OK, I am a suspicious sort. I admit it.

I have relatively new neighbors. They bought a foreclosure three houses up a year ago. I thought when I first met them there was something maritally unsavory about them. He is mid to late 30’s. She is very early 20’s. They acted constrained around each other. He seemed suspicious of me and other neighbors when we talked to his wife. She seemed selfish and self absorbed. More so than a typical 20 something woman.

They looked like an affair marriage to me from the moment I first met them. They did.

I now and will for the rest of my life immediately size up everyone I meet for their adulterous potential. Are they? Have they? Will they? No matter. This couple definitely smelled adulterous to me.

They married two months after moving in.

They started fighting, loudly, six months after that.

She moved out, somewhere far away, two weeks ago.


OK, I am heartless [censored]. I can live with it.

He came over to cry on my shoulder last weekend. Drinking too much. Admitted he left his first wife and children for her after a year-long adultery. His first wife no longer wants him back.

I told him I could not help him. I told him I did not want to hear it. I will not send him here either. I sent him home, politely. Gritting my teeth.


OK, I am mean, biased and prejudiced. Deal with it.

I thoroughly despise affair marriages. I do not care what MB or Dr H or anyone on this site thinks about them or if they feel compassion for those involved in them; nor do I care whether anyone here tries to help them. But I totally and unwaveringly believe affair marriages are an affront to the sacrament and the institution of marriage. Their existence is a trigger to me. I will never help one no how, no way.

I don’t care what anyone else thinks about my opinion in this matter.

Adulterous marriages can all go south. The sooner the better. As almost all do.

I do not want one anywhere near me.


Ah, that helped…

My cousin and I were taking bets tonight on how long her ex H's affair relationship will last. They're not married yet but they're talking about it. I predict they don't ever get as far as a wedding before they break up.

There's another one that fits the stats....


BS - me 56

WH wants nothing to do with me

My FWH's OW is in an affairage with her H. She broke up his first M, then had an A with his best friend weeks before the wedding. He still married her, but began his ONS's soon after the M as revenge.

When she finds out about his ONS's she has A's (many). They are violent with each other, both drink way too much and live the most destructive life I have ever witnessed.

The devastation they cause has to be seen to be believed, and all this has come from their initial decision to begin their A with each other.

Nothing good can ever come from an A.

I also found out that his first wife is the loveliest person you could want to meet, and went on to remarry a really nice man and have 2 children and is now very happy. Her revenge is living a good life while the 2 people who at one time ruined her life live in a hell of their own making.

So yesterday, now she is out of the house, he took the puppy she just had to have to the pound.

They have run out of human children to harm. They are moving to pets.

‘course, they don’t believe they harm anyone or any thing. It is love. Was. Once.

Stupids.

All adulterers are incurable stupids.

If you believe this, why do you continue to come to a MARRIAGE BUILDING site dedicated to rebuilding marriages after infidelity.

I realize YOUR WS may be an incurable stupid, but mine is not. And it appears from this site that there are several others who are not as well....Mrs. W, Lala, Pep's H, Mel's H, and on and on.

I realize you are hurting, but please quit insulting our FW board members.

Hmm, telling me what I can think, huh? Ordering what I can and cannot post are you?

They are all incurably stupid. My opine.

So report me to the mods. Get me banned.

Put me on ignore.

Or go away.

Oh Appy.

I'm sorry those heartless twits offended you and triggered you.



I never had to take the Kobayashi Maru test until now. What do you think of my solution?

O'hana means family, and family means nobody gets left behind or forgotten.

Aph, you need to get out of that marriage, away from the monster you married before this crap destroys you.
Yes, the remorseless, disordered , power droids like your wife may be stupid, although evil is probably a better way to look at it. I really think there is something fundamentally different about the remorselss a-hole tyopes and some of the other cheaters. They are all messed up, but some can get better.
