I seem to remember a poster here writing in that their spouse was cheating on her with his ex and it turned out that the "BS" in question was actually the OW of his first marriage. No, nothing surprises me anymore.
For the most bizarre, a friend of mine from high school grew up in one of these scenarios. Her dad had an affair with OW and left to be with her. Mom and OWH got together. Both "happy" couples married. Eventually, one of the dads had another affair with his original wife and they swapped again. They did a full swap 2 or 3 times (with full divorces and remarriages!) before my friend finished high school. I spoke to her about a year ago and apparently they are still doing it. She's never sure which "dad" she has until she goes home for Christmas. I almost wonder if they bother moving their stuff to different houses or if they just keep extras at each place.

Tell BH no problem just wait till his WW gets a STD, and or the OM gets 'er done and knocks up WW. Or she is knocked up and doesn't know which one is the daddy. Blech.
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. My Story Recovered!

OK so I wasn't the only one that ran out of answers. I was hopeful. However this may also be some misplaced Bravado to make it look like he is macho and nothing bothers him and he can handle anything and make it look like he is in control. I think that's an astute observation. I also think it's a "peeing on perceived territory thing" that primates do. Double blech. This tart has reduced this man to an animal.

I feel bad because I tolerated POSOM all of this time because my kids adore my mom. About a month ago however they started calling him Grandpa POSOM. That was a bad moment for me. Scotty, Its not too late to correct this.....This is a conflicting message to be sending the kids. I suggest telling the kids not to call this man "grandpa". If nothing else it has to be hurtful for your dad........ Not2fun
