Okay ,
Been following this and have to add my two bits.
I'll keep it short, with just a question.

BO, why are you in a MB forum?

Marriage is the relationship most of us here are striving for.

You seem to disrespect marriage so completely. Just makes me wonder why you're here at all.

"2long...i think your enjoying this childish behavior,"

Most definitely! Keep it coming!

"so i wont be adressing you anymore"

2bad. It was kind of fun.

"you have enough problems with YOUR CHEATING WIFE!!!"

Cute. The yelling part. Was it good for you?

"hmmm....i wonder what your missing!!!!!"

I'm missing YOU! I keep shooting, but you keep dodging the bullets! (ac2ally, they're cowpies)

"this is all too simple.....Man cheats....Man is the problem"

Excuse me? I assume that, as a psychologist with a Masters, you mean "man" in the "mankind" sense? Probably not, though.

"just said that MMs are out there looking for either sex or attention or frienship or or or or etc.......everyone is different....everyone is looking for something different..."

There ain't nothing wrong with looking for something different. But there may be something wrong with WHERE or from WHOM they're seeking it.

"my relationship with XMM was not soley based on sex.. we became good friends, i met his mom, his family and friends.....i am still friends with them.....his brother called me just last week to see how i'm doing....that's O.K....doesn't mean i want him and the relationship back.....only means i was worthy enough as person for his family and friends to see how i'm doing and to care enough about my feelings.....and that makes me feel good.....anything wrong with that??? "

I applaud THEM for treating you with respect and caring about you. I continue 2 feel sorry for you in not being able 2 recognize that it takes 2 2 tango. You both tangoed, therefore you BOTH cheated. QED

Well, i finally read something that makes sense <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" /> .......go read "REASONS WHY I WANT TO THANK OW" (minus the nasty name calling) in RECOVERY....now that's what i'm talking about <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="images/icons/cool.gif" />
my XMM was totally confused until i took care of business for him.....now he's not confused anymore.....hopefully...

On a more serious note...... MM confides in OW, do things with OW that they don't do with wife anymore..... OW is in (ow shares secret with MM) Wife is out.....when wife learns about affair......OW is out WIFE is in......now its the wife thats sharing secrets with him again about affair...... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" /> Right or wrong?

BO,

One other question. You say you are so very happy, yet your comments to people that respond to you at times are hateful. eg. referring to KalGirl as "Call Girl".

There's no reason for that at all. You yourself said you don't appreciate name calling. Neither do I.

You must know many of your statements have inflamed others here.

Once again, what are you really looking to get out of posting here?

BO-
It is quite obvious that you are still in alot of pain. I think way deep down, you know that you played a major role in this picture. If you really felt as strongly as you're presenting yourself, you would NOT be HERE, spending all this time, defending your situation to a bunch of strangers.

I hope that eventually, you can get past this and find your self respect. It's not about "who's problem it is," it's about respecting yourself and your choices. I'm not trying to cause further pain for you, I'm just trying to help you see yourself from another light.

Take care!!

Anny

"Since i have posted here i have read maybe 4 or 5 comments that made any sense.....of course none of which came from 2long"

Of course!

"but i can't understand why an OW should lose sleep over a man's wife she doesn't even know"

We've noticed this about you. It's kind of like the "cowboy birth control" joke: You believe that out of sight, out of mind. It's therefore not you're problem. But since you make YOURSELF the problem in your MM's R, it is very definitely something anyone with a conscience would and SHOULD lose sleep over.

".....isn't he responsible for cheating,"

Yes.

"shouldn't HE lose sleep over his wife"

Yes.

"not all OW want the MM to divorce the family"

For obvious reasons. No responsibility.

Plan A is ridiculous..........what to do when you find out your man is cheating.......on the spot its her or me......if he chooses her, he will probably regret it.....we KNOW the odds of that relationship working....he will probably choose to stay......SIMPLE......if he's smart and you're a good woman.. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />

You may have something there.

This has probably gone on long enough (2long?). When I come across these kinds of posts, my initial response, if I post at all, is 2 try and find out if there's a "spark" of a sincere desire 2 learn from past mistakes. Usually, if there is, the person changes their tune from one of anger and antagonism 2 one that shows an honest desire 2 be constructive - both 2 their own predicament and 2 that of others.

bo is clearly not one of these people.

Years ago, I was involved in a special interest newsgroup that had posters like this one turn up from time 2 time. One of them 2k a fancy 2 criticising me in particular. Same kind of thing - making fun of my PhD. Well, said person claimed also 2 have one. Well, so what? S2pid people get promoted or even elected 2 all kinds of lofty positions (I won't mention any politicians' names, but you get what I mean), and even have advanced degrees. How did I respond? Pretty much like I did here, when I responded at all. Trying 2 answer the questions that just maybe possibly, MIGHT be legitimate, and being sarcastic about the rest. One of the "beauties" of the internet may be that it's possible for people like this 2 turn up and poke around for a while, 2 be sure, but even2ally they all go away out of sheer boredom.

BO's mom will likely enroll her in kindergarten one of these days, and she'll be 2 busy or distracted 2 post anymore.

OR: One of the moderators could come along and ban her/him/it from the boards and close this thread.

We can only hope, not expect. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />

BO - from your recent post:

</font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> Sorry to disappoint you but i am not in deeeeep pain </font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">From your first post on this thread:

</font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> i know it seems decietful to pretend to be the wife, but i'm really just trying to understand......why should he (MM) get away with this <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="images/icons/mad.gif" /> </font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Your pain is pretty obvious to me, and I don't even have a Masters degree. Perhaps you should try to deal with it in a more constructive manner. Isn't that something a psychologist would suggest?

I hope you find some peace soon.

2Long,
Just drove me nuts, all these personalities. Then the latest one joining today and posting directly to this thread. On their first post. Imagine the odds of that.

Nothing fits at all.

BTW, were you really wearing THOSE shoes at your commencement? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" />

if anyone finds this poster as offensive as i have, they should notify the moderators. after reading the earlier thread by mosana, i brought it to the attention of tempest and it was locked by next day. since they can't monitor the whole board all the time, it's up to members to police it themselves! let them know!
