Cheater or Child? Who Said It Best?

birthdaypartyToday’s Fun Friday challenge came from FreeVixen, who suggested a contest in which you compare a cheater utterance with something a child might say, and award a winner.

For example:

In the category of “You’re Not Invited to My Birthday Party!” the contestants are Martin, a surly 5 year old, and Amos, a 52-year old accounting rep.

When Dylan took back the Hot Wheels car toy from Martin, (who never takes turns!), Martin uninvited him to all present and future birthday parties. (Dylan responded by repo-ing the Hot Wheels car with a swift kick to Martin’s shins.)

(applause!)

Amos, the accounting rep, did not invite his wife of 23 years, Janice to his birthday party. Despite the fact that Janice had made reservations at a very nice restaurant and bought him silver cufflinks, Amos made other plans to spend the day in Atlantic City with his mistress Twinkie.

Confronted later with a used bus ticket, (that was not to the underwriting conference in Muncie) Amos exclaimed that Janice was not INVITED to his birthday.

Do we have a winner?

Other categories are “You’re not the boss of me!” “Nanner-nanner boo boo!” and “Because I WANT IT!”

Feel free to add your own…

When my stbxh discarded me after 34 years of marriage(that included many trips cars motorcycles,cottage,house in Florida etc that we couldn’t afford), he said “I just wanna have fun” stomp of his little foot imagined….

My cheater said to me: if we were having more fun, I never would’ve cheated. He’s a serial cheater that started cheating on me the week we moved in together. I guess we never had any fun…

My X and I had just been to a funeral with Miss Twinkletwat and their bunch of fucknuts.

We drove 2 hours home only for him to want to turn around and drive 4 hours away for her Birthday party. He knew I didn’t want to go – so it was his chance to go by himself.

I said no, we had a long day. We were in the church parking lot as we lived in the rectory. He was in his clerical clothes ( white collar and all).

He started jumping up and down clenching his fists and saying that he never got to do what he wanted to do.
Then he screamed all red in the face ” I never got to be a fireman!”

Yup. 7 years of education while my kids were little and moving to a strange city away from family and friends to hear that. I want to be a unicorn but you know – I live in reality.

He never did change careers, I’m just imagining how it would have gone down. I bet his OW was encouraging and telling him that he should do whatever made him happy. Now that they have a child on the way and a shared rent payment, I bet she feels a little differently. On the plus side, now SHE gets to be the new Crusher of Dreams and Happiness, which he thought was a title only I could hold.

He was just wanting to “bring about a new energy to the marriage”, and surely her wanting to see the new house is simply “an expression of yearning and loss.” and what Steven Mitchell dubs an “act of exuberant defiance.”

I was in mentally in shock and caught up in the “unreasonable” notion that he took his marriage vows seriously. I was willing to forgive a mistake, but I made the faulty assumption that he thought he made one. I thought he would drop Trashley like a hot potato to fight for our family, to try to make things better because we were worth it. I made the mistake of thinking I mattered to him. It took me about 6 months to see the light.

I too remember thinking X valued our marriage as much as I did and this would pass as it was only an error in judgment. We had so many memories, and shared so much over the years.
I thought X was a devoted family man.
I found CN and now realize X isn’t anything like the person I thought I married.
Funny, X would laugh at anyone dating or marrying anyone 20 younger than them, saying they wouldn’t have anything in common, how ridiculous it looked, these girls were young enough to be his daughter.., what would they talk about? blah, blah.
Well, guess who has a GF 20 years younger and young enough to be his daughter.., he claims they have so much more in common than he and I ever did.
Our 20 year marriage, life together meant absolutely nothing to him.

same mistake i made. i made the mistake that he loved me and realized that we had a good thing, 14 years of me standing by his side thru all his “mistakes”, keeping the house and the family going while he felt sorry for himself, filling out his applications for yet another job because he hated the job he was in, making sure all the bills were paid so he could run around and spend money foolishly,…. … ..

and the biggest mistake was thinking he would FIGHT for me and the boys.

Meadowlands – I remember that shock stage well. And the thought that he’d realize he’d made a giant mistake. I thought I’d meant to him what he meant to me — and I was dead wrong.

