    Dear, wonderful Bev,

    I returned late yesterday evening from a fun day in Corpus Christi to find an increasingly rare treat, a cherished message from my Bev! Your email was wonderful. For so few words, I could feel the emotion and sincerity humming in them like high voltage wires. Today, you see, is my birthday and your emails were a far better gift than I could possibly have expected. I don’t know if I could begin to describe the emotions your poetry evoked, but I can say I nearly kicked my door down trying to get to my car before reason reasserted itself!Β 

    I have been trying to not bombard you with emails lately to give you space, to let you find your center. I have been afraid my nosey interference had damaged your opinion of me, which thought pains me greatly. The thought of you crying while writing something so poignant (and quite frankly, I was pretty choked up after reading it and feeling the emotions I felt behind it, loneliness and isolation seeming the top two!) makes me very sad, however,Β the knowledge that at a moment when your self-control was low, you thought of me makes me feel invincible! I am tempted to print out your words and carry them by my heart, for surely nothing could harm me then. Please, do not be sorry or embarrassed.

    While I could, and would wax poetic for days, I will simply say that you gave me a very happy birthday and I sincerely hope for the drink and dance someday! Also, I would love for you to explain how you keep coming to the conclusion that this situation was in any way, shape or form your fault, were I not so adamantly not being nosey and interfering!?Β 

    Love,

    Shep

    Ok.. Here is part of my drunken stupor reply to his original e-mail that was just banal conversation stuff:

    Maybe someday, somewhere, the stars will align and we could meet for a beer and at least one dance πŸ™‚

    Just a fun fantasy… Hope I did not freak you out… I just figurd you were probably a good slow dancer..

    Love,
    bev

    This is what Scarlett sent right after drunk e-mail:

    Just in case I sounded totally insane…. which I probably am… I had the song in mind.

    Plain White T`s… ” Rhythm of Love”…

    For some weird reason, every time I hear that song , I think of you πŸ™‚

    Go figure…

    Don`t encourage me Annie… I have a strong inner Scarlett and Rhett is no one to be played with..

    Unless I figure a way to re write the whole story…

    Bev, here’s the best way I know to rewrite your story: First put a BIG PERIOD and a THE END after your story with Ashley (once you get every last thing you want and need from your divorce). Then with a completely clear conscience, carry on with Rhett as if there were no tomorrow. Love, Liza

    β€œI was never one to patiently pick up broken fragments and glue them together again and tell myself that the mended whole was as good as new.

    Bev – more, please! I am going to live vicariously through you, my dear. I know that March reconnected with a flame. I think we all should (through private text of course, until the D is final)!!! Whether or not it works out or not is inmaterial – it helps gets us across the abyss.

    This gets more intriguing by the minute, Bev. And just try and stop us from encouraging you. πŸ™‚

    My old flame is about to separate from his wife, who refuses to give up her emotional affair (that would be more if it weren’t for distance). She’s SO unconventional and liberated! Never mind that they have two kids who are crushed…

    Remember, Scarlett is a self centered bitch πŸ™‚

    Bev,
    Don’t do anything that gives your DAH ammo. Stay squeaky clean. But maybe this will get you moving on ousting the ahole.

    Love the quote, Liza. Perfect.

    Bev,

    You did see that clip from AC, right? I swear my H could have written that. I sure hope this one is a better catch.

    I have to say, I wondered if it was from your husband trying to snow you except he’s not in Corpus, he’s in Cali, right?

    Nope.. Rhett is not my H. That`s all I know…

    Scarlett has known Rhett for a long time..

    Just a fantasy girls. …

    I love it, really! Just creeped a little, still too fresh, all these wounds and triggers abound.

    And I admitted being drunk with “the Plain white T`s” thing…

    I just broke and wanted to think that somebody ( a man ) would give a shit. So, Scarlett went for Rhett…Knowing he would bite.

    I warned Rhett that Scarlett was a total and complete traumatized nut case..

    But to hear a man quote the rhythm of love to you sure feels good:)

    Yes, it is good to have a Rhett in your back pocket. I have a friend (a different one πŸ™‚ ) who I dated when I was dating Larry. Peter thought I was the love of his life and we have stayed in touch for ten years. He has gone through a couple of long term relationships but we still e-mail and occasionally talk on the phone. I know that he would walk barefoot all the way from Arizona if I said the word. It was, and is, still good to talk with him when I am down. ~ JoAnn

    HA! My other guy friend ( truly just a friend) who has known about fucktard ( I am liking that word) Ashley being locked up at ISH learning how to ” just say no”..sent an E-mail to Rhett..

    “If you hurt her then I hurt you”….

    Don`t you all just love the south?

    And IF ya`ll will stop haranguing me about being stupid and gullible ( I already know that) then I might post more about Scarlett and Rhett…

    Everybody needs a Rhett… somewhere..sometimes.

    I still like the Plain White T`s…

    No, no, no… saying that I WAS THE GULLIBLE ONE!!! I was behind in not knowing that you have history with this Rhett and so you are ahead in that game. And he sounds like a real romantic. it’s not his fault or yours that I’m so jaded now.

    I swear, though, you could change a few adjectives and phrases and that would be an email from my H to: me, his whores, his AFF, AshleyMadison, escort.com, plentyoffish, or match.com harems, you name it. I’ve read dozens of them now, and they’re pretty easy to spot. But H used M’lady as his salutation for all women until he got to know us well enough to tag us with something he couldn’t possibly mix up. He wrote eight M’Lady’s on the day he proposed to me. Sure wish I didn’t know this stuff.

    If anyone sends you an email starting with “m’lady”… it’s my H, betcha.
