All Comments on 'Keeping the Trophy'

Not bad at all. Nicely told and a very good story. As usual the woman has the dumb look and excuse that she didn't see the big deal because they didn't have penetration. O will never believe that most spouses believe this and Jim didn't want to divorce her or he would have let the evening play out. His actions were defensive of the marriage but I suspect, with her attitude they will have trouble in the future. Thanks for writing a very good and well told story

Nicely done. She surely cheated. But while inexcusable, not unforgivable. And by taking action and intercepting, he maintained agency. He acted appropriately towards Will the asshole, and his wife. I personally woukd have been upset for a longer time and demanded some counseling as part of the second option, but it was not worth destroying a marriage over on its own. Her story about the phone calls seemed to make sense given thr hayride incident. Was it cook? Hell no. But it wasn't an emotional affair. He could also double check with his "source". That being said, if he had not intervened, Will would have probably tricked her and f$cked her that night. Why? I believe that got her the panty removal was the end. But Will would not stop. Look at what he did on the hayride that was borderline date rape. 5 stars.

I don't think she planned to cheat per se, but she did get very caught up in everything as a result of various factors (feeling old, Jim being too overworked to notice, previous history with Will, etc). That being said, while there wasn't direct intent, there is sufficient evidence to conclude that in all likelihood she would have ended up fucking Will had Jim not been there.

1) Will kept making advances and while she rebuffed them initially, she kept relenting. Multiple French kisses, then full-on tit groping, then seeing her bare pussy and giving her his pants;

2) Will admitted he wanted sex from her to Jim and Linda knew he wanted sex as he kept "hinting" at it, as she put it;

3) Linda admitted she was in a frame of mind that allowed her to sort of regress to where she was in highschool and she had a bit much to drink. If she kept going, all her inhibitions would have been lowered to the point where she wouldn't put up much of a fight, if any;

4) Linda was annoyed that Jim was there initially, was overly defensive and apprehensive, and was basically behaving very guilty. If it was no big deal there would be no reason to act that way. Clearly at least part of her was entertaining the idea of sex even if she didn't intent to actually do it at the time;

5) She never spoke to her husband about the various calls with Will and was very secretive and evasive when they came through. In my mind she knew this was wrong but wanted to keep her options open because she was pissed at Jim's lack of attention and the way she was feeling about getting older.

All-in-all, we have a housewife and mother that feels past it and neglected, who is getting a chance to live a bit and recapture her youth with the old "highschool dreamboat" that she feels she owes because she promised him her panties. This guy obviously wants to finish what he started 20 years ago and works her over, playing on her emotions and insecurities, and I believe would have succeeded that night in fucking her if Jim had not been there. I mean look how far he got and the way she was acting. I think almost everyone would conclude that it was a sure thing with a bit more time, flattery and alcohol.

Verdict: not a cheater, but not completely innocent; she failed the husband test on many occasions. She requires observation to rebuilt trust that was damaged as a result of her foolish actions. Maybe some counseling so she doesn't repeat the bullshit with the next Will that comes along. The husband will also have to be more attentive to her but she has to understand that he is very busy to provide for the lifestyle she enjoys so compromise and clear communication is required.

PREMEDITATED ADULTERY...

Barely ⭐⭐⭐

Meh. The guy is a fool. Thanks.

MC got himself cucked and just caved in. 1 star.

He let her off the hook way too easily and she did everything but guide him into her right there is the bar, I woulda also told her that she was so "innocent" that Bob whom I hardly know had to call me up with a warning.

His apology to her was kind of unwarranted, and other than him commenting about her not doing anything to stay attractive NO attention was called to the fact that she worked to get in shape not for her husband but to see Will. BIG show of premeditation there.

A good "head them off at the pass" story.

Reading this story is eating a rice cake.

Plenty of comments on the story. My only note is to suggest breaking up those very long paragraphs. Most could be written as two or three.

Totally enjoyed the story until.... Jim apologized to Linda. Really? He's working hard for them & to give her what she wants, which he stated. I also don't see the bartender, unless he knows the customers very well (not told, so I suppose he didn't), allowing them to stay after closing. As a song goes: "You don't have to go home, but you can't stay here.

Linda planned her rendezvous with Will through calls & texts. Which brings me to a commenter below me that wrote (s)he didn't think she intended what happened. I totally disagree: she'd texts/ phone calls setting everything up. Even told Jim that she gave Will her panties & let him look at her pussy because she owed him from before they're married! That's pure shit!! That the husband apologized for what he was doing is a crock. I do agree with that commenter that I'd like Will to be pummeled a bit more before taking away her panties- just to reconfirm that his wife's not available.

And although she denies it, if he wasn't there, she probably would've had sex with Will. He hidden texts & mostly, when Jim answered the phone & she walked to the other room away from his earshot, more or less confirms it. Unfortunately, in the talk at the bar between Jim & Linda, he never called her on it. Anyway, 4 stars as I liked the story.

