I am trying so hard to just get angry and not love him anymore, but I'm just not there yet I guess. I got my keys to my apartment Sunday, and I spoke to my realtor lastnight. He said he's had people interested but they don't want to see the house until the price drops. So i told him I wanted to have an open house instead before we drop the price on the house. He said we can do it on 10/11, which is in two weeks, but I told him with the situation I'm in and how my ex is acting I would prefer to start moving all my furtniture out, and not worry about having the house looked live in so it will sell faster, I just want to move on, and get in a place where there's no memories, a fresh start. Please keep giving me advice. I know I've still got a long road ahead of me.

By all means ((((Deedee)))) - go ahead and move your things out. Quite frankly, when I would go house-hunting, I preferred to see the place empty so I could really get a sense of the space and visualize my own furniture and things in it - so, not having it look "lived-in" can sometimes be a plus. The open-house idea is good - I agree - do that before you consider dropping the price. Hang in there (((Deedee))) - you're doing good - you're going to get through this and have a much brighter future ahead. Don't worry - we're here keeping an eye on you and will support you through this.

I do have one question, though - when your EX goes off to meet with that other woman, where is his son? Are you providing babysitting services for him while he's flaunting his affair in your face?