Even this morning (one year post the final D-Day), I was sitting in the same row as him during our son’s piano recital. One of the other kids played a song we both used to love and without thinking, I looked over at him and we both smiled. I quickly looked away, about to cry, and reminded myself that HE’S NOT WHO I THOUGHT HE WAS. He’s the guy who just last night, when I was dropping the kids off, was sneaking some fat-assed twenty-something hoochie-mama (he’s in his forties) out the other door of his apartment.

Meadowlands – it’s horrible to realize that these people dabble in love. It’s a peripheral thing to them, not central like it is with normal people like us. I know it’s difficult but try not to take his leaving personally. They take the path of least resistance and I’m sure he looked at the giant mess he made of your marriage and all the hard work it would take to fix things. She doesn’t know what a complete dirtbag he is yet (don’t worry – it will come) so he figured his best bet is to go with the clueless one.

I’d hate to think you look at his leaving as anything to do with your value. Cheaters see the people in their lives a bit players in the soap opera in which they star. She’s just a bit player too. It’s the easy way out.

Thanks so much for this response (and everyone’s responses). I’ve been coming back to reread them all, but this one in particular, over the last few days. There’s something about the phrase “giant mess he made of your marriage and all the hard work it would take” that hits the nail right on the head. He’s a lazy coward. For the most part, I’m doing much better. I’m divorced and well on my way to meh. Having to raise a child with his involvement can invoke some mental scab picking, but nothing on the scale of what it used to be. I don’t want him back at all, but I do miss what I thought I had: a loving partner.

When I confronted XH about his cheating after finding physical evidence, I got verbal denials but there were contradictions to the verbal denials with micro-second facial expressions and body language. When I said, “I guess you thought you could have your fun, and I would be none the wiser and we would just continue on, business as usual.” His response was either to nod his head in agreement or to mutter “Mmm-hmm”, I can’t really remember which; but what I do remember was that it was an affirmation (and not the only one) of my accusation of his infidelity which contradicted with his verbal denials.

One night while we were separated, he stops by, does a whole bunch of lovey-dovey stuff, asks to stay over……I let him stay over.

And then does a big freak oout in the morning that we are “just friends” that I am “trying to trap him” and that he was just being “friendly for the sake of our kid.”

Because trying to make out with me on the couch and get into our bed is exactly what “friends” do, “for the children.”

My assbrain said I was judgmental too. I was “judging” him for going out with his just divorced ex-ho-worker for drinks until 1:30am and lying and telling me he was out for work. He said I was “judging” him for seeing this slut for the previous nine years for coffee before work (I never knew she even existed.) His best man for our wedding didn’t “judge” him for what he did, so why was I judging him? Ummmm, because your best man thinks that there is nothing wrong with going to Canada to see totally naked strippers and getting lap dances. He calls this “just entertainment.” Did I mention my husband and his best man are Christians? LOL Good joke!

I judged mine for wanting an open marriage. I wouldn’t have judged him if he would have informed me of that before marriage. Then, I could have just broken up and let him go to someone more compatible. It’s not even that he’s bad for wanting an open marriage. It’s that it’s bad to commit to me in a traditional ceremony with traditional “forsaking all other vows”, then ask for an open marriage once I’m stuck. It’s even worse to ask after cheating and then just keep cheating once I say no. And, it’s worse yet to get remarried to someone else, asking again for an open marriage after marriage, getting a yes and then still cheating on her by breaking the open marriage contract.

There was a theme throughout our marriage where the blame, 99.9% of the time, arrived at my doorstep.

While in divorce court, the judge was made aware that he was behind on taxes. His actual reply to the judge (pointing in my direction =>) “It’s HER fault !!! SHE didn’t do her JOB!!!” LOL – the judge just stared at him. (We had a business and he wouldn’t let me touch the accounting program we had).

My stbx wanted to be happy, he said.. So he lied, cheated, betrayed, raged, had tantrums, said he was moving out while he came and went at all hours to be with 22 y.o. from work. Then one morning after he’d been MIA all weekend again I snapped asking what do you think you’re doing? He cried “Ok ok Im leaving!” And I said, “You have been saying that for weeks – why are you still here?!”
And then this pitiful little pouty voice says, “I don’t have anywhere to go!”
Ugh. What a buttmunch.

So being a nasty, lying, cheating bully makes him happy. She can have him. He someday will be showering her with happiness, too.

