Excellent series. You brought it home in the only way possible. No pity at all for Donna. She destroyed her life all by her self.
After reading this, I have to take a good shit. The woman is white trash.
Is there any chance for us........I would of left the restaurant with a hysterical laugh going on. No.... thats a fuck NO. The writer had a good story, complete characters, a good beginning middle and ending.....5
On a personal note I don't think I would have been able to control myself once I found out she was going to night clubs and seeing another man. I'm afraid I would have confronted her right away. Yes, but that would have ruined the story, or made it go in another direction.
Something else has caught my eye. There's a "Hall of Fame". All the very top stories are very recent. I get the impression the older stories like this one faced a much more critical audience.
As I finished I thought: this is a complete Loving Wives story.
In contrast to the many Loving Wives stories that are unfinished, lacking the confrontation, or leaving loose ends.
This is a model Loving Wives story.
Literotica should require anyone aspiring to write a Loving Wives tale, to read this first.

Honestly this chapter wasn't needed. Always the woman coming out of nowhere who's absolutely perfect in every way. Not realistic. The other chapters were ok though.
Even Donna admitted that she was a slut. That must be a first for Literotica. Now there were a couple of IDIOT commenters who said being a slut isn’t a very good reason for Donna doing what she did to her marriage! Of course Donna was a slut. Every women who cheats on her husband IS A SLUT!. They cheat because they think that they can get away with it. What the husband doesn’t know wont hurt him!. As for the idiot DWornock, no one would have discovered what the husband did since this story occurred in the 1970’s. They didn’t have the same electronics back then that they have now. DWornock should just give up making any more DUMB comments on Literotica stories!
I truly enjoy how you describe the early 70s. But I can tell you that there were some good parts that I went through in the fifties and sixties also. There were my hippie dayd where I got to go see Woodstock. And thank you for the good story.
I fail to understand any reason why he needed to talk to her near the end of the story. He didn't learn anything worth knowing. He'd already moved on, already wasn't consumed with what she'd done. He would get nothing but pain from the reliving and Donna's need should have been irrelevant to him.
Well written however the protagonist is a very cruel felon and as bad as she was, the wife did not deserve his punishment. It made me feel sorry for her and not care for him at all. As much as we want to hurt someone in the situation he found himself in he had no right and Sam was more in danger from him than her mother.
Does the punishment fit the crime infidelity. I think not , he destroyed her and could have handled it differently. A confrontation before and see if there was any hope of her getting her head straight before lowering the boom. All because he wanted the kid . She was a good mother until her poising friend turned her and her . There were issue maybe the marriage could not be saved . But a criminal charge and set up way beyond the pail.
The protagonist did the right thing. You can’t have a little girl being raised by a drug and alcohol addicted slut who was only hours from becoming a gangbang queen. She preferred her substances and strange cock to her family. Her choice, but his only choice was to make sure she didn’t get custody.
Can you forgive yourself? Bullshit! Can he forgive her? Probably way later, but not forget
She deliberately made decisions and therefore consequence are hers. Harsh yes but easy to avoid
Don't do the crime and no punish

I think you are a female slut. You blame the husband for all the shit she did and the destruction of her family on him. Just another excuse to be a slut and have it your way. mbgdallas obviously lives the blame everybody else for the sluts actions idea. Typical lib with not one ounce of brains but and can never say Donna did wrong. Lock yourself in the cellar and stop making comments that are not rational. In you eyes when someone shoots a gun and it kills someone. blame the gun not the shooter. Nonsense and stupidity. The writer did a fine job in breaking down how a slut destroys her own life and it is all on her. Period.
Great story...wish you were still writing. Maybe turn off the comments of the stupid and just write.
The story is tragic, it goes to show how if a weak minded person is subjected to drugs, alcohol, and a bad person who was a white trash slut (Connie) constantly and persistently at her to go out and have fun, she can morally corrupted to the point where she becomes self destructive. With that being said, there is no excuse what she did, no husband in his right mind would have excused that kind of behavior and allowed that kind of individual to have custody of a small child. I don't understand how a husband would allow a supposedly faithful wife to go out on a regular basis to "a girls night out" especially with a slut like Connie. The only mistake Ken made was not drawing a line in the sand and say hell no to her outings and stop her hanging out with Connie as he knew what she was.
All in all, Donnas punishment was exactly what she deserved, as the old saying goes we reap what we sow. The author did an excellent job depicting this story and in the end it was great that Ken, Sam and Casey got that happily ever after. Well Done 5 stars.
You could have dropped part 4. I found it sounded self-serving and trite.
Good grief! The guy set his wife up for felony arrest. Being a pot head and slut doesn't rise to that need for revenge.
Yours are some of the harshest BTB stories on Literotica. One could get the impression that some personal catharsis are embodied in them. If so, I hope you didn't treat your ex this viciously.
A great BTB story! Right amount of emotion, pain and recovery.
Shame this writer hasn't continued. I recently discovered him. I'm also aware of some of the places he's mentioned, having grown up in the Lansing area.
