SEE LIES or SEA THE LIES
by....Wanting Something in a Person that Wasn't there
alias....Blonde
I lived with a guy for 14 yrs. We owned a house & eventually a business together. He told me he was divorced. I eventually found out he wasn't. (I was married twice before and so was he-so that's why i went for the living together thing) He still had contact with his X(or so as he called her) They didn't have children, but he said he was in contact with her because he raised her child which he called his stepdaughter.(okay understandable) The stepdaughter came over the house one day which followed by bringing her mother(the supposedly X) which was drunk and made a big scene in front of my house screaming "He's my husband" ! So...i wanted nothing to do with them and then he swore he would take care of the problem.(he didn't)
I went through this period of back and forth lies, manipulation. I didn't know how bad it was getting. He chased all my friends away and slowley chipped away at me until i quess i was under control of some sort. I periodically found crack bags at the house. I couldn't figure out how he was doing it with out no money. I quess his X was giving and doing the crack with him. I was just trying(i quess) to keep thngs together and move on to a normal life. He was unpredicable and was nice and a minute later nasty.
Years passed....he kept avoiding the questions, problems, drugs,etc. It wasn't all that bad, but I don't know how i stayed for that long(i feel so stupid now) I worked on the house like a man, putting floors in, tile, painting, cutting the grass while he was so lazy it was unbelievable. I don't know why i stayed(it wasn't because of love) I think i was worried about my children. I wanted them(2 boys) to have a good school and a nice house to live it. I also spent my time going to school part time and furthering my education. I was not happy with him that is for sure! FINALLY... I planned my escape.... and left....he made the house go to foreclosure and stole money from the business after i left. Before i left he left for 2 weeks(apparently with the X) She got arrested for hitting a car, drinking and driving, etc. I have a restraining order against him and a charge of arson threat. They both have court cases coming up in Sept. HA! I think it's so funny.
He keeps calling my job. I'm recording it and taking it to the judge in Sept. He needs to leave me alone. He went to a court case last week with his x(really wife). A friend of mine spotted him there with his X. He called my friend later and told them not to tell me he was with her.(ha) He keeps leaving messages on my answering machine at work like he wants to go back together. Can you believe it? I can't wait until i get him in court. That Mother needs to leave me alone! It has been almost 9 months now and i'm so happy that i left. I have to go to the court case with him, but i'm also thinking about going to the(x-really wife's)court case just for revenge and a good laugh because of all the yrs of ...whatever it was...
I don't know why i wrote this...i feel really dumb. You wouldn't know it if you met me. I have a good job, a nice car, i'm attractive, a nice girl, etc. I guess i'm just putting out a warning to people be careful out there. There are alot of bad people. If it happened to me, it could happen to anyone! Be careful.
ps. How can you be married to someone and they leave you and are living with another woman for 14 years and you still see them? Also his (x-really wife) had a boyfriend and a child with another guy. The kid is with him now! Didn't she even care about her child? If my husband left me and was living with someone else i wouldn't talk to himif hecalled. Is this what drugs do to you? JERRY...JERRY!!!!:jerry:
Pss. This will never happen to me again!
Psss. Eventually...i will be seeking a 50/50 relationship. Right now i'm just getting my ducks in a row & taking care of me.

No one can understand emotional abuse by a controlling person (men can be abused too) unless they've been through it - and I have. Good job of getting out, but be careful. So many woment have restraining orders but end up hurt or worse by an 'X'.

Fifty / fifty does not work. Ninety / ten - each person needs to be unselfish 90% of the time and selfish 10% so that when one person is being selfish, the other one is likely to be willing to let them have their way.
50/50 leads to arguments of, "I did it last time" or "I did this, so you have to do that." Just brings discontentment.
Sounds like you were in a one sided 90 /10 and a 10 / 90 where you did 90% of the giving and he did 90% of the taking; Both people need to be willing to give 90% of the time.

