He is sweet. I swear, he never fails to call for something important. & sure enough today he called to wish me happy Mothers Day.

Of course I do not know the whole story about you and lawn boy since I am newer to the boards but what I would like to say is I dated a man for 5 years that had a HORRIBLE past relationship with his exW. History of abuse and all sorts of terrible things. Had I based my going into the relationship on that I would NEVER have been with him but he was 100% different with me! He treated me very well! No mean

Rebecca,


I think you may be having a change of heart for LB, just as I did with S.

Do you remember the 'rent-a-girl friend' from Failure to Launch?

In some ways I do feel bad for Taz.. In his mind, you and Ave are still his family (in a wierd way) and he is trying every chance ... I believe this is the reason he cant get over anger and he feels helpless. I used to feel this way about my Ex and felt so helpless.


Like Soonee said may

I don't blame you for not wanting to see Taz on Mother's Day. So it is good you set him straight.

It is nice that LB was so good to you - he is our hero!! LOL!! Sounds like you are doing good today. Hope all is still okay now. :-)

Different people bring out different reactions in people. It's also possible to learn from your mistakes. It's also possible to mellow out with age-especially men. Do the educational and class differences matter to compatibility or is the concern how it will look to others? Just something to ask yourself. If he can carry his load financially and you're basically compatible. You can always take your time, go slow, and cut him off if any signs of abusiveness.

lol- I'd say 15 months of "this", whatever it is, FWB (w/ a history as accquaintences of 20+ yrs) is taking it slow!

i'm suprised that you can have any interaction with TAZ.... i don't with my abusive ex...


On mother's day we drove into the old city.... my dd5 wanted to visit her grandmother so we did... when we walked into the back yard... ex MIL said my ex was inside the house.. she said, you can go in if you want.. and i stopped in my tracks and said no.. i'll just wait out here... the girls went inside and got to visit with him.. then they came outside and played in the yard.... dd5 picked flowers for everyone.. and the next morning she said, "i wonder if my daddy is enjoying his flower today?".... obviously she thinks about him a lot...


give Avery a hug for me....

I feel badly for him as well. We ARE his "family" - his sibs & mom just arent close to him at all.
