The sleepless nights are killing me. I can't stand that my soon to be ex-husband goes on acting like someone he is not. It makes me sick. Worse than all the cheating is the act he puts on. It blows my mind!

The act kills me too. And it keeps me up sleepless too, not knowing which memories were real. I am determined not to let tonight be sleepless. I hope you get some decent rest too.

So sorry for both you . They work
Their magic to make us look bad . Try to stand your ground quietly and gracefully . The people that know you won't believe them . It's easier said than done at times , I know . Too bad narcissism isn't a terminal illness . **** them all.

@ misstolerant ... and others ...
Years ago a woman responded to one of my threads/discussions at "SG" with words I have held close ever since. It was about another event ... but the words apply in many applications. She said ...
"Those that know you ... know the truth. Those that do not ... do not matter".
It is consistent for the "unremorseful wayward" to try and make themselves look better at the expense of the "betrayed". It is just further evidence of their selfish nature to attempt to continue to get what they want ... no matter how much further damage they do to others.
Eventually the universe and karma have a nice way of playing catch-up ... and expect payment for the deeds of the "unremorseful wayward" immediately and in full ... when the "unremorseful wayward" least expects it.
That gives me the reason to hold my head up.

Sorry....it is hard in the beginning...they are in their fantasy fog world and disconnect from the ones they love. I remember her sleeping like a baby, working out and listening to fun music right after she told me...while I cried myself to sleep, had panic attacks and could barely walk around the block with our baby son. Not sure how they deal with the guilt when they come down to earth...maybe some of them eventually want to make things right but can't face the guilt so instead they double down with the affairs and disconnecting. I had to eventually get some decent sleeping pills to help me sleep in the beginning.
