  1. OMG...look at this new PM thing...I don't like it!!!!!! Now I have to befriend you again?

     

    *Allie hates change....

  2. Beautifully written..... I think we've all been there and you have captured it completely!
  3. Very nice Brando, as usual! I agree with OLG, more, more!
  4. Hoss, Nice post, but you ruined the movie for those who haven't seen it !!! LOL!!!!
  5. My wife asked for a divorce a year ago. She flip-flopped from Feb '06 to Oct '06. We were in separate rooms as of July. She finally made up her mind in October, and she is FINALLY moving out at the e/o the month. Talk about difficult! And we have a 3 year old... What did I do? I stopped talking about the relationship, supported her with the divorce, remained pleasant, tried to get on with my own things. It isn't easy, in fact it's the most difficult thing I've ever had to do. At times (especially lately) the tension is so high, it can make you physically ill. The key thing to do is remain upbeat (even though you may be dying inside), don't argue, just agree and walk away, DON'T try to discuss the relationship, and give each other space. You can do it, hang in there!
  6. Mornings for sure. And often after lunch. I think it may have to do with what/how much you eat? I'm the absolute best at night. I feel safe, secure, and comfy. Don't know why, just do...
  7. I crave routines. Security. Putting my roots down! Heck, a snowday is enough to wet my appetite for change!
  8. When a person leaves their partner, they have usually made a decision based on a long, long period of careful thought. They have left because that is what they have decided to do. If they realize they have made a mistake and want to come back (very rare case) they will do it all on their own, just as they left. It's that simple. In the movies we always see the dumpee reciting that magical line that instantly wins back the dumper! Think of how silly that really is!
  9. She moves too slowly Pouts when she can't have her way, then stonewalls Can't put on a happy face for anyone if she's mad Leaves piles of stuff all over the house! Takes forever to get ready Won't try anything new or different
  10. 25% of men admit to it, the other 75% lie.....
  11. 1) Became consumed with my career, thinking it was what was best for my family 2) Became miserable and depressed about the pressure from my career and felt sorry for myself 3) Didn't think I had time to listen to her problems and concerns I now know what is really important in life. This I will share with my next mate
  12. Very common, very normal. My wife and I have both been going through this (she asked for the divorce, i didn't want it). It comes and goes, but in time gets less and less. Unfortunately, time is the only cure. You can, and should, force yourself to get out and do things, but DON'T beat yourself up because it's taking too long! I would also recommend seeing yur doctor... he/she can make sure you're OK and perhaps give you something to help ... It helps to stay on an even keel with your SO, don't hate him/her, just try to accept it for what it is and keep it as friendly as possible... Hang in there, time IS on your side!
  13. Ditto on what labeheme said for me, but it was my wife who walked....
  14. LOL (literally - Laughed Out Loud!) ! My wife is an embalmer and the smell of dead bodies doesn't bother her, but I've almost made her sick from my gas!!!!!
