    I need some advice on what could be a life changing decision.

    I've suspected for some time now that my girlfriend has been having an affair. The usual signs. Phone rings, I answer, someone hangs up. She started going out 'with the girls' a lot recently although when I ask which girls it is always "Just some friends from work, you don't know them". I always look out for her taxi coming home but she always walks down the drive although I can hear a car setting off. As if she has got out of the car round the corner. Why? Is it not a taxi? I once picked her mobile up just to see what time it was and she went beserk and screamed that I should never touch her phone again and why was I checking up on her.

    Anyway, I have never approached the subject with my g/f. I think deep down I just didn't want to know the truth but last night she went out again and I decided to check on her. I decided I was going to hide behind my car which would give me a view of the whole street so I could see which car she gets out of. It was while crouched behind my car that I noticed rust around my rear wheel arch.

    Should I take the car into a body repair shop or should I buy some stuff from the local auto shop and try to repair it myself?

    I tend to fair much better with physical pain rather than emotional pain. That's why I am very careful and tend to lean towards living alone.
    It is difficult to tell how emotionally invested you are in this relationship, but if you're living together, I'd guess that it's fairly serious.

    I would figure out a way to be sure - then break it off. She obviously doesn't respect you now, and if she continues to play you for the fool her respect for you will continue to drop. Do it soon and save some face - then move on.

    Greg Schmelzer What are you looking at?!

    My take...

    The way I see it Mark, is that you have two options.

    1. Take the car to a reputable body shop and have it fixed properly.

    2. You need to call Maury Povich or Montel Williams and get yourself famous!! :laugh:

    Sorry to hear that man, really, really sucks. You spend all that time thing "this is perfect" and "It can't happen to me". Happens to most people though, and it always throws you when you finally find out for sure and can't delude yourself anymore. I'm sure you'll be able to work it out if she's not too tough to deal with, but hey Buick rust rarely goes easy. We're here for you man!

    Great post :TU:

    Well the only issue seems to be is it worth saving women are a dime a dozen but a Buick now thats worth all your efforts

    ps: don't let her know about your pain ( rust ) she would never understand n!!

    You got me, Mark!
    Good one.
    Good to hear from you, haven't seen you around here in a while.
     
  12. a relationship is all about trust
    if you can not trust that what is the sence in going on with your girlfriend
    cheating or not
    even if she wasn't you still need that trust
    painful thing to go through and my heart goes out
    honesty to yourself and trust for the other person.
    without it there is no relationship
    good luck
    Greg

    The way I see it is like this. You need help! It will never stop until you do something about it....You can go and see all "SPECIALIST" you want, BUT If they are not not on the same page as you, Well then they will never understand ! RUST AND TRUST Are the same thing, If you can't Trust the SPECIALIST to teach you on how to work together, The RUST Will continue to grow! BUT! If you Trust the Specialist then the Rust Will go away! Depends on how much effort you put in it! :)

    Hey Phil. I will try my hardest to get down there this year. Currently doing the "play a guitar in a band thing" and most of my weekends are kinda filled up. Hey, we play at Gruene Hall and Midnight Rodeo in Austin. Maybe you can come by and check us out.