Sadly the story went down the usual boring route. The husband finds someone else to love in an incredibly short time which makes you wonder if he loved his ex-wife at all. Once again an author can't explain why a supposedly loving wife suddenly turns to the dark side without using the cliché reasons that most other authors use because they lack the imagination to come up with any realistic set of reasons. I think the story would have been better if it had stopped at chapter 3. This last chapter was pointless
Ahhh. Traverse City, Grand Traverse Bay, Spanish Peninsula, M 22, Leelalau Peninsula, Great Sleeping Bear, picking cherries, kayaking the Platte to Lake Michigan. This Texan completely rethought Michigan after a few weeks there one summer. Don’t know about the winters, but the summers are amazing!
Great place to end up!
Well constructed story. Grew up in a unit that was 59% black soldier. Town I was born in was 47% black. In both cases strong, nice looking black guys bragged about white women the made Connie's description look lie Miss America. Never could figure that out? BTRH...
Yeah Naw, her excuse is lame no one makes you into a slag you were one all along her slut friend just had the key. Most women will never ditch their fundamental morality no matter what.
To reluctantly criticise your time line for his recovery from a major upheaval, makes it look like his rebound is faster than the bullet that ended his marriage.
"After that I was hooked. I was living two lives. My life with you and Sam was nice and safe. You loved me, and made love to me. The other life was wild, crazy, dangerous and oh so hot. Curtis just wanted to fuck me and he did."
"And so I willingly threw away my husband and daughter to get stoned and fucked. Seemed like a good trade at the time."
You'd think that adults would be able to resist peer pressure. Not like they're teenagers, after all.
The circumstances described in this story which resulted in the plot playing out as the author intended are pretty much the same as myriad other "cheating wives" tales and as such are as believable as any--which is to say..."Well, I guess it's possible...." The storyline itself can be accepted, as can the characters involved simply because "similar" adulterous tales pepper the scandal sheets constantly. So, kudos to the author for the quality of the writing, and I look forward to reading more of your work.
It is not meant to be nor is it patently racist to simply state what is a fact of life in relations between black men and white women. My late brother-in-law once told me straightforwardly that it was a goal of "most" black men to nail a blonde--the reasons for that goal being what they are. He was black, my sister-in-law is as blonde as blonde can be.
Whatever might have been the reasons for their initial attraction, they loved each other fiercely until he died of cancer (attributed to exposure to Agent Orange while serving his country in Vietnam). We are left with the memory of that love and the most beautiful niece I'm sure I will ever see.
We cherish both.
MC was too much drama queen as you wrote.
Military background so set your goals and get on with it
Bad decision usually better than no decision.
Can't swing back and forth.
5 stars, very well written, Great Story, Great Writing, Thank You for keeping up later that I should be. LOL I couldn't put this story down. A real page turner! Thank You
A cut above the average story for sure. Thank you for the great read. 5 stars!
thinking about all the crap going on with our energy resources ( or lack there of ),
I wonder how it will be before the territories described in this story ( the 'UP' )
are no longer inhabitable. Its obviously very cold and with the anticipated costs for heating oil skyrocketing, only the wealthiest families will be able to survive. hate to be ploitical but the idiot
dems have made a mess of everything...
It was a genuinely good story having an inbuilt replacement on hand was a bit too obvious I mean the girl next door really? But overall it was pretty well thought out his actual revenge plan was a bit over elaborate and way too costly I mean how much money did this guy have squirrelled away working on an assembly line?
And as much as you just want to beat the ever loving shit out of the slut wife personally forget the police I would if just killed those two Assholes. Plus way cheaper than his elaborate revenge plan and way less people knowing your business.
I enjoyed this story, the emotion in the lead up was really well done. I wish there was a little more around the romance side of things, but I thought it all came together well.
There was a part of me that wanted to see more closure with Donna and some more justice against the so called friend. But all of it was really good!
This story was very much an intensive sad and melancholic, bleak, black study (sorry) on the tired old perennial theme of an old, somewhat slaggish, chum of a hitherto `good-girl' who had been either virginal or at least rather restrained and modest until she got married, but then had begun to become beguiled by her friend's salacious tales of wild, abandoned, adventurous care-free animalistic, monkey-sex, sex for it's own sake, the wilder the better, just like alcohol. tobacco and other hard drugs, the more depraved the sex, the deeper the cravings became! All it takes for a previously repressed and/or restrained woman to snap, is the steady drip feed of relentless pressure from the faux-philosophy of her having "missed-out on what EVERY other woman had, missed out on life, was cheated out of her birth-rite, and that SHE was ENTITLED to "catch-up" on everyone else, and that she had a `Duty to herself' to catch-up NOW, quickly, -before the autumn of her looks ravaged into mid-winter!
The story was quite well told, but lost some of the force behind it, the raw power of it, in trying too hard to be politically correct, fair and analytic, IMHO at any rate! others may disagree, -opinions vary..
R.S.
