My ex-husband is the most manipulating person I have ever met, he was back then when I was married to him and even more so now.

Hypochondria - he has been ill with mysterious things as long as I can remember, from a young boy right until now. He has come up with all kinds of symptoms many things which have baffled the medical world. The theory with my family is that it is attention seeking and manipulating people to feel sorry for him.

The good mate - He will go over the top and out of his way to help anyone to benefit himself by being Mister Popular, good old Mr Reliable. Then in the next breath privately he would run them right into the ground.

I could go on but it would make me seem bitter and I am past all that now but our sons, my parents and I can see through him so crystal clear and he knows it.
