What was the weirdest or most stupid line your spouse told you after Dday?

Mine said: "I did not take any time from you. I saw her when you were at work or when you were volunteering."


Oh, yeah......and the time we were both at home we had a great time, with him ignoring me and watchin TV all the time...
That is what I call " quality time."

He took time away from his commitment to you and your marriage. That's theft of the nth degree. AND he took time away from you when he was with you - thinking about his actions, being crabby at you because he was conflicted...oh, yeah. He took time away from you, all right.

mad Silly wayward.

Me too! Which made it really hard to counter, as I knew it sounded crazy, but I couldn't put my finger on why... gaslighting in a way, as the BS just feels crazy themself, a normal reaction to not having the truth.

After D Day... well, WH was too busy trying to avoid me at all costs for much crazy crap to be heard. And then came Plan B. Now I only hear the crazy crap if I choose to... no thanks. grin

LostinLies, You sound like you are married to my husband.

Mine WH says "Well, you didn't even notice when I came home late from work".
Errrr, yes I did, let me see, you get off work at 3 pm and get home at 6 pm, and it is a 10 minuite commute. He always had some excuse why he was late. At the time I had 100% trust in him and him having an affair was not even thinkable.

Before his affair started, my WH hurt his back, he started sleeping on the couch, so he could have that support on his back. This then later got translated to the OW "My wife and I don't even sleep in the same bed together any more".
The other good one was "My wife is suisidal". Because 8 years ago I suffered from post partum depression.

"I think this is what we needed to be able to possibly have a better marriage, a wake up call." She is so thoughtful, isn't she.

Yes, I do agree..... they are thoughtful, aren't they?

I have heard a few more like:

"Did you think I was going to leave you for her????"

" You've undone all the good I have done for this woman." ( Really? like what? The only good I have undone is that he could no longer see her behind my back anymore and told him so)

" Why can't people believe that there can be true friendship between a man and a woman" ( not with this woman honey)

" She's great company"

" She's fun to talk to" ( so am I if you gave me a couple of minues of your time to talk to me )

" We have a lot in common" ( I am sure....)

I need to point out that it was only an EA

LL, really this is what the marriage needed?? I wonder how long that one took to come up with.....

Mine is..... "You never wanted to be around me, I just thought you didn't love me any more"..... I guess all those trips and gifts were just an evil ploy for SF.

I was also told that he made her laugh. While in counseling she said that I joked around too much.

I feel like wile e coyote and she is the road runner.

You made me laugh, that was a funny line!!!!! Yes, let's all puke, really.


He's doing the right thing now but the damage has been done....
I have told him that I will never trust him 100% regardless of what he does now. I also told him that like Reagan, I believe in " Trust but investigate." He got the point.

This is particularly humorous to me because
I've always described my bride and I as being
best depicted by Jessica and Roger Rabbitt.

"I didn't even think."


Lucky to be where I am, in a safe place to get marriage-related support.
Recovered.
Happy.
Most recent D-day Fall 2005
Our new marriage began that day. Not easily, but it did happen.
