I would never cheat on you.

These text messages are just joking around and are not serious.

This relationship is completely platonic.

I have a right to my privacy.

Marriage is about trust.

I think we need some time apart to think. Lets separate for a while.

I need to go on this trip without you to clear my head.

I was just helping him with his marriage problems.

I have always felt more comfortable with male friends.
My Sister texted me and she needs me right away, (after spending 2 hours doing hair/make-up and wearing clothes she doesnt wear for me).

I need to go to my Mom's house and take something to my Sister, don't wait up for me tonight.

That text is from a girl friend, she always thalk perverted to me, its something we've done since High School.

I dont want to be with him I want to be with you, (after finding texts to EX the morning after we hit the bar, she tried to ditch me to go see him, but he was busy)

And no, you cannot see my cellphone
And no, you cannot have a key to my office building with its blacked out windows where my self and my female employee spend our days together
Or how about, your not exactly innoncent either (im serious!!!)
or, your being irrational and i am not going to participate

I could go on amd on and on,,,,,,,,,,


OMG! Everytime my STBXH tells me that, I feel like I want to smack him and say Seriously???

Your paranoia is leading to our divorce.
This is getting weird/ your crazy.
How about this- "we're just friends"(as in me and H)
Orrr... It wasn't me! Lol.

My miserable story is here:

The Good, The Bad and The Ugly

The one I go one time, almost shouting at me, was: I am a grown up woman and I don't have to tell you my every move and actions.

Boy, was I ever blind!!

About her (supposedly one time fling): It was just sex and meant nothing

These, from this thread, I have heard too and never connected the dots.

I need to find myself.
I need some space.
Stop being jealous, insecure and controlling.
I have a right to my privacy
I think we need some time apart to think. Lets separate for a while.
I wasn't telling you truth to protect your feelings!

It's even worse when they turn the focus around on you, blaming you and trying to make you feel guilty.

"You're so paranoid."

"You scare me."

"This is why it's not going to work between us."

'I might as well be doing it for real if you really believe that."

As STBXW expounded about me to a mutual friend of both of ours:

"Nice guy, but he needs to get a clue. I don't wish him bad, but let's just be done and be friends!"

This mutual friend knows absolutely nothing about her dual tryst with the two other guys from her past, all while she was so "lovingly" living at home with me!

Usagi, you understand what this is right? This is gaslighting, trying to make you feel crazy for even suggesting that they're doing anything wrong even though the proof is right in front of you. It is an extremely, extremely common tactic.

1. ILYBINILWY*
2. Where we ever in love?
3. I never meant to hurt you.
4. Ive changed.
5. I feel like I'm keeping you from doing things you want to do.
6. I don't know....
7. *It's nothing you did, it's me
8. *rewriting of history - 'I didn't look happy when we had our first look'...'our engagement wasn't romantic'*
9. *We just sit around and never do anything.
10. *When we first started dating I never thought that I couldn't live without you.
11. *I don't feel like I should feel being married.
12. *I feel like we are just friends.
13. *You weren't romantic enough.
14. *You didn't take my shirt off enough when we fooled around
15. *I'm uncomfortable around you.
16. *I dread coming home to you.
17. *I look back at those wedding pictures and wasn't happy...I just smiled so the pictures looked good.
18. *You are too serious in life...I guess that's being an adult, but the person I used to know didn't give a **** and was spontaneous.
19. *You never bought me lingerie.*
20. *He talks to me about work and you think my job is stupid.
21. *Its me that has work to do

All were said to me by her. On top of lots of texting and calling to this 1 number. Keeping the phone attached to her hip, Wanting to go out all the time, wearing high heals, etc.
She still denies anything happened. Of course she has moved out and we are more than likely heading to D.

I've fallen in love, he's my soulmate, I've never loved anyone like this, never will again. My life has ended.

Then he uses pity-party lines to distract me from being suspicious.

"Maybe I was meant to be alone."

"I can't even think of being in another relationship now, even with her (the OW)."

"I feel so awful for what I did, and I so sorry."

Yes some variation of all of those. The point is to convince you that you have lost your mind. Lovely.
