"Lesson I've learned from this- you can't negotiate with crazy people."
That pretty much sums up how I feel.
It's been like this for 2 and a half years.
Every time I want to post to someone on here, I feel like i will just point out how useless it is to try to engage with an mlc-er.
Best to just do what's right for you and walk away. If they ever come to their senses, it won't be because of anything the LBS did.
Very negative, I know.
The other thing i didn't post about was how my XH now blames me for the failure of his businesses and the wastage of all our family savings. He did this in writing in his attempts to draft a settlement.
It's just SO BIZARRE that he would blame me for these two aspects of the demise of our relationship when the financial side of things was completely controlled by him (more fool me!).
But anyway, just another little insight into the madness of the mlc condition - in which everything has to be the LBS's fault.
I suppose most on here already know the story, but anyone in need of inspiration should google 'Madeleine Albright marriage' and see what can be achieved when your once-loving spouse announces "I just can't do this any more" and disappears with his OW.
