Your xh is about as dumb as they come. Here you just asked him if he remarried, then the credit card companies called the same day? So, what did you do? Did you go out on Twitter and tell the world? No...that's just how stupid he is right now.

Who knows, they may have called and she answered the phone. He may have changed his telephone number or put her on the account and she charged something. Stupid man....there are ways the credit card company could get the information.

I think the man doth protest too much. I think the man had an ulterior motive in contacting you today. I realize it's very difficult to let him go, but you have to. He's got to grow up and make his own mistakes in his own time and that includes that "ugly betty" woman he married.

I'm glad you didn't get into it w/him. The less you argue or defend yourself, the better for right now. He's still seeking justification for what he did. Step back, allow him to wallow in his mess.

I am glad he got married, he will fall harder and faster.

Sit back, get a drink and watch the show.

Thanks for viiting and posting
he is dumb and still trying to blame me
The CC companies will get the information
they have been trying to call him for 6-8 months now
they will go after any lead or relaticve and a spouse is even better
I guess it is her debt too??as his new wife..wonder if she was surprized?
well none of my Buisiness..
and you are right
I need to let go
I feel I am in the final stage of grieving
I got this far and stopped
but with new information and M to OW
everything has changed for me
and I have to say goodbye
Forward
I think he is M
Trusting
Thanks, I keep hoping he will crash but he is like a cockaroach
he survives it all and never seems to hit a bollom
peace

I have a question
I asked this before but now I am ready

MY therapist wants me to let XH have every other weekend sleepover at his 1 bedroom apt with his new bride
the kids want to be with him more she wants me to have more freedom to pursue other things like spending more time with BF

I spent extra L money preventing xh froim kids meeting OW(Now W)
and I didnt trust her or xh for sleepovers

XH would like conciously hurt his kids
although he is on prescription meds and was a recovering alcoholic for 20 years
I never saw him drink once
now I dont know if he has relapsed although these drugs he takes for anxiety are addictive and he is sometimes slurred or sedated

so my therapuist feels I need to let xh have a regular visitation schdule
I was trying to protect my kids from further harm as I dont know what their R is like
I beleive me letting xh have kids would clear up some anger he is feeling toward me
and Now my main goal is to
peacefully CO PARENT AND
CO-RUN OUR BUSINESS
NOT TO RECONCILE
please give me your suggestions and what you have experienced with this
thanks
peace

how old are your kids?
do you think he (NOT HER) but HE is a danger to them?

those are the things you need to think about.
the other woman- it SUCKS! there is no other word for it....i understand not wanting them to be around her -- does she do things physically/mentally/chemically that would harm your kids?

LET go peace.... let go of him. (and YES I AM TALKING to myself as well!!)

you could always have your kids visit the therapist as well--- that is what i did. and it helped both them and me.

I think I would try a couple sleepovers and see how they go before doing it on a permanent basis.

Peace, sometimes they are very honest about their new spouses and sometimes they aren't. Look at my xh....I've only tricked him a couple of times in 10 years to even admit he's married. He never mentions her when he communicates with me...it's always "I did this, I traveled here or I go here"...never "we".

Let him go. He's no good to you the way he is. After all the ow has given you a gift...she's taking care of him while he's ill. You didn't need that full time in your life or your kids' lives.

thanks for posting
My kids are 8 and 14
my 8 year old has severe allergies
yesterday xh took them for the day
s8 came home wheezing bad and needed many medications to prevent allergic reaction
he is allergic to Wheat
left to xh alone, im not sure he or OW could handle this
he doesnt get many reactions, but I have dealt with them since he was a baby and I know how to handle it
with no medicine s8 could wind upo in severe reapiratory distress and ER
Snodderly
thanks for visiting
I know I have to let him go
and yes in a way IM glad xh has someone to take care of him
or sometimes I think OW is the reason for his downfall

I found this out today:
XH is taking several mediacations now
he was a recovering alcolholic and was sober 20 years
I never saw him drink or take drugs
He is in full blown relapse
I called the pharmacist and she agreed NO ONE shoulf be taken the combinations off drugs that he is on
that explains the sedation and explosions
in recovery world of 12 step programs
this is a full blown relapse
MLC or not
xh will have to one day get himself clean again
I do not know if he has it in him
many addicts will necver get clean once
let alone twice
so
I have this problem, now with the sleepovers
I am very skeptical t this poihnt knowing xh is so sedated and drugged
I do not know OW or anything of her except she is 28, D, and maybe has a 11 year old s or D
so I obvouiouly cant trust her to watch kids
my son is healthy but given the wrong food with his allergies, he could get very sick or worse
I think I will have to tell xh I made a mistake
and I think the kids need to comtinue sleeping here for a bit but he could feel free to take them to his apartment for the day and have them home by 9pm
and soon we can do sleepovers
IN relapse/addiction
confrontations of xh drug use will not work
as he is not ready to get clean or he would any suggestions appreciated
peace

So, why would you ex think that there is no record of a marriage? The answer is that of course he knows there is a record. You can't legally marry and not have it recorded.

Is he really that stupid, high, drunk....? I guess I don't understand what is to be gained from playing this game of, "yes, I'm married.....no, I'm not married...."

Sheesh! Earth to xh....

What is to be gained with playing the game of I'm married, I'm not married?" It's called stringing Peace along. A lot of the walkaways will do this. It's keeping one foot in the new pond and one in the old because they do not want to let go of the person they left behind. They want to make sure your are there when they want you and your attention, sympathy, etc.

Peace, step way back and allow his new wife to deal w/him and his health issues. I think you are very wise in not allowing your son to stay over there, especially with his allergies right now. Your xh has to really hit bottom once again and he will not do it as long as he's not facing the consequences of his actions.

Keep the focus on you and your son. You cannot rescue him.