Oh Lord sounds like my ex wife..would pack her bag and leave on Friday and come home Sunday drunk and happy as shit after another weekend “with the girls”…while I was home with our daughter and menagerie of pets. Finally she told me she wasn’t in love with me and was leaving, but wanted to stay several months “to save up”..3 weeks of that hell I told her to get out. I swear the more I read on this site the more I see just how unoriginal these cheating slime asses all are.

A couple months into trying to reconcile (he was still lying about how many women&years) he started in on how HE had PTSD for when I came home and come to his desk. That maybe his tension and fear in that moment derived from his choice to have fucked someone online that day never occurred to him. It was my fault for provoking the realization that all that fun sexy times was cheating on his wife, who just came home from an actual workday to ask, nicely, how his went.

I also go told that I was telling him his remorse was unsatisfactory. Well, yes! I needed a shit ton more apologies, work on his inability to have integrity when scared or ashamed. I was, just like in our whole marriage, viewing him as a competent capable good person. He was resentful of that expectation because he just wanted to have sexy times with lots and lots and lots of women. While eating cake, since we did have a house and kids that he also wanted.

And “I didn’t tell you because I knew you would be mad at me.”

And, classic, “You aren’t giving me what I want.”

“you aren’t giving ME what I want” and “this isn’t working for ME” was x’s constant refrain during any communications after he cut and ran when our youngest turned 18.
ME ME ME ME ME ……..
Reminds me of the damned seagulls in Finding Nemo “Mine, Mine, Mine, Mine…..”
WTF , is he a two year old.
Took me reading over his Ashley Madison chats on the family computer to realize x does not love anybody or anything more than himself and his penis.
And yeah x had this annoying habit that my oldest tried to diplomatically point out to him was a bit indiscrete.
He would unconsciously (I hope) adjust himself in public and even worse while speaking with somebody. Don’t know but publicly touching his genitals seems rather rude and creepy, different from scratching his ass in public.
Further cements the image of a giant toddler in my mind.

When X would do something as routine as emptying the garbage, he would mention it to me all day, hey, did you see I emptied the garbage.. I’d reply, yes, thanks , I appreciate that. (as if he didn’t live here). About a 1/2 hour later, you know I emptied the garbage, again.., thanks.. “you’re a good helper.” I didn’t say you’re a good helper but I might have. It would go on and on. If I didn’t reply to him, he would say I didn’t appreciate him and what all he does around here…, yeah, right.

It’s always about them, me, me, I want, I don’t like, I’m better, look at me, I’m a nice guy.

Do they ever think about what anyone else might like, or not like?
There’s no question that they don’t appreciate what they have.

My almost 50 yr old ex played Magic the Gathering …..I’m embarrassed to say that out loud. He would fly all over the country on our money playing magic card tournaments. He wanted to be good enough to play the pro tour when he retired from the fire dept.
He was always pissed that I didn’t ditch our two kids to go watch him play wherever he was flying to. He says his new schmoopie is willing to show her her love by going with him when her kids are with their prospective fathers every other weekend( 3 kids, 3 dads). He says she sits behind his chair and reads and spends time with him between rounds. He says she’s interested to learn about it, because he loves it and she loves him. . No boo, she’s willing to learn about it because you make a three figure salary and she would like the other half of the pension that I didn’t take.
Yep….forget that I raised two kids, kept a job and a house……I didn’t appreciate the magic cards….that’s where I went wrong. Lol
My ex also acted like every time he would put a dish in the sink he deserved a parade in his honor. I would stay up past midnight trying to keep up on the house sometimes, not a word from him…
Buh- bye. So glad he’s gone.

I had almost forgotten that the ex said the same things to me about TV shows and apparently since we only had one TV in the house, he couldn’t occupy his time for 1 hour, once a week, without losing his shit. “How can you watch that? It’s so stupid! You’re an adult that watches Teen Mom and you don’t see anything wrong with that?” I mean I hated some of the shows that he liked, so instead I would play on my phone instead of constantly complaining about what he wanted to watch. Then he complained that I was on my phone too much. Can’t win.

So anyway, after one round of this… I said “well what are you doing if you are not fucking her”. Him: Well we really like the same TV and movies and she will sit and watch shows with me.

Well, we have a modified visitation schedule in place due to a finding of domestic violence. S17 must see XH for 4 hours on the 1st, 3rd and 5th Sunday from noon to 4pm in a public place. Any other visitation is at discretion of child. It was the best I could get and S17 is otherwise NC with XH. It just so happened that Mother’s Day fell on the 1st weekend this year. Can’t wait till S17 is S18 and free from Toddler Dad.

