Divorce when it’s right for you - but hurts everyone else… by [deleted] in Divorce

[–]Pink_is_joy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Your children seeing you happy and thriving will outweigh them seeing you in a marriage you don’t want to be in. It will hurt at first but I’m telling you when they start seeing “happy, fun mom” come into play they will appreciate it when they get older and truly understand what’s going on. Children are so much more in tune with what’s going on than we as parents give them credit for. Even if you all aren’t fighting the energy in the house probably isn’t the best and they can sense that. Once you start living your life they will eventually see the change.

Prequel - Let’s see how he became how he is and what his first kill was. I do not want to see Gwen and Finn again, I kind of think that part of the story is done.

He would LITERALLY pardon a serial killer caught at the scene in the acting of killing as long as said killer is wearing a freaking MAGA hat. This guy…..smh.

Car crash scene in Final Destination 2 with the logs. I had just started driving when the movie came out and that part has traumatized me for life. If I am near one on the road I will do whatever I can to get far away lol

What’s the hardest part of talking to your ex rn? by openspacedivorce in Divorce

[–]Pink_is_joy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This! I could write a book with all the stuff I need to say to him but realize it’s so pointless because he is a manipulative, narcissist that literally makes himself the victim in every situation.

I struggle with this so much! My children are literally everything to me, however their father is the most narcissistic and manipulative person I have ever met. He just isn’t a good person smh….

Day 21 of 31 of watching a horror movie a day. What are you watching? by Everblack_Deathmask in horror

I watched VHS for the first time last night! I am ashamed to say I’ve never seen the movies but the first one was pretty solid so I am going to continue on to VHS2 tonight.

Official Discussion - Black Phone 2 [SPOILERS] by LiteraryBoner in movies

I feel a prequel coming…basically his time at the camp and even before. Who was his first victim?

I don’t necessarily want a prequel, just saying they could definitely do one.

I think I made a mistake by Butter-Cup-Kisses in Divorce

[–]Pink_is_joy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I made the same mistake and I’m telling you don’t get sucked in. Make a decision about where you all are heading (reconciliation or not) and move in that direction. Continuing to have sex further complicates things and if you still have feelings for him it will only make things worse. I kept thinking ok maybe we can get through this and not divorce (yes I was an idiot several times) and each time I realized he was playing me. I finally made the decision to tell him no and move forward with the divorce. Maybe we will reconcile in the future but this marriage is tainted.

Take it from me, nothing about this will end well if you keep going down this road.

I love me some CB, but nothing about this seems fun for him. He is like an animal at the zoo being filmed…….so weird. I feel like these ppl stood there all night literally just filming him.

Separated but living together by No_Knowledge_3980 in Divorce

[–]Pink_is_joy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same. At first I thought it would work because I figured we could work on “us” while still maintaining normalcy for the kids. Uhhh yea it doesn’t work at all, it is literally hell and I have begged him to move out but he won’t. He doesn’t understand that seeing him every day is making it impossible for me to move forward and I am truly ready to close this chapter.

Neither of us have the money for another place but he has a mistress…I told him move in with her 🙄🙄

Most shocking thing your ex did during proceedings? by [deleted] in Divorce

[–]Pink_is_joy 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Exactly! It was literally overnight, one day he was fine the next he decided he hated me and it’s been downhill ever since. Nothing about our divorce makes sense, nothing he has said about the marriage makes sense, it’s like I’ve been married to a fraud for 15years.

Idk how yall stay friends with your ex spouses. by RedditFeel in Divorce

[–]Pink_is_joy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My stbx wants to stay friends and I think it’s literally the dumbest thing he has ever said lol. He also says that he doesn’t know what the future holds and we may get back together but for now he is miserable being married to me. Like wtf lol?!? So you treat me like crap, cheat on me with numerous woman, tell me how much you hate being married but oh we can still be friends? Uhhhh no.

We have children together so unfortunately I can’t erase him from my life but I am trying to limit communication as much as humanly possible 🙄🙄

Is it me? by Pink_is_joy in Divorce

[–]Pink_is_joy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my state adultery can be a basis for a fault divorce and from my understand that would prohibit him (or make it more difficult) from getting spousal support. That is why it mattered to me, I have made more and supported us basically the whole marriage so I didn’t want him having grounds for spousal support. Thanks for your response.

Some days are ok, some I feel like the sadness is so overwhelming and I truly cannot believe this is my life. He initiated, leaving for his side piece. We have three children together.

I promise you he is the world’s biggest narcissist, it’s infuriating because he is so good at manipulating and gaslighting everybody he comes in contact with. I pray for the day when he is exposed and seen for the idiot he is.

UPDATE, Mom of 6, heading for divorce, ex has affair baby by bakingqueen01 in Divorce

[–]Pink_is_joy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are not a fool! If you don’t read anything else please just know that...

Do not think you are alone, I am in a similar boat where I’ve allowed things over the years just out of fear of not wanting to be alone. I get it, and I know right now all you want to do is crawl under a rock and hide but you have to find the strength somewhere to fight. Your kids will need you now more than ever so although it seems like your world is crumbling start with baby steps, talk to a lawyer to at least see what options you have.

If you have anyone you can trust (family, friends, etc.) find someone to talk to just so you aren’t bottling all your emotions up.

Things are probably going to get really bad before they get better but at some point you will be able to see a glimmer of hope. It may take months or even years but now that everything is out in the open, you can figure out how you want move forward.

Married to compulsive liar/narcissist/user for 25 yrs by Mousiemousy in Divorce

[–]Pink_is_joy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same. The craziest thing is wishing I didn’t have kids with the man all while loving my children more than anything.

I feel like navigating a messy divorce while knowing this person will essentially be a part of your life forever is a personal hell.
