There are two ways of spreading light:
Be the candle; or the mirror that reflects it

Don't ask why someone is still hurting you; ask why you keep letting them.What you allow continues.

At some point you have to get sick of going through the same sh!t.

Women are NOT rehabilitation centers for badly raised men. It is not your job to fix ,parent, raise or change him.
You want a partner not a project.

Mine looked for just the right vacuum for all the dog hair in his house.  Searched for 2 day and read about each one of them.  Finally found the right one, expensive but should do the trick.
He bought it a month and a half ago and has not so much as turned it on.  It sits in the closet.
 ::)

Then he searched for a dishwasher, bought just the right one and installed it.  His dishes have been piling up in the sink for 3 weeks.   Dishwasher empty.  :o

My X also collects clothes from sale items to thrift stores and doesn't wear them.  I think he has 15 jackets now.

I wonder if this could confusion is from hormones being out of whack.  You just can't make this stuff up.

I still think a couple of my favorites are:

"If we end up divorced, we should get remarried some day for a 'fresh start'".

Or probably the best one yet:

"If we both should end up remarried, we should have an affair with each other".   ;D

Thunder -
The vacuum story made me laugh.  Mine went searching for the best of the best vacuum for the cat hair in our house.  Bought a $1000+ Meile vacuum.  Then left home - without the cats - and took the vacuum with him - leaving me no vacuum at all!

Airmid,

Afterwards my X went and bought a huge dog that sheds like crazy.  The house is COVERED with hair but the vacuum still sits in the closet.  Sorry you have no vacuum.   ::)

One other thing my X said was...after looking around the house at the huge mess .."who lives like this"?   ::) ::)

I guess you do dear.

I really think it is depression.  It's like he just can't seem to do anything.

Thunder -
It's ok for now - I just borrow the vacuum from my neighbor.  But the selfishness is amazing.
I called him up when I saw the vacuum missing.  "Did you take the vacuum?"  I asked.
"Yes, I needed it".  He responded.
Pffft!

The best was, he had his eye set on the huge Electrolux super dooper washing machine.
Again an almost $1700 purchase after H had done "research".
He wanted to take is as "he had bought it". 
Really?  He bought it two years ago before any MLC was on the scene.
Also - he moved into a tiny third floor walk up studio apartment - which I am sure didn't allow washing machines.  So where was H most likely taking the washer?  I assume to the OW.

He didn't get it though.  I changed the locks before he could make another visit to the house.

Ugh - Ugh - Ugh
Why do I think I want this man back?
IDK - I must be crazy.

My H has been doing this too! He has more clothes now than he has had his entire life :o He goes to the thrift store and finds name brand stuff and is thrilled that he got them so cheap. Funny thing is that he knows the name brands! He never knew one brand from another, he never cared about brands before.
