    Stand him up and stop attending any meetings immediately. You have to make your stand sometime, so no time like the present. Why do something you really don't want to just to put up a false appearence? It is not going to get any easier whether you make your stand now or later. Good luck, Peace, Lilly

    Don't forget his wife is still in. It's not like he can just up and tell exactly what is on his mind.

    eventually he will have to tell his wife. He is just delaying the inevitable. Lilly

    Maybe you could look at the invitation and point out how many of the alleged points that are going to be answered (as promised on the printed invite I got) are unlikely to be answered in a (typical) memorial talk. Bait and switch bothers me a bit. Is it a discussion you could have? I saw the invite and laughed, because it is pure hokkum.

    I was going to say just don't show up and say you forgot. But I guess that won't work!

    There are many married couples were one leaves and the other stays, I mean what is the worst that would happen, even if you was DF'd and your wife wasnt, she would still be able to talk to you, and if she loves you as much as I think, I can imagine she would stand by you.

    Be Brave, and just do it, if you want to.

    hey that sounds great.

    Actually what would be cool is to know someone on here in your own territory, then you could have an RV and plan ahead of time what your gonna stump me with each time I bring someone along!
    Also, I could then be that guy in the car that always has an hour long RV when I go out, hell I could go there first and stay all morning! Hey, you live near Hamilton????
