Monday Oct 27.85 You're wrong Dennis; as tight as we are your problems with Rose concern me too. Your phone call last night disturbed me more than anything said or done before. I understood and could feel how hurt you were but it made me feel so shut out; as if I didn't exist in your life at this point. It sure put things into perspective. And it raised a lot of questions. I know it has already started me thinking about being involved with a man who is so incredibly in love with ex-wife. Do I really want to spend another, three, six months whatever, at the mercy of another woman's emotions. I'm already in limbo not knowing if you're going to be here next month, fuck this. Cliche as it may sound, I really don't need it. I'm not and I have never asked you for anything unreasonable, I'm not asking you for a commitment or to predict the future; I'm not asking you to change your life style, just a little respect and consideration; I'm very much a part of this and you owe me an explanation. I have become, thanks to you, a bit more self-centered and calculating, so tell me where do I stand in all this? I really don't like any of it. You probably need to collect your thoughts and feelings for a while; I'll wait. Give me a call when you're ready to talk. Lise
