I can validate.

My Xh said very similar things, but not in an articulate way.

None of that makes a lick of sense to me either. To me if you're the best friend ever....isn't it the best thing ever to be married to your best friend ever? Gee, I thought so. yes I got the " it's not that I don't care, or that I never want to see or speak to you again. It's just I dont feel that way about you anymore. there is no reason to stay. That's not how a man should feel about his wife". A year prior I asked him what he thought a good marriage was based on. He couldn't give me an answer.

Have you gone to the MLC resources thread posted by Michelle. The first page there is a link that says " from a former MLCer" and it's says "Blake". He's an MLCer that posted some really good detail on his thought process and what influenced him to make the choices he did.

The main thing he said was the OW brought back the thrill of infatuation, of course which he was missing with W. This is an old posting, a few years, but heck MLC is the same no matter how long ago it started.

I agree. I feel the less cake eating, the faster life will bring on reality.
