All posts are the nest

Is that the right title? Ha.

Seriously - I don't have the energy to respond to these posts. Why does the OP put up with such a crappy marriage? He's telling her to her face that he doesn't respect her. WTF else does she need to know to get out of that situation?

Re: All posts are the nest

  • It makes me sad for her. I have been cheating on TIP a little with ML but don't feel like I know the board well enough yet to jump in and tell her to leave his azz, but really. I don't understand it.
  • I knew that was going to be the post you linked. I lurk on ML a lot and she seems like such a fun, awesome person. I'm sad for her that she stays with him. Although it seems she is much closer to leaving than she used to be.

    I hope so.

  • She posted on SO a few days ago.  I'm assuming she's dipping a toe in the water.  I hope she follows through - I'd pack her house myself if it got her away from that azzhole.

    This is my siggy.

    Me too. I just want to go to where ever she is and give her a big hug.

  • I rarely look at ML, but man. A bunch of their Hs are pants-wetting over a weekend trip.

  • Maybe I'm in the minority here, but damn.... Either dump his ass or quityerbitchin' already because ::newsflash:: he was an *** yesterday, he was an *** today, and he'll be an *** tomorrow.  HTHYWIA

    I like Floyd, I think she's pretty nice from what I've seen of her, but c'mon, girl, put your big girl panties on and just rip the bandage off already.

  • Their marriage seems to be full of double standards. If my husband was always putting his mom, dad, brother, and everyone else before me and our children, I just can't see myself putting up with it. I imagine him as a nice guy, but a terrible terrible husband. She says he's a great dad, but there is no question that she does most of the childcare herself, even though she is also employed full time. 

    I agree with everything that muddled said. You should listen to her. -ESDReturns
  • Yep.

  • Do any of you guys (besides ESD) know what she's referencing when she talks about her H's brother's bachelor party?  She was essentially 3 days away from giving birth with 2 (or 3, I always forget) kids to take care of and he up and decided to go to his brother's bachelor party in Vegas.  So that's what makes his anger about her going to the gtg even more laughable.

    Nothing will fix this azzhole.  Nothing.  I hope she comes to terms with that soon.  She wonders why she's always so depressed.  Look at the azzhole sleeping next to you and there's your answer!

    It wasn't Vegas. It was New Orleans, in the middle of a tropical storm.

    You're giving him more credit than I am, LOL.  I think he's just a selfish azzhole who doesn't think of his spouse as family. 

    This is my siggy.
  • All I can say is that I feel your frustration, and have been there myself, but as friends, we have to just be there for her.

    I am excited beyond belief that she has even mentioned leaving; that has never, ever been on the table before.  It's a HUGE step, for those of you that are intimate with the backstory.

    I was thinking that if I wasn't his spouse, it wouldn't bother me any. Perhaps you are right, though. 

    And, Lappy, yes, of course you are right. Her whole situation sucks and I hope that she does something to change that.

    Yes.  YES.  Logically, she probably knows, for the most part, everything everyone on the outside looking in does.  Emotionally, she's getting there.  She really is.

    Totally.  I've been rooting for her from my little corner of the Internet.  When I saw her post on SO I did a mental jump-up-in-the-air.

    Hee. Ok, you are better at counting than I am. Apparently the only numbers I know are zero, one, and bunch.

    I agree ltp. I also did what you did bowies. It might have been a little fist pump lol.

  • I hope that Floyd is close to pulling the trigger on that marriage. I think she will feel one thousand times better if she does. She seems way too nice to stay with that jerkoff.