Excellent story. Very well written. The author actually made me as a reader believe the wife, though she may have indeed caved if drunk enough. But I believe she had zero intention. The dialog was well written and seemed realistic. Husband covered all the bases and showed restraint. Her reasoning for being out at the reunion did not seem to be conspiratorial. Their marriage also has some issues that need mending. Counseling should help them. She went too far of course and got caught up in thr experience. But she did not seek out extramarital sex, she did not plan for it, and she would have resisted. Of course she made a bad mistake with the panties. Her promise from high school should have been null and void by her marriage vows. But while she may have been more vulnerable than she realized (hence Bob's call to the MC), she did not have ill intent. However her naivete and poor judgment was quite reckless and could have marriage easily, seeing as Will is a pussy hound. Fortunately thr MC did arrive, played things cool, got Will away from her for good, and listened to her story. The context prior to the night at the bar (ignoring the hay ride promise) seemed realistic. The husband flipping the argiment using his ex girlfriend, really hit home. The second option was the right choice for both. I thought this a very realistic and well put together account of a couple at the edge of infidelity but stepping back into reconciliation. It will take him a while to trust again though.

Ever Notice

That the most intelligent comments are written by people who have worked hard at writing and posting stories. The worst are always by the same stupid people who must never have had a real relationship and still live in their mother's basement.

For what it's worth, most people will give up when their nose gets broken, the blood is everywhere and the pain is so great they can't even see. But, if you really want them to go down with one punch and stay down, don't go for the stomach, drive one right through the solar plexus. The way I read it though, I don't think Jim wanted Will to stay down. Being a fair minded person he would have wanted Will more or less upright when he popped him again. Besides it would make it easier to retrieve the "Trophy".

I don't think I've seen a character more naive since Linda Evans played Audra on 'The Big Valley'. Of course Susan in the Troubador's original 'How High A Price' is right up there too. Regardless I'm with LTW on this one, but I do acknowledge Sbrooks thoughts too. *****'s for the well thought out writing. Signed: BTW

Was very good until the husband started apologizing. What he did - or didn't do - really didn't mean too much in the scheme of things. Her classmate wanted to fuck her, & in spite of her words, she most likely would've gone with him. That's evident that she made him feel that he wasn't wanted at the bar at all. I also don't think some of the things described on the dance floor or the booth would've been done in actuality.

-- Well written story & I look forward to more. 4 stars Bob

Uggh. Author pushed limits on this one to the unbelievable. Ok maybe the close dancing and kissing (both bad) could still warrant reconciliation with counseling and time. Even the stupid trophy thing with the panties (sans the pussy viewing) could be rationalized away as some stupid promise from high school. Even ignoring her deceit and interactions prior to the reunion. Ok maybe. But playing with and sucking her tits? That is clear second base. What is next digital penetration? Bullshit. The MC should have come down a lot harder. Told her he wanted a trial separation and counseling and that if not he would get divorce papers ready. This was an emotional / partial physical affair. It would not be resolved in one night of talking. BS.

very good until the last 2 lines. think I would have enforced my view that she would have ended up in Will's bed if I hadn't stopped it in time. Told her that if that had happened, she would be divorced asap.

Two questions.

1. Why did she ignore the calls from Jim?

2. Why did Bob call Jim and ask him to come down ASAP?

Conscience is the personal understanding of right and wrong. Conscious, among other things, is awareness. One is self conscious, not self conscience. I thought your first misuse was a typo. On the next I thought you should be made aware of the error.

The fact she let him lick her nipples in a public bar puts the lie to everything she said, as did the kissing and the pussy spread. I had difficulty seeing hubby’s sense there was a relationship to be saved. Others have mentioned the panty and bra set were purchased by hubby, and the symbolism of removing hubby’s purchase for the snake. I thought the ending blew by all of these issues to arrive too easily at champagne and a reclamation of the trophy fuck, which was a poor end to a tale well told to that point. I was between 3 and 4 stars, but bumped it to 4 because it kept my interest to the end. Also, what was with the bold and not bold type? It detracted from the reading of the story.

Enjoyed it

Anyone is going to tell you what you want to hear when they are caught red-handed and have no excuse... they just lie down and a take what you dish out, apologize profusely and perpetually, and tell you what they think you want to hear for the moment in order to assuage your anger and placate you... only time and life can tell the real tale... and what will that be when someone has already shown how easily bored and frustrated they can get and how vulnerable they are to a master manipulator?

Weak ending. Very very weak ending. He left her off the hook way too easily. She cheated on him. No doubt about that. And he acts like a JPB character who looks as a real man but lose his balls in the process.

"Partially my fault" statements like this make him even more of a cuck than he already is... "How exactly any of what happened is HIS fault?"

"If we need to we can go to counseling" Is there any doubt that they desperately need counseling?

"where is the nearest Motel with king-sized bed..." So he is going to reward the slut with sex and get sloppy mind seconds. Good ol' Jim already got her ready for him...

As I said, as a reconciliation tale makes no sense at all.

The only real issue I have is the husband discussed everything he saw occur in the bar but, not the fact that her behavior had started even before he had to tell her he couldn't go with her to the reunion. She started talking softly and leaving the room every time Will's name was mentioned or when he called. This wasn't quite the momentary lapse in judgement she tried to play it off as. She was already fantasizing about and making plans to see Will at least 6 weeks prior to actually leaving for the reunion.

After the way he laid down the law about her behavior in the bar it feels like he should have addressed her behavior in the preceding weeks before he gave her the two choices.

I enjoyed this. 5 stars.

A good story till the last three paragraphs…that was a wimpy ending…a fuck makes all things good…is that ur take me writer?

