Well, this is a first for me this week. Someones pissed off and I had nothing to do with it Thumbs Up


Hell I did not think I had anything to do with it either. But I guess it was all me. Shocked


No Paul. It wasn't all you. It was my f*cking ex trying to cause more problems. She's the one that got you guys involved and it was done on purpose just to get back at me. Can't you see that. I really dont have any hard feelings toward you guys. It just pissed me off when you got sucked into her f*ck*** up little world. I wont comment to you any more on this subject. Hopefully I'll be out of here in a few weeks. Just got to get everything in storage.

I think you were a target because she knows how much I enjoy this site, and you were a direct link to it to make me look bad. She was always saying she thought this site meant more to me then she did. Well guess what.......IT DOES!!!!!!!!!

Mr. Green

Mac,

when personal relationships go sour, emotions can run pretty high, and sometimes one party can stoop pretty low. That's never a comfortable position, and it can wind up being extremely painful. Hopefully, you'll be able to extricate yourself from that quagmire soon, and have an opportunity to relax and cool down.

Paul,

I'd recommend just letting it go for now. Give Mac some space, and let him get things worked out. It's fairly obvious you both were relying on information from the same unreliable source, so don't sweat it for now, and don't take it personally. After Mac's out of the woods with his SO, I'm sure the two of you can smooth things out in PM. Some personal matters (especially unfounded allegations) really should be kept private.

You sent me a PM asking to have this deleted. This is however an unmoderated forum and you started the thread and then continued to post ...

I'm a very strong believer in the un-moderation of this forum. The only posts I will ever delete are spammers and anything that's truly illegal that could get us into trouble. So far all I've ever erased are posts from spammers.

Don't want any issues? Don't post, and certainly don't start threads and then expect someone else to step in to wipe it all away if it doesn't go the way you thought/hoped.

I understand your decision and respect it. I wasn't asking to have it deleted on my behalf but everyone elses. I didnt think everyone else really cared what was going on and didn't want to have to read the bull****.

I do want to thank those who have responded in various ways. It is to bad that Paul did have to get caught up in this big mess. I am sorry that happened to him and his g/f.

However what you have read here today is nothing compared to what I have been going through for the past month. I could tell you stories that would leave you baffled with disbelieve. Thats what my life has been lately and why I have not been on here for a while. I dont know where this will lead me but I do hope that I can still return here on occasion to help out. Many of you probably think I'm some kind of moron now, but there's nothing I can do to change that. I still believe that you all are my friends and I have enjoyed many hours on here with you guys. Thanks for that. Until we chat again, Ron.

Well I'm feelin a little better today. She's been trying to evict me for about 4 weeks now (deed's in her name even though I own half the house....I know, stupid on my part) and today was the last day for me to be out from the court papers she filed. She just called and they told her I requested a hearing and they wouldn't make me leave until after the hearing. Which will be weeks away.

I SAW SMOKE COMING OUT OF HER EARS AND SHE WAS RUNNING AROUND BOUNCING OFF THE WALLS LIKE A CHICKEN WITH ITS HEAD CUT OFF.

Oh man. It was priceless............. Haven't laughed like that in weeks.

Fortunately in this state, common law is a very big deal. Doesn't matter who's name is on a piece of paper if it falls under joint ownership. Right back at ya, bitch!!!!!!

Sorry for that last remark guys, just had to vent a little more.

I was asked by one forum member to delete this thread. I say no.

I think most of us have been in a crappy breakup situation before, whether married, commonlaw or just plain old b/f/g/f. Been there done that, the fallout continues to this day for me.

Be damn careful out there, from protecting your assets to wrapping that rascal. Bros before hos.

That's all I got. Smile

Some chicks are messed up, yes they are.

Sounds like a bunch of immature bantering by a screwed-up chick to me.

Figure it all out and please don't assume that ALL women are like this.

Too many guys get wrung through the cleaners by US women and then assume we're ALL like that which we ARE not.

