Their In-famous quotes

[foo fighter]

Saffie,

Yes a good visit with Children. We played and my friend's wife made cookies that they could decorate and put sprinkles on.

This is really the only thing that got to me though. WAW and I had said Merry Christmas to each other on xmas eve and day on the phone but I was put out that she did not see me/talk to me when I picked the children up or dropped them off yesterday.

I mean, yes it does look like she has moved on but it was our first christmas apart in 19 years. Do they just not give a f**k.

I was doing pretty good until I started thinking about this yesterday evening.

ARRGHH!

Foo.

Well yeah - she was fcuking MY husband - no wonder I wasn't smiling!!!!!!!

HOLY CRAP Saffie, you crack me up!!

What a great idea for a thread. Maybe Michele can put these into her next book. I have heard most of these and here are a few more:

• Some people grow too much, others don't grow enough
• I've been basing my life on other people's expectations
• The only reason I've been here this long is because of the kids
• It's about time I do something for myself

Oh wait, how could I forget this one:

"WE are not healthy together"

[Yoyowife]

Let's not forget this one...

I'll alway love the kids, this is not about them. (Try telling the kids that one, huh?)

[NoCodeBlues]

Oh, yeah, here's the one that gets me:

"The separation and D will not really effect our kids. They are resilient and will be better for it."

[Yoyowife]

Bingo, NC, we've all heard that one haven't we? Again it's amazing how we basically hear the same thing.

Let's add another one to the bunch. When they are feeling guilty... "I know I should have talked to you. It's me not you."

[SirPrizeMe]

Omigosh!
all those statements - right out of her mouth!

and this one, too:
"Our marriage was a mistake" (14 yrs and 4 kids - whoops!)

"You deserve someone better" - then she points out someone better.

Saffie, I am so glad to here that sanity can return. But how? When? when oh when?

Funny thread. I've been curious as to where they all find the playbook.

How about:

"I want you be happy. I want you to find someone that loves you as much as you love me."

[mako_man]

Cant believe I forgot so many of these. Heres one that really hurt:

"You are a much better dad now that we are apart"

[NoCodeBlues]

Ouch, yes, that one stings.

How about:
"I am so sorry it took me leaving you before you would ___"

Fill in the blank with whatever positive action your spouse has just witnessed, such as:

"... spend time with your children."
