Not Owned


Harley is a study in Stockholm Syndrome.    No man is worth that crap.
Today I am thankful that I realized that my stalkerish ex isn't done.  

No, my ex isn't done yet.

Not only does he have people feeling sorry for him because I threw him out (3 1/2 years after our divorce decree ordered him out)....

he doesn't understand what a divorce is.

Every few weeks, I get an email asking me to hunt down documents for him....once it was mail, then he claimed he didn't receive his mail, then it was for tax records he failed to forward to his new address, then he wanted his college transcripts.....now he wants the title to the van I gave him.

He wants the documents then he wants me to deliver them to him. 

He is always in crisis....

his new apartment has bedbugs,

his roommate is a recovering addict,

he was fired....again. 

He implies that it is my fault because he cannot live here.

I tried to give him the house in the divorce.  He didn't want it.  When I tried to move out, he'd threaten to move and leave the kids alone.  When I agreed to stay, he wouldn't leave.

This is a game to him.

After we divorced, I gave him my mini-van.  I'm still making payments but he needed the car for work.  I gave it to him in the hopes he would keep his job and eventually pay his child support.

Then he lost his job......again.....he got a new one.....lost it....and got another one....and was fired.

He left the title of the van here.  He wants to sell the van for scrap and I must deliver the title to him immediately in a parking lot somewhere. 

It took me years to save up for a lawyer.

We went to court.

The judge gave him 30 minutes on one day to pick up his stuff from my house by March 30th.  He's supposed to have a peace officer with him when he visits my home.

He took more than four hours the first day and came back a couple of weeks later. 

He never has a police officer with him. 

He is still consistently begging for documents/things.  I've had the VA thrift shop over here to take many of the things so the young lady living here has somewhere to park. 

Anyway, every two weeks or so.....he'll want some document that I don't know I have.

He'll tell me that I can find them on the computer, desk or on the kitchen table.....

like I haven't cleaned in the six months since he was ordered out or donated the computers to charity.

Then he'll want me to meet him to drop them off.

Every time he does this, I'll ask him if there is anything else he wants so we can get it out of the way.

He'll say no.

Then he'll want something else. 

*****************************

The worst part of it is that he'll promise to visit with the kids and wait until the last moment to make plans.  Once his last minute plans overlapped with a hypnosis client so I couldn't drive the kids around.

He promised to visit with them in two weeks.

He never did.

It's maddening.  I cannot afford to take time off of work to wait for him.

He's irresponsible.

I cannot afford to be irresponsible.

******************************

I really don't have time.

I'm looking for a job.....pronto.....because I'm not getting any of the court ordered child support or help from him.

I'm trying to grow my own business as well as take classes to learn new skills so I can provide for the kids without his help.

And he's trying to monopolize my time. 

It's maddening. 

I know what it's about.....

He's hoovering.

He's wanting my time and my attention. 

It's getting exhausting. 

I'm pretty sure that he's going to be homeless soon and I think the game is to try to get back into the house so he can live rent free again.

I took in a young lady whose nasty father threw her out.

I have no room for a stalkerish ex in my home.

I am a kind person. 

I just need to focus on what I want right now. 

Playing gopher for my ex just doesn't fit the bill any more.

Love ya lots,

S.

Stalker Proxy Phone Calls

What kind of songs do narcissistic stalkers sing?  I imagine they sing songs like this.   I am grateful now that I understand why the stalker has people call  but   wish they'd listen when I ask them not to call again.  I probably should document this somewhere.  My ex was talking to an old friend of mine from high school on a daily basis.  She is his cousin.   I had to quit talking to her when she'd ask me to plan parties and then refuse to give me the guest list saying that the attendees would only be me, her, my stalker Shannon, and my NPD mother-in-law.   She wanted me to plan interventions.   This happened with a baby shower.  It also happened with a wedding.  The in-laws put together a fake wedding trying to host an intervention to shame me and my ex into doing things for them (like quit school and give them my car).   I had to cut this so-called friend off over that in 2004....

The Love Gods Have a Sense of Humor

Today I am thankful about the ever-changeable, ever-humorous universe.   It is said that 'in life, the only constant is change.' Ah, this is a true tidbit, isn't it? I recently vowed NOT to date until Michael officially moves out of the house.  I also vowed NOT to be close to him unless he signs up for FOO (Family of Origin) and Relationship counseling.  I've been with the man nearly a quarter of a century, he's not going to go to therapy to have a relationship with me. He plays games with money, divorce agreements, custody arrangements, transportation, and all sorts of things to keep me stuck here.  It's nothing money and a lawyer can't solve.  ***** They say that dysfunctional people have three weapons that they use to keep people under their thumb.  The acronym is FOG. Yes, they are FOG machines. What does FOG stand for? F ear O bligation -and- G uilt Yes, there is fear.  Fear that he won't honor hi...

Personality Theory

Today I am thankful for personality theory. I can't say that I buy into it very much.  People change over the course of their lives.  Healthy people grow.  Unhealthy people either stay static or regress.  So what one tests today may change tomorrow. I do believe that personality theories (even ancient ones like astrology) create self-fulfilling prophecies.  If people buy into it, it gives a lot of insight into their characters, needs, and behaviors.   I've spent most of my adult life studying personality theories.  From Eric Fromm's theory's about authoritian -vs- mature personalities and how authoritians fear power while mature people revel in it to Jung's introvert -vs- extrovert theory.  A major one of interest to me is an offshoot of Jung, it is the MBTI type inventory.  When I'm happy, I'm a textbook INFJ. When I'm pissed off and wanting to strangle my ex, I act like a ESTP.  My ex is a ESTP a...
