My Story Picking up the pieces of my broken heart
#80: September 08, 2025, 01:38:17 AM
I heard there is a thread for the stupid reasons MLC’ers dump their spouses, well my H says i didn’t go dancing with him (years ago) and sometimes i have farted when sitting next to him on the couch. Okay then? Maybe he could have let me know back then when these things happened that they are a deal breaker for him!

Here is the last version. In the first post, there is a link to the earlier thread as well... .

A "friend" will not "stand by you" no matter what you do. That is NOT a friend. That is an enabler. That is an accomplice.
A REAL friend will sit you down and tell you to your face to stop being a firetrucking idiot before you ruin your life and the lives of those around you.

You are so honest, authentic, raw and vulnerable. While that invites being hurt more and deeper, in the end I think it allows you to heal on your journey whereas the MLCer puts their pain in a bubble/cyst and just allows it to fester or grow. I guess you could say it´s an emotional abscess. You either lance it or get sepsis. Maybe the best outcome of continued MC is that he starts individual sessions.
