Making the best of the mess.

[SoloUk]

I know I shouldn't make light of it and I hope you don't think me dismissive if rude but could it be alcohol pancakes he is trying out for his cooler??

Hope you are positive stay strong, he is the loser not any of us lbs, we are the ones making our lives brighter and more positive for us

Hugs tomorrow is another day

Hi Alison, It was a blow, but not a big blow. I have no idea if another woman is involved, but I know he lied to me several months ago about buying hazelnut creamer. Lied to our sons as well, this was the same purchase so IDK what to think. Just trying to figure out how I feel about it because right now I can't accurately identify my own emotion!



I'm still strong! Just wondering what my next steps will be. Thanking GOD for this 'time out' with H being out of town for 2 weeks and s17 being across the world! Gives me time to respond, if necessary.

I'm ok. Thanks for caring. Big hugs back!!

[97Hope]

haha Solo!!! Perhaps it is pancakes for the cooler, heavy drinking can make one thirsty!! (I never mind humor, it's what keeps me grounded and sane(ish))!!

hugs to you. Yes, tomorrow is another day and I have big plans to get my car inspected/registered and get my nails polished.

Right now just enjoying the sound of the rain and glad I have groceries in the house! I had been putting it off all weekend.

Thanks for your concern!!

[97Hope]

A little help, please. I've gone dark. Haven't contacted H in weeks (he initiates, I answer short yes/no, got into some minor flirting and a couple of too-much convos via text several weeks back but have since stopped)

He texted today for the first time in several days "Hey. How's everything going? Internet showed a lot of rain?"

He moved out 4 months ago, but has been maintaining the property (he thinks he is going to get it in the D). I don't really mind responding but I want to keep it short, but not be cold.

My thought: "Property is fine. I'll let you know if there are any issues." Or no response is what i'd prefer because I'm kind of sick of him reaching out on his terms...

What do you think?

[dillydaf]

Don't ask me, I'm crap at going dark

Maybe something like 'fine, thanks'. That answers both you and rain questions. Or don't even bother answering at all.

[SoloUk]

I am rubbish as well. But there isn't a direct question about the property. So I would ignore it. That's what you want to do. Go with what feels right to you, feels more like a temp check to me. But hey what do I know, I am floundering too

[97Hope]

Well aren't we all a group of plant-murdering, lip-stick wearing flounders!? lol I'll give it until a vet comes by with a 2x4. I think we should invite blu and stander to our beach to pub walk so they can train us up. (Solo, we decided we'd rather have tea/pint together then feed them cake) ; )

From what I've read on here, it does smell like a temp-check, but I know he's genuinely worried about the ranch. It was a ferocious storm.

[SoloUk]

Hope, pint please for me, hold the cake

[BluWave]

Not sure people even want to read my 2*4s, but I certainly have a large pile of them ...

[97Hope]

Blu!!! I have read and re-read your 2x4's you have NO idea!! They aren't even written to me but I actually save them. What you do for people here is amazing. Keep them coming!!!


Solo, gotcha! lol