Sounds like your son is ready to say,”Enough!” So long as you don’t encourage his decision, there really isn’t a damn thing a judge can do when a 17 year old refuses visitation. Your son is not a party to the proceedings and, despite the antics of a few wing-nut judges, the court really doesn’t have the authority to force your son to have continued contact with his dad…but this has to be a decision he has made on his own without your influence.

Yes on scary. What makes them scary is that they have toddler logic, toddler whims, toddler impulse-control, toddler anger-management issues, etc. but they are in adult bodies and can be mistaken for adults. They are able to do real damage when they become enraged, and are even able to get legal backing for their vindictive actions. My experience with the court system and my toddler-ex is that there isn’t enough time/judicial attention to expose him as a selfish liar whose every deed is disguised as for the kids’ best interest, but is really to satisfy his own. He gets what he wants in court by pretending to be a loving and active father. The court swoons, ‘omg, a dad who gives a crap! Give him everything he wants!’. He gets whatever he wants for visitation on paper, thereby reducing his child support to a laughable number, only shows up half the time, and the court is none the wiser.

Not trying to thread-jack here but Toddler Dad’s tantrums turned into uncontrollable narcissistic rage when he went through my bag and found the divorce attorney’s contract. He did enough real damage to enable me to get a protective order for DV. However, the judge liked his sobbing regret and deep longing to reconnect with our teenage son. Hence, the limited visitation. So now S17’s junior and senior years of high school, which are stressful enough in their own right, have become all about Disordered Dad.

I saw two guys doing it in (insert location of local public restroom) and it sparked an interest.

This was later changed to demonic possession. And that it was my fault for being such a negative bitch.

Ugh, what is it with cheaters and “negativity”? If I tried to point out that it was tough to make it as an actor, and maybe ex should have a day job while he tried to make it big, he would furiously brush his hands across his lap and hiss, “I’m brushing away your negativity!”

At the dinner table one night my sons jokingly asked my STBX (a 46 year old “man” if he was a nerd in high school. He jumped out of his chair, pounded his fists on the table and yelled LOUDLY “I had more friends than any of you do–COMBINED!!” and he stormed off. We didn’t know if we should be scared or start cracking up. It was alternately one of the most hilarious and most pathetic displays I’ve ever seen!

LynnZi, my ex made a very similar statement….in a counseling session, the therapist asked us to think back to our high school years and how we felt about ourselves and relationships that may have impacted how we feel today. Ex asked what he meant so the therapist said an example would be someone who was, say a nerd, may feel like the popular girls aren’t really interested in them as boyfriends but may use them, etc. Ex jumped up and said “I wasn’t a nerd, I was a jock and all the girls wanted to be with me!”. Like you, neither of us knew what to say and the therapist didn’t bring up the question again in the next session. I assume he understood what he was dealing with by ex’s reaction.

I had a similar experience with x one day, he came home and told me about how his day was going. He had just gotten some reading glasses, and he tells me, “I was walking downstairs from the office and I forgot I had my reading glasses on.” I said something to the effect that it was good that he remembered them because he worked in a grocery store and he probably would have misplaced them. He turns around and tells me that his main concern was that his co-workers would see him with those on and it would be embarrassing, because he was the “cool guy”. He was working at a grocery store, he was 44 yo and he has not been “cool” a day in his sorry life hahaha. And his “posse”, which schmoopie is included in, are some of the most unattractive, nerdy, mama’s boys you will ever find. Schmoopie has had a round with at least 2 out of the 4 mama’s boys in his posse, but let the coolness prevail!!!! Who in the hell thinks of themselves as the “cool guy” anyway…idiots all of them!!!!

Mine lied to me and told me he was in Witchita for work. When I figured out he was still actually in DC, I went to his office. That morning we had been texting and I told him we were out of coffee at the house, he said “I have a 5lb bag at the office, I’ll swing by and get it on my way home (from the “airport”)”. So when I went to his office, I used grabbing a bag of coffee beans as an excuse, but waited to confront him patiently about why he was lying to me (here, I continued to be lied to and gas lighted). I took the coffee with me, and back to the house, when I left (thinking, “we’re going to laugh about this someday”).

