Here's the idea. It seems like so many WWs follow a script and use eerily-familiar language to mess with their LBHs. This is not an original idea on my part. I'll let other people link to the relevant threads and posts.
I wanted to create a little area where people can post the wacky things their WWs have said. Maybe there can be another thread for WH sayings.
It might be beneficial in a few ways: 1. to get a better sense of how much overlap there is. At some point I might even organize them into categories and see what can be gleaned from the data. (Does this count as GAL?) 2. to develop more awareness about our WWs, our sitches, our fellow sufferers, and ourselves. 3. to guide new LBHs along the path (so that they don't get suckered like I did) 4. to have a little laugh or two when times are tough
Any takers? I'll start with a few quotes that just jumped into my head.
H: 35 W: 33 M: 11 T: 13
4/10/18: I discovered A and confronted ("BD1") 6/23/18: I moved out 8/31/18: MC ends ("BD2")
I believe there is another thread over on the MLC Forum that has a lot of the same quotes. I'll have to get w/Cadet and see if he remembers it. If we locate it, we'll post a link to it and possibly delete or merge this one with your current thread.
Also, I realize that you wanted this particular thread to stand out, but try to stick to one thread at a time. Okay?
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
BH: 36 WW:33 M: 2 Relationship: 6 years. Dday: Aug 2018 0 1st mention of D: 30/09, 2nd Mention 17/02/2019 LRT: Oct 2018 WW & AP: EA & PA since June 2018 (Moved country and in with AP Feb 2019)
No apologies needed. I'm going to leave this thread up for a while because the one that I am thinking of may have been purged many years ago and if by chance, I do locate it, I'll post the link here. BTW, the quotes are not only said by the WWs, but also the MLCers as well.

I love you too, but we are just bad for each other.
I need to find myself.
You shouldn't have to change. & You have a lot of changes to make.
The kids will be fine.
He is just a friend from work I lean on during this tough time it's nothing...don't be ridiculous you think I would would do something like that? He is just a friend.
I'm excited to start my new life.
I just want to be happy.
You are too controlling.
You always put your needs above mine. & You never put me first.
I have been thinking about divorce on and off since the day we married.
We should have never been married.
Each child was a chance to save this marriage.
(I could go on and on with rewritten marriage history quotes.....)
