I think most of us can understand your reaction and actions, footprints. It is this woman in California who thinks she might have a defamation suit against you that is what puzzles.

At any rate, good luck with it all. Post back if there are further developments.

"Not Thinking" - that's a great legal perspective.

As far as contacting her like I said I did it in the heat of the moment. I was not trying to start a war I was trying to tell the woman off because of what she did. She also had lied about pursuing him the whole time. I finally got him to admit that she wanted him.

I guess plain and simple it felt very good at the time to tell her what I though and needless to say I was not thinking of anything else. Not the consequences of my action I had not a care in the world I felt like she just participated in ruining my marriage.
I wish she would have gotten fired after all she had been emailing and everything from her work. She is a nurse and works at a university!!
Why would I not have any right to contact a woman that had been talking to my husband for months at all hours of the night?
As far as now I am going to let it go. I just needed answers about her threat and it feels better knowing she can't do to much to me. From the way I take it I would almost like to see her try. She would be wasting a lot of her money from the sounds of it.
What goes around comes around and she has ruined her reputation in her work place which already makes me feel better.
Thanks for all the replies I really appreciate it!!
Maybe I was a little of my rocker when I contacted her but I assure you I am a very normal loving mother and person peiod!!!!
Put yourself in my shoes that is what I have told my husband!!

"Heat of the moment." If that mattered one bit?

You didn't anything that is legally going to amount to much.

But don't think for a minute it was because your were justified in your anger and that forms a defense.

Xylene, I think the situation footprints found herself in totally justified her anger at this woman, if not totally justifying her email to the woman.

But, of course, being totally justified in your anger does not usually excuse any illegal behavior.

As far as "not thinking", that is the reason most people wind up on this forum with questions in the first place - because they, or someone else they know, were "not thinking" when they did something dastardly.
