Jeri, you just gave me an idea...
we can all meet up somewhere, someday, wearing the groucho disguises...and NO ONE will recognize us. We will be so inconspicuous.
Know what..earlier today he left me a message that he is coming to my area tomorrow, and wanted to see me.
Ive got an ideaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...
to arrange the locale and time...and not show up?
or
come up with another way to jerk him around....
Oh gosh,,Im sick,,,help me out...give me ideas on what to do without reallyhurting him...but to get back at him.

I've told this story before = but after the PI I hired halfway 'round the world got proof for me he offered me a job.
Let me know if you need some tips! LOL. Actually, I've sold all my Little Miss Detective equipment.

Hee hee, this is funny.
F-o-B, how could we not remember the cake costume???
I know it's not the "right" thing to do, but I can't tell you how many times I've pondered getting a PI myself! Then I think about how much money that would cost me, so I start making plans to drive back to where he lives and spy myself, looking at borrowing some binoculars etc. Then I realize exactly what I'm saying...yikes.
On a funny note again, let me know how those costumes work out...might have to add them to my repertoire.
****side note**** I had not read your comment today yet f-o-b before I posted...****

here's one gal who hired a pi....found out he had another ex wife and child in his life that he neglected to tell me about.
at the time, i really believed i needed to do it...and probably did....because then i wouldn't have learned what i did learn.....all it did was confirm what i already knew down deep, and cost me lots of money.
we already have a pi......it's called our instinct. save yer money girls, and just listen to your instinct.....it's a lot cheaper.

We all do stupid things. This was a stupid thing. You waited and watched, then followed him. What difference would it have made who dropped him off? What difference to your life did it matter who he was with? What were you hoping to see and what did you dread seeing. It's funny and it scarey too. Road games get people killed. Playing car games at an intersection endangers others. In the end, there was no point to it. Let's suppose a woman dropped him off. These are the stories that keep CNN in business. I perfectly understand this behavior because I've done things just like this. This behavior too can become a bad habit. It can become a dngerous habit. My ex got removed from the house. He had called , cried. begged, then......nothing. He knew he had to take this time to get himself sober and into treatment and only after he was sober and actively in treatment would I talk to him, He asured me he'd do anything to be able to come home. It hurt me so bad to know he had to live in a motel during this. Well, one night I decided to go and park across from his motel to see why his calls had stopped. The motel was in a different town. Sure enough, the girl who lived next door to me and was engaged to another guy pulled in, walked right in to his room with great familiarity and stayed. I sat, I watched, and I waited. The light went out. I sat sobbing knowing full well the heat between two new lovers while I sat sobbing in the car across the street. Why did I do that to myself? That AHHHHAAA moment didn't bring the anticipated satisfaction I had imagined, it felt like I just sat there and died.

friend,
awwwwww....the good ole revenge feeling.
spent numerous hours letting it consume me. didn't get me anywhere, tho.
just made me more miserable.
sometimes, it was the only emotion i had to keep me going.....or so i thought.
i'll never forget going to a meeting with a list of actions i had taken to set things straight with xah....list included calling police, filing restraining order, calling home manager of half-way house, calling his family, calling substance abuse court man....., well, hell, i would have called president bush if i had spent enough time to find his personal, direct phone number....proudly displayed all my work to my al-anon family.....a dead silence went around the
room.
like you said....a big scooby-do moment......ruh-roh.....i knew i had done something not good, but just didn't quite know what it was.
revenge may be fun to think about, but it will hurt me.
hope you can find something in this that you can use, or will bring something to you.
