My favourite from WstbxH was "I never meant to fall in love, I only meant to have an affair!" Ya, that made it ok then!

My favorite of all time is "you don't have to forgive me, God already has and you don't matter to him." Niiiiiice...your wife isn't the captain of the boat, she's the commander of the fleet. WOW!

Not really gibberish, but I found a letter I wrote to my H pre-dday. In it, I am questioning his behavior as of late, and it kind of lays out how foggy and out of it he was. I was thinking of posting it but it is kind of long... Two weeks prior to d-day, I was questioning FWH behavior as well. He told me how he was working hard to be a good husband and that he was the only one trying. :RollieEyes: About a week before dday Ike sat down and grabbed my hand (while I was standing) looked me in the eye and told me that he loved and adored me, that he could never want anyone else, blah, blah, blah. I was questioning what was going on with him and a coworker and I guess he was trying to get me off the scent...I don't know. Now he says that he really meant what he said (though while we were separated he said he had been lying to himself and me) and that things just 'happened' with OW after we were separated. Ugh. I do think that Pariah's wayward takes the cake...wow!

I recently got a delightful email about how ungrateful I am for everything he's done, that I should "apply" myself and get a better job, and that I should look at other divorced women and thank my lucky stars he's at least given me money.
Oh and he also whined about having to live paycheck to paycheck. I have a mortgage, 2 kids and the dog, work my butt off to make ends meet. Making less than $20,000 a year. Between him and OW (who he lives with) they make $80,000. And he has the nerve to complain he's broke and I'm ungrateful!
Also, that he let me stay on his health insurance when he didn't have to. (That paid for the really fun STD tests I needed thanks to him.) Someone give him an award.

Gee, how do I choose? Perhaps the most recent:
After I find a disgusting 20-second video of WH and OW on his email...both of them drunk, OW practically sitting on his lap, WH laughing and with his arm around her:
WH: Well, you didn't HAVE to look at it. You didn't HAVE to go into my email either.
Then...after asking WH if this lovely video is from this past weekend...
WH: That video was from years ago
Yes, because as your wife I cannot tell the difference between you 6 years ago vs now. Ugh. No wonder it was plan D time.
Me 37, H 38 Dated 5 yrs, M 5/2002 15 yo DD DDay 1 - 9/2002 OW 20 yo relative of H's friend DDay 2 - 6/5/06- met OW on 2 week business trip, knew for one week - wanted D. A continued via phone/txt through 9/2006 NC Since 10/2006 DDay 3 - 8/2/08 - OW#1 has slithered back into the picture Plan D

WxH: It's your own fault you are so upset. You dug and dug until you found out."
It took no digging - he's just not that smart. He was sleeping on the couch after a long night out - returned at 4am - is cell phone was nowhere around him. It was on his visor in his truck. I unlocked his truck with my key, which he NEVER locked before, we live 20 miles out of town, and check the recent calls.
There were calls to a number I didn't recognize at 2:45am. I confronted, he lied. I called the number later and asked for the person he said it was. The woman who answered said I had the wrong number.
Confronted him again. He lied.
I confirmed my suspicions when the cell bill came. He admitted he was "seeing" someone.
You've got to love those cell phones. :RollieEyes:
and the stupid people who use them for affairs.
Oh yeah, he was PO'd that I had entered "HIS" truck without his permission.

Hi Pojitos, Wow GH31.
Reading those notes from WW I just have to feel so sorry for her. She seems to be trying so desperately to end her A and each time she gets close, you do yet something else wrong.
It's almost like you are inventing new ways to keep her from ending the A. Like you are clairvoyant or something. How do you always know the one thing that will stop her from leaving OM?
Amazing.
Bad karma I guess.
Poor little WW. Are you serious? Is there something I am missing that knock some sense into my WW? Do tell if there is. We went for breakfast in Sydney again this morning before work, and it's like it always is between us. I'm buying some removals cartons today for Plan B. best, GH31
Me: 36 FWW: 36 1 son born in Dec 2009 - confirmed mine through DNA test 1 daughter born in Nov 2010 Together: 13½ years Married: 10 years

