that you had better reconsider if you are willing to put yourself in jeporady to save this marriage. <P>Your health is important. Please be careful. IMHO, I would use a 3rd party to establish some firm ground rules before talks resume. Your H neesd to not play around with your health!!<P>Please take care,<BR>L.<BR>
