Cain, 'Fog' is a mocking but accurate term we use to describe the deluded, illogocal, addicted behabiour and speech patters of wayward spouses in an active affair and in withdrawal thereafter.
Fog is rooted in hormonal activity peculiar to the kind of emotional and physical stimulation that can occur duirng an affair.
The Fog allows the WS to believe any old self-justifying sh*t regardless of an utter lack of support in logic or reality.
Much Fog talk and behaviour seems to be deliberately designed to hurt the BS, as belittling the BS helps to justify their unacceptable affair behaviour.
Lifers on these boards advise not to pay any attention to fog babble, as it really is the remablings of a temporarily insane person.
In my own experience Squid (My beloved FWW) became a snarling spitting, venomous thing for months.
I learned reverse babble from Orchid on here which really helped cope with this unpleasant but temporary set of symptoms.
And Cain, they ALL say " I love you but I'm not in love with you" or " I never loved you" Blah Blah.
Its sadly , pathetically predictable although ocasionally theres a new Fog gem to add to the canon.
The GOOD news is that with NC in place, as withdrawal passes, Fog clears to reveal a very scared, embarassed , humilated and loveless FWS.
Heres some of my Squids fog. look how poisonous and stupid it is, yet we're doing well no a few months later in recovery.