Four weeks later, when I was moving out and taking the full force of his name-calling, devaluing, demeaning behavior… He was drinking the coffee which I had put in the cabinet, and he said, “And you stole a bag of coffee from my office. You’re a thief!!”

Yet another display from my STBX: On Fathers Day two years ago he was gone all day in a fishing trip with “the guys” abd does not invite our 16 year old twin boys who love to fish. I had made a dinner of all his favorites that was waiting for him when he came home drunk. After dinner he said he was going to nap because it was a long day “fishing”. I told him to let me know when he wanted dessert and I would make up strawberry shortcake (his fave). 10pm and he’s still crashed, so I go to bed. The next day he called his Mom and started whining to her ” she didn’t even make me my dessert in Fathers Day! I had no dessert!!” Waaaah, waaaah, waaaah crybaby. Turns out “fishing trip” is code for screwing the skanky OW. What a guy!

Every year on my ex’s birthday I used to make him pineapple upside down cake. It had to be made in a skillet just like his mom made, and it took me years to perfect the recipe. The last year I was so proud because the cake came out perfect. I remember carrying it carefully up the stairs to show him how I’d finally gotten it perfect.

When I was moving out, I tore up that recipe in tiny little pieces and left it on the counter.

I surprised my ex by making her a cake for her birthday one year, using her family’s recipe. I’m not much of a baker, so when the recipe called for a cup of vinegar for the icing, I went with it. Needless to say it was horrible; turns out the “cup” of vinegar was actually a “cap” where the top of the a hadn’t been closed as written.

I was bound and determined to get it right, so I started the process over and got it right the second time. She said she was touched, as I was the first boyfriend or husband to ever have made her a birthday cake. It might not have been much, but in the midst of a severe depressive spell it seemed like a major accomplishment to me. Six months later she left me.

My STBX has perjured himself numerous times and lied to the police to get 100% physical custody of the kids (he now has less than 15%), probably so that he would not have to pay child support, much of which he does not pay. He also accused members of my family and me of molesting and neglecting the kids (he’s the one who has hit them with a belt) and trying to rape him, a man who is several inches taller than me, many pounds heavier than me. He has also taken our kids to police stations to get them to provide ‘evidence’ that one of my relatives molested them (absolutely not true). (One of my kids told me about this incident, even though ‘Daddy’ told him to keep the trip to the police stations a secret.) On the way out of the courthouse one day after describing my (imaginary) theft of some of his paperwork for nearly half an hour, he said, ‘Sorry…It (divorce by trial) is just a game,’ implying that the ends justify the means, that it’s OK to commit perjury, even if you are accusing your innocent spouse of heinous crimes, to get what you want. Sociopath.

When we were in the process of divorce and dividing our stuff, there were some books we shared, including a full set of a young adult series we both had some interest in (not valuable). He wanted only the first volume, and generously insisted I take the rest of them. I said take or leave the whole set. He actually laid on his back on the floor kicking his arms and legs and screaming at me that I was mean and then he jumped up and grabbed the first volume and left the house with it.

The next morning he left the book where I’d find it with a note “sorry I don’t want to cause you trauma by taking this book so important to you.” I made sure to have a witness with me for any further dividing of stuff, but he didn’t do the toddler tantrum again, just rages over everything.

Financial fraudster N family Abandoner got very excited after he got “permission” to leave from his father ( who had abandoned his family as well and as a narcissist advised his narcissist son to “do the right thing for HIMSELF..) So day of packing up and moving out the house he had lived in for 24 years Narcissist and I are standing outside, at that time I was still under the delusion that he was a good person deep down ( I didn’t know anything at the time about the shady financial deals ) who had been stolen away by that big mean wicked family friend whose own husband was very sick with Parkinson. The poacher had not children of her own and wanted to secure her future with a good healthy prospect for herself or so was my reasoning at the time, right? Here I am, still absolutely convinced of his good heart at this point and saying : “you are hurting the children and me so much, we love you…” His answer in a little boy voice on his way to the amusement park ( truly, not that of an adult at all, high pitch and all excited..) ” But I am not asking you guys to love me”….

