You owe it to your M to at least try. That is all. You listen to your red flags. But beneath the mask of a shy, vulnerable and good person something far more sinister lurks. You can call it what you want. I hope your H at least has one sane rational person in his life. I replied that was insulting to me, given how much freedom he has always had. Puzzled YES to the crap that was dragged up from the past. The worst part is he keeps making them. My son and I will become stronger from this. Bride and groom had signed off on every contract and was fully prepared to tie the knot. I never spoke to my MIL again about my wifes affair, which began my silent suffering. And now that his family is filling his head with all these allegations and rewriting history he doesnt have the backbone to stand up for what he wants. I said whats wrong are you ill? In your case since he claims you are controlling then if you help him he could end up resenting you further. I woke up this morning and thought, thats it, Im out. thst could have been worse for you and her in her eyes. Absolutely mind boggling, but so to the script thats in the Cheaters Handbook! In the end he either gives up the OW and works on reconciling with you or there will be a divorce, right? Just cant believe that people who stood there while we said our vows would not at least urge their son to suck it up and do the right thing by me. Reel me back in.

It may be a temporary response to a stressful situation. Some people get caught up in the MLC in bad ways. At DDay2 I was furious and stopped playing the kind supportive wife. 50-50! It is his oen family. Thanks for the support. I would also suggest, if you are interested in learning about narcissism and sociopathy, are the books In Sheeps Clothing and The Sociopath Next Door. So I think every BS will attest the H becomes someone unrecognizable. you had to keep it together. I had about a 20 minute rampage and then. It was a bit of the worm turning moment for me but I needed confirmation. But there must be a bunch of things running that he has kept hidden from me, to have engaged in an exit affair and to be a runaway as well. I believe if you and Doug and Linda didnt want swearing on their site theyd have said so long ago. We have all been there. Just goes to show you his warped thought process during the A. Do their husbands know? His choice. Heres the thing I have learned, FWIW. (My post of 8/12 suggested she may still be around). We get through it with work and fortitude and determination and hope but you dont.get.over.it. But its an even bigger commitment from your H if he wants to save your marriage. They are pretty much one person (I swear). That would account for the I would but I cant statement he confusingly gave me re: trying again in the M. And he is still blaming me for everything. Im working on getting more sleep. This apple didnt even have to fall. Im going to call my brother today and lay that down the line! Your h has done this. Anyway its coincidental that indeed it was HER words that have driven you away. But I get not all M last. If you do think R is in the table then reach out again to meet. So I woukd disengage. As you can read in the thread Ive been away and feeling a lot better. OR D-day 1 of ILYBNILWY was March 2015. I agree that he is not the guy I thought he was. I take it you are not in the US? None of my friends do. This monster was icy-cold, this monster was yelling that I needed to move out, this monster was throwing things and saying cruel things. My H wishes he had done the same. My family was around at the time of her visit, so basically she got a warm if measured reception by other family members. But sometimes people see dead people too . I was terrified to get up in the morning. [11] It came with a small towel, to put over the doll's head, to model how she appeared on TV when in the custody of Albuquerque Police. ShiftingImps But certainly not if its agaunst your layers recommendations. I run our business from home and online so I can go days without seeing anyone if I dont need to as all our employees work across locations. Which LOL he tried to cut off but couldnt because they were in my name!!! I dont know about anything anymore. I dont really feel we are disregarding anyone. Unlike you, my H is only feeling entitled. I just dont know what the point is of fighting to be with someone who is so fixed in their decision not to save us. Old or young. But for so many there are no warnings or red flags. A puppet. That if PILs really are coming from a genuine authentic space they can influence in a positive way. They let me go without even looking at my drivers license!! No desire to be in M. Zero care factor for me personally. But, so as not to create a difficult atmosphere, I would simply drop the issue. I called my son and by now the sun was just coming up. As a typical cheater he blames you for it. ! My response was Why didnt you just tell me in plain English. I could not stop. It is difficult to settle on love when seductive alternatives are all around. And no business can risk having an uninterested party involved for a year. Forgiveness is for you to heal and move forward. But I found the heck out of infidelity books on Amazon! For whatever reason, our spouses didnt say no. O.M.G their intention, good or otherwise, is NOT the point. All I got was nastiness from him. As to MY f bombs I have NEVER directed them at anyone personally.

