i am rambling incoherently today

Friends, please pardon me for just venting and venting and venting today. For nearly 10 months I have REPRESSED my true emotions and pretended that I am really quite fine even though I have am recently breaved ( emotionally/spiritually) of the one and only man i ever loved and lost...

I wrote about my utter desolation in my own blog, but somehow that does not feel the same as writing at this forum. Here, I feel a great comforting in knowing that at least some of you would read my post without thinking that i am an utter loser who knows only to whine.

I really don't know what to do. One by one I am losing every bit of interest and zest that i had in life. I understand that I have to fight the dementors in my head and somehow learn to be happy in life...

it is so hard to describe every nuance of this loneliness... there is nobody to share my life with except my child...see, there is no guy in my life now even though NH is still around notionally. He is in the house for a brief few hours, and during that time he is non stop texting to that woman or speaking to her. I feel like such a discarded piece of garbage nowadays. I cook and clean and keep house, but my husband has given his ALL...( financials, devotion, vacations) to that woman exclusively.

I cant help recalling that 20+ years back when we were newly married...he did shower me with bizarre and fanciful attention and dedication. I am thinking today...what if.. what if I had never called him out on his duplicity, his lying, his carelessness etc which began once our child turned 4? IF i had just kept quiet...would he have continued to give me some respect and love??? I am saying...would he have shared at least 2% attention for me???

Then I remember how he removed my name from our joint bank account, and suddenly cancelled my add on credit card, and the series of raging for inconsequential reasons had already begun...

i do feel so sad and helpless and wounded today...more than i have felt before. earlier...it used to be like me mentally ANGRY as hecks and HURT with what he did and continues to do...

Till about 7 months ago he still would have sex with me and weirdly it would make me think...'Oh...maybe he is not really sleeping around ..."

BUT few months ago, every possible evidence/proof fell into my lap and there was no way i would sleep with him again.

I did not inform him about the information/proof that came my way. I just said some hokum pokum and left my marital bed of over 2 decades.

Friends, it really deeply HURTS that...for the rest of life i will never have sex again. Somehow, it does not make me happy to even think of another man touching my body or soul. What is saddening me immensely is this ABRUPT ENDING of a marriage. Emotional ending. He has not divorced me yet. And it is hurtful to think that he has zero attachment for me or child.

he would cold bloodedly turn me out without a backward glance because i am not available for sex. I am thinking EVEN if i had made myself available to him...which I was all these years and years... he would still do exactly what he did.

after all....where was the need for him to promise marriage to this newest ow when he has not even mentioned divorce to me?

I am very confused and upset today.

what bothers me most is that why am i still so thinking of our love and marriage when he has so disgustingly slammed everything that i held sacred?

I think I have rambled too much and so incoherently today. Just once i wanted to speak out what my heart feels.

Thank you for reading.

it is so futile...whatever i think or not think.

he doesnt care about me...and i still do care so much about him..

am i some kind of deranged creature i wonder

this is what happened to

this is what happened to me...sharing a page which is one of the gems i had found on the www, and added to my blog http://galbtdt.blogspot.com/2011/09/narc-otic-abuse.html ::::::Before long she may start manically checking up on him, ringing him constantly, crying, pleading and trying to gain comfort and support from him. When this cycle intensifies he has her controlled. He can treat her appallingly and she will always be attached to him trying to win his love, protection, honesty and support. Please understand what is so frightful: by association women see their love partner as their ‘rock’, their support and their backbone – and this is soul-destroying when you believe the very person destroying you is this man. Welcome into the deadly capes of Count Dracula where the cruelty, contempt and malicious delight begins. Love partner = wife/ow::::::::: this is a terrible situation to be in after investing over 2 decades in a marriage/relationship. to stay..one has to lose one's self respect completely, to quit one has to lose all financial support and any kind of support... damned if i stay, damned if i leave.

to freaked from berseba

i feel like you. i was married 30 years and he does not now know who i am or who his kids are... he lives in my home with her and her kids and she drives my car now ..... they took advantage of the fact that when i found out the whole sin,back in november... i left for my parents house completly dead with the kids and they moved in ... to my home and are using my belongings and household stuff and everythung else....she is his x best friends wife ...and he left her for being a tramp...and my husband goes and gets her from a dancing stripping whoring place.we do not recieve a penny or a text or anything from him .....DEAR GOD WHO WERE WE MARRIED TO??????????? i am asking GOD for justice and in november i will file for a divorce if i can afford it, i am working very hard just to pay the bills and eat while he lives a life of luxuary and comfort. i feel exactly like you he was my everything and i lived for him and my kids that was my happiness and my world but i also pray to God to someday send me a new wondewrful man who will respect and love me because i have so much more love to give and want......the ones we had apparently had AN EXPIRATION DATE ON THEM THAT WE NEVER SAW...but he that is of no more ...is best to be rid of... because we can not hold someone who is holding on to another ...we can not knowingly share our spouse with another and just wait for the crumbs left over ... saturdays and sundays are especially hard for me as so are the evenings and i can never stop my heart from wondering what they are doing ..that we should be doing with him...GOD SEES ALL AND WE MUST HAVE FAITH THAT HE WILL LOOK AFTER US AND THEY ARE ALREADY AT A LOSS BECAUSE THEY HAVE LOST US ...WHO LOVED THEM SO , FOR SO LONG...........

