unintentional purging

[LovelyRita]

Just wanted to share a "funny" boo hoo story that happened years back. It was after my divorce that I started acquiring some shoes and breast froms and such, and had built up quite a collection. I was engaged to my now wife who of course knew nothing of my activities and was there with her 13y.o. son. We were getting things ready for them to move in when Cody, her son, called us into the storage room where he asked what he was to do with all of my "ex-wifes" things. My fiance at the time look into the box of stuff and asked if they were indeed hers, to which I blew it off as of course this is just some odd ball things she left behind and was suppose to come and get. With a knot in my stomach I said, "I had forgotten they were there so just toss them."
Now I hadn't dressed in a while being so involved in our relationship so at the moment I told myself I didnt need them anymore but that knot truly told me otherwise. But into the trash went at least $1500 worth of treasure. Now my wife knows and laughs that I did that then, and i have never been able to justify paying the $400 for another pair of forms.:doh:

Yowch! I guess it was worth it at the time to preserve what you thought was gonna be the relationship that "cured" you...but...

it wasn't just the monetary value of the stuff that hurt, was it?

It's great that you and your wife can laugh about it now.

It's a good lesson for a lot of us.

Thanks, Rita...

BTDT and have the reacquired wardrobe and acoutrements to prove it. LOL.. yeah, though mine was only unintentional on MY part.. my second wife didn't bother asking, she knew about Kandis and just threw out all my stuff, clothing, shoes, wig, make-up, forms, etc.. roughly $5,000.00 US worth of stuff...I was both pissed off and heartbroken at the same time because she did it just before the garbage men got there so there was NO CHANCE of my retrieving the duffle bag from the dumpster.

Kandis:love::rose2:

Rita, that must have been a hard one to take! I can only imagine how devastated you must have felt. If you had been quicker thinking you might have said that you were going to box all this stuff up and send it to your ex-wife. But then if you had said that it would have been the beginning of deciet and dishonesty in your new relationship and that would have been the wrong thing to do. I am glad to hear that your wife is now understanding about the cd and that the two of you can look back on this incident and laugh about it. It sounds like you have a wonderful wife and both of you must feel so fortunate that you have each other.

ouch, I thought finding true love would cure me as well. Yes I found true love but no it wasnt a cure. I do wish I wouldnt have tossed everything.
