Hi all, and thank you for all of the help you have given me and others in the past. I truly feel that this is the most awesome place a newly betrayed spouse can land on the interwebs.

What follows is a couple of posts from a very active hunting forum I am on. It is amazing how many of the guys there are going through infidelity and divorce. I always point them here, don't know if any have taken my advice. Anyways, I think the second poster very intuitively summed up the wayward spouse alien concept. And BTW, he did recently go through a divorce with a WW.

Poster #1 "It's bizarre to watch grown a** men turn into estrogen-soaked p***** the second their wives walk out on them. And then a year later, they unanimously lament how boned badly they got boned in court. One of life's strangest phenomenon. "

Poster #2 in reply "I think it's kinda like when the zombie apocalypse comes and it turns out that your dog can get bit and turn into a zombie as well, then your dog gets bit by a zombie dog. You know you gotta shoot your dog because he's fixing to become a zombie and eat your brain, but you don't want to do it because he used to be your dog, so you just sit there crying and singing Journey until Fido's eyes turn all white and roll back in his head. All the while, you're armed to the gills but you aren't doing anything. "

I've been chuckling to myself about this one all day...

Well, I'm glad that your ex did not get your brain. Did/does she get your wallet?

I promise #2 was not me! LOL! That was what was so funny to me, was that he intuitively got the concept without being a member here as far as I know. There were 2 other members on that forum going through the same thing I was at that time, he was one of them. Although I was not too active here, I learned a lot and it amazes me how often I see MB wisdom in my daily life.

Hey imagine, thanks for asking. My brain is intact I think, wallet too....everything kinda came out in my favor because she was terrified of a court battle...one of my best friends is an attorney, and she knew I had near-free legal representation.

"Did you hear about the guy that had been watching a program on hospital cases where the patient was kept alive to be a human vegetable.

He called his wife and told her that he would never want to be fed juices and plugged in a machine to sustain his life.

So she unplugged the TV and through away his beer."

Yes I'm afraid I'm plugged into the internet while my son is into TV games shooting Zombies - I have not the strength to switch us off.

Honey, you live in Canada. Might as well be Siberia as far as Mel is concerned.
