All Comments on 'One Slip'

I hope you can write some more!

What a refreshing change from the women in most of these stories who comply with the arsehole bloke without a wimper.

Should be more of it!

BTW, the Troubador DID publish some sequels... And I believe he has more in store.

Great story.

Could have several senarios. More about Donna's sexual appetite.

Great Story. Let her confess, and get some payback from this low life Gil. Under the circumstances, this is very believable too. I'm so glad it wasn't one of those fucking unbelievable stories where the wife fucks 300 of the blackmailers business associates to keep her husband from finding her out.

One twist on this. You might have her husband be a little to harsh on her, and then she finds out that he too had fucked his secretary, once.

They then iron out their difficulties, and live happily, and faithfully together from now on.

Great story

I believe this is the first story of this type I've read in which the woman acted this way. Good for you; good for her. Perhaps a continuation with her "understanding" husband accepting her and helping her would be very well accepted, as well.

this is the way most women would react not like the other stories where they become whores to the man. REALLY FINE JOB. hope you carry this farther with her telling hubby and him maybe getting upset but forgiving her.

YES!

This addressed almost all of the inherent problems with blackmail stories. Donna may be the first woman in one of these who realized that all she would be doing is giving more that the blackmailer can use on her. Donna is one of the few to realize that a spouse may forgive for a one time incident if the one who cheated is honest and is immediate with disclosing what happened. However, if the cheater repeatedly lies and spends more and more time with the blackmailer than with the spouse (when it could have been dealt with by a simple "Honey, we have to talk"), the odds are against it.

As for the calls to continue -- and especially the one for Steve to have slept with Darlene -- please don't. This is perfect as is. You took it to a point where, as you said, the reader must decide for him or her self what happens. To follow it up would pigeonhole it into only one outcome. This is not a nice tidy story, and it shouldn't have a nice tidy ending. Adding Darlene into it would only diminish Donna's resolve and her actions. If Steve DID cheat on her, then her remorse, her not giving into Gil, would be lessened.

Bless you. When people leave negative comments on "Loving Wives" stories, especially comments on how it is the old cliches once again, so many times there is a follow up comment asking the "why are you here" chestnut. THIS is why I'm here. You took what could have been cliched and made it new and real. It is for stories such as these that I continue coming here.

I was kinda worried there, for a moment, that you might have gone the quick and dirty route. Thank God you didn't! Finally, a wife who shows some backbone.

Great story so far. Can hardly wait for the next installment.

I have to second the comments of others and say I'm pleased that you didn't go the way most other authors do. Whether you get talked into a sequel or not. I hope Donna's husband doesn't throw her out.

It was beginning to seem that only hackneyed and cliched plots were permitted here. It's just fine as written. A different, longer story showing what the couple do the jerk would be nice. There's gotta be scores of ways for it to play out.

Now, maybe some stories about cuckolds who decide enough is enough then do something about it. Subtly and with imagination. Turning worm stories.

Very good story Patricia. I found myself in a similar situation several years ago. Unfortunately I caved in and did my blackmailers wishes. Bad mistake. Oh sure, I had some great sex, and got to let the dark side out to play, but it ended up costing way to much.

Keep developing the story.

I like the ideal of a great comeuppance which this has the earmarks of becoming.

I liked this story.

I agree that this story is good as it is. I don't think it needs one ending.

It could have multiple endings and still not harm the story as it stands.

A female character who is sexy AND principled!!!!

Excellent story! You had a very good story line with a twist. You have to have a sequel, I think everyone that read it is dying to know what happened when she confronted her husband. Keep up the excellent writing & PLEASE, PLEASE, write a sequel.

It leaves me with a very nice feeling, which I wouldn't

want spoiled by a revenge sequel, particularly since Gil

isn't the important character here. He isn't worth a second

story. I was referred to this, my first of your stories,

by a comment from a reader of a far lesser one. Your

uncommonly good writing is unexpected on this web site.

For all those readers who need to know what happens next,

I'll offer my thoughts. Of course Steve is very hurt, but

he's also very proud that he has a wife with so much

intelligence and such striking character. After all, the

pain from a cheating spouse is not about sex, but rather

about deceit, and Donna's honesty and straightforwardness

more than compensate for her "one slip." On second thought,

maybe a sequel that affirms that love and appreciation for

each other might be nice. And if I'm wrong, and Steve

throws Donna out, send me her phone number.

Thanks for such nice writing. I'm looking forward to your

other stories.

By the way, the story made me think a lot about that

excellent film, "The Contender."

Good story and well told. Technically now: There are a couple

weak places, such as the sex scene. Its not bad but I think it could have been done stronger. I want to be clear that none of the story is bad but as I said there are a couple weak places. One is the section were she thinks that he

picked on the wrong woman, just needs a little something. Good flashback andnice touch with her thinking about his pickup. Nice opening too.Personal now: A minor point and a medium point. The minor one is the sex scene, I think it should have been longer with more eroticness to it. Again its

not bad but just for my tastes it could have been longer. :)

The medium point is Boy she gave in fast. Was it just his good looks or what? Talk about easy.

