My thoughts today are in a different place... What do you do when you are being accused of something you didn't do that was completely innocent? It's a tough spot to be in. It even makes you start to wonder if it really was innocent in the first place. So there's a girl... you like to chat with her... but there's nothing going on other than friendly banter. She posts on your Facebook page rather than messaging you privately. Of course, it's innocent, so neither of you really ever thought it might cause an issue to arise. Now the wife is beyond pissed... disgusted even. The girl is only 19... sounds like some sort of fantasy thing to her.
How do you diffuse the situation??? Telling the complete truth hasn't worked. You are thousands of miles apart... so there's really no easy means of communication in the meantime except for the time you have before or after your 12+ hour workday. Does one just stop being oneself in order to appease here, or is there some kind of middle point of compromise in the situation? I am a social person... and that includes both out and about and online. It's just who I am. I tried explaining that also to no avail. I'm also quite certain her friends will take her side as they usually do.
So... on this Saturday morning... I'm feeling upset and stressed and trying to manage it somehow. Hopefully this whole thing will go away soon, and we can get back to smiling, talking, laughing, and enjoying the small amounts of time we have to spend together through our webcams. This time is not the time to be arguing and fighting... I hate it. :(
Peace, love, and poker