The wife proved that she's no trophy worth keeping let alone worth fighting for since she she's so insecure, selfish and entitled that she'd fucked the old high school boyfriend if her husband had broken up. She thinks the old "fuck him till he forgets" scheme will make her attempt to cheat just blow over and the husband's dumb enough to fall for it. Good story to begin with but just whimps out at the end where the story jumps from a pissed off husband to a sudden reconciliation in a few sentences. The only lesson the wife learned is that her husband is a chump. Next time she plans to cheat she'll be more careful.

I find it interesting to see the change in reader attitudes toward the husband over time. It would seem Jim's macho solution to his wife misbehavior is no longer the prime take away from the story.

I contend that he played it masterfully and will get a "renewed" wife in Lyn for many years to come.

Looking forward to continual uncertainty over an untrustworthy wife and memories of her throwing away her marriage, why on earth would he want to "keep the trophy"?

No bueno.

What a laugh.

His wife did all the wrong, but husband will always be part of the blame. And worse, he blames himself.

Love the writing style; Hate the RAAC/CUCK aspect again!!!

He is WAY too forgiving!!!!

not a perfect finish I will say some of us NEVER find out about our wife's action as was the case with LYN.. This story is a great example how good can turn to shit when the offended spouse finds the truth to the story a solid 5 for me

Disappointing.

She cheated, and his solution is I need to get some counselling, because it was my fault, and if it ever happens again I’ll be really really really annoyed ......

Getting back to that immature theme, this speaks volumes:

"Yes, I didn't want to hurt his feelings and after all..." Seriously? She is a wife. His feelings are not #1, or #2 or anywhere above #10. I don't have much hope for that marriage.

So what would be the best present for her to unwrap on her next birthday?

However, she may yet become a good enough wife. Let's face it, she is horribly immature and has a lot of growing up to do. Will got off easy.

While reading this I was struck by the same thing that troubled capecodmercury at the time this story was posted: The trophy she chose to give Will was not just any of her panties. No, she chose part of an expensive lingerie set given to her by her husband of 15 years. There is so much powerful symbolism contained in that choice of a trophy to award (or surrender perhaps) to a man who is so deserving simply because he was denied the chance to take her vitginity in a hay wagon, after getting her drunk for the for the first time, while in view of their classmates. I find it hard to imagine her making a selection that would have done more to make clear her disrespect for Jim, her regret about forming her current family and her lack of guilt or remorse over her betrayal of her spouse and children.

In some ways it is easier for Jim to accept her crocodile tears and whining professions of love than it would be to divorce her. Also it may be easier on their children, especially while they are young, for their parents to remain together. Those considerations, however, do not change the fact Jim has decided to remain married to a woman who does not love or respect him. He has chosen to settle for something he can rationalize as good enough.

He went on and on and on condoning her actions, only to forgive her straight away. Dude carried on like some macho guy only to wimp out in the end. Also hate it when husbands choose to watch for a bit before doing anything. If you do watch and the wife is unfaithful, which I believe she was here, dump the slut and move on. Do not do what this story did, as the wife pretty much got away with it and will think its ok to do it again in the future.

He still let her off lightly. She should’ve gotten ten licks from his belt across her ass two nights a week for a month to teach her a lesson in fidelity. She would never forget that.

Im sorry but this was hard to read. He just watches them calmly at the beginning and then finally confronts them but the way he did was annoying as hell. He calmly talks to her and then when you expect him to drop the hammer he wimps out by giving her the choice to choose.

This was a tedious storyline that dragged on for entirely too long. I understand the need to build towards dramatic, but this was almost painful in it's desire to do that.

You could have shortened this by 2 pages and published a much better, more concise and palatable story.

Why couldn't she remove her panties in the ladies room, or at least reach up under her dress, instead of giving him a pussy shot?

"What you saw here tonight between Will and myself was just a spur of the moment thing, something that grew out of a bunch of little things coming together at the same time." -What about the secretive phone calls?

"it gave my ego a real blow." - Gee, and here I thought all problems were because of those darn fragile male egos!

"the quarterback of the football team" - Earlier, he was the running back.

If that night was just an "accident," then why was Bob so concerned that he called Jim?

Earlier she said that being with Will was a "spur of the moment" thing, now she's admitting planning to "see" him.

"Not much so far but I have a feeling that's about to change" - It seems like WILL was certainly expecting something to happen!

"Yes, I didn't want to hurt his feelings" - She didn't want to hurt WILL'S feelings? How about her husband's feelings? Granted, she didn't know he was there, but you shouldn't be doing something you wouldn't do in front of your husband.

Frankly the only thing keeping me from telling him to dump her ass is the kids.

I didnt enjoy it and I hate it when the husbands just watch their wives be whores, instead of confronting the dumb slut. The fact that he did and calmly spoke to her was just stupid.

Wife cheated. Jim is a Cuckold. End of story.

