And reading beautiful Jacqueline's comment has re-committed me to finishing my 1st novel, which is called "Mis-Matched.com" and is about internet dating. It is hilarious.

As far as the...ah that was SUCH a delight to read!<br /><br />As far as the affair thing goes.... he told you when he was drunk, so he might be absolutely terrified you're going to rat him out.....or he doesn't recall his confession. What sort of nick were you in when you heard it? Could you pretend that you don't remember him telling you?<br /><br />As a Tarotist, I often find that people come to me looking for some sort of permission to behave in a certain way. And I feel that this is what your friend may be looking for from you - permission to have his affair.<br /><br />Do you know his wife? I reckon you probably do and thus he has put you in a dreadful position which was rotten of him to do. If it was me, I'd pretend that I'd been paralytic with drink and say that you recall nothing of the evening past 9pm.<br /><br />I pulled a card for you re this friend/affair situation and got the Ace of Swords - time to use your godgiven smarts to work out what to do - not your emotions, not your gut feelings, but your BRAIN. Swords are all about facts, cutting through the bullshit, the problems that result from rubbish communications and yes, heartache. Aces themselves indicate that somewhere down the line lies the benefit of your decision - it's not apparent right now, but will be later. <br /><br />And that's probably not too clear cos my head is all busy with the Conference this weekend. I reckon you already KNOW what to do about this ;-)Alison Crosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06565962059926865121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4316792173764568160.post-83519361200522659912011-07-20T02:15:53.316-07:002011-07-20T02:15:53.316-07:00Other people's affairs? - run baby run!

...As soon as you hear the Edinburgh accent.....run.<br /><br />Thank goodness for the deviousness of mobile phones, what would we do without them. My commiserations to your friend, a loss can be terrible.<br /><br />If your friend told you when you were drunk, then obviously it's your duty to get pissed ASAP and tell as many other friends as you can. I suggest a dinner party.<br /><br />Sorry if I seem a little insensitive, but I've been married for over 33 years, and never, ever went astray. Opportunities have been offered, and mild fantasies indulged, but I made a promise 33 years ago and a promise to a loved one is a permanent contract. <br /><br />The fact that she's got relatives in the Chinese Mafia is completely irrelevant.<br /><br /><br />Chocolate and salt?

My best friend of 48 years ....... we started senior school together ...... has been internet dating for a few years now and, if you see two middle aged women in the pub, with tears from laughter, streaming down their eyes, it is us, she telling me tales of various meetings. She is not being cruel, just honest !!<br />I meant to say that, I think you said your son is in sound and my son is a producer at BBC Radio One, has his degree in Music and did a year at Islington Workshop in sound. A little something in common there !!<br />Will check out the Lindt Excellence Dark Chocolate with Sea Salt ASAP. Thanks for the tip. Will take a bar with me when I see my friend next.... a gift for her !!
