mine said "exactly" the same things to me, almost word for word, even #2, just replace OW with OM. Do they all own the same manual on affairs?
It also turns out he is extremely jealous of how much I can earn in a year. He works as a mechanic in a local garage, from 8am to 5pm, no overtime. I own several businesses, potentially earning enough to be comfortable. When I asked her why he is so jealous she told me "because he thinks thats why I won't leave you, and he calls me a gold-digger because of it" and "he hates it when you buy me presents and flowers, because he can't afford to." We have been married 26 years and I have always bought her presents etc. and I won't stop now, just because he hates it. Mind you the frequency has slowed down.
and PArob,
Iv'e even heard my wife say variations of yours at times...
"You'd get along well with him and think he was OK....if the circumstances were different...shame you two can't be friends"
"I have two men in my life, and I don't know what to do. I can't choose between you. Help me make up my mind, please"
Other dumb things she / he have said range from downright hillarious to quite sad to unrepeatable on a public forum....
Some of the more notable ones,
1)"he doesn't sleep with his wife, he has his own room"
Then why did he tell you he "had a stiff neck from sleeping on the sofa after he and his wife argued" last night?
2)"he told me he can't get aroused or orgasm because of his medication, which he's been taking for 18 years"
So how come he's fathered 2 kids in the last 5 years then?
reply " I don't know "
"What is this medication?, in 18 months, have you ever seen it? or seen him take it?"
reply " I don't know. No, I have never even seen it"
3)"he wants to marry me, he's going to fly out and ask my parents for my hand in marriage"
So when did we get a divorce, when did he get divorced?
reply "I don't need to get divorced, I can just leave you. And anyway, I don't want a divorce."
4)"he's asked me to have my coil removed, so I can have his baby"....(for humour see no.2)
"Do you want another child, now you are 45 years old?"
reply "NO WAY, I've had OUR 2 kids, and thats enough".... our kids are 23 years old.
5) When caught embraced together one afternoon, "i'm not having an affair with your wife, but i'll get the man who is and the 3 of us can go and have a 'talk' ".
When I suggested he and I went for a 'talk' alone he said "NO WAY, I know all about you. You are a psychopath, she's told me all about you". he's a 6'2" bodybuilder, 3' wide, weighs 260lbs and 34 years old. I'm 5'10", 2' wide, weigh 140lbs and very nearly 50 years old.... She just sat there, jaw dropped, totally shocked that her knight in shining armour had dropped her in it.
He then turned to our son, who had just arrived, and threatened him.... Our son is bigger and more frightening than him and me put together.
6) After she 'genuinely' tried to end things with him (again)... "I've finished it, but I feel really terrible, he's told me he has cancer, it's incurable, and just wants to spend the rest of his life with me. he only has 6 months to live.".... She wouldn't lie about the cancer, it really freaks her out, especially after she found a lump and had tests for it last year.
That was 3 months ago.... Last week I asked her "how is his 'cancer', is he getting any treatment etc.?"
reply "he hasn't mentioned it since that day, I must remember to ask him."
7) When I calmly asked her to finish her affair on D-Day, 18th July....
reply "Oh the affair finished last month, now I'm just 'seeing him'"..... She is still 'seeing him'.
8) "I must remember I'm 45, and stop thinking I'm only 30. I need to grow up, don't I, darling? ".....
I couldn't help it, I nearly wet myself laughing.
9) When caught in a kissing embrace with OM at his workplace, one hour after ML and proclaiming undying love for ME, I couldn't help but laugh at the pair of them.
Later she asked "Why were you laughing? I thought that really was the end of you and me then. I thought I was going to lose you, and I don't want to lose you!"
My reply, in a very rare, but particularly spiteful moment, "It was like seeing a son kissing his mother, tongues and all."
To this day she tells me that really hurt her, made her think seriously about things and was her biggest wake up call in this whole crazy episode. She says it was like a huge slap in the face, metaphorically, and it really, really hurt. She cries about it still... That was about 11 weeks ago, and, despite 'ending it' numerous times, she still carries on 'seeing him', though not as much as before, which is completely verifiable.
10) After walking into the gym, where my wife and I were training together, the very jealous OM tried to start a fight with me..... (see no.5 for humour, this was 2 months later). I just politely ignored him and carried on training.
When he calms down a bit he says "...anyhow, you need to bulk up a bit if you want to look like me, I can help you out, give you some tips etc. You can even train with us if you like. I've been training and body-building for 17 years, I was your size once, so I know what to do."
My reply "Thanks, but I couldn't fit into my racecars if I was your size, and any way, if i'd been going to the gym for 17 years and looked like that, i'd want my money back."
He's so dumb, it really did go right over his head. Even my wife smiled.....
There are plenty more where they came from, but those are just some of the more memorable ones. Enjoy.....