The way this story was written If Jim wanted to have a chance of saving his marriage his only choice was to invervene before they left the dance hall. If they got into the car and locked the doors he could only get to them by smashing his way in resulting a criminal damage charge. If they had driven off Will being familiar with the back roads and his car's handling could have easily lost Jim.'-

So yes, Jim made the right call. What he did miss before considering reconcilliation was insisting on seeing all the messages/call logs on her phone to verify her story. about the her activities, in particulay Will's claimed accidental meeting with her the previous day. Also to confirm his messages had been received and her using her phone after their datestamp confirms she deliberately ignored them. If Jims messages were missing the retain her phone and get an expert to recover her deleted messages. Probably the threat of this would be enough for her to confess the truth. I am making assumptions here as this story was published and set in 2005 by which time messaging was mainstream and taken up by the MC's age group. Granted that this story appears to suggest they are still using land lines. Jim did place a call to Bob who said they were all together at "Clancys"

Looking at the situation from Will the experienced seducers's pov.

What messages is he getting? Lyn has allowed heavy making out including grinding genitals. She allowed him to expose her her tits and suck her nipples in public. She removed and presented her knickers to him exposing her pussy for his inspection, again in public. She is three sheets to the wind.

Without Jim's intervention, regardless of her intentions she would get into his car without knickers, leavin Will one remaining obstical of getting her from the car to his Motel room. The trick here as with closing any sale is to make haste slowly by taking small steps and letting your target to become used to to the escalated condition before moving on. My guess is that he would start making out in the car park before moving of and alarmiming her by arriving at his motel.

Having seen a pattern of him doing things to her and her being slow to realise what is happening before calling a halt. He has only to gain entry, bearing in mind she is now used to feeling a cock enter, unlike the time of the hay ride when it would be alien and immediately noticed. If he then makes a quick push as she reacts, he has scored. by quickly pulling out without argument he's in a position to persuade her that as its now a faits accompli they may as well enjoy it in comfort.

Thank goodness for Jim's intervention.

5*

Ven

Show her the video tapes in total after stopping by Will's motel room, you know, just to make sure he was ok. Knock, Knock, Ya, Sure, Ya Betcha. One last question, where did you go?

At Last a Man instead of a coward .. I would have still given her a ride to her friends house .. Then I would have left Her there . Like I have always Said I take My wedding Vows really Seriously . And to Me She Cheated on Him .. I did like Bob He did the right thing ..

A story where the guy man's up and steps up BEFORE it goes way to far.

Case over. Btb

Who would have thought at the start that it would reach a reasonable resolution that night and in that bar? The most pleasing aspect was a husband who stepped in pretty quickly instead of letting a potential affair play out. Maybe he let her off the hook too soon, but the only available information left unexplored was what her friends would say she had done in earlier days. There was still time to check that out, and every reason to dump her immediately if it turned out that she had lied. By the way, I think the exchange of panties is a sign she was telling the truth about no planned sex. Otherwise, it would only be logical to award the trophy after the game. Finally, I tried to vote it a 5 but it registered as only a 4 and Would not let me change it.

This needs a part 2 as the guy as written can't go from the scorned husband talking divorce to just accepting her word and getting laid that night. She was so easy to give in to temptation and he knew she would be in Will's bed had he not stopped her. Maybe divorce day one is not the right answer but he has to keep her at arms length and then as others said find out more about went went on for him to get the hurry up and get down here call. He should also ask her to explain all the phone calls and texts. Share then if not deleted.

But she got off way too easily, especially since he saw the entire thing. Will was able to walk and drive home and that also shouldn't have been the.case. Just too little retribution for as angry as he appeared to be.

Why O why would anyone stay married to her? NOT ME

As a few folks have noted he was doing great, but jumping right into bed with her doesn't seem to fit with his mindset as just portrayed by the author. I agree with another comment about throwing the panties in her face and hitting the road to the airport. Also agree with another, what caused the other husband to call him. There must have been some very blatant activity to get his attention and concern. And what did she think that her "classmates" were thinking about this "slutty" behavior by a married friend. At the end.....making up that quickly doesn't make sense.

After he threw her panties in her face and explained to her that he watched her take them off and give them away, he should have immediately headed back to the airport and flown home. And left her twisting in the wind. Not knowing what’s coming is usually much worse than seeing it coming. Let her sweat. And if she waffles, cut your losses and move forward.

BetrayerWife kept trying to manipulate him with this minimizing act, and in the end she did it. A little grin and poof, he was asking for champagne and ready to hit it with her. No wonder for all of those six weeks she wasn't bothered when she put husband and children out of her mind every time she took a call about or from Will and the reunion. She was going for everything, kept her promise to Will, broke her "forsake all others" word to her husband.

Maybe Hubs will throw down with sex tonight and will keep her and Will in check all through the reunion. Meanwhile he accumulates more information and evidence for his divorce action, even finds the man who did him that "husband to husband" solid and adds those recordings to the surveillance tapes. When they get home, he can put her ass out since she remembered the “stuff” and benefits she would lose when he said he'd quit his job but didn't remember him or her children when she was planning all the dirt she was going to do and “keeping her promise” to Will. Let's see her try to minimize the effect of her decisions (she calls them “little mistakes”) when the marriage counselor sees the video footage, and, if she continues to try to manipulate by playing delusional, when his attorney shows it to the judge.

.... I sure don’t mind them getting back together, but he seemed to let her “back in” a little too easy. He was pretty pissed off. She had been planning this for some time and had taken it very very... very far. He gives her an ulitimatum. She says, “I want back.” And he says, “O’kay. Let’s go fuck.” The end.

