Just passed the preacher broke down. Thought about stopping to help, but have to pick up our son from school. Could stop on the way home. It would be the Christian thing to do. You know you are recovering well when you get to this point in R.

Nah. OM probably has a phone to call for help. If you really felt compelled to do something, call 911 for roadside assistance for him.

I would say so. It would take everything I had not to "accidentally" hit OW.

Have a wonderful afternoon with your son!

Edited: oops, I usually double check where I am at, my apologies!

Coming up on 2 yrs post DDay. Yes, I fully understand those “accidents” now. He was gone when I came back through.

I would offer him a lift, then drive in completely the wrong direction and dump him many miles away from home.

I would've stopped and helped when hell froze over.

I would have waved as you drove by. No point in not being friendly at least.....

Just a reminder that there is no name calling allowed in the Reconciliation forum. POSOM counts as name calling.

Sorry about that. Thank you for the reminder.

I am glad that you have found healing. :)

Mano,

You are a better man of integrity than I. While I am spiritual, this is ONE area, where I by pass my beliefs.

Kudo's to you for having the thought to help someone in distress. I couldn't have done it. No way, no how.

You give me inspiration!

This is an interesting statement from you. In almost all your other posts you are very angry with the OM. I wonder how much of that anger is directed towards your CW since she's the one who really betrayed you. She's the one who broke your M vows.

Long ago, I decided the Christian thing to do was to refrain from sending a straight right down the middle...several times.

An OM should expect no more.

Hell No ... unless it to knock his car off the jack. He wasn’t very Christian when he was b—ging your wife. 🙄

Do not get in the path of Karma. Let it go.

If the last OM was on the side of the road, I'd leave him there.

I quickly came back to my senses and did. Much better than my other two options I thought about.
