My Soap Opera Life

clive@burroughs69.fsnet.co.uk — Sun, 17 Aug 2008 01:00:00 +0100

My wife and I have been together 8 years, married 7, happiest times of my life (or so I thought). Then I found out she had an affair with my"best friend", and moved out for six months, leaving me with our 2year old daughter. When that went pear shaped she came back, sorry for the mistake and we were going to make it work, but of course it had been my fault for driving her to him as I wasn't giving her the love and attention she deserves.

This blogging seems to be very therapeutic. I was really encouraged by the three replies to my first blog, SOMEONE OUT THERE CARES. I would like to reply to the people who commented below

Thanks for the comments, I am sure that you are correct in that the emotions one experiences come in different orders for different people, sorry to hear that you are having to cope with loss at the moment, loss is a difficult emotion to deal with as there does not appear any way to [...]

Why wont she tell anyone about her new man?

greenharte@ntlworld.com — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 01:00:00 +0100

Firstly I would like to say this blogging is great, I can not believe how much I change day to day.

After ten years I found out the lady I thought I knew so well was having an affair. Now I know everyone will say this but she really was not the type, I have asked her who her new fellow is and she has told me lie after lie. For example she told that he was 30, divorsed and had two kids then on Monday she said that none of this was true and she will not even tell me his real age.

Just when you think its getting better...

cmason.home@yahoo.com — Wed, 21 May 2008 01:00:00 +0100

...something comes along and knocks you down.

I thought I was doing so much better. My son went away for 9 days with his mother. I had a really hard time, but the report back was that he was doing okay on this visit, which made me feel much better about the whole thing.

I drove to California to pick him up the day before Mother's Day, and I met with his mother for a bit before she went back to her house. There wasn't much for us to say to eachother, so I guess that mea [...]

Bank Holiday

rob.mcdonagh@uk.tesco.com — Tue, 06 May 2008 00:00:00 +0100

So after months of using wiki I find myself writing a blog. So what's changed - I've been much happier since my x2b is no longer in the same house as me even though there appears to be a new (boy) friend on the scene!

Yesterday my 7 year old told me about visiting some friends for a BBQ with her sister, mum, mum's (boy) friend and his daughter. They'd gone to visit some friends of my x2b and myself that I'm still quite friendly with.

It struck me that my child [...]

Be careful what you write to an Ex.

An age old story.

The best Friend who thought your nest looked better than his.

I was married for 14 years before I found out that she who cant be named had been having an affair with someone who had the audacity to call himself my best friend for over three years. Yes true love is blind. I truly never seen it coming. The day I found out, having been told by my eldest son,( I have four children), I came home that evening to my clothes sitting on the front lawn in the rain. A nig [...]

Normal People ?? !!

mattcscott@hotmail.co.uk — Tue, 11 Mar 2008 00:00:00 +0100

Is it me ?? Is this real ??

My stbx bloke who she had the affair with rang me from her mobile threatening me and going all crazy on Saturday night - but get this - by the end of the 20 minute call he was crying saying the she was only using him as a stop gap !!

I got off the call and thought did that just happen ?? Sounds like they are well suited . My new word for them is "mentalists" !!

Oh and I couldnt let slip to her that my nick name [...]

crossroads

ricky.allan62@hotmail.co.uk — Tue, 26 Feb 2008 00:00:00 +0100

i guess it was bound to happen sooner or later, but when it does it dont make it any easier. You see my STBX and her BF are trying to play happy families with his boys and scott my son, all along so far they have not wanted to be with their dad when she has been around. However that has changed and they will now stay at his place when she is there. Now one of the boys was my sons best friend untill all this happened, but they are in the same class at school and still play with each other, and [...]

Introducing New Partners

pjismyboo@hotmail.com — Sun, 24 Feb 2008 00:00:00 +0100

Can't remember where I got this information from now think it was from another website but having chatted with members in the forum this afternoon thought it might be useful to post here. Obviously it is written for the scenario of men introducing their children to new partners but is equally appropriate for women introduing their children to new partners too.

One of the most stressful things you can do as a separated father is to introduce your children to your new pa [...]

Naming the other person

ian.johnson@uk.insight.com — Fri, 11 Jan 2008 00:00:00 +0100

My wife has now left me no choice but to file for divorce, but what benefits if any, is there to naming the man she had the affair with?

I am asking as I have agreed not to tell my stepson that the reason we are splitting is she had an affair and my stbx does not want her ''lovers'' name on it in case her son ever finds out.

Advice please??

PS thanks for all the help guys this site is keeping me going at the moment.

Thanks Again

No conscience...

cmason.home@yahoo.com — Wed, 21 Nov 2007 00:00:00 +0100

Sometimes the complete lack of respect for another person's feelings astounds me. I can never imagine intentionally making an effort to hurt someone else with no remorse or conscience.

This evening, I was having a conversation with my mother in-law about the upcoming American holiday to give thanks for the land our ancestors stole from the Native Americans. We eat turkey and watch football to show our gratitude. While on the phone, my x2b calls my cell twice, lea [...]

Looking towards the future...

cmason.home@yahoo.com — Tue, 20 Nov 2007 00:00:00 +0100

This weekend was not what I expected, nor was the outcome of the events that followed.

There is good news and bad news...then more good news.

I dropped off my son at his daycare Friday morning and headed off to Las Vegas for a job interview I've been anticipating for a couple of weeks. My x2b was going to pick up my son and I had expected that she would not be alone, so I warned the teachers at the daycare so they would not be surprised. My [...]

The first single dad weekend

rew.mason@hotmail.co.uk — Mon, 29 Oct 2007 00:00:00 +0100

It went well. I was sooo nervous but no need really. We did ‘stuff', snuggled on the sofa and watched CBeebies, stuck fluorescent stars on her bedroom ceiling (that was fab!! Really brilliant!!!), went shopping, did colouring in etc. etc. etc. etc. All ‘normal' stuff for a ‘normal' weekend.

Someone on this site gave me some advice a while ago. It was something like, don't try and make it ‘the best weekend ever' because you will set yoursel [...]

Another good day today

rew.mason@hotmail.co.uk — Tue, 25 Sep 2007 00:00:00 +0100

Day life ended +6

Today's feeling = Still being positive

X2B is off to see a pychiatrist ths afternoon in Málaga, I hope that goes well for her. She's taken her bloke for comfort and not me. This was a strange feeling but with the experience of the last few days I have accepted that I am no longer going to be the one who is "there for her".

C'est la vie.

I'm off to pick up our daughter at wife's best friend' house in a minute [...]