Berseba, i am not at all

Berseba, i am not at all surprised after reading your post. this is precisely how narcs operate, worldwide. NH cleaned out my propert, assets, jewellry, and made me quit my high flying job, and then cornered me and jabbed me with insults and shameless hurtings and also his extramarital affairs...each one subsequently more horrible than the previous fling. now he has written off his Will to a professional hooker who he plans to be married to soon. long week ago during the last time i had snooped, this is what i noted. i hope you win the legal case. i cannot go to court because if i did, i would not get any justice, settlement, or safety. things are unimaginably horrible..as i am reading in each and every post on this forum. are your parents loving and supportive for you and kids? I am praying that they are good folk. in my case, my sibling is such a dangerous creature...that i am preferring the hellishness of my NH rather than get swallowed up by my sibling. it's like walking between the devil and deep blue sea for me here. I too have my last and final hope only in God. only God can order a miracle to save people like us.

I Feel Your Pain

How can all this be and yet it is. I am so scarred I can't even go to a male doctor anymore. If a male coworker says or does something nice, I am distrustful and suspicious. Towards the end of our relationship, I really just felt like the unpaid nanny/housekeeper. That's not okay. It is a bit like chemical withdrawal when you stop having sex abruptly. We women release oxytocin during sex which bonds us to our partner. Not really sure where I'm going with this, but don't worry that you'll never have sex again. No one knows what the future will bring. Hugs

Thank you for sharing your

Thank you for sharing your thoughts ordinarycourage. life has become so bleak here that I am hanging on to every message here for consoling my broken heart. somehow, i never thought i would see a day like this. the exposure happened so fast that i really had no time to even contemplate. once i saw documented evidence that my husband has now started having sex with a professional hooker and that they plan to get married soon after getting rid of me..i was shocked beyond anything. well, i took a decision to just not confront him...no use..he will LIE and also use it as excuse to abandon me without financial support. how terrible life becomes once we discover the truths. all these years also he was cheating. but i did not have documented proof...hence i had given him benefit of doubt. thank god i did not contract any STD. otherwise the bastard would have said I am the philanderer...when truth is I have never ever strayed.. i hope this desolate dejection passes and cloud lifts someday soon. i also long to feel safe and secure in life. now if this husband would just come out with it, give me a suitable settlement and request me to buzz of...i will do so. i won't try to leech on to him when he does not want me. i too am paranoid these days...no way i will have a new man ..no chance. no way. i would not like it.. in my life, my husband was the only man for me... i cannot get intimate ever again.

I was living that life early

I was living that life early last year, I stayed in the house for almost 4 months after the shit hit the fan and I caught her with the new supply-man. Here I am over a year later and things are much better and so much different than I could ever imagine. I pray that you get clarity and strength and wisdom. You sound very normal considering the circumstances, its just that the circumstances suck! Only a narc could survive comfortably in that environment. Make some boundaries for yourself, and do nothing for him anymore. Figure out how to cut him off from any emotion from you. He gets off on you being sad and wanting it the way it maybe once was. Ignore his requests, dont answer if he ever calls when he is away, give him nothing but indifference. Practice this until you figure out how to physically get away from him. Giving him anything gets you nothing, so give him nothing, no food, no sex, no laundry...Once the trust is gone we are done whether we like it or not! ds

DS, thanks a lot for your

DS, thanks a lot for your understanding response. Problem is, I have to do the cooking, the laundry, and answer his call/text msg when he communicates just to assert his control over the wife/housekeeper that I have been reduced to. when i get a chance to leave, I will leave. He won't even expect any explanation from me anyway. what a way this life got wasted. i am unable to go away right now as i don't have a job nor a chance of getting one to cover living/med expenses. i am resigned to the reality that a postgraduate woman with good IQ got brought down to this state...by just 1 narc..the only man in my life.. and he finished me off ruthlessly. I dare not confront him regarding OW as that would only make it easier for him to throw me into the street and harass our child. i really didn't have a chance because i have no family or friends to support me at least initially. at least... i can vent and rant here. this is the one and only mercy left in my life. it is really a blessing that you were able to get away from your narc. i do believe it is by the grace of God that a victim can escape. it feels horrible to be living a caged life...and for no fault of mine.

Jelickuk, thank you so much

Jelickuk, thank you so much for responding to my post now. I have been feeling really very depressed today..no idea why. Last week I had pretended to myself that I shall overcome this tragedy in my life with humour and jesting and brawny approach. But, today is a very different day. Your reply sharing that you too are suffering same as mine mental agonies, made me feel i have a friend who understands without judging me. you know, i am so tired of being judged by people around me all the time. I can never be ME... the ME is a quiet, loving, trusting, reliable soul... and these traits which are inherent in me have been systematically attacked and damaged. I found a site today which indicates i could be suffering from AvPD...and maybe this shyness and insecurity which i have eventually led my husband to seek others? See, when i was married off..i was given no time to adapt to entirely and drastically new environment. My married family expected perfection from me...they failed to accept me as an individual personality. too many things happened...too many demands and then I cracked up and raged against my husband. today i don't even know whom to blame because he got himself a parallel life and I am left with no life. I was reading this website http://ivy_league0.tripod.com/rhyme_of_the_ancient_wanderer/id45.html and thought...yes, I was shy and insecure...then who wouldnt be when suddenly thrust into a new and unfriendly environment? I was always 100% loving to my husband and used to bend over backward to please him. but his weird friends certainly werent my cup of tea and so many cracks appeared due to my not being able to entertain his weird friends and weird relatives. Is there any use in my going deeper and deeper and deeper into this issue i wonder. I need to now gather strength of will power to ACCEPT the fact that my life is now f*&*ed up beyond salvation. whether i stay or go nc...it does not matter anymore. Nothing matters anymore. because now i can never ever be intimate with my husband after seeing he has started living-in with that woman. his earlier affairs had not ravaged my psyche... somehow we had patched up. this time the question does not even arise.
