I love LOVE your Skank Fever def! I agree TH re the womans perspective in a A. Its in the same category as Organic Fruit / SuperFoods vs McDonalds!! Along with the hardened heart and nasty attitude. Im not surprised that everyone here has had the same physical symptoms and yet none of our spouses seem to think they have anything to do with it. Three weeks later he wants a D. Doesnt love me !! It most likely would not have changed a thing. He said NO. It makes me wary that H is just cashing out his chips (my accountant said that!!) He might need to put some more space and distance away from the A to make it all ok again and as TFW says it has to be his idea to R. ShiftingImps, I already said Postnup and MC are my conditions, he became angry when I said that. TryingHard and TheFirstWife have been spot on. Her double life is working for her. Mine seems to be digging a hole to China! The words just jump out at me. Good. H blew me off and canceled the first meeting (dont ask). If H wants out, H will have to pony up himself. Like, as they are leveling no consequences on my H for his actions against me and the M it follows that he would have likely had no consequences ever growing up. He said it is like climbing Mount Everest. That could be tricky. Thank you again for hanging in with me today, everything you say is so helpful x, Turning 50 All alone and in shock I got up and made the brilliant decision to drive sround the local hotels looking for him. I said Nope, not going to happen. Id be damned. All You Wanted to Know About Spousal Abandonment Syndrome From https://www.marriage.com/advice/counseling/know-about-spousal-abandonment-syndrome/, Martinez-Lewi, Linda, PhD. Please continue to take care of yourself. Rollercoaster ride is the perfect example of life during this time. OAR = Ownership / Accountability / Responsibility > above the line thinking I think there is a little boy in a lot of grown men and so many of them only behave when they know that mommy can sometimes be scary. Not a sad sausage to her, just to me!! Yeah pretty sure that gave both him and his lawyer a very bad case of diarrhea. Satori. Im very lonely. My H could play golf when he wanted and do things with his friends and I made sure he had time away from kids (as did I). I am a brazilian 59 yo man. Rinse. I feel bad. Talk about red flags!!! And this is what she did for the 4th time! Im almost past caring what he is saying to his FOO. If Switzerland did not exist, much of the damage could have either been stopped in its tracks and reversed or minimised. Please pray for my son, hes starting to go through his mourning process in regards to his mother. Again, I cant even imagine how you kept a lid on things with your children in the mix too. I could keep going on but its beginning to depress me thinking about the crap she said to me!! It is associated with an anxious and suspicious nature, when she (he), due to personal and social reasons, is afraid to marry. I know because one of her family members told me. He really tries his best but its a slow process getting through this. You have to ignore it and let your lawyer do your talking. "I call it the runaway bride syndrome; that's where business owner, at the end of the day, isn't really ready to sell," he says. But since your divorce is long from being final for now hes still the enemy and thats ok. Do things on your timeline not anyone elses. They are pretty much one person (I swear). Notify me of followup comments via e-mail. Yes to all of them. Between that and my trip, I feel like it would be a very good thing. That one is in need of a deep-brain psychological evaluation to determine if they are a threat to society. We have all suffered physical symptoms from being the BS. It doesnt appear he will change his path. Clearly she has issues in understanding respect and M. Im sorry but not to give you a PW to a bank account is total manipulative behavior and abuse. I was going forward with the divorce and as a matter of fact I was going out that night 3 1/2 months later and find a man like hed been telling me to for weeks. Now Im having them every second night (that is, when I do get to sleep). A couple of people have said she is trying to set me up to leave so she does not have to feel guilty doing it herself. I think I will always have PTSD surrounding that issue. I gave myself a personal deadline for a decision of around now but there seems to be no progress or improvement in his attitude. And his choices went to the OW more often than it should have. So go ahead and scare her anyway you can with your lawyer. Im glad you are taking care of you but I love reading your posts. Im sure you are right with your prediction, but the revisionist history is what is upsetting the most and that would be a huge stumbling block to any future R. It is scary but God will give you the strength and courage. True story TFW. Stay away