Hmm.... sound familiar? Anyone? I think I know this BM.

Last night of my vacation and I'm out with friends (a married couple I have known for years) and in walks a co-worker of the male part of the couple. He sees us and comes over to say hi. My friends invite him to join us. (Now wondering if it was a set-up situation, lol.) This guy is totally awesome. Very attractive but not in a 'I'm so hot, every woman wants me' kind of way. He has the best voice and the most infectious laugh. We hit it off big time. My friends decide to call it a night since we'll be getting up early for one last boat ride.

Hard to believe that it's been a year already. Where did the time go. I guess time really does fly when you're having fun. Well, it wasn't an entire year of fun. Let's be honest about that one upfront. The first few months were hell, and much like a recovering alcoholic, I got through it all, one day at a time. There IS life after StepHell and it can be glorious. For those contemplating leaving, more power to you. For those still fiercely battling for salvation, my best wishes always.

I really don't know how I feel about it. As crazy as this sounds, I thought he would at the very least, make some attempt to salvage the marriage (not that there was any salvation to be found) but, I wanted him to TRY. I guess I just didn't want to be left feeling like I wasted the last 9 years with him. Maybe because I tried so hard to keep it all together for so long, I expected that for once, he would show some effort... for me. Nope. He tried harder for that psycho BM than he ever did for me, and he claims that he hated her.