His anger just went ‘poof’. Too simple and easy an end to what he’d realized was a big work up by her, irregardless the story she told.

Also, no mention of the kids to her? By her? During the whole argument by eiher of them. As if they didn’t exist within the equation of the marriage.

Holes, holes, holes. Ended up insatisfied by the story.

I like the story. He was my kind of guy and I'm so glad the author didn't let the wife get off with all the usual bs. He sat and let her talk then told her bullshit. Like I said, my kind of guy.

I still hold with previous comments on this. Her question about how much does it matter in the scheme of things would have tripped all of my fuses. She gave him a trophy of her panties that were part of the set her husband gave her as a gift and she doesn’t see the problem with it? That she kept saying that nothing would have happened, I think that milady doth protests too much. Personally I feel that she was trying to convince herself more than her husband.

I get that she was pissed off at her husbands bailing out on her at the last minute, however that doesn’t give her the right to play around with an ex. I wonder just how she would tell her kids why they were getting divorced? Um kids mommy made a small mistake and daddy is blowing it all out of proportion. And like he asked her, had the shoe been on the other foot, she would have blown up kicking him out of the house and been right to do so.

The worst part is that another guy had to give him the heads up. To me that yells that she had already planned to try out Will the Thriller. If the other husband saw it then there was something bad going on there. Since this is fictional we have to go by what was written as this is the writers story. That being said, he chose to reconcile, and that is his choice no matter how we may see it. Plenty of couples have survived worse and that is their choice. Personally I doubt he will ever let her go off to another reunion alone ever again. Hopefully this has knocked some sense into her, but, I would also have a postnuptial written and notarized just to slam the point home. If she is true to her word then there should be no problem. If she is lying, well then it will hang over her head like the sword of Damocles!

I was interested in how you developed Lyn's character, particularly as it unfolded in her "confession" about her long-standing and persistent 'fatal attraction' to the stereotyped character of Will. Good fiction can surround some kind of reality; that's part of what draws in a reader. The one you outline is also a stereotype: the shy, parentally-controlled, late blooming, freckles and braces who nevertheless meets and marries, apparently successfully, but who, alas, remains emotionally locked in a synchronous orbit around the approval of The High School School Jock/Heartbeat. You wound a compelling confession from her whose illogic and self-centeredness nicely illustrated the potential craziness of how a person's basic need for approval remains so deeply imbedbed, despite all evidence to the contrary . . . Oh, those early--in--life survival convictions we harbor!

Thanks for stimulating thought.

But the ending fell flat. Jim better start hiding his breakaway money. He's certainly heading for a traincrash of a marriage and a lot of future pain when he realises he was right the first time. First impressions are usually the right ones.

Thanks for the effort.

if Jim allows the seduction to continue in the bar it will inevitably end up in Will’s motel room. As soon as Jim interrupted, it was obvious the author intended this to be a RAAC by providing Lyn an opportunity to BS her way out of the predicament.

What I would have liked to see is Lyn eventually slap Will, yell out loud to leave her alone, and ask the bar tender to call a cab for her. No BTB or RAAC but an honorable woman true to her vows and a humilated scumbag slink out the door.

This guy had her dead to rights and, as smart as he was, he didn't follow her to their fuck nest to be able to have proof positive that he could never trust her. Whatever b.s. story she had after that would be meaningless. Of course, he'd have creamed Wild Will, ended up with a felony record after his stretch in prison and she'd have had his house, furniture, cars, bank accts. and a permanent order of protection.

has a lose plot. He knew that his wife was eager to meet Will. He had seen her taking Will's calls alone, without him knowing what was being said. He had seen what was going on in bar and in the booth. He saw his wife giving her panties to her old lover and showing her pussy to him. He should have waited and followed them after they left the bar. If they went to Will's motel , it was clear enough what they were up to. But if she went to her friend's, only then there was a chance to eat up her bull shit story and try to save the marriage for the sake of kids.

But the dumb ass interrupted the lovers in the middle of their mating ritual and started wondering 'had they fucked already?' What a bull shit way to write.

He shouldn't give her a choice at all, other then a DIVORCE.

I take it you do not like trump. Fascist dictator is hyperventilating hyperbole on your part though! As the non-citizen of the USA that you are I am certain the citizens of that nation cannot wait for more of your unenlightened commentary. That nation has survived FDR, the Kennedys, Carter, Clinton, and Obama. While I doubt the Donald can fix their mess in four years, he is certainly a much better choice than Silly Hilly who has repeatedly claimed her husband, to her knowledge, has always been faithful to their marital vows.

TALK ABOUT A LOW IQ. I mean she actually thought the citizens of that nation believed her lies...sort of like you

at the end. She went too far off the reservation for him to take her to a motel that night. He should have taken her to the friends she had been staying with and later made her sit and watch the surveillance tapes.

The story was great till you pull this RAAC ending. No real man would have forgiven her so quickly and so willingly. I'm not against reconciliation, but I can't get past RAAC.

Excellent, however the ending was not so hot. To much forgiveness to soon.