from him. So no I am not apologizing for my salty words. Her actions and behavior were so out of whack from who she was for the previous 25 years of knowing her (we met in college, didnt start dating until our senior year, then married 2 years later). On another note I discovered H has a secret phone before I flew out. Give me just enough info hoping Id throw him to the curb. The betrayed spouse cannot even comprehend what happened. And that is a horrible thing to experience. Grief is NOT something that can be rushed. You get ready for battle Satori. A or no A he is incapable of seeing the destruction he caused b/c he is only focused on himself and what he wants. Get out of town. But it was a ruse. I know that. It is good to hear your survival story TFW, the flip flopping of your H mirrors what mine is doing. Me: You dont seem happy at all. That means get the fucking business essentials in writing and then move on to the personal stuff. She said she needed a drink and she doesnt drink!!! Wish you the best and I do believe you reap what you sow. My wife threw out some complete garbage at me. Finally, you must treat yourself gently during this process. (Hes not my friend anymore). Again. So much grief for her, for you its the worst. In some places in the world, this penalty (very wrongly and cruelly) still stands. Ie gaslighting/projection STILL). I dont know what would have happened to my well being if he had not. In trying to rationalize his A my husband told me about a week before he asked for a D that a lot of guys would want to date me b/c I still look young and am in great shape. You dont deserve any of this. Even might answer the what have I done? question for him. I doubt it would have changed the outcome but it might have enabled me to cope better. STOP DOING THAT. Does it ever? I was proud of myself. It also sounds a lot like how abandoned spouses describe their runaway spouse. Yep driving across boring Kansas I literally screamed. Thanks for the heads up! You are gorgeous ShiftingImps. But there were no options left and D was the only solution. I will never excuse her actions towards me. Each time, that I kind of got my head around (or tried to get my head around) one aspect of the situation another new piece of critical info would land and further obliterate me. I only read this blog, Betrayed Wives Club ame Chumplady (her moto is dump a cheater gain a life so read at your own risk). Seriously, just give it a miss. I still have a lot of things inside me that dont just want to go away. LOL he actually quit playing so much golf and when he did he did it under 4 hours!!! I am calling this post The Runaway Spouse Syndrome because this is not necessarily a gender-specific phenomenon. It was actually good to read through and see how far we have come. As well as other peoples well meaning if completely superficial responses to what theyre prefer we did (e.g. That if PILs really are coming from a genuine authentic space they can influence in a positive way. Its not a D as we have to wait a year for that due to our laws. LOL but seriously wtf. He is acting like a child. Just sayin. In fact, a suicide would have at least brought some kind of closure in the sense that all of the children would know where their mother was and still have an untarnished image of their mother. There is no respect if the affair is still in going. So there is new info here the mess he created between his parents and you. But I also had to sort out A LOT too. It was a choice he made a poor one and he got caught up in the emotional side and it overtook him. I find it so unfathomable that you can be married and at the end of 15 years you still want or need to please / fit in with what your parents think more than your wife!! I cant go through the final disappointment over and over. Dont throw the baby out with the bathwater, so to speak . I just want to move on.dont they all use that one. Of course H blames you. Dont give them anything. In any case you cant play tennis by yourself so if it wasnt for all you guys rallying to help me actually make it through another day at the coalface none of it would happen. Id give it a couple weeks. I did notice that youd gone kinda silent but I thought maybe you werent in the mood to talk. Smh!! Its been a lot of tears this past 24 hours. I get that. 3. How dare he trash the magic of us, and all that was precious then say he doesnt want to save the M as HE did too much damage! Its gong to be tough tough tough, but I am very determined. We have all been dealt the brutal blow of infidelity obviously some stories are worse than others. No one around me gets it. If you are in this situation and especially have kids, the advice I offer is to distance yourself immediately from your significant other. That actually really shows me my instincts on this are correct. She wasnt sure how she felt. xx. Lots more. LOL. Its a long