But the gem had happened the day before when he had declared that he had been unhappy in the family house because there was ” not enough pictures of him on the wall”…

Oh another one…On account of his work, he travelled abroad every week for four days. Miss”Poacher” would stay with her sick husband when he was away and back to his house when he was in town for few days per week. His answer to this? ” she is so devoted to her common law husband, she doesn’t have one mean bone in her body”, sure, this from a woman who told her spouse she was leaving on Christmas eve ( poor very sick guy had to sell his large home and now lives in a room …)

Sprinkle and icing covered turds… however I have noticed that while the narcissist jerk kept the excited boyish voice for a good few months after his departure, this is not happening anymore. Every time, there is a phone call to discuss finances or children the voice on the other side is pretty somber. Narcissists get into the ” don’t I deserve to be made happier by you” mode pretty fast….

“You don’t have any friends. I have 5000 friends on Facebook.”

My response: “durt, those aren’t your friends. You don’t even know most of them. They are acquaintances and groupies at best. Our actual friends, think you are behaving like a child and have been for some time.” He proceeded to call those friends, that were his friends first, and found out that I was telling the truth. He then attempted to call me and when I wouldn’t answer, and didn’t respond to his text to “call me. It’s important”, he called his mommie who lives with me and had her give me her phone. He wanted to tell me “you win. You get all my friends.” (All three of them). Followed by “its all over for me. I have nothing.” And other pity party phrases that alluded to him offing himself (I know that can happen, but for him it is a manipulation tactic). I texted that I would call slut puppet if he was not ok. He didn’t respond, so I told his mom and showed her the texts. She freaked out and called him. After she determined he wouldn’t do anything stupid, he called me to tell me to never scare his mom like that again. I told him if he says shit like that again I will not only tell his mom, I will call the police.
I actually have plenty of good friends and family who support me. It’s not the quantity, it’s the quality. I should have known something was off when the people who attended our destination wedding were my friends and family and his mom (I paid for her) and our friend that I also paid for because his mom can’t fly alone.

I’m adding the “I Don’t Know Why!” category.

Little Martin was sent to his room when his mother caught him sneaking some cookies from the plate before dinner. (This wasn’t his first offense.) Later when Martin’s father asked him why Mommy sent him to his room, Martin cried, “I don’t know why!!!”

When Ashley discovered that her husband of 20 years, Dick (a 46 year old, successful business owner), had been storing porn on the family computer and exchanging lewd and lascivious emails with multiple women, she confronted him. A lengthy discussion was had about marital commitment and boundaries, etc. Ashley demanded transparency and passwords. Dick agreed to cease and desist (although he was a bit miffed as he was “only having fun” and all of those other women were “just friends”).

Two years later, Ashley filed for divorce. Ashley had found out that Dick was a bigger asshole than she originally suspected… He had opened secret email accounts and had progressed to texts and phone calls and very likely other activities. Ashley knew her way around the computer and was smarter than Dick thought…. She was also over and done with being used.

When Dick was served with divorce papers, he sent the following in an email to one of his “friends”:

“Well, my wife wants a dissolution after 23 years, so I’m a little confused! Please use my new email. It is: _____.com and I’ll give ya all the dirt!”

[During our divorce people came forward and told me of things that had been going on behind my back since the beginning of our marriage!! And he was a little confused that I wanted a divorce???]

what childish shit has dribbled from my ex’s over utilised gob……..since D’day.

Our marriage isn’t over she just thinks it is.

People do not need to know what happen. It’s all in my past.
( yes D’day was a magical turning point in your 8 year double life. And your past was three weeks before that )

Him, ‘You dragged my name through the mud.’
Me, ‘well you laid down in it.’

Me, ‘you expect me to treat you with respect and dignity, yet you show non’.
Him, ‘I show you those things you just don’t realise it.’ ( yes I’m so stupid, your utter contempt is just a cover)

Ex, to our children. Do not tell your mother were or when the wedding is I don’t want her showing up and abusing (insert name of desperate, gullible, needy chump here).

And the most recent when asked when he plans to pay his half of our children’s uniform cost, of which I have already covered the full cost his half being a grand sum of $270.
Him, ‘I won’t be paying it. I can’t afford it.
But he can afford his current month long holiday/honeymoon in France with my replacement. When I refer to her as my replacement I mean it in the facade sense. He is a closeted gay man in a homophobic church. And ticks many of the Narc boxes. So it is all about the show.