Take it as a lesson learned, stand back up and wipe off your ass and don't turn into one of those angry guys with nothing but contempt for ALL women.

Yup, situations suck but they go away and if you look again, you'll find something good.

You can't punish Curt with a belt...he likes that stuff! Laughing (Please don't throw me in the briar patch!)

I spent 10 very long years with a raging alcoholic...and no, I didn't know she was one until I was married. Then her head spun around and green pea soup spewed from her mouth. I thought I could 'help' her. Which worked for a while. Got her admitted to a rehab center in Newbury, MA and things were fine...until she slowly started to justify drinking. "I had a tough day so I'm just going to have one" kinda thing. It got to the point she was right back the way she was before rehab. eg, we'd be at a party or gathering and she would drink number x of cocktails (I never could figure out what drink # put her into psycho rabid bitch mode) and a bullseye would appear on my forehead. Hell, I've attended ONE high school reunion and ended up having to toss her over my shoulder and carry her out. Talk about embarassing. Had to do the same thing when I tracked her down and lugged her out of a Holiday Inn bar....while fighting two 'hero's' with the other arm.

The final straw was her waking me up at 2:30am after drinking all Saturday (and night) and asking me if I thought "this would hurt anybody". Shocked Shocked I filed for divorce the next day. She's since turned my now grown son and daughter against me (who she shipped to WI from NH while she lived the good life...without paying child support). Once the kids got to Sr. year of high school...she enticed them to come finish school and live with her. My wife and I haven't seen ONE of our children graduate high school. I hired the lawyer and she didn't get one. You would have THOUGHT she had a lawyer and I didn't because I got screwed. I got the bills, my old car...and the boot. She got the house, contents, kids and subsequently, 9 years of child support free living. (I couldn't find a lawyer or gov't agency that would do a damn thing to assist me across that many state lines.)

Ahem. 'Desk of Too Much Information' again. Embarassed

Of course, if they're wacko au natural you really can't help them. Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned and all that.

My advice would be to use caution when you put anything down in print like this thread. If she's as crafty and intent as she's demonstrated, you don't want to believe for a second she isn't here reading this...especially when she already had a problem with the time you spend here. One last thought...I was a voracious reader my entire life. I used to read a book a day....UNTIL my pscyho bitch got jeaous of the time I spent with books. Shocked Yeah...WTF???!!!

Tough subject for sure. More controversial than politics and religion is attempting to 'help' somebody you know who's going through this. I've had that backfire a time or two and lost a couple good friends when they reconciled.

If you begin dating again, (talking serious relationship), before your ex...expect her to really turn it on given her current state of agitation.

As far as swinging goes.....No comment. Wink

Believe me, I dont think all women are like that. However I do believe that women can get out of control and blow things out of proportion. My ex is going through the change and PMS'ing at the same time. That's dynamite with a lit fuse.

I just feel I made a bad choice. Things were good initially but when they went south, it went waaaaaaaaaaaaaay south.

One of the main reasons I havn't left yet is because if I do walk I stand to loose 70 to 80 grand. I walked away from a large sum in my 1st marriage just to get away but I'll be damned if I walk away from that much cash again!!!!!!!!!

Ron,

Have you looked on craigslist under W4M in the personals? You might recognize some one.

I think that ANYONE can get out of control. Its not really based on sex. (I do not think anyways)

When we are young, its ok to blame raging hormones etc or even your sh*tty upbringing, crappy parents, friends or lack there-of at school....pick your excuse really.

When we get 'all growned up', however, we're all supposed to be mature and look out for each other right?

We all seem to go back and find the SAME type of person and I don't know why really.

If it didn't work the first time, what the hell makes you think its gonna work the second time?

If she is really posting on CL under the WfM, she's a messed up chick for sure.

Lets get someone else in the bed before it gets cold and makes us lay away at night wondering what really happended.

Sign pre-nups people to protect your cash AND your kids.

If money is out of the equation, its amazing how much 'red tape' is out of the way.
