"It was only for the sex, and the sex wasn't that good anyway. I don't know why I kept going back, it got boring really fast with her."

"I didn't plan for you to 'ever' find out." When I pointed out that this plan obviously failed, he said, "That wasn't in the plans, either. I didn't plan that far." (What happened to the plan for "EVER"????)

"Having sex with someone else doesn't mean I don't love you."


Lucky to be where I am, in a safe place to get marriage-related support.
Recovered.
Happy.

What it really means is that you don't RESPECT me. Or our relationship.

"OW and I are so much alike. It is like we are family." puke Do you commit ADULTERY with members of your family? POSOW even jokingly called him her "retarded cousin." Hmmmmmmm

"She's not my type so I can't be having an affair with her." Hmmmm me thinks you're a LIAR.

Now what about AP comments to BS? I got, "I haven't slept with anyone in 2 years" as PROOF that she wasn't sleeping with my WH. Of course she also said that he wasn't her "type." And she BRAGGED that she hadn't dated anyone for more than 2 years. Her FB states that she would NEVER get married because she couldn't stand being around anyone that long. Oh wayturds and their POSAP.

month after his first and only child was born
"she (OW) is my own happiness"--oops guess he forgot about the newborn

"it's me not you"

"i can really talk to her and she understands me"

"i only stayed with you because i felt sorry for you"

Last but not least.... when asked why he would do this after three miscarriages and finally we had a child (which he couldn't wait to be a dad) "I came to terms with the fact that i would be a part-time parents... i didn't want to get to atached at first knowing i wouldn't be there everyday from the begining" (vomit)

"There is no one else, I just need some space to think about things" (and he moved out two days later).

"I just can't be who I really am in this marriage"

"I've always felt my life would be short and I want to live it to the fullest while I can"

I don't love you and I haven't for...(insert the amount of time here). With my WH the length of time always varied. First he said the past year, then it was the past two years, then it went to the past 6-7 years (which is our whole marriage!).

"Marriage Counseling would never work because too much has happened and you would never trust me again" (while still denyin A!).

I got that one too! Right....because having an affair with a married man really demonstrates quality of character.....

Here are some good ones:
"I only married you because of the momentum leading up to the wedding."
"You're ruining [OW's] life!" (by talking to her husband....)
"She loves me like I want to be loved." (yes - which is why she was honourable enough to leave her husband first and wait till you left your wife -NOT!)

And my all time favourite:
"I love you, but it's more like I would love a sister." (and all the while my pregnant belly stands out between us....)

I'm going to need some more WW fogtalk; there's precious little of it in a sea of all this WH fogtalk. So, guys?

I'm typing as fast as I can to write new entries though!
