BI,

I am not offering to counsel your husband vis a vis his relationship with you.

I'm here to help him get to work. I'm an HR professional and a headhunter I also will do so with the understanding that he's repented of his affair and needs to stop burying his head in the sand.

He needs a Christian who can give him permission to live like he's forgiven.

I think it's more of personal coaching and encouragement.

I won't judge him.

And the most important thing -- I'm foul-mouthed and have a disarming sense of humor.

If you don't feel comfortable with that, it's OK.

Let me know

Hey Theoden, can I have my wife call you?????

Seriously, BI, it sounds like Theo may be able to help your husband. I have no doubt that he knows what he is doing.

Theo,
I spoke with my H today briefly about the 3 folks who've offered email correspondence, and their different perspectives/backgrounds. He initially cringed about it, but actually is interested in being in contact with you first - and yes, about the job thing. Nothing else, friend, I understood your intent! (each person who offered contact has totally different things they wanted to bring to the table.)

For now, you win a tentative, trial friendship with my very smart and witty H! ... but not until the 2nd week in September. Family trip to the beach -yahoo! vacation! (complete with added bonus of inlaws! whee!) from 9/1-9/8 and no time to get connected until afterward. Hope that's okay with you, dear man. Will email H your info!

BI,

Waiting for your husband's email.

Byt the way you said about husband...

Quote:
Even now, he saw his old boss at church last week and mentioned how much he missed being a PART OF something via work, and this boss went on some random tangent about how that was prideful, etc. and just lopped the head off that my H had tentatively stuck out of the sand. F*cker. That just infuriates me. And makes reaching out/trusting that much more difficult the next time.


F*cker is right!!!! It's prideful to want to do good work and support the family you did NOT run out on?

He is usually on my thread quite a bit. Feel free to leave a message there if you want.

I've been encouraging him to start his own thread because people care about him so much. Maybe I should do it for him!
