Man I've been doin the therapy part. Discovering the images of another dudes dick with the naked photos of your wife she sent does something really fucked up to the brain.
Really fucked up. I mean I'm a lot better than I was, but shit dude, it... Fucks you up. A year and a half since that discovery, 5 years since she had the affair. At my current state I'm ok being single, because I don't ever want to go through anything remotely so painful again
Yes.
That's his whole thing. In fact he had a book made about it. He'd sell out his family if it made him more money, and I'm not entirely sure he hasn't.
Man, you can bet your ass had this been a policy here I would have signed the fuck up for me and my cheating bitch of an ex wife.
6 months of hard labor sounds terrible, but to make her go through it too would put a smile on my face.
And the world is a little bit worse off without him. I'm glad he doesn't have to watch the fresh hell that is going to come of this country, must have been difficult enough to watch Trump's win.
Makes me wonder what kind of utopia we will live in once the last of the lead breathers kicks it
Ahhh I get it. When we would say the right side in pleasant company, we would really say the left side in reality.
"I wasn't involved in the project" is unlikely to have ever been said out loud, but "it's not my fucking problem" is the correct phrase.
"Really?" Has never left my lips. "You've gotta be shitting me" is something I'll say 7-10x per code review.
God truly has abandoned us
I like to imagine there is a special level of karma or hell for cheaters. When my ex cheated I found out on my birthday. Absolutely devastated me. Moved out for 6 months, came back, tried to work it out for a few years. I got intense therapy, we saw marriage counselor, then I discovered her sexting the dude she cheated on me with (by her own admission of all things).
If we didn't have a kid together, I'd have left her to fend for herself. I made all the money in the relationship, I'm the one with an education, and the ability to actually work toward anything. Instead i let her have the house, I'll help her pay for it for a few years so she can have that much time to afford to buy it out.
My son has everything he will ever need covered by me. She can't do school work, she has no benefits, and makes 1/5th of what I do. In a few years when that payment stops, she owes me a chunk of money on top of making up that pay.
So, in the end, while I end up with PISD, she has to live the next few years stressing over how to pay for living while I continue to live better and better, and provide for my son. I even have a fund started to afford him to go to college without loans.
Plus, if she remarries, she owes me that money immediately, and I stop paying that extra cash. I don't see that happening as age is catching up with her, fast. Karma, it turns out, is a bitch.
I hope that OPs Mom was able to turn something around and truly make his dad suffer.
Wait, you mean the epic con man that cons everyone conned racists?
I wonder how that will work out. Surely the militant racists that have been riled up for the past decade will just shrug their shoulders and go "oh well."
I'm in that description and I don't like it
I wouldn't call him desperate, I would call him time constrained with money to enjoy. He probably won't actually use it for that, he'll probably dive into his video game addiction more.
Plus, he says that virtual ladies can't betray him like the dumb fuck of his ex wife that pretty much ruined his self confidence and self esteem to the point where he doesn't actually think he could experience the required vulnerability in other people ever again, and it's been 5 years since the first time she cheated on him.
But he really does appreciate the concern.
I don't think it will stop. It hasn't for me. But it has gotten easier. Reaching the realization that I was infatuated with an idea of her, rather than who she really was, has helped.
Her mom had an affair when she was a kid and her parents divorced. She never forgave her mom, or so I thought. She swore up and down she'd never be like that. She clearly lied about her own principles.