Jim stated everything that I was thinking as the story progressed. I would have made the same arguments to her actions. As the title says, Keeping the Trophy! He could have easily divorced her as the air head commenters here have stated but Jim knows that he couldn't replace a trophy wife very easily. He caught her before she did too much damage to their marriage. The low IQ (less than 100) commenters want him to kick out her to the curb! I agree with the author's decision to verbally abuse her to smarten her up. These low IQ commenters are the same bunch of rednecks that voted in the fascist dictator Donald Trump! Look at how Donald supported the Charlottesville fascists demonstration.

PS, I am not a US citizen. We in the rest of the world can't understand how someone like him is ruling the most powerful country in this world. I can only assume that his voters are just as dumb as he is. And don't try to tell us that he has an IQ of 156. Donald is lucky if his IQ is just over 100. Both Bush presidents have stated in the press that Donald is an idiot!

If I may be so bold as to offer some advice, your writing would be more "friendly" for the reader if you would split your story into smaller "chunks". It's easier to read, easier on the eyes, if you avoid those long paragraphs - even if it's all one character's thoughts or dialogue. Three or four lines on the page is about all I'd recommend before a break, then a double-space, then continuing for a few more lines. Seems clunky when typing it out that way, but the end result is much easier to read. For example, when Lyn is offering her "explanation" about who Will was in high school and what happened on the hay ride and what she promised him and why she behaved as she did and so on and so forth: you wrote up her and Jim's dialogue in extremely large paragraphs. Even though they were complete thoughts and verbiage by one character, it would have been easier to read if you had broken it into many smaller bites. Just a thought, no offense intended.

Also, Jim obviously loves his wife and is not willing to lose her. After all, he flew all the way there at the advice of a man he barely knew, simply because he was told something bad might be in the works.

He took a chance with losing his job, a well paying job, just to get to the reunion and break up any clandestine relationship between Lyn and Will; an old boyfriend or, at the very least, an old love interest.

You offered a great description of Jim's anger over the way he was treated by Lyn before she left, her lack of communication after leaving, and the husband-to-husband warning from Bob Sims after she'd been in Riverdale for several days.

So Jim arrives at the bar, mad as hell, surreptitiously observing his wife and shithead Will doing the mating dance; he watches as Will gently pulls her breasts from her blouse and tongues them, sucking the nipples, Will grinning broadly as Lyn smiles before hurriedly tucking them away once again.

Jim watches in shock as his wife, the mother of his children, boldly removes her panties right there in the booth; leaning against the wall, knees to her chest, looking Will right in the eye as he eagerly takes in her meretricious display.

He watches as Will accepts the panties Lyn freely offers up, blatantly moving them to his face where he inhales deeply through the damp crotch, making an obvious and obscene show of filling his lungs with her fragrance, her scent, the proof of her arousal.

Lyn, her knees still up and now somewhat spread, laughing at Will's vulgar behavior; his eyes fixed at the joining of her thighs which she's clearly left displayed for his profane pleasure.

She's obviously thrilled with his appreciation of her obscene display; undeterred, perhaps even encouraged by his tawdry and lewd response, she continues to expose the most sacrosanct part of her body for his enjoyment.

Finally, she closes her legs, pulls her skirt down, sliding over and taking her place beside him once again. They share side-glances and laughs about her ignoble performance.

Now I ask you: Would the Jim we know from this story, currently enraged and barely in control, would that Jim have been able to resolve his obvious marital issues, his humiliation, despair, outrage, his current conviction that Lyn is about to screw another man - would that Jim solve all those problems in, what, an hour or so of discussion?

All the anger gone in an hour? Everything's cool in just an hour? Lyn's protestations about what she would and wouldn't do are belied by her actions. They were headed to a motel next: Does Jim really doubt what would happen there? Did he really think Will would take her straight back to where she was staying after staring at her pussy and sniffing her panties?

After all, so far that night, Will's batting 1000. Everything he wanted, he got. And he got everything he wanted because she willingly gave it to him.

I think it would make more sense to see Jim lower the boom on Lyn, making her understand the depth of her betrayal, stomp her boyfriend, then fly back home where, I don't know, maybe he refuses to allow her in the house. Maybe they need to work with a marriage counselor or something.

So I think the ending was a bit rushed and Lyn got away with murder. Speaking for myself, it would have taken me a long time to forgive what she did. A long time, if ever.

Anyhow, I really like your story and writing. I wish you were still submitting. Thanks for the two you did submit though. They're thoroughly enjoyed by many. Thanks!

He believed her cock and bull story. Should just left for home like he said in the beginning and gotten the divorce.

then she was sober enough to do everything she did with intent.

After she got back from the bathroom, he should have just described the things he was going to go and do with his old girlfriend that matched what she'd just done, promising to record it for her to see...

If it didn't bother her, he should divorce her because clearly there's not much in the way of love there...

If she was bothered by it, his actions would obviously have then been up to him... Made she could convince him that just the IDEA was enough to make her understand what she did wrong.

But since two wrongs wouldn't have made a right, since then neither would have been able to trust the other - divorce.

I wouldn't kiss her for weeks after she frenched the POS. I would't touch her sexually for a month at least. I would take her to the reunion and scare shithead some more. Drop her at her friends' house and stay in a five star hotel and let her imagine you with a escort. If t wasn't for the kids, I would have left after eating the asshole much worse than he did.

