Had to call my H tonight about some financial situations (more bills that haven't been paid)--and I got his answering machine at his new apartment.<p>Guess who he has doing the message because they weren't home. The b****!!! Can you believe that. He wanted me to call using that phone. Either he is really stupid....or I am gullible. Why would he allow her to do that. What a jerk.<p>Ughhhhhhh...I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO disgusted with him. I did leave a recording tho. Our cable was disconnected tonight...the kids were upset, a dept store called and wanted payement and GMAC called and wanted payment......I told the southern sounding you know what that this was Patty...you know....Jim's wife. Then I told about the bills and ended with...Love you Jim. This might be fun after all. Night everyone!!

Hi MnM well your H never ceases to amaze me so I can imagine how disgusted you really are. What's with the games he plays? He probably knew it would get a reaction out of you. When he does call you back act as though it doesn't bother you at all don't even mention her on the message. What a jerk! Sorry you are continually going through this crap it will get better. You've made so much progress. To bad he can't see what he is losing. He will and he will regret it immensely.
Hugs and prayers,
C

Hi mnm, Is there a chance that OW did that without your H's knowledge, you know, behind his back to annoy you on purpose?<p>Maybe just wait to hear his explanation and see what he has to say? HOPEFULLY he didn't even know she did that and it will be a big LB on OW's part...

Dear mis,<p>He is a jerk! An irresponsible one at that. I'm so sorry that he hurt your feelings. Maybe he thinks it's cute or wants to advertise that he has some one. After all, isn't the universe all about him?<p>Don't let it get you. Karma is always watching.

Wow how upsetting to hear OW's voice on your H"s answering machine- I would be totally ticked off! I once called OW's number at the office (she worked with H until she took a job transfer to another state) and she left her voicemail message on for weeks afterward- her breathy pathetic voice made me want to SCREAM- which I did at my H!!! He kept assuring me she had really moved and had just left her voicemail for those who couldnt find her yet! H and I ended up getting in a huge fight over whether she had truly left town or not. By then I didnt believe a thing he told me after being lied to so much. Is your H's voice on YOUR home answering machine still? If so be sure to erase it and put in a new message with YOUR voice on it. That just might surprise him when HE calls you next! lifeismessy

MnM,<p>My STBX had barely moved in with the OW than she changed her message to say this is OW's * STBX's. Of course it could had been that way all along, as he was paying the bills.<p>I never call. I leave messages on his voicemail for his cell phone or email. I will only call thier place when she is at work.<p>STBX was traveling for businees & I demanded phone #'s, cause I told him I would never go through OW if I needed to get in touch with him.
