Lots of waywards use something that is clearly true to cover up something you suspect is a lie.

Bump

Because some of you seem to want to recover with good feelings only.

A Care Bear Stare(tm) doesn't work on your marriage. The program does.


And it begins with learning that WAYWARDS LIE.


One year becomes two, two years becomes five, five becomes ten and before you know it, you've wasted your whole life on a problem you can't solve. That's one way to spend your life. -rwinger

I will not spend my life this way.

Just re-read this again - it is so good to remind yourself every now and then what we are dealing with.

Waywards lie about everything. And they will continue to lie when presented with evidence that any sane person would think would shock them into an admission. The lies just pile up: lies upon lies upon lies. And if they can't think of a lie in answer to your question, they just look at you blankly until you give up.

This is why Dr Harley says not to spend time thinking about what a wayward does or says. It makes no sense and will drive you crazy.

Just be sure to protect yourself. For assets that are now in his name, do not expect him to comply with the divorce decree and divide them. Best way to protect yourself is to have a matching set of assets in your own name.

No need to ask how I know this :-(

Divorced - he was a serial adulterer

Living Well this is such good advice for all BSs. I am working on getting a court order to freeze our marital assets now.....but it is going to take work to get it enforced across three african countries frown