Oh, I almost forgot...
STBXWH called me one night at my sister's. Starts about how he just needs some space, yada, yada, yada.
I remind him that it must be difficult to get said space with his new girlfriend in tow.
Anyway, he tells me during said conversation about how he would take care of me. He was going to keep helping pay the bills (all credit cards that he maxed out) and that I wouldn't have to worry about a thing. He gets paid the next day, but his check does not go into the bank. I call and ask what is up as I had to pay the bills, and he claims he has no idea why he did not get paid. (I forgot to add, he had me put my paycheck in the bank as he "needed" money to put gas in the car...dummy me, I did and he cleaned out the account) The next day I ask him if he is withholding money from me, and he says, "I dunno what happened. I think the secretary is withholding my pay because she does not like me. I am pretty pissed off cause I need some money too. I am gonna go talk to her right now." As I hang up and roll my eyes...
Also, he wanted me to keep everything from our home. He doesn't want anything, just to get a divorce. lol
About a week later, I get a letter from his lawyer. STBXWH wants the tv, surround sound, dvd player, movies, satellite receiver, the china his mom gave you for Christmas, the silverware she also gave you, and the rest of his clothes. (his clothes were left in a heap on the bedroom floor)
I ignored said letter and continued on my way. It was not until I dropped in on him at work, demanding money for car insurance that he remembered an engagement ring could fetch him some cash. I get a letter a week later asking when I will contact him about the things he wants, and adding the ring to the list.
I call him up and ask about it, and he says, "Oh. My lawyer made me send that out to you. I don't really want anything from you. It was all her wanting that stuff."
For reals??? hahaha

Ahh, the memories are coming back. A few more classics: About a crystal vase that was given to us from his relatives at our wedding (14 years earlier) that he wanted: "They really meant it for her because that is who I truly love."
His initial plan for separation (after the ILYBNILWY speech but before d-day): "I'll keep the house so DS has a place to come home to and you can move closer to work." Meanwhile, unbeknownst to me at the time, OW was filling out transfer forms for her DD to move to my local school.  His excuse when I asked him how he was going to explain her presence if I had let him take the house (she was planning to move in the following week so I would still be there): "I would have told you we just met." Ya right - big so sorry I hurt you and I need my space speech and a week later you've met someone and you are ready to not only move in with her but her 7yo daughter as well??? His excuse when he bailed on DS - he had promised to lend him a vehicle to go pick up kilts for his wedding the next day in another city. I couldn't lend him mine as I was picking up out of town guests at the airport in my city. "I can't lend him a car because we would be screwed if something happened to it. We need both of them to get to work."
He has 2 vehicles and both he and OW work at the same place. And I ended up giving DS my car and renting a car so I could pick up my friends.

Ahhhhh. Another goody from Chicklet (WW) this afternoon. Since she's living in the house with Snaggle Tooth, and I'm in an apartment, I didn't pay the entire mortgage this month and now the mortgage company is hasseling her. I just don't have the cash flow, you know what I mean? She leaves me a voicemail and tells me I need to ask my parents to loan me some money so she and snaggle tooth will have a place to live!  Like my folks would loan me money to pay for her and Snaggle Tooth to have a place to live.

Over several months I got... You'd be better off with out me (before D-Day) If we ever broke up I would only want the computer and my car (ditto) letter from lawyer 1 week after D-day, asking for computer, 2 cars, clothing, table, family bible, scuba gear, Ham gear, silver, books (and he doesnt even read!), all our 300+ CD's, most of which have been bought during our amrriage... it was a big list, more than a car and computer :RollieEyes: When he first come home.. I hate the bedspread. (he picked it out) This morning I asked him should we buy a new one "no, I love this bedspread, why would i want a new one?"
Actually the one I am currently finding most intersting is the way they don;t even remember what hey say when they defog. On reading Marks post in the lying as a 2nd language thread yesterday... "I would never say those things. I certainly didnt say i havent been happy for years, only for a few months." I showed him the emails he send me :crosseyedcrazy:
I like this guy, but you know what???
Waywards Suck

Lildoggie, I have heard a similar one just recently from my WW: "If you move out you can take that double bed. I've never liked it..."She picked it herself 7 years ago - I put money in her bank account so she could by us a bed and she chose it. What is it with these waywards?

What is it with these waywards? PEA Poisoning. Story behind the bedspread... We BOTH went into the shop with a budget. Bought a morrocan bedspread, marroon and gold with black flecks. He got his sister to send a marroon mosquito net over from england. We bought european pillows, cushions, roll pillows.. it was a big set and that was our Chrismas present to each other 3 years ago. All up it cost $1000. Its very bold and strong. After he said he hated it, he said it was too 'girly'  So this morning when I was making it, I asked if we should get somethig more male orientated, like a Holden cover. He said I was being silly  Well I could have sugested a playboy bunny pic

Speaking of beds, WstbxH wanted a bed (we had 3). I said no - one bed is a 4-poster that was my parents and my mom is still alive and would kill me, the second was one I had just bought specially made by the menonites and stained myself to go in my DS's room (he took his when he moved out) and the third was our bed - and there was no way OW was going to sleep in MY bed. So he took the futon out of the basement.
It came back 3 days later because she hated it!!!!
