RoysPlayThing 0 #1 September 17, 2004 Am I the only one that still has issues after 5 years with an ex husband or ex wife?? This man is the devil.. So bitter that I left his abuse even after all this time, that he is childish enough to even hurt me with our children. WTF is up with some people??... He still gets to me on the damn phone when he puts on his acts and controls my life! Am I the only unfortunate one out there that is going through this? What hurts me most is he is hurting our children more than anything. MEAN PEOPLE SUCK!!! Sorry... I really had to vent this one. _______________________________________________ My mind is like a parachute...it functions only when open. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RoysPlayThing 0 #7 September 17, 2004 Thank you turtlespeed... And Nick.. yeah, I know its mind over matter.. but even though I tried really hard for him not to upset me, it threw me into a seizure last night... so If he controls me to such a strong point of stress.. what can I do about it? _______________________________________________ My mind is like a parachute...it functions only when open.

D22369 0 #10 September 17, 2004 He still gets to me on the damn phone when he puts on his acts and controls my life*** hang up on him when he starts his shit..., communication via telephone is totally voluntary. Just tell him your too busy for his childish shit, then "click"...... do it everytime, he will eventually figure it out.... RoyThey say I suffer from insanity.... But I actually enjoy it.

jtval 0 #11 September 17, 2004 I gotta agree. to some extent you are letting him cause this shit. I know there are kids involved so you HAVE to put up with some of it. but people treat us the way we conditioned them to treat us. ( did that read correctly?) when you were involved with, um let's call him dickhead. when you and dickhead were involved, somehow he convinced you to let him treat you progressively worse until you had enough. ( i am assuming if he lives up to his name that his name was the same when you were married...DICKHEAD that is.) but now that you are not involved you dont have to deal with dickhead's crap anymore. now you have to condition him to deal with you on YOUR level. hang up when he lives up to his name. he will learn . (my guess is he's still playing his games b/c he still wants you back)My photos My Videos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you for your advise... it is true.. you said it pretty well. I did very well on the phone... but then once I hung up (finally) I broke down. I really Love the good name you gave him! Quote(my guess is he's still playing his games b/c he still wants you back) Yes... This is what I think, because I feel if he would just go on with his life, He would be happy enough to not try to continue to hurt me. _______________________________________________ My mind is like a parachute...it functions only when open.

miked10270 0 #18 September 17, 2004 Ahhh...Communications issues with an ex can seem so complicated... But there is a simple solution. For example: "Honey, I'm a bit busy just now. How about you DIE... BASTARD... and get in touch through my Ouija Board?" Then (important!!) DO NOT HANG UP What you do is place the phone face down on a handy cushion and go away to the kitchen. Have a cigarette (if you smoke). Make a coffee. Hell, make a 7 course cordon-bleu meal... Anything, secure in the knowledge that he is telling the cushion / carpet / table all his pish. Of course, he'll call again (and again),... And you'll say (and repeat as necessary)...: "Honey, I'm a bit busy just now. How about you DIE... BASTARD... and get in touch through my Ouija Board?" once again leaving him to talk to the carpet / cushion / table. Note to add: This is actually a form of I.Q. test. You take a peak I.Q of 200, and divide by the number of times your Ex calls to find his I.Q. E.G. Calls once and takes the hint is I.Q of 200/1 = smart ex. Calls 8 times is I.Q 200/8=25 - Roadside Melon Seller. Mike. Taking the piss out of the FrenchAmericans since before it was fashionable.

PhillyKev 0 #22 September 17, 2004 I tried your method. It resulted in a IQ in the decimals due to the number of calls, followed by her calling the police and making up shit about me since it pissed her off. psychos suck. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

trey922 0 #25 September 17, 2004 jtval has excellent advise! I've actually had to use that tactic when I left my wife 2 years ago. She would call up hysterical non stop for the first week. After just a few times I got fed up with it, tried to tell her to calm down if she wanted to talk about things, which she wouldn't, then I just hung up the phone. When she called right back I just let it go over to voice mail. (thank god for caller id and voice mail) After about a week she caught on and calmed down. She did have a few relapses over the next couple of weeks, but I just went back to step 1. and let voice mail do the rest. Fortunately I've got the new version of voice mail that lets you hit '3' and delete the message without having to listen to the whole thing! Fortunately since then we've still managed to stay friends, after some of the divorce horror stories I've heard, kinda' makes me feel lucky. Hope everything works out for you! -Trey Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
