I have an ex-wife that's absolutely batshit nuts outside of being a mother. That she's halfway good at, but in every other respect she's crazy.

Ok I've always wondered how this happens. I don't mean any disrespect truly. But how do you manage to marry a batshit nuts woman? Did she not reveal herself early on? Did she turn this way from hormones after she had kids? Don't take this as me giving you a hard time, I'm just trying to figure out men. How do so many men end up marrying crazy bitchy women? I mean are they sweet when they start out or were there ominous signs? [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] (And if we were to get her take on it would she say you were batshit crazy too?)

I think I can take a run at an answer since I am one of those with am Ex-Wife we refer to as "The Bitch From Hell"!

When I first met her I was 20 or 21 and had moved from Ohio to Wisconsin with the goal of getting my act together, spunging off of Mom and Dad and getting back into school. Problem was twofold.
One was I was just miserable after leaving a pretty serious girlfriend back in Ohio. I actually laid in plans to move back to go to school and be closer to her. I went back to Ohio and got a place to live lined up enrolled in school had financial aid all worked out and a job lined up. Then this gal breaks up with me. Just crushed me. I turned around and left Ohio that day even though I had everything lined up to stay. Went back to WI and that is when problem number two cropped up. I was now used to living away from home on my own and just couldn't stand being at home with my parents, well my mom in particular. I spend a lot of time miserable, depressed, drinking a lot and just working my ass off.

So, I meet this girl and she seems nice enough. Lives on a farm with really nice parents (who I actually get along with really well still to this day). She is into me and she has sex with me and after being so lonely and miserable she was like a lifeline back to sanity. Only problem was I didn't see that she was a dumbass dullard with a chip on her shoulder. We get married and I think everything is great. I am working we have a kid and things seem OK but I start to notice she is way more worried about herself and "things" than me or our son. I think the thing that finally opened my eyes was a car wreck we were in together. We were coming back from a dance and hit a patch of Black Ice and slid through a "T" intersection, going through a barbed-wire fence and hitting a tree. We were not going all that fast but it still hit the tree fairly hard. My first though and statement is to see if she is all right and the first, and only, thing she does is start yelling my about wrecking her car!

After this the light kind of went off over my head and I started to see what a nut case she really was. We end up divorced and things never got any better after that. I might have to post some of the stories about her they are good ones!

Anyway, I think a lot of guys are blinded by a woman that they are "in Love" with. Especially if you throw in a woman who will actually sleep with him and he loses all rational thought. Kind of like lust or love goggles if you will.

That's my take on it.