road for this sometimes. I actually didnt find this site or any other until about 2 years after DDay maybe more. He said his greatest hope was to spend the rest of his days building our connection and future. It could be MLC affair / Exit Affair or just Runaway Husband but It seems to have elements of all three. JTK you have a voice and say in this. My problem was not (so much) that my fiance left with another woman, BUT that our common friends (not my friends anymore), thought that I should grow up and get over it. You are going to have to list all expenses and assets. I could tell he truly believes some of the things he is saying even though they are wrong, but with time I hope he sees the light in that regard. The bible also says God helps those who help themselves. What can you do with that? Long and amazing though. Thats why GoldenCHild was AOK in our books to deceive Satori on every imaginable level as he would have been unable to deal with her otherwise. You must force yourself to eat food and to hydrate with water. Or is my situation too far gone so he will keep going do you think? So now I stay out of it. I know it hurts and I am very sorry. Stay strong and take care of you. It's one thing "love to the grave" in a free "flight", because no one really owes anything to anyone. TH: 9 months prior to DDay I screamed I wanted a divorce he was making me miserable. Other times I wonder if I was projecting all my own values onto him. As you suggest, I will not talk about the R/D situation and just chat about other stuff. So thats fair game! I have been an amazing wife. There in lies the bigger question?? They are all very shocked by my H. No one can believe how he is acting out. But none of this is for me to judge. DO NOT READ ANY FURTHER IF YOU ARE OFFENDED BY SWEAR WORDS!!!!!!! Runaway Bride r en amerikansk romantisk komedi frn 1999 med Julia Roberts och Richard Gere i huvudrollerna. Sounds like narcissistic abuse And manipulation from what you shared. TheFirstWife. One day, just 3 days after he left (and this was before I found out about the affair!) They chose to be less than not you. It was more like not allowing her in the group. FIL is now spinning the narrative that things were bad between us long before the A. Not only that, as he was always doing the wrong thing but she had made him so it was time to bail. In all honesty.should he choose to reconcile, thats when the hard work really begins. Honestly it feels unsurvivable but you guys are all proof that this terrible thing can be borne and offer the hope that R is possible. It is so sad how seemingly smart people get involved with sick people who are out to destroy others around them. It was 4 weeks of HELL before he left our house. I dont get the ghosting thing. Now its time to focus in you. I had a rubber mallet in my car. Unmarried at 30, she decided to marry a man 30 years her senior who was fresh off the boat from the Tuscan village of Lucca, Italy. I am just going to get through it. Heck no!! Thats when I left for Colarado. Lol ask me how I know ???? I wouldnt mention it if it was a non profit thing but Im pretty sure its a commercially beneficial situation. From that moment on, his personality changed. Ive had some of my hardest days this week since this whole mess began. And yes my H did that for years until I told him during MC that WE were not disconnected HE was and to stop putting the blame on me. We are still here for you and I hope you are doing well.

Milli, He did this not you. And yes, my Dad is a class act. Um yeah that didnt turn out so good for him . Very odd. Its similar to when I went NC and just unavailable. You can call it what you want. But the revisionist history of your M is done only to justify his A and subsequent behavior. You great casual friends with a cheek kiss!! Looking forward to that moment though, gotta say. Betrayal is hard to handle. My sister took a photo of my H and I at the end of a two week vacation in one of the most beautiful places in the world in January. Anyhow, just wanted to let you know how it is going in the trenches,,. Satori thinks shes unique in this craziness and we know shes not. LOL. I am in better spirits, thanks. You will always wonder if it will happen again. You have you fighting for the M and business. They are believing all of his garbage that he is spewing out. The past and their BS are simple casualties of their selfish egos. The hydrangea Runaway Bride has received accolades as the plant of the year for 2018 at the RHS Flower Show.

Now I understand there are psychological issues associated with Hoarders. Now these guys are all married and with kids etc so I never worried, but the fact is he had so much freedom to hang out with buddies at will, drinking, going on boys trips etc. But I actually think H prefers it when he doesnt hear from me as it underscores the new narrative that I dont exist to him now.