Adding to this shit he breached our parenting orders by going to the children’s school and requesting visitation to say goodbye claiming I had denied him access. He didn’t ask for additional visitation to say goodbye to the kids, he didn’t even tell me he was going to France for a month. I learnt his plans through friends and the children. And the school complied, on the assumption he was telling the truth. Plus He had even arranged for the two fuckwit elders of the cult he and I attended to come and pick up our kids on his weekends while he was away with no mention to me only to our kids. And because that was denied when he returns he expects time in lieu.

I am very angry at the moment. And justifiably so.

I suggest giving a custody schedule to the school. Tell them they need to call the appropriate parent to okay any changes that the other parent asks for. I spent 3 years sending custody schedules to an elementary school so that they would know when to contact me. By year 3, however, he had been banned from entering beyond the front desk.

Why, you ask? Well, propositioning the elementary school teacher in front of the class and sending her creepy notes (under the pretense of communicating about our child’s school work) asking for a date. She was a solid 30 years younger than he was.

My ex claimed the main reason he had to “run away, start over, be free & break away” was because he has made lots of money over the years & he still doesn’t have the $250,000 fishing boat he’s wanted since he was 15. And I didn’t drive him behind his ski boat enough for him to become a professional waterskier(what?). He said, “This was all your fairy tale. Kids, house, family…” “I’m not going with your program anymore!” Sounds just like a kid who isn’t getting their way!
I guess it’s all my fault he had a several year long affair & that his kids hate him now.

Pathetic!

” I want to spend all my money on myself”

hmm. tricky when married with 3 children.

” I would have to crawl over broken glass for you to forgive me” ( This was said when I did not know the half of it). Now I cannot think of ANYTHING he could do for me to forgive him. He is a total arse. An arrogant, entitled, stingy, lying creep.

After cornering ex with cell phone records that proved she was contacting the boyfriend she promised to cut off communication with while we “worked on our marriage” she said…

“I can’t help it!” and started crying. Wahhh! Divorce plans went into effect that day.

Mine complained bitterly when I didn’t get up at 4 in the morning with all the children, catch a train into London and watch him come over the finish line in a long distance paddling event. Claimed I wasn’t supportive. That’s after earning most of the money, doing all the housework and spending every weekend looking after the children for months so he could ‘train’.

Oh and after giving up a proper well paid job, he thought that all his male friends would be envious when he got minimum wage zero hours contract work showing people how to drive landrovers.

My ex is a vanilla cheater, not much fodder, but this is what he told our early teen:

“I thought I could infinitely sacrifice my happiness for everyone else’s… My greatest lessons learned are say what you feel and don’t sacrifice yourself: the path of silent suffering will always be doomed to failure.”

yup, he was always a good wordsmith. At the time I was jealous he was so well spoken; now i realize it simply makes him a good liar.

When everything was coming out about his dozens of affairs, I started matching up the dates of the affairs with the stuff we had going on and realized that (amongst DOZENS of other affairs) while he was carrying on with a former ho-worker, a high school whoreheart and his last ex schmoopie from right before he and I started dating, I was in the middle of taking care of his mother who has dementia. The family was working on finding full time care for her. I offered to have her come live with us and I’d be her caregiver until she became more than I could handle. Ultimately it was decided to put her in one of those posh assisted living homes, but in the meantime, I spent weeks making and serving all of her meals, washing the clothing and bedding she’d started urinating in, doing her shopping, checking her blood sugar and making sure she took bet diabetes meds, keeping her company, indulging her delusions, etc. I loved the woman and if she’d known what he was up to, she’d have probably whooped his behind.

Anyway, after I pointed this out, I asked him how he figured it was a good idea to screw his wife over in the middle of all that. He just shrugged his shoulders and said that the high school whoreheart made him feel appreciated aka kissed his ass sufficiently while I was busy making sure his mom didn’t fall down the stairs or forget to eat and had clean clothes. The ho-worker made great noises in bed and the ex, whom he carried on with, off and on throughout our entire marriage, “didn’t judge him” aka was just like him and never held him to anything.

The common denominator: the affairs partners never challenged him, never called him out and had no real obligations for him to meet. So of course he’s the shit to them and they to him. THEY HAVE NO STANDARDS!

My ex decided to go full blown into an affair right when my dad suffered a head injury and was in the ICU. After D-day he said, “When your dad got hurt I hoped he would take longer to recover so you’d have to stay longer with him. I think a longer separation would have done us good.” This was from a man who had said many times that my dad was more of a dad to him than his own ever was. But suddenly wished my dad to be an invalid longer so it would help him to have his affair without me around.

