18. Wears enough axe spray or other stinky stuff, so there's a cloud around him ,like Pigpen of the Peanuts cartoon.

I laughed at this one..my girls used to complain about this IN HIGH SCHOOL!! The boys would spray a cloud of this stuff so thick you could smell it when you walked passed the locker room!

And I know how you feel about the roof..the former mlcer I dealt with never finished anything either...

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.

Hahhha    ;D  ;D   ;D     Yes Wow indeed ... mine is particularly afflicted I think with delusions of Spanishness. He's completely bonkers ... he was brought up in North UK ... his dad was a 20 stone miner, his mum not much different!!  ... further removed from a flamenco dancer you could not get.

Totally bonkers. xxx

14. Posts dumb pictures on FB ,like pictures of himself having so much fun. Yes, everyone is sooo impressed by that picture of you sitting at a table with a beer bottle.

Laughed out loud at that one.

Well my W did not want to buy a boat but she told me two days after BD that she was going to get a rich man and live on a boat!! Then an old man. Oh and then an ugly man because good looking men are a$$holes. I took that as a compliment. These choices were all disclosed within 5 minutes of each other.......an old ugly rich man on a boat.

Wow, what a goal.

What a great thread!  This needs to be read when you start thinking that maybe your spouse isn't a typical MLCer.

Mine has/had:
Night sweats

Bought the new vehicle - a van for his bikes but I also use it and want 'joint custody'!

Hates his job and wants to change - difficult because there isn't enough equity in it to sell it

Took a huge interest in various super foods, and until he left was taking vitamins, etc.  Don't know if he still is.

Everyone is out to get him, make his day worse, annoy him deliberately

Started running and bought a home gym but that's stopped now.  He just walks and I use the gym  :)

Obsessed with how others have done so well in their business/job whereas he has worked twice as many hours (true, I'll give him that) and got no money and nothing to show for it - what have I done with all the money because the accountant aid the business has made a profit!!

Complains the friends of his age won't go bike riding (family men, responsibilities, hello!!) so now tries to get ones young enough to be his sons to go with him.  And then tries to be better than them.

Is learning Spanish with CD's.  It will help him when he is travelling overseas on his bike when he travels through South America and USA.  Not sure how much he actually knows yet!

When he was still living here he would trawl through YouTube listening to all the old head banging music.  We went to see Status Quo in concert too!  But also 'my old mans the dustbin man' and 'lily the pink' seemed to be played a lot.  Got really cranky when I disconnected the speakers and feigned concern about the computer  ;D

Yep, he is definitely in MLC  :)

H didn't go after a plane or a boat.  That's going to be me - I've recently ordered two inflatable kayaks!  I have no idea how to use them but D19 and I are going to have fun learning.  H can't complain about the $$$ either cos I used exactly half of the points accumulated on our credit card  :). Thinking about it, I bought a bikini recently too, the first one since I was 3 - does this mean I'm in  MLC?????

Nope.  Means you're in LBS!  It's the lbs diet, the mirror work & the new found freedom.

My friend's mlc h53 has had the ow for 2+ years now along with all the other cliches including condo, except, you guessed it, he recently bought a street motorcycle.  He had to book lessons because, he has never ridden a motorcycle...I think my friend should buy life insurance on him.  Speaking of which, if mlc really exists the insurance companies will be on it--refused due to mlc.
