LMAO! Some of these are priceless!!

My OW said these gems:

(to my WH on a FB chat) Every single guy I've ever been with has cheated on me.

(to me after I told her BS what she and my WH were up to) I just wish (OBS) didn't have to get hurt like that.

(On FB) So, what is love to you? (followed by a lot of things my H told me he did to her (annoyed her, hung up, etc) saying these were not love)

(on FB) constantly saying how 'God is Good' and posting Christian phrases.

And my favorite:

(to me) seems like I'm always doing for others, and no one is doing for me. Gee, wonder why???

BTW, after my H, she had two other As, and then her BS threw her out. She was living with him, with her two daughters (not his) and not working, or doing anything other than cheating on him when he wasn't around. Right, but no one does for you. Uh-huh.

Are you sure she didn't post "I'm always doing others"?

"Being in love" first moved them to promise fidelity: this quieter love enables them to keep the promise. *CS Lewis*

The absolute worst thing MOW said to my H.

" God has failed us!!"

She texted him that when he moved back home and went NC.

HOW crazy does a person have to be to blame God because their affair ended??!

Also a few others:

"I always get what I want"

" we are soul mates, this is fate"

Let's see...

"I will win. Not immediately, but definately" (before DD)

"Caring about someone else's happiness is true love" (during DD)

"Unless it's true passionate everlasting love it's not worth it. There are too many mediocre things in life and love shouldn't be one of them" (after DD I think)

"It all looks good to the rest of the world.. You don't want to hear the truth, because you don't want your illusions to be destroyed." (After DD and the day after our anniversary). Her mom made a comment about don't worry, the truth always comes out. Bitch, you had your chance to tell the truth and you took the cowardly way.

You tell me...WTF do these things mean and who are they about if not my H. She has no boyfriend. She used to post a lot about God etc....my how the years and her "love" for my H have changed her.

I have to add that after one night when she drove to H work and I caught her leaving (he was starting NC and she still called and came by and he met her) she gave him the name of a song to listen to. D(umbass)H looked it up and the lyrics on YouTube. It was called 'Stay' by Miley Cyrus. I saw that he looked it up on his google history and confronted him. He tried to lie at first and then tried to explain why he would ever even look it up after he told her NC etc. here are some of the lovely words...

Well, it's good to hear your voice

I hope you're doing fine

And if you ever wonder,

I'm lonely here at night

I'm lost here in this moment and time keeps slipping by

And if I could have just one wish

I'd have you by my side

Oh, oh I miss you

Oh, oh I need you

And I love you more than I did before

And if today I don't see your face

Nothing's changed, no one can take your place

It gets harder everyday

Say you love me more than you did before

And I'm sorry it's this way

But I'm coming home, I'll be coming home

And if you ask me I will stay, I will stay

Well, I try to live without you

The tears fall from my eyes

I'm alone and I feel empty

God, I'm torn apart inside

I look up at the stars

Hoping you're doing the same

And somehow I feel closer and I can hear you say

Oh, oh I miss you

Oh, oh I need you

I love you more than I did before

And if today I don't see your face

Nothing's changed, no one can take your place

It gets harder everyday

Say you love me more than you did before

And I'm sorry that it's this way

But I'm coming home, I'll be coming home

And if you ask me I will stay, I will stay

Always stay

I never wanna lose you

And if I had to I would choose you

So stay, please always stay

You're the one that I hold onto

'Cause my heart would stop without you

My personal fav, which STBEX said she would often say

"If you think that you can make things work with your wife, then you should try."

Yes you are the best person to give marriage counselling.....did you say that before or after you had sex with him and broke up the marriage.

I'm somehow comforted to realize, from reading all of these, that people in affairs really are in their own world, thinking of only themselves. They are just caught up in the fantasy they have created.

Something else that OW said: When I recently asked my SAWH why he lost so many wedding rings (I only noticed one time during the 2 + year affair but now I know it was several thousands of dollars worth of wedding rings) which he said he took off to "lift weights."

His response was that OW thought "it was a sign of disrespect that he wears his wedding ring while out with her. She did not want to be seen in public with a married man." Well, here's a hint: don't date a married man and you won't have that problem.

^^ That is unbelievable.

I think the general sense of entitlement, going after what you want, having no regrets.. that's a big one. NO REGRETS. I JUST AM WHO I AM. IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT, TOO BAD. WHEN YOU'RE PERFECT YOU CAN JUDGE ME.

Also, 'If you were truly happy and in love with your wife, you would never have been tempted by another woman.' No, that's correct. Not even if you were in the middle of the darkest time of your life, and she came around day after day after day, throwing her bare bum at you.. no, you would nevvvver be tempted at all. It's all because THE WIFE did not do HER JOB. Umm hmmm.

They are completely delusional.

I'll never forget this one...

"I didn't encourage him to cheat. I encouraged him to find true love."

And after that jewel, she went on to say she encourages me to do the same.

Just call me Heart. :)

"I don't just do the safe thing." Presumably arguing that WH not leaving me for her was the "safe thing" for him to do.

Well, no duh you don't do the safe thing. Nothing's safe about having another man sleeping over at your house when your BH is out of town. (That's how OBH found out -- a neighbor spotted my unmistakable WH and his unmistakable car there overnight and told him.)

Also clearly not the safe thing: having sex with a married man with no condom and no birth control. Particularly when that man makes no secret of the fact that he hates kids.

So not safe: vandalizing the BW's car.

Least safe: "Falling in love" with a proven liar.

Yes, the OW and OP catchphrases are comical. Suddenly they all become philosophers, self-help gurus, inspirationalists, or Ghandi...follow your inner voice. It is what you make it. Unless its passionate its not worth it, only you can make you happy...

The one thing these thoughts all have in common is they are silly rationalizations, require zero logic or common sense and are open to a hundred different interpretations. Manipulation tools!

True quotes from the OWifetress.

"We didn't mean to fall in love." They apparently only meant to sleep around behind their spouses backs.

"What she calls an affair is actually a committed relationship." hmmm

"The truth won't set you free, forgiveness does." Meaning, you don't have to tell the truth you just have to seek forgiveness.

Troll, "You slept with her didn't you." her=me who didn't have a damn clue yet

FWH, "Yes I did. She's my wife!"

Troll, "You are cheating on me with her!! How could you?" WTF???
