Wikpedia's definition of Ogress:


An ogre (feminine: ogress) is a large and hideous humanoid monster. Ogres are often represented in fairy tales and folklore as feeding on human beings and have appeared in many classic works of literature. In art, ogres are often depicted with a big head, abundant and hirsute hair and beard, a huge belly, and a strong body. Today, variants of ogres can be found in most modern fantasy games, and the term is also often applied in a metaphorical sense to disgusting persons who exploit, brutalize, or otherwise devour their victims.


This fits her pretty good actually except I'm pretty sure she doesn't have a beard.


Husband was unfaithful to me before and after our marriage, at least 7 times. I found out 13 yrs into the marriage. Trickle truth for an entire year. Several different d-days, so it was more like a d-year. Difficult recovery.

I thought this site is intended to be helpful to WS's as well as BS's. It is, after all, a Marriage Builder's site. Some OP's may find this thread as a reason NOT to participate and build their marriage. Is there ANY good that may come from a thread of this nature? Is the laughter that may come at someone else's heartache really that funny?

Perhaps some things are better unspoken in certain circles?

JMHO...SD

You're right. However, in my case I refer to OW as EWO (evil wicked one) because she WAS truly evil and wicked in her role in the attempt to destroy my marriage. I can laugh about the nickname now but back then, it wasn't meant to be funny.

The OW in my situation does what she does for fun and is still doing it according to her H.

She destroys other people's lives without blinking an eye probably.

She knew my FWH was married with kids and living at home. After he left me so he could be with her, she suddenly decided to "get back" with her husband, whom had never left in the first place.

She's a lying, cheating, ogress troll. Period.

And she will be until she wakes up and is remorseful for the path of destruction she has and is causing.

While I have had many discussions about respecting the humanity of the OP, and have even stopped calling the OM RM for a period of time, I have 2 agree with mopey here, and something hcii said a long time ago about forgiveness.

I have never received an apology of any kind from RM for his interference in my family for 12 years of our lives.

I don't respect his humanity, because I see no evidence for it.

If he, or the ex Mrs Meat (or even the current Mrs Meat, when he starts "doing 2 her") were 2 come here, I would be honest - and blunt as all get out - with them.

I would be disingenuous and uncaring if I weren't.

>I don't respect his humanity, because I see no evidence for it.


The only reason that I may even suspect VD might be human is because I've got 2 OC that tell me her DNA was at least compatable with other humans....

But the relationship to humanity stops there for her....

And until she AT LEAST mothers up for her kids, I'll NEVER change my mind.

Till then, she is a complete waste of air and other natural resources.


I never had to take the Kobayashi Maru test until now. What do you think of my solution?

O'hana means family, and family means nobody gets left behind or forgotten.

Hey SD, good to see you back from time to time.

Is it not honest to talk about all things related to your M and the A? If so, then part of that may or may not be a name giving to the very person who was at min 1/2 of the cause of the worst part of your life. Reading these names together may bring some couples closer.

IMHO I think a light hearted thead poking fun at ourselves is nothing to get heartburn over. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

PS - What was your name for OM?

The name I picked wasn't too original - "Stupid Man."

I didn't say that I didn't have the same kind of feelings you are all expressing towards the OP. And I think many of the pet names for the OP are quite original and have their place.

My only concern is that as a marriage building site, for an OP to sign on and read a thread with this content, they may be less inclined to post for help with their own situation.

I'm not trying to be a watchdog, or rain on anyone's parade, I'm just suggesting that it might be read by people who are at a real low point in their life, and looking for help, and may feel more threatened than welcome.

It probably doesn't help that an employee/friend of mine for the past 11 years took his own life Thursday, and wasn't found until late yesterday, when I received the news. Perhaps I just need to refrain from posting until the darkness clears...

Best wishes,
SD

Noffmix (Not fit for mixed company).

And I have to agree with 2long and Kimmy - OM in my sitch does not display any shred of humanity, whatsoever. Why would I insult all you good people by including him?

One of the better pieces of advice I once saw here was to always call OP by their formal title when needing to refer to them with WS/FWS present: "Mr/Mrs <husband's/wife's> Wife/Husband." Drives their real-life status home without being too obvious. Sort of like a left-handed compliment.

I have experienced that situation and I sympathise greatly.

I beat myself up for a while thinking I could have done something to make him change his mind. But nothing would have.

Meditate and come to terms with what has happened. maybe not lingering in this painful place might be less vexatious to your spirit for a while ?

You know my OM, Fugly, has not asked for forgiveness either, nor apologised to me.

But he has remained in pitch dark NC, quit all the posts he held in sport that might involve NC violation; submitted to any and all counselling , therapy and what not his GF wanted for him and has reached out to his estranged children from his previous marriages and relationships in an attempt to do right by them. Heck, he even got a job after years as a deliberate wastrel to avoid child support.

He has been pretty much the perfect post-A OM, and now I can only resent the fact that he does nothing to justify my hatred of him.

In truth he has become something of an irrelevence to ur lives. I can't summon up the passion to loathe him any more. It is said that the opposite of love is apathy, not hatred. I haven't prayed that he dies in a motorway pile up crash for months and months now.

Still fugly though <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Bearing in mind that my ex-fiancé developed into a semi-alcoholic underachiever that lost her looks, her pride and her lust for life then the best name I can find for my OM is “savior”

I try not to refer to OM at all, but I have considered calling him HF for Hog Feed, which he could easily have been if I were a truly vindictive individual.

I did once come up with a witty name for him that used his real name as an acronym, but I won't post it here since I wish to avoid legal retribution. Of course if he ever reads here, he knows who I am. I'm assuming of course, that he can read. Silly tobacco farmer wannabe...

Ogress? They're pretty vile.



Pardon my manners....I forgot to thank you.

It fits her. FWH & OW met in a fantasy online role playing game.

If I remember rightly the name I gave her started with a C and ended with a T. That was on Dday. I only called her that once. After that I called her "Sandy" (her name) because my WH tried to pretend she didn't exist so I liked to remind him that she did.

Hey, that was me! Before I came up with the name "Rat Meat", I referred 2 him as "The OMW's H". I did this during every one of our MC sessions after the 2nd or third one, using his W's name, calling him "K****'s husband".

My initial reason for that, which I told my W and our MC about, was that RM has a common first name, which is the same as one of my best friends in life, and I wasn't going 2 associate RM with my friend no way, no how.

It works fabulously, 2. It's a quick way 2 remind the WS that there is an innocent victim of their behavior out there, who's out there no matter how much they'd rather pretend they don't exist and aren't affected.