Second read and the story just got better. Shame in this country that a good husband is secondary to some maternal tradition that is off base way more than anyone can imagine. Look at the stats on cheating..... No ta male thing as much as it was in the 50,60 and 1970ies. The writer has done a very good job of describing the scenario. Too bad he didn't give an accounting of Connie and the two guys, Finally it's a shame that a couple doesn't look past the euphoria of dating to uncover their inner self.
Great story. I was stationed in Baumholder, FRG 4 years and again at Ferris Barracks(Near Nurnenburg) another 3 years. Grafenwoer, Hohenfels, brought back memories of freezing cold tank gunnery exercises for 30 days every visit, but you forgot Wildflicken. Grafenwoer/Hohenfels/Wildflicken all a soldiers nightmare,hahahaha. Good story
Sad and gritty but realistic. The depredations of substance abuse and alcohol are terrible to behold. It was pretty clear that in Donna's case the marijuana blunted (pun intended) her capacity for rational decisions and along with the alcohol lowered her inhibitions greatly. Worse the marijuana high made the sexual experience very strong for her and she was hooked. Sounds like she had been cheating for months before she was caught in the hotel. And well before the MC saw her in the club and outside in the car. The lack of dope made her skittish and miserable to be around with her husband and daughter. And Connie kept feeding it to her a couple a times a week even separate from her weekly fuckfest. Sad to the erosion of nit just a marriage but a person. Donna was a good person at one point. And would not have done what she did without Connie (and later Curtis) getting her hooked on dope. She had reservations after a several times out but the call of the high was too much to turn down. Her "one more week" mantra is a classic sign of out of control substance addiction. Very sad. Happily the MC remarried and had twins with Casey and Donna rebuilt a relationship with her daughter. Well written and realistic, though gritty.
This story was all too real and I gave it a 5.
I grew up in suburban Detroit and most people I knew either worked for the big three or suppliers.
I lived in Kokomo Indiana in the 70's. Home office of GM Delo Electronics with over 10,000 w0orkers, Chrysler transmission plant I think had over 7,000, there was a steel mill and a lot of support industries.
There were women with money and there was a large adultery problem. There was a significant drug problem and way too many alcoholics. Surprisingly there were also addicted gamblers, despite Indiana not being gambling state. As a counselor (a lot of it marital) it was often heartbreaking. I am just thankful my wife and I had 53 good years before Cancer took her in her 71st year.
itmgr2010 - I still maintain you're a very good writer and I gave you 5-stars. But ... now that I've read many more BTB stories I realise that BTB is about the cheating, the discovery, the confrontation and the aftermath. I so much would have loved to see that in this story instead of him Blackmailing and setting her up!
Well. When is the cuckold going to tell his new wife that he FRAMED his old one for Femdom agitprop ?
Longer that I generally like, but a good, moving yet sad story. Too bad the wife couldn't wait a bit longer for her husband to finish his schooling instead of slutting around. She agreed to stay away from Connie, but allowed herself to get back in her sphere of influence, family be damned.
Got to answer HighBrow; not sure if "cuckold" applies as he didn't know about his wife's sexual infidelities. I like to believe that term will go to those men who're aware of the circumstances. That being said, yes, he initially framed everyone, but later found out that there's going to be a major drug buy anyway. As she was already using drugs- smelled in the condo & seen at the club, & especially with how she treated her husband for months, this probably was the needed step. For safety, he couldn't do anything in the club or he may've been severely hurt or worse. What would HighBrow suggest? Telling those guys to leave off his wife? THAT wouldn't end well.
5 stars for this surprisingly good story. Bob
Curious how he long he continues to lie and hide the truth from his entire family and his new wife, regarding how he illegally set up his ex with the drugs just so he could gain custody.
I just loved the way our mc leveled the playing field with his tactics. He completely delivered retribution to all concerned. Highbrow calls him a cuckold, he was but an unknowing one. Once he became aware the asskicking started. And I for one appreciate the fact he kept his machinations to himself.
Suspecting that your wife is screwing around and actually seeing your Treasured Wife in the back seat of a big car getting some big black cock is two different things. When You see the blinding truth so drastically, the wanton sexuality of your one and only wife sharing her body with another man in a dark parking lot, the hurt and pain couldn't be much more intense and painful. Heartbreaking reality, unmistakable pain, and disregard for her husband. How hubby could see that and remain calm is beyond me. I would have gone berserk and done them both in, probably.
The disrespect is something most men would NOT ever be able to get over. 10 stars to the writer for great writing, great story, and great effort. Thanks, for the good job. Buster2U very realistic.
An absolute crock from start to finish. The protagonist was a bigger homewrecker than the slut he married. The explanation for her behaviour was pathetic and his "retribution" was literally unbelievable.
When are all these writers ever going to learn that getting married right after a divorce will most likely never work out?... if it does it would be an absolute miracle... just some adolescent dream of a romantic happy life everlasting ending.
Well written, good story, but it was pretty low specifically planting the drugs in Donna’s purse.
