A larger competitor is sniffing around, wondering if I'd be interested in selling. I'm torn from walking away from the past completely and staying in the business I had started and in the past, loved. I suspected the acquisition would likely result in the closure and consolidation of the business into one of their larger operations. The over one hundred and fifty employees would be abandoned and I wouldn't be able to live with that. I have contemplated putting a 'No Closure' clause in any sale agreement, but even if the buyer agreed, they would immediately look for ways to circumvent it.

I haven't decided what my life will look like tomorrow. I know that as a responsible adult, I am the author of my own misfortune. I alone assembled the bomb from the simple components; the report, the photographs and the audio tapes. I alone detonated the bomb when I chose to enter my home and confront the scene. I alone rode the shock wave as I sat at my kitchen table and cast the die of our inevitable future. And now I stand alone in this wasteland and look about me at the devastation. In the end, we have all become victims of collateral damage.

What bomb? He was a simple cuck that let his slut fuck him over and over. The only "bomb" was the fart he passed through his enlarged asshole.

I liked it, as it was different. I too agree that a view from the ex-wife might an interesting take.

It would be interesting to hear what she thinks. The woman’s perspective

A very clever twist on the LW genre. And a very sad tale. Well written and paced. 5 stars. DMW aka Sumnut96

“ He knew she was the victim as much as she was the participant”

Bullshit! Just another author making excuses for women, and denying their agency, and accountability. It’s still adultery even if the affair partner is the same sex.

Also, a married woman isn’t supposed to be submissive to anyone but her husband. A true submissive is loyal to her chosen Master. Submission doesn’t mean obedience to everyone. Trying to excuse her choices because she was submissive to her sister in law was ridiculous!

"Hey wifey, let's do the same goddamn thing for the 50,000 time and call it fun!"

If the guy is that clueless about role-playing, no wonder the women had to find some release!

Also, those two doofuses could've got in on something good; it was set up for them.

This is a good lesson about believing the bullshit that people are coerced into expecting out of life. None of this would have come to pass if the MC hadn't been taught to expect monogamy. Monogamy is an unnatural state for humans and to expect it is to set yourself up for disasters such as this. This is simply born out in the divorce statistics.

We need to teach our children not to expect or accept it if they are to avoid heartbreak.