So I picked up the phone and called the OW and she spilled the beans. I also had to move into my parents new house and sleep in the guest room. Almost 4 months was enough for me. Hopefully the reality check will flush out a breakthrough. It is not my job to make him happy. Im not going to let him. Im just holding on to the beautiful experiences I HAD in the M even though H wants to rewrite the marital history as if that was all my illusion and really it was flat out misery. And he is struggling with that as a concept (that I will go for more). I am the husband who was abandoned by a wayward wife. I am sick to my stomach at the prospect. I did think what he did was terribly rude and selfish, an so did our common friends, but they obviously thought that shit happens and you have to get over it, and put the burden to show that I had gotten over it by being friends with my ex and his new girlfriend! Yes she does need prayer. Slow progress but it is still progress. I want this site to be a place where people can speak their own truth and feel safe and where they can communicate and be themselves. Hes like the little fat third grader doing anything to get attention. You have done more for me than you realize. WOW. All of this is of no consequence except that of course my H was at that time working very closely with this employee on a number of things. At home I gathered his clothes and shoes and threw them on the driveway. More faith, more hope and love..less fear, anger, substances (chemicals, affecting feeling, thinking, behavior..legal or not Idc, are they healthy and safe? My name is Satori and my husband had an affair. But he went to bat for me.it meant everything. Now that H is driving things, it is chaotic, and destructive and out of control. Hi Satori 3.She understood me.like no one ever had..right!!! I got a therapist immediately saw her for a month and then stopped seeing her as I honestly couldnt take the how did that make you feel anymore. Likely on both sides..love is patient, kindetc. Im not sure where this is going but if the docs are not signed by mid Sept, then its a whole new ball game. I had hoped my H might snap out of it too. Dont add to the drama. I can speculate it has to do with his childhood, suppression of emotions, and not wanting to face his problems, but these are only pieces. Lean on the those that love you and are trustworthy. It appears he has the perfect teacher his mother. You can always choose to R at any point if you think he really means it. Betrayed Spouses often look back at D-day and think of all the things they did wrong and how they could have handled it differently but they are in SHOCK for heaven sake. TheFirstWife. Hi Puzzled, My husband broke my heart but rest assured he did NOT break my spine. I need it to stay afloat as its my income until everything gets sorted. I wish you the best. I felt quite weak. Howard Kurtz, an influential media critic for The Washington Post and CNN-TV, and Fox News wrote that the runaway bride had become a "runaway television embarrassment", comparing the story to a TV soap opera.[2].

I dont think Ive ever sworn so much or so creatively in my life. Thanks again for your responses and wonderful support. On to the next leg, Ill tune in again when I next get to civilisation. But the internet is no place to be so sensitive. We are becoming empty nesters. It was like that for me after my H got back from his trip where he began the PA. He started calling me darling and babe again!!! My therapist told me that he has seen more mid life crises ruin lives and fsmilies more than anything. Im pretty sure Im the one who was just fucked over!!). There was no premeditation to my actions. He knows it. Gotten tattoos The most glaring way is that the wayward spouse leaves the family home and cuts all ties with the betrayed spouse and the children.

I am very anti-drugs and we as a couple have never done that in our M. I wont socialise with the friends of his who do it.