This is also a very good story like the first on the site. You primary character used his brain and interlect and wasn't side tracked by his emotions. Before acting he had nearly all of need information. The only thing which was ever a wild card in the mix was the other person. Now the UNTIL, this character didn't have all the information and what he lacked was unexpectedly was from his wife! He knew Will would lie because he was a lowlife. His wife hid things which were required to make him a good upstanding solid man.

Overall this is a good effort!

Five big Stars!

You should try writing about smart assertive men. the silly cucks that watch their wives tits sucked and pussy show for another man and want to take her to a motel shortly after are a dime a dozen.

Less than an hour after he watches a guy making out with his wife, sucking her tits in public, and after she gives the guy her panties everything is OK? Wow. He scolded her and that's it? She tells her husband that she had no intention of sleeping wth the guy and her husband believes her? It's the author's story so we have to accept it, but if I had watched my wife do that in public I would not have believed that she wasn't planning to go to bed with the guy.

keep her on a short leash

You are 40 year guy whose divorce is almost final. You are bald, just short of ugly, not in good shape, not that intellectual, but good with mechanical things. You are maintenance man at Section 8 apartment complex working on busted sprinkler. You look up and a beautiful 43 year old female with hair and make-up all done wearing shorts and a haltertop with more than an ample amount of her braless 36Cs exposed, is bending over handing you a glass of lemonade and asking if you could repair her broken vacuum cleaner. Of course with this fantasy of yours and a number of other males about to come true you agree to help her. She makes sure you get another eyeful of her fully tanned breasts and begins the hip swaying walk back to her apartment. She used to dance competively- Ballroom and Latin- so she hypnotizes you with her hips. Her vacuum is shot but she keeps close praising how handy you are, touching your arms-oooh what muscles you have-and makes sure her breasts jiggle and sway in front of you. The next day you see someone has left a vacuum in the bin, it works you take it to her. She comes on strong asking for sex. You are very moral. You divorce is not final for a month. She cannot believe you turn her down. But after you are free she shows you what the sex you have only ever dreamed about is like. Loves giving oral...swallows every drop and goes ''Yummy''. Rides you like a cowgirl only wishes she could. Penthouse forum anyone. She has two sons 11 and 7. Been married twice. You become her third. What you do not know is she was screwing a friend of her's husband before you met, continued to do so for years after you were married. They both had decided in early 40s to get college degrees. While you were watchinh her sons she was with him at college library-in the basement 'stacks- at a hidden desk- did I mention she liked sex in public places. She convinces you to move to small town after adoptive father dies she 'steals' money he left adoptive mother. You get job with railroad and are stay away all week every week. She sets up candy store to impress married guy she met at college bookstore. At annual event in small town she meets a wealthy tourist. Starts screwing him using travel for store as cover. She gets instructor job at college in your old town. Screws son's high school vice-principal so son would graduate. Now she is involved with three men. Oh to get you railroad job she screws old friend of hers with position at railroad. She starts looking for younger muscular students to bed. Finds one but has to threaten him for sex.

Your sex life is reduced to Friday night blowjob on your return home. She knows you are a panty sniffer. So nice of her to leave them on bedroom floor for you. She takes bath to ready herself for you on Friday nights. You watch her bathe. Panties pressed to face. HEY DUMMY WHAT'S THAT LARGE SLIMY SPOT ON HER PANTIES THAT IS MAKING YOUR NOSE WET.

FIRST TIME THAT HAPENNED SHE WAS NOT HOME ON FRIDAY WHEN YOU ARRIVED. YOU CALLED HER CELL...DID SHE DOUND FUNNY. YEAH PAL SHE WAS GIVING STUDENT BLOWJOB WHENYOU CALLED AND HIS DICK WAS STILL WAVING IN HER FACE. AFTER SHE HUNG UP HE PUSHED HER BACK ON BED FLIPPED UP SKIRT PULLED HER PANTIES ASIDE AND FUCKED HERVAGAIN TELLING HER TO 'TAKE THAT HOME TO YOUR HUSBAND' AS HE PUT ANOTHER FULL LOAD INTO HER. NO CONDOMS FOR HER. HE MADE SURE TO KEEP HER LEGS UP SO NOTHING LEAKED OUT UNTIL PANTIES WERE BACK IN PLACE

She laughed about you pressing them into your face as you watched her bathe when she saw lover next day.

She made sure that every night for a year the same thing happened on fFriday nights

You find out she is serial cheater

You do nothing

TROPHY THAT TRUE STORY

.. the bottle of champaign....

After all that he orders a bottle of champagne to celebrate? Poor ending.

You have got to be kidding me, she was having all these quiet conversations with him and others, and her husband goes to have makeup sex with her? They are nowhere near being out of the woods. She planned to screw Will and then try to cover it up. Is it something in the water that women who don't work start to forget where the money for their lives come from, for the house they just had to have, the new car, the whatever else it is they wanted and got? It's to the point of stupidity. News flash, first the counseling then the make up sex...

bared in a public bar with tits out and getting sucked, pulling dress up exposing groin, stripping panties off and giving to another man. She was drunk and ready to party, the party being getting fucked all night long. Along came hubby and destroyed the plan. So now she is in back up mode trying to save her meal ticket. She planned the entire event on the phone long before she left home. To keep this bitch is to wait on the next time she has an opportunity to get fun because hubby is busy earning her free ride. When you marry a whore, one who fucks you because you pay her way, you have a whore for a wife. 2* for RAAC!

