Well, that's a start.
Now that nutballs wife realizes her hubby is the problem and left her place of employment is a step in the right direction, I think.
But, the problem that remains is who is the mysterious caller who claimed he was you. Upon reading your previous posts, maybe nutball just assumed it was you to begin with and when, on the second phone call, nutballs wife asked the mystery man if he was you, he just said yes.
tis a puzzlemnt...