No, he said, we have to talk. . She would just smile and listen. ???????? Thank you again for hanging in with me today, everything you say is so helpful x, Turning 50 Its an absolute lifeline. Culture is exactly opposite of this philosophy. He walked out of the room and I followed him into the hallway where my rage suddenly hit me!! Even in a case where someone like my H claims he wants the OW so that he can have someone to treat with disrespect, their pride in their relationship with us is based on treating us with respect. they cant reconcile his actions with who they thought he was. Didnt care about a D despite having kids. TryingHard, thats some homecoming you describe!! I am his wife. People want different things in life. So you cant sue a spouse for adultery but it can come in to the facts of the case. My lawyer was champing at the bit to do it. I looked at him and told him not interested. It doesnt appear he will change his path. Lol. If he wants sorting out thats his choice. LOL. In a sense, she is using her husband until breaking up is convenient for her. The reasons for having an affair when coming out of the mouths of cheaters are numerous and all diversion or projecting. When we loose a loved one or are facing serious health problems there is often much sympathy sent our way. I hope you have something nice to look forward to again, once some more time passes. The trip has been great and also at times difficult but generally I feel better at a distance! Because that is what they have set in motion. At least 50 percent of all people getting married get a case of either cold feet or seem to have feet that want to run away from the altar. When they hit me, you were on my mind. Nothing too scary yet. But if his lips are moving he is lying. Busy before and busy when you get home. Well found my anger again for real and good this time after my first intial shock anger of DDay evening. When I met my H I was very independent, but 15 years with someone does blur boundaries. I dont know what country you are in and I am hoping its a country that is friendly to women getting what due them. Which he did because the alternative was going to be all out war and scorched earth. I am refusing to tell him / show him as I feel this is the part of his growth and as far as Im concerned he truly has to step up on his own. And that is a horrible thing to experience. Hi ShiftingImpressions. Then along comes Mr. Wehavetotalk Well I cleaned up what I had done put everything away and told him YOU get someone here NOW to finish this stripping and painting.

This is a bad sign, it promises an early separation. Im not sure what you are waiting on. We cant do a lot but we will be good listeners and give any helpful advice we can. Well I knew a little bit about addiction as far as alcohol and drugs and what happened there. Im like: the whole point of being married is so you DONT HAVE TO FIND SOMEONE ELSE!!!. Isnt that having faith? Are there assets to be liquidated or is it all intellectual property? Yup, they are full of it when in the middle of it, Oh and also when he yelled go find someone to date!!! I hope you also expressed that R is still on the table but you cant do it by yourself and that he is being quite uncooperative at the moment. But the tune changes as soon as he has been in touch with OW and then he comes to see me again. My guess is he will go. She would say things to me just to hurt me. But also at least you might have gained a sense of closure. So its naked ambition literally and metaphorically. Ok. We start MC. Now having been cheated on Im having the story of my life re-written by people who do not have my interests at heart. You are a remarkable women. However, as the wedding day draws closer and closer, their hesitations become greater and more urgent. I feel ambivalent actually. I went to an attorney right away. You are right, it IS a limbo state. After all I had been married 10 years to her. Once I stopped one day it occurred to me that Id forgiven him and even somewhat the OW. One thing Ive learned is people fail each other all the time but He never fails. The things they do! Puzzled. Ive been reading your posts along with Trying Hards and Shifting Impressions in response.

One of hers and my mutual friends just couldnt understand why after 3 months she was still crying? Personally, ones FOO issues is for THEM to figure out not the spouse. I found I had to tap into my anger to keep from falling apart, if that makes sense. Theyre all bull shit. It felt manipulative and not genuine. Because even we love them and we want the marriage to continue, they know they have done such awful things to us that they cannot believe we can still love them. Thank you as ever for your amazing empathy and insights (and you too TryingHard). Make friends who will lift you up, not bring you down. Thats sad for him.

He didnt want me guilt tripping him. I admit I wanted to throw in the towel. We started MC the first of June but he was still lying and fence sitting.

BLEW up. But he knew I meant business. Because I dont believe and have experienced that grief is indeed NOT linear. No way. I was happily in my own space doing something to improve our home. Ive found there are some posts I read thoroughly while others not so much. I turned over filing cabinets. I burst into tears at random. I heard that I was too strong too and yes it is code for bitch. I guess he never thought to share that with me (or seek help for it). I should read it again because one never knows. She lied. The first reason has to do with a general tendency in the bride that does not merely relate to the wedding; the second reason refers to the bride's fear of being in a committed relationship; and the third refers to the bride's perception of or feelings for the groom himself. And maybe thats exactly what I should have done instead. An hour later they come and present the same thought like it was their own iriginal thought. Hi Satori We know what most people will choose given the choice. Ditto TFW to your list exactly!! Things changed for him just before DDay2. Told him to leave.