It's really not THAT hard for years and years to pass when you keep thinking you need to give the person time to get themselves together, then you yourself get busy in school, work, kids etc. So I can understand how it became 14 years for her. It also isn't easy to jump up 1 day and decide to live in THIS AREA on one income either... been there, done THAT TOO.
If you own property together that further complicates things, especially in the bad economy we've had the past few years. Not like you can just sell a house in 30-60 (or 90-120???) days for a PROFIT and be done with it. Also there are likely other joint bills involved ..... if only we knew how complicated it can be to break up, maybe we'd handle things differently as we progressed in a relationship?

Many men are liars and users. Women are more emotional than rational. Those men "play" on those emotions. The only thing worse than those men, are the women who enable them.
Women get wrapped up in the emotion of the moment (the fantasy of love). Love is somewhat blind but it shouldn't be stupid. This is exactly what ruins it for the few good men. She might meet a really good guy next time and lose him because of her past experience (once bitten, twice shy).
NEVER live with someone first. Ladies, do the necessary background checking and spend the time getting to know someone BEFORE you commit. :buddies:

Feral cats are merely formerly domesticated cats that are now living and breeding as a wild animal, but are NOT wild animals.
"Feral cats are descended from domestic cats but are born and live without human contact. Any environment that sustains people can sustain feral cats, who are known to have thrived in urban, suburban, and rural areas in all parts of the civilized world. They are not to be confused with wild cats or with stray cats (alley cats). Wild cats are descendants of wild species. Stray cats are homeless or abandoned domestic cats, but unlike feral cats, have had prior contact with humans and therefore exhibit temperament similar to that of a domestic cat.[1]"

The OP sounded like she's much happier now. It's interesting how we sometimes allow ourselves to get tangled up in a mess that we really never would WANT to be in. Can sort of happen a little at a time, and then wham, one day you look around and think - how did I end up in this mess? :confused:

I know exactly how the OP could stay in a 14 year relationship even though it was not good. I have been through two previous marriages. The first ended because of alcohol and physical abuse. My second marriage was better but eventually ended because of alcohol and drug abuse. My first marriage lasted eight years and the second relationship lasted fifteen years. I got married again two months ago to the most wonderful man. We were together over two years before we married. I am finally really happy and thank God for giving me such a good man. As they say, the third time is a charm! Remember, there are still good men out there. Good luck and best wishes for your future.

I got married again two months ago to the most wonderful man. We were together over two years before we married. I am finally really happy and thank God for giving me such a good man. As they say, the third time is a charm! Remember, there are still good men out there. Good luck and best wishes for your future.
NOW??? DOES HE HAVE A BROTHER? OR, at this point a sister?(no! only kidding)
I know it sounds stupid, but the time just goes by and you don't know how it slipped away. Whether you were busy, confused, manipulated, etc. I can't figure out how i stayed that long!!! I know one thing, i'm not going to beat myself up about it!!!:boxing:

