Leggs, I think you are winning, hands down...However I do not know the story of

Lou LOL

Nominee for Ex Husband

Meet Stanley

studying to be an alcoholic

charming, manipulative, never met a stranger

Every little old lady in grandma's nursing home LOVES him. Knows all

of their names and flirts with them.

Absolutely fabulous in bed....but it is due to experience....a LOT of

experience...with a LOT of women....even after marriage

gives wife a venereal disease that gyno discovers when testing for

infertility problems

Teases small boy children by tickling them...until they cry and then

makes fun of them for being babies

Steals " gifts " from boxcars in the railroad yard where he works:

gloves, cases of wine, hats, flashlights, and gives them to each and

every member of wife's family while announcing where he got them and

how easy it was to get them.

When wife requests counseling, agrees to attend, shows up 30 minutes

late, sits with arms crossed and scowl on face and repeats, " What

bullshit! " over and over. Psychologist later asks wife, " Why did you

marry this asshole? " Wife figures that is all of the counseling she

needs...

When threatened with divorce, he suspects wife is cheating on HIM and

follows her friends and aquaintances for " clues " Pushes redial on

phone repeatedly to see who she has been talking to (her mother...)

Calls 3 mos. after separation to inform now ex-wife that it MUST be

SHE who is infertile because he accidentally got one of his new

girlfriends pregnant. Wife has had 3 miscarriages and tried for 3

years to get pregnant. He refused to adopt a baby that " isn't his

flesh and blood. " New girlfriend, of course, has abortion.

Now, wasn't he a winner? I dated this guy for 7 years and was

married for 5 years. This truly answers the question, " Will fabulous

sex make up for anything? " Ladies, the answer is NO!!!!!

Sad thing about that is...I can actually top Russ.

Although he was not that bad to me during our 5 month relationship,

Alyx's real father is in prison for 45 years for raping his other 8

year old daughter. I think that qualifies him as being the worst

person ever.

What kind of loser was I!!!

I think we all had such low self esteem and lived on the idea that if

you suffered for your man, you'd eventually be rewarded. We told

ourselves that it really wasn't that bad as it was happening. The

emotional scars for all of us, regardless of severity, will be

forever. Time makes them lighter, but they never fully go away. I

had to examine really hard what it was about me that got me into

these relationships and I took a good long break from dating after my

divorce. I'm just glad I could put myself in a healthier state of

mind in order to have a healthy relationship.

I think perhaps you are in the lead ...

Okay, okay ...

That is the lowest form of life to slither on the earth. No doubt about it.

Why don't we just nominate and leave it at that.

This is getting to be very depressing.

UGH!

That is all that I can say. I am speechless.

I just don't know how some people can do things like that to themselves

(doing drugs to the point of disabling yourself like that).

I am glad that you finally left him. That is horrible to live through.

There was a lot of domestic violence in my house when I was growing up and I

couldn't live with it then, I still don't understand how anyone can go

through that and be sane.
