dreamingoftigers Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 You're suggesting we should both play her game? That's an idea I hadn't thought of! Why involve yourself in a continuing power-struggle that isn't your to begun with. Truth be told you don't want him having an emotional reaction to the wife at all unless it is something that draws the two of you closer together (I.e. "she's the enemy.") and you want him to turn to you in that case. Men generally like to handle their emotional garbage by having space and bit being shamed for it. Back off. Or you are going to drain him, quite frankly. Link to post Share on other sites
xxoo Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 Alls I want to know is how to get this **** she's pulling to not frustrate him so bad. Cuz that's all it is ****! You can't. It is out of your control. It isn't out of his control, but you aren't going to change him. Link to post Share on other sites
Silly_Girl Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 But...everyone has said the same thing that Silly_Girl did: Basically, just stay out of it. *Runs off to print herself a certificate on her home PC to mark such a momentous occasion: "People on LS agreed with me, upon the 11th day of August...."* Link to post Share on other sites
Spark1111 Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 Daisy, I know being told often and for a long time that their marriage was caput, you truly did believe she would want to quickly divorce and move on. And the reality is, that will probably NOT be what happens. Whether it is her, or her attorneys, divorce is often a long, drawn out, emotional rollercoaster for BOTH parties involved. Ultimately, the court will make it's decision and that can take as long or as short as the attorneys intend to litigate disputes between husband and wife. This isn't going to be over anytime soon, as much as you may want or hope it to be. Especially, if he is a man of means as I am sure her attorney's are aware of. And if she has been unemployed during there marriage, yes, it is common that he will have to pay for her attorney fees since he inititated the filing and it sounds like she intends to contest it. All you can do is have patience and wait and do not try to flame the fires that are already lit. Link to post Share on other sites
Author daisy love Posted August 11, 2011 Author Share Posted August 11, 2011 No, I think you and super special lover dude are being beat at your own game. Tawanda!!!!!!!!!! What are you talking about? He offered her everything she wanted from the very beginning. Do you want him to offer her his nuts on a silver platter too? I like your other idea though! Every time she says ok but trys for more, he should offer less! That would Nip. It. In. The. BUD! Link to post Share on other sites

MissBee Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 So he has a "type." As for getting her stuff not to frustrate him so bad.... You have no control over how he feels about it or how he is going to react. Zilch. Word to the wise... Don't ever try to own someone else's feelings: it is a recipe for a very unhealthy relationship. But cosign..... Link to post Share on other sites

If he had nuts maybe he should offer them up. And you can read whatever you want into my posts if that floats your boat....float on. But the fact is, you can't tell him what to do as he has already told you to but out. :D The thing about Biotches they tend to pack a powerful slap, especially when pushed beyond their limits. Let's face it, you are still(until the divorce at least) on the outside looking in. :lmao::lmao: Link to post Share on other sites

Silly_Girl Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 There's lots of sadness here on LS. My spidey-sense tells me that there will be more. What do you think? I don't necessarily disagree with you. I just don't see why it's such a source of fun for you, given what you feel about the situation underneath the jibes...

That's not what BNB suggested at all. She doesn't want the goods as much as she wants the validation. Honestly if I were emotionally dependent on my H and he pulled the **** your MM has pulled, I would make it Hell for him like he is making it an emotional Hell for me by cheating, lying and threatening me. He could expect a Veeeerrrrryyyy long battle with not much to show for it except a long legal bill in the end. Think of how annoyed you are and how much say you want to have in the situation, now multiply that by 100. There's your answer for how long and hard this is going to be. Why MMs ever figure they can pay off the W is completely beyond me. If I were furious enough, I would let the damn D bankrupt us both. Hell hath no fury..... And according to you Hell is her hometown. Brace yourself. Link to post Share on other sites

That's all Why it is such a source of fun for me this week: misery lives company. Especially company on the other side of the spectrum. Since my own life is sadly powerless against the cheating kind and their accessories (for the time being) I take a little pinch of happiness knowing that somewhere out there, someone causing poor misery like the kind I have suffered is getting at least annoyed. I'll grow up next week, today I'll take a day off from maturity and bask in the random naïveté of others. Pass the shame along.... Link to post Share on other sites

And according to you Hell is her hometown. Brace yourself. Mr. Messy felt like he could move assets, hide monies and lie about debts that he and OW would live happily ever after if I sold my dream home and moved out of state to be with my family(yes, he wanted me to take his children out of state:sick:)to make his(their) lives easier.......Not a flying chance in hell. Not only did I get what I was entitled to, I knew how important his reputation was to him:lmao::lmao::lmao:. Funny thing, money can't change who you really are underneath. If you are a piece scum before, all you can do is dress it up to make it look better, but it is still just a piece of scum(threatening to do things over her dead body:sick:) Link to post Share on other sites
Mme. Chaucer Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 At first, BS said they wold get a D over her dead body. Then my love told her he could make that happen The fact that you shared this, Daisy, makes you look very trashy. And it portrays your "lover man" as a lowlife creep. But he insists on talking to her and try to get her to make nice and go away. But then he gets all upset again and real grumpy! I suggested again sweetly with a kiss that he GO NC and he was real pissed about everything and he told me to mind my own business.What should I do?? She is making my life MISERABLE!! As others have said; you and this prize of a looserman are probably making HER life more miserable than you can imagine. And, you are bugging your snuggums and probably making HIM miserable yourself. If you don't lay off, he is going to have a "light bulb moment" (arguably the first one in your story) and realize that he might be jumping out of the frying pan and into the fire. If his wife is really a big PIA, he could start to dream of peaceful days without any nagging, demanding, conflicts. Link to post Share on other sites
dreamingoftigers Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 MMs tend to dive into the steroid versions of the relationships that they had with their wives. I.e she used to be so much fun etc. So this time they find the girl that parties extra-hard and turns out to have bigger arguments with them then they ever did with the XW. stuff like that.

happywithme Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 I know I'm young and I've been really stupid and have done something I shouldn't have with MM, and I feel terrible about it and I'm sure I will forever, but I have to say wow. If I ever turned into this much of a self obsorbed whatever I think I'd be even sadder. It is there finances, there raltionship, there marriage that is ending, not yours.
