Stories like yours really make me cringe - I just hate people being treated unfairly! I think when it was time to go do the groceries I'd just keep driving. Maybe a week later I may call him to see if he missed me or the car most. Depending on the answer to that question I'd plan my next more.

A long time ago, a friend asked me a question. For a long time, I had been pining for my ex-husbands attentions.
She was not the brightest bulb on the block. However, I believed that she might have just saved my life by asking me this simple question. She said to me, How can you love someone who doesnt love you? That cured me and motivated me to live my own life. It also has become a standard that I have learned to live by.