The most childish thing happened when I began riding his motorcycle with him (because as a chump I thought this would re-bond us) despite the fact I had developed quite the motorcycle phobia from being in a dirt bike accident as a child. One day we were riding on a congested interstate with tractor trailers sandwiching us in the middle lane. I had a panic attack and asked him to pull over. Instead of asking me if I was going to be okay he said in his best 5-year-old-like voice, “Does this mean you’re going to make me sell my motorcycle?”

And after that I chumped along for another four years. I could write a book.

Um . . . raising hand here. Me too.

His dad became seriously ill. The VA had determined he was A-OK anyway, so they shipped him back to his house. My X gets a look at him and says just to be on the safe side, he’ll spend the weekend in our spare room. Turns out he was really bad off so when he brought Pops in, I said fuck this I’m calling an ambulance. (He was delusional, running a fever, etc.)

About a month later, the hospital gets him well enough to discharge him. So without consulting me, he brings dad to live with us for awhile. I reluctantly agree, because I know my X’s family has a tendency to visit and never want to leave. Anyway, weeks go by, he’s doing OK, I’m making him delicious sandwiches and tasty dinners, getting his meds in order, running his fucking errands, ignoring the smell of poop and urine radiating out of my once fantastic guest room. By this time he was mentally fine, just an incredible slob. I found out one of the reasons the bedroom stank so bad was he was too lazy to use the bathroom and was instead, peeing in the corner into a wicker basket. A MOTHER FUCKING WICKER BASKET! I tell X this, and of course, I’m a bitch.

So on D-day, after finding X in a hotel room with his now current wife, (giggle, giggle), I get home and tell his Dad. I said, “I just found X fornicating with someone who ain’t me in a hotel room across town. As you can see, I am quite dismayed. So pack your shit. I don’t know where you’re going, but more than likely X will take you to your sister’s house. Neither one of you can stay here.” He looks me dead in the eye like it no big fucking deal and said, “I don’t really feel like going anywhere today. Maybe this weekend?”

Good times. The X told the planet what a horrible bitch I was for tossing him and his invalid father out into the street. He forgot to mention though, that Pops was giving him his credit card each week to fuck this broad. Since I handled the money, I never saw the charges off our checking account.

Wow. Horribly off topic, but I got in the zone.

It’s a badass story about two generations of infantile males and one badass Rumblekitty. Peeing in the wicker basket? Toddler behavior. My toddler brother once peed out the car window on the Ohio Turnpike because my dad didn’t want to stop…

Rumblekitty, not off topic. Total representation of immaturity by both.

I was thinking that, had it been my experience, I would probably not get bail for double homicide, eh? I’m sure a good defence attorney could easily show justification to a jury though!!

I would watch the Discovery Channel and ID Channel thinking the same thing. Why would anyone want to run over their husband fifty times or throw their husband in a vat of acid?? or hire a hit man??
Today I don’t blame them and in fact I’m disappointed they get caught.

I hear you. I would love to go to my father in laws house, (whom I have only met a couple times) ring the doorbell, and when he opens the door- kick him in the balls and then go back home. It’s a sad fantasy but I have it fairly regularly.

Sounds like your ex didn’t fall far from his father’s tree.

I still haven’t totally come to terms with how much time, effort and overall investment I wasted on that prick.

LastinLine…I did the same thing with his mother. I took care of her in our home for 3 months while I also worked from home for his company. Then later found her a nice assisted living facility only a few miles from us. I continued to take care of her meds and took her to her Dr.’s appointments. Later, her older sister who also has dementia moved to the same assisted living facility ( after I encouraged her to do so ). Found out later while I’m taking them to their appointments, he’s banging some whore in a hotel room. You are sooo right….they have no standards. None.

Same story here. Every winter for 3-4 months I would care for his 87 year old mother while he was out banging whores. One night when he wasn’t home by 3 am, she called him to see if he was ok. Can you imagine being balls deep in your slut, the phone rings and it’s your mother???

He got his high school whoreheart to pay for their hotel rooms. I mean, sexist as it may sound or be, what kind of woman pays for the hotel room to bang a married man? And what man wants to bang a woman who’d be willing to pay for that??? Ones with no standards. That’s who.
