Maybe I should ask the Family Lawyer I am trying to make an appt for (to protect me if he leaves me like he wanted to.)

Telling the truth is not slanderous. WSs may throw that around but it is hot air. Anyone can sue you for anything...doesn't mean they have a leg to stand on. Anyone who says such things is bluffing and hopes a BS backs down...they are running scared. An OP's BS may even use this tactic to get you to shut up...keep standing.

I had to deal with a OW and even her BH hollering about legal action...they shut up real quick when I told them to knock themselves out...I couldn't wait to have all the dirty laundry aired in court...and for it to live on in public records. grin OW's BH was a WS himself. Bottom line, they backed down because they knew they would sound/look like complete morons. It's all huff and puff IMO.

Many a good man has failed because he had a wishbone where his backbone should have been.

We gain strength, and courage, and confidence by each experience in which we really stop to look fear in the face... we must do that which we think we cannot.

The OW in my sitch threatened to sue me and I just laughed. She actually called me, thinking she was going to get me to back down from telling her husband. Needless to say, I didn't and she certainly never sued me.

I had to laugh at the thought of all of the phone records and texts being subpoenaed. I would love to see the texts myself!

OK, so now I just need to figure out how to do it. Phone or mail or email or FB. And I'll just go for her parents right now.

Both my OWs threatened to sue me, and I replied, go right ahead, I will subpoena your records, all the more fuel for me, I would love it!

Of course neither did. WH on the other hand in his affidavit told me to stop causing him embarrassment in the family and community with my 'salacious' material. The judge did not grant him that.

A man who abandons his wife and children because of his infidelity is no price. I can do better then that, I deserve better then that.

The difficulties and struggles of today are but the price we must pay for the accomplishments and victories of tomorrow

Men must be honest with themselves before they can be honest with others. A man who is not honest with himself presents a hopeless case
