Oh, and the one that kills me:

"It wasn't your place to talk to OW. You had no right!"

and

"It wasn't your place to talk to her H!"

Yeah, dude, whatever. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

Besides the typical stuff (ILYBNILWY, we're just friends, blah, blah, blah). I heard "Her (OW) H is a real jerk"...like my H was acting perfectly at the time.

We had a leak in our roof and I asked him if he was going to patch it. He (impatiently) said "It hasn't rained, so I can't find the leak." It was pouring down rain at the time and we'd had a discussion about it not two minutes prior to my question. FOOOOOGGGGGGGYYYYY!

"It wasn't in the plan for you to find out."

and two seconds later

"Do you think I had this planned?"

and then

"I had planned on stopping seeing her soon"

and then

"None of this was planned"

still yet

"Look, my plan was that I was planning to tone it down in the next week or so"

I guess the plans fell through....or not.

"So you still expect me to pay for half of the new roof (on the house we own jointly) even though I'm moving out?"

"Other people only have one account, why do we each have our own?" then a few seconds later, "And why do we always have to pay for everything equally?"

"I don't care what other people think of me!"

"Why don't you just move on and find somebody else?" then after my comment, "Of course you're not ready to date yet, it could take months!"

"<DD> will have two happy families and two of everything!"

"He (OM) feels really bad for you"

"Listen to what your counsellor told you!"

"I didn't sign anything, I don't owe you anything. It's not like a relationship isn't a commitment."

"His (OM) marriage has never been a good one" (Gee, I wonder why? Guess that makes it okay to have an affair with him.)

"This is my chance at love and I'm going to go for it!"

Aaarghhhh! Pretty much everything she's said to me in the last few months is too crazy for words. Talk about fog!

Love_left. Oh my god. my wife told me her OM said the same thing:

"He (OM) feels bad for you"

She has subsequently told me:

"OM felt violated because you came here" heh heh... HE felt violated.

"Look what you did, now OM might not come back because I have a husband" My unspoken question: Did he care when he courted you? Did he care the first time he slept with you? Did he care yesterday?

"I'm not having an affair. Something happened and I moved out"

"The reason its over is because you told my mother"

oh wait one more.

"I don't want to hurt you." When what she meant was, I don't want to hurt you, so leave me alone and let me hurt you.

Of all the dumb off the wall statements my H made during recovery the one statemnet that absolutely took the cake was....

"I never promised to be faithful to you when we took our vows. That was not part of our vows"

Huh???? "Where were YOU when we took those vows?"

I had to whip out our wedding video....replay it for him for him to believe that he DID promise to be faithful....

And no when he made this ludicrous statement it didn`t tick me off....it was so idiotic that even at that time that I had to laugh.

Early in confronting her with the proof: “You are wrong; he is like a brother to me.” (It had already been a PA for 10 years with D-Day 1 a few years earlier.)

About two months after D-Day 2: “You just like being a martyr.” The next day I went to Plan B.

During a argument in which I said why don't you just go back to OM.

I would never be with him if we got a D.
I could do much better then him. (but he was good enough to have an A with)

During another discussion about OM in which I tried to express concern that she did a lot for him and doesn't for me. I know bad to compare.

Of course I did we have been together for 10 years now.

Then finally.

Even after all of the things she did for him.

He never meant anything to me. (My question was, can I mean nothing to you too because then I would be happy with how you treat me)

Oh and finally.
She said she liked the fact he was chasing after her and it went to far.

Well she slept with him the first night. What kind of chase was that a one yard dash.

I said that last part too.
