Quote From: waihini1OMG! This subject is near to me and my home.
I too married the grand faker- he did all the "right things" when we met, dated, were engaged and the first year to almost 2 yrs we were married, then close to our 2nd anniversary, he warped into someone I didn't recognize. He became distant and cold towards me, all romance halted except for the sex, of course he still wanted that (back then anyway, not now). All the cards he sent, be it ecards or real ones stopped, he didn't want to take me on 3 vacations a year, but now it was down to ONE and it was always some place HE wanted to go, I had no say in it. I found various "clues" that pointed toward him cheating but never could really prove it totally, it was just an insidious feeling that hung in the air between us.
He has his own cell phone and got calls in the middle of the night, one time I got into his voice mail and found some female voice left a message that said, hey sexy, I miss you call me soon. I confronted him about this message and he claimed he had NO idea who that was and no he wasn't cheating, BUT from that time on he made damn sure he turned his phone off at night, hid it from me and if it was visible he deleted all the call history on it, so I didn't see who he was calling or who was calling him.
I have tried over and over to communicate with him about problems that I see we have, tried to get him to counseling with me too (he went one time then refused to go again as "he didn't have any problems and didn't need to go". Each time I tried to tell him of my unhappiness, he would turn things around on me, and make it sound like I was crazy or he would get mad and tell me he is going to divorce me. This has been going on now for almost THREE yrs. I cannot keep living like this, this man behaves like he hates me not loves me- he ignores me most of the time he is home, the other times he acts all nice nice so he can manipulate me into giving him sex once a month! I am not allowed to see my family and have to spend time with his family constantly- they come first in his life, always will and I am not considered part of this family unit, nor are my children or grandchildren by this man
All I can say to you is leave if you can as things will only get worse and you will only get more and more unhappy.
I think I was married to him before you. Didn't he convince you to sell your business? People wonder why you don't just leave don't they. Because he has you boxed in at this point. Your money has become his money, probably tied up in the house you built together, along with the pickup you bought together, along with the travel trailer you bought together, etc. All of which are now "his" and you no longer have any money. And you are isolated, aren't you, from friends and family. And whatever is wrong betwen the two you, he is convinced that it is your fault, and sometimes he almost has you believing you ARE crazy, like he tells you. Counselors and pastosr won't help, because he initially has them believing he is the nicest guy in the world. When they begin to figure out he is not what he seems, he won't see that person again.
When we divorced, he took everyhing (but I'll bet that's not the way you heard the story) and I got nothing. But I got out with my life, no matter how much it cost me.
Oh, and has he told you that he knows how to kill and dispose of a person without anyone ever suspecting a thing?
And he HAS been married more times than he led you to believe, and there were no annulments (as in "That was annulled, so it doesn't count). Sound familiar?
It will never get better, no matter what you do or how hard you try. I know that for a fact. Contact me if you need to hear any more about him.