GET READY FOR A SHORT STORY...
SEE LIES or SEA THE LIES
by....Wanting Something in a Person that Wasn't there
alias....Blonde
I lived with a guy for 14 yrs. We owned a house & eventually a business together. He told me he was divorced. I eventually found out he wasn't. (I was married twice before and so was he-so that's why i went for the living together thing) He still had contact with his X(or so as he called her) They didn't have children, but he said he was in contact with her because he raised her child which he called his stepdaughter.(okay understandable) The stepdaughter came over the house one day which followed by bringing her mother(the supposedly X) which was drunk and made a big scene in front of my house screaming "He's my husband" ! So...i wanted nothing to do with them and then he swore he would take care of the problem.(he didn't)
I went through this period of back and forth lies, manipulation. I didn't know how bad it was getting. He chased all my friends away and slowley chipped away at me until i quess i was under control of some sort. I periodically found crack bags at the house. I couldn't figure out how he was doing it with out no money. I quess his X was giving and doing the crack with him. I was just trying(i quess) to keep thngs together and move on to a normal life. He was unpredicable and was nice and a minute later nasty.
Years passed....he kept avoiding the questions, problems, drugs,etc. It wasn't all that bad, but I don't know how i stayed for that long(i feel so stupid now) I worked on the house like a man, putting floors in, tile, painting, cutting the grass while he was so lazy it was unbelievable. I don't know why i stayed(it wasn't because of love) I think i was worried about my children. I wanted them(2 boys) to have a good school and a nice house to live it. I also spent my time going to school part time and furthering my education. I was not happy with him that is for sure! FINALLY... I planned my escape.... and left....he made the house go to foreclosure and stole money from the business after i left. Before i left he left for 2 weeks(apparently with the X) She got arrested for hitting a car, drinking and driving, etc. I have a restraining order against him and a charge of arson threat. They both have court cases coming up in Sept. HA! I think it's so funny.
He keeps calling my job. I'm recording it and taking it to the judge in Sept. He needs to leave me alone. He went to a court case last week with his x(really wife). A friend of mine spotted him there with his X. He called my friend later and told them not to tell me he was with her.(ha) He keeps leaving messages on my answering machine at work like he wants to go back together. Can you believe it? I can't wait until i get him in court. That Mother needs to leave me alone! It has been almost 9 months now and i'm so happy that i left. I have to go to the court case with him, but i'm also thinking about going to the(x-really wife's)court case just for revenge and a good laugh because of all the yrs of ...whatever it was...
I don't know why i wrote this...i feel really dumb. You wouldn't know it if you met me. I have a good job, a nice car, i'm attractive, a nice girl, etc. I guess i'm just putting out a warning to people be careful out there. There are alot of bad people. If it happened to me, it could happen to anyone! Be careful.
ps. How can you be married to someone and they leave you and are living with another woman for 14 years and you still see them? Also his (x-really wife) had a boyfriend and a child with another guy. The kid is with him now! Didn't she even care about her child? If my husband left me and was living with someone else i wouldn't talk to himif hecalled. Is this what drugs do to you? JERRY...JERRY!!!!:jerry:
Pss. This will never happen to me again!
Psss. Eventually...i will be seeking a 50/50 relationship. Right now i'm just getting my ducks in a row & taking care of me.
Blonde
UPDATE!!!!
The SOB got 90 days(suspended) and 2 weekends in jail for violating the protective order. His i'll say it lightly(stepdaughter)was there in the audience and when i walked by she hollered out i was a "liar"!!!!! She will find out later, i guess she believes all his lies. I actually think he could even be sleeping with her, he was calling her about 10 times a day for 20 min at a shot when he shared cell phone min with me. What? Persay? could they have been talking about??? Anyway, it was like putting an oyster in a piggy bank. Believe me! The last couple years he aint what he used to be(ha ha) She can have him or share him with her ugly mother!
He can win the academy award for the acting he does. He missed his calling! The "wife" was not at the courthouse and his attorney(i didn't have one cause i was a witness for the state)told the judge the only reason he was calling my job & writing me letters for the last 10 months was because he was so in "love". In love? How insulting. All he tried to do was "collect" women. My friends spotted him at walmart and at another court case with his "wife". And, they all said how ugly she was. Not for me because it is true. Did you ever see people who are on drugs for a long time? It is not a pretty picture. Why call me at this point when you are STILL in the same situation? He didn't do anything different and still wanted me back(YEAH...THIS #### MUST BE GOOD!! HA HA) Anyway, how insulting & sick!!!! sick!! SicK!!
I have now moved on, but i wanted to let everyone know what happened!
It made me feel better to write all this ####(anomalously) to get it off my chest. Thanks for all your advice, jokes, etc. It really took the edge off. I'm too busy for therapy. Now...to find a GOOD MAn!!!! :patriot:

I was once told that from a man's perspective, you meet women in bars to get laid. But you meet women in grocery stores to meet your soul mate :lmao:
So go grocery shopping! If you find a man with a bunch of pre-packaged food and things in bulk, they're usually single :wink:
Happy hunting! :howdy:

Yeah but the only reason they're single is because thier ex wives claimed they were abusive alcoholics.

How can you meet someone in the grocery store and then give them your contact information (how else will you see them again?) without looking like you're loose and/or easy?

I met my husband at the vet's office. I gave my name and number to the receptionist to give to him under the impression that we had talked about setting up a ferret play date and I had forgotten to give him my number. :lol:

No, I'm just shy as heck and would have passed out if I had done the more direct approach. Plus that gave him the option of not calling me back since we both knew the play date thing was a lie. I also didn't risk getting rejected to my face. Score one for the shy girl!!!!
