MC,

Thank you for writing these! For months I got, we need to separate. The D word was never brought up,
She waving it around now but I feel that’s because the A is putting some pressure on.
And the reasons I was a bad husband? I worked too much, wasn’t affectionate all the way to:I don’t know why, your such a great guy.

Yeah that great guy thing always comes back to bite the husband. How dare we!!!! (I am not trying to minimize your plight just trying to see the humor in these things)

The two I saw on other posts that stood out:

I never buy breaded chicken
The dog is too fat

And I thought mine had lost the plot……

A couple more that are coming to me.....

I am dead inside.
I cannot help my feelings and they are facts.
This is not about hate
I cannot open my heart strings to be able to be a spouse anymore

Wouldn't you hate a psycho timebomb?? And what the heck are heart strings and how does one open or close them??

"You need to allow me to fly the nest" - I don't know why I only just remembered that. Too weird, but if regression is a thing - there it is folks

I usually skip these discussions because my literal narcissist husband was...well, a literal narcissist, who just happened to also exhibit signs of MLC.
But just to say how common the theme is, right after BD, he was over the top obsessed with a song called Bent to Fly, sang it constantly and even mentioned having some lyrics tattooed on himself. You can read the lyrics for yourself, it makes me cringe too hard:

(Incidentally, right after he left, he initially lived for a few months in a tiny apartment on Fraternity Row on a college campus of which he was not in any way affiliated.)

KD-

Funny you say regression. I forgot about this until I read your post.

Pre BD she had wanted to have wings for dinner and asked if I could make them because she couldn't do them as well as I can. So I waited until she got home. When she came home, she asked where the wings were. I said I thought we could make them together that way she could learn, She let out this repulsive teenager sound that was like a combination of sigh and clearing the throat. Never heard that from her before that......

Mine pirouetted around the kitchen singing "Let me go, Let me go" from Frozen - which was quite a sight whilst I was trying to cook the family dinner....

"Let me go, Let me go, I can't hold it back anymore" - It was quite a good rendition actually and delivered with real venom.
