Trust me, I don't.

I read somewhere as long as they were still in replay/affair they weren't ready to come out of the tunnel but you can't believe everything you read.

Sleep,
I like Breton's idea of doing a little flirting. That allows you to kind of test the water a bit before you take a big risk and potentially push her away.

But if you're like me...you're going to have to learn to flirt again. Us old guys tend to forget.

Maybe you can ask the ladies that question over on your other thread.

Roger Bomb,

OK, survival kit check; 10 silver dollars, 2 pair nylons, 5 packs chewing gum............oops, wrong movie.

I'm in a funk today. W called to ask if I would take care of kids for an extra couple of days (long story). I said, "of course." She then began to describe what a fantastic guy I am in a conversation in which she referred to herself as my "crazy ex-wife." I guess I must look at the conversation as positive because she told me just one year ago how much respect she'd lost for me. Looks like I may have earned that back, but will it save the marriage?

I'm a "phenomenal father" and a "fantastic guy", so divorce me. Makes perfect sense.

Estimated time to target......

Then again sleep...they're in MLC. There not going to make sense, are they?

In that context, should you read that much into her referring to herself as your ex-wife? I don't know...I know it hurt for you to hear that. It would certainly discourage me.

But to me, the more important question is what is she really saying here? Is she now taking responsibility for what happened to the relationship? Sorta sounds like it, huh? Is that progress?

I guess what I'm trying to say is that the overall contest of the message is more interesting to me than the part of the message that hurt...the crazy ex-wife part.

Does this make sense?

I'm flying home today. Had a nice phone conversation with the W last night. Sort of anxious to get back home...

A guy could sure have a lot of fun in Vegas with all that stuff...