She already committed adultery, only reason she didn't fuck the shitface is because husband got there in time. It was planned premeditated and nearly completely executed act of betrayal. Only thing he should have done is divorced her ass, and probably beat a hell of a lot more shit out of the motherfucker. Wife is clueless and got some serious issues. Husband works all time, gives her all she could ask for and it is still not enough. As he rightfully pointed out, any married couple that have brains and use it would talk if there are issues, if she's not happy, talk, need a holiday, romance , talk, need a new spark, talk and even more, think and do something ( and fucking around is not one of those things) to get your husband to wake up a bit and realise that you really love him, adore him and appreciate all the things he gives you, but you want romance and more attention. So many men lose a touch with real world because they are too consumed by endless effort to keep wife happy, cheating is not a solution, killing marriage and family, putting two kids at stake, that is not a solution, her concept of having tits sucked and pussy touched give panties that was a present from husband... That is all ultimate betrayal, I can not see any self respecting man ever let off a bitch off the hook for such an epic fuck up. At least I would not.

Ouch!! Wrong to take champagne. It's not the time to celebrate. Whiskey should have been his choice. They have a heavy work load due in their marriage. Well written except for the champagne part. Gave you 3*s.

AMerryman

I like reconciliation but i really don't get the feeling that she knows why what she did is wrong.

Love this story

But the last paragraph put Jim in contention for the title of biggest moron. What he should be planning on is viewing the tapes with Lyn giving him a running commentary explaining how it's not what it looks like until his bullshit meter is calibrated and he dumps her ass.

sorry all of us are assaulted by many things in our lives every day, that's no excuse or reason. You portray women as basically stupid and unable to be able to tell what is right from wrong because they are leading lives that have many influences on them. If you commit adultery you commit adultery, doesn't matter why, doesn't matter when, doesn't matter what influences. The act is the act and speaks of not loving your spouse or your family, of disrespect for them, and for betraying them at the most basic level. This woman was carrying on an affair and was not to dumb to know she was going to commit sexual acts with her fellow adulterer. She needed to be dumped. You also portray you husbands as to weak and indecisive to actual take the actions necessary to leave their shams of marriages.

Poor guy,she can do whatever and it will be partly his fault.

I am quit sure he didn't attend collage. And having a laps in gammer skills is sirius.

But hubby has a bigger problem than he is being allowed to see. She hid conversations from her husband. She showed him massive amounts of disrespect in the time leading up to the reunion and didn't even try to talk to him after she got there. No, she wasn't sorry for what she did, she was entitled. I think that he needs to do a lot of thinking about his marriage before he fucks her used pussy again. And yeah, if her friend's husband has already noticed something is going on, it is. She was divorce worthy before she even left for the reunion. He should have crippled Will and left her in that town to finish her reunion. I know a lot of college linebackers, was one myself and I will guarantee you that the mentality it takes to play that position doesn't allow someone to mess with your girl. And that doesn't change as you get older, in fact it gets to be more of a driving force. He should have slapped her, figuratively, before things got out of hand at home. That was when he should have given the ultimatum. She would have probably told him to get fucked and gone to the reunion anyway, but it would have been over sooner.

Just before the end, in the bar, Hubby says ...

"Looking back I can see how this episode is partially my fault. I should have been more in tune to your needs but you need to understand that you have really hurt me and frankly I don't have the trust in you that I had two days ago. It's going to take a while to rebuild that trust and it may never get back to where it was."

How in Hell he plans to get his cavalier wife even drunker and have make-up sex (replacing the guy who was sucking her tits an hour ago) BEFORE getting FULLY reconciled and on the same marital-behavior page ... probably also including professional counseling ... is totally incomprehensible.

That is the basis for my 4* vote. Paraphrasing Hubby ... That was a deal (integrity of story) breaker just by itself!

but, since she believes her own drivel

"Please, don't talk about ending our marriage over this, it's not that serious"

"Truthfully, how important are a pair of panties and someone getting a look at my pussy in the grand scheme of things"? and grinding against each other in the booth and on the dance floor, and giving full access to her breasts for everyone to see.

it is too bad she didn't believe the promise she made when getting married meant as much as the "trophy" she promised to Will. Because at some point in the future, she will feel the obligation to honour some other wish to another man.

because after all, it's not that serious.

this is an excellent story with a few flaws that excels at enraging anonymous trolls .

Both his (hers) tales make the husband cuckold wimps. Strongly suspect scores have been "cooked" to make shitty tales seem good.

No, I don't buy her explanation at all. She did too much planning for the reunion and her 'promise'. He should have waited for the confrontation to see what would have happened. After all she did in the bar-a public place- I think she would have went all the way. She was feeling old, neglected, lonely, etc. etc. Poor Thing. (sarcasm). Then she thinks that she did nothing wrong! Her next step would have been 'it only was sex, she promised him 20 years ago'. This guy has to dump this stupid woman as soon as possible. She still doesn't get it.

It was a well-written story and did hold my interest. Thank You.

Sounds like a man after my own heart.

He gave her enough rope to hang herself but wouldn't let it go to the pont that he couldn't have a chance at saving the marriage.

Then gave shithead a knuckle morals adjustment.

Set up the rules and intended for them to be obeyed.

What a man!