Now for my ideas for any sequel Patricia might do or I might write.Going along with what I said about she gave in fast. I can think of two reasons she might have. It could be either of these reasons or both. First she has been lusting after him for some time, a couple years or more maybe. She has

pushed it down and kept it under control, with maybe one or two fantasies over the time. She may have even thought it was gone or completely under control but it was there under the surface and choose that moment to erupt and she loses

control. Second reason could be that he was already working on her and she didn't realize it. Lets say three to four weeks before this he gave her a neck massage. Her husband could have been around and even known about it but it was

innocent and he kept his hands were they were supposed to be. However it was a long relaxing message and half way through he leaned over and said in a soft voice how beautiful she was and how attracted to her he was. Could be it was so

soft she didn't even hear it with her conscious mind. Or what she did hear she rationalized by saying to herself that it was OK for friends to compliment friends. She does it to both sexes all the time. Perhaps included in this was

them exercising together. He just happened to start showing up at the gym the same time she did. And he exercises in tight shorts and a tight top. First time he showed up at the same time she did he was wearing sweats but after they

get to the stair master or treadmill he took off the sweats reveling the tight shirt with his muscles straining and the tight shorts that show off a certain mound. She was shocked at first but still looked at his shorts. They were in

front of a wall mirror and so even though she tried to keep her eyes straight ahead she could still see his straining muscles and his speedos, She spent a lot of time looking at her control panel and other patrons.

Maybe she figures this out or her husband wonders also why it was so fast so he asks questions. But first when she tells him I think he will want to go some place more private to talk it out and I think he will want to punch out

the guy. And I can see him saying after thinking about the Dalgreen's divorce and maybe a couple of others he knows of that Gil has caused enough divorces already. Donna won't get what he means immediately. He says that on his way out either to call Darlene's brother (I didn't know Mike had a sister) or to go to Gil's office to make sure he doesn't remove the cameras

Wonderful as it is Patti. A sub-genre, indeed! It is a compact story, succinct and probing. I am glad to see you have given rise to evocative stories here. A pity if the sex scene is considered weak, but overall that particular setting merely shows the tediousness of forced, or semi-forced rutting sex.

A female character with principles, what will you think of next?

Myouknowwho

Patti, good story as usual. Like my How High a Price, there are lots and lots of endings that could fit. It would have been fun to hear how your wife presented her transgression, and how her husband took it.

I agree that her action is the only reasonable direction for the woman to take. I also agree that by coming out like this the husband will eventually accept it, and understand we all screw up (maybe that is a wrong way to phrase it) occasionally. But the angst created in the husband and wife as it works itself out would have added a lot of emotion to the story.

This story should stand as is, it's more fun to imagine what would happen, than to have a second chapter ruin the mystery.

Good story but it needs a sequel.

i'm a big fan of the Troubador and i thought his How High a Price with multible endings summitted by others was a masterful idea! i thought your story was excellent. the ending is excellent and can stand alone. it also is left open for another chapter by you or, other ending by other writers. keep up the good work, would love to more of your stories.

don

Patricia: I never fail to enjoy any of your stories, and this one is no exception. You developed your leading lady so well with so few words. I knew right away that she was both intelligent and principled...and very much in love with her husband.

I heartily agree with "Anonomous in Frozen Ohio." To me, his take on your story is both astute and correct. Any sequel would simply be a flogging of the 'Gil' character and the 'Donna' character being made to pay penance. The brilliance of Troubador's story was to leave up to the individual reader what happened next.

Please continue with your submissions. Unlike so many stories that are posted in this category and seem to be designed to tittilate the libidos of junior high school boys, it is refreshing to read an adult tale written for adults.

Thank you.

Will wonders never cease? It's refreshing to find an author who realizes that actions have consequences, and that you can't always take the easy way out.

The characters and emotions seem very real.

I do hope to see you do a sequel, and I would like it to be about her opening up with her husband, and finding him to be caring, understanding, and though: hurt, forgiving.

The part that could really display the loving and forgiving qualities would be for her to find that she is now pregnant, and though it might be her husband's, she knows it is almost certainly Gil's from that tryst.

Her husband's forgiveness and willingingness to give the child his name and raise it as his own would show those positive traits in him as well as provide her the conflicting emotions of knowing her marriage and family are going to be intact, while thinking of her husband's unselfish loving reaction and her moment of passion when she betrayed him.

In short, the most positive reactions that she could have only dreamed of taking place would actually cause her to suffer a little more inside from her sense of guilt.

I will add that, the sequel I suggest tracks very similarly to a local situation known in the community where a married woman with a reputation of cheating on her husband for years recently became pregnant with their fourth child, but this is over six years after her husband had had a vasectomy. Thus, he knows and the whole community knows the baby is not his.

And his reaction has been, " I don't want to break up a family of four children and am willing to accept my wife's mistake and forgive her.

Well written, though I do not accept adultery as an acceptable form of recreation, it does happen. This little gal however was honest enough to realize her foolishness and accept resposibility while confronting her fears. Hope hubby realizes loseing her will be costly, she made a horrible mistake, we all are prone to such, yet this girl needs another chance. Not quite the dumb blonde this one.

The wife's honesty shows that she does have a some amount of respect for the husband. He should give her 50% and half-time child visits because of that. Still he has to realize that the blackmailing is probably the only reason he heard about it from her. Since she cheated, we know she doesn't love him. IF she really loved him, she would've been unable to cheat. It only takes one time to make a person a 'cheater' and to disqualify them as spouses.

Gil needs a cellmate with HIV named "Big Bubba", but a good asskicking first before the cops get involved.

Good story would have given a 5 if you carried it out to full term with the results of her telling him!

SEQUEL!

Thanks for writing!

Sexmate!

Outstanding! You just keep pumping out excellent stories! I'm kind of torn between seeing what you would come up with in a sequel, and wanting to just leave this story as is. A toss up. Keep pen in hand!

I hate stupid stories where women easily give into being blackmail instead of going to the D.A.

this is a woman who may be worth reconciling with.

mind, it might not work, the lack of trust would

be very hard to overcome.

but Gil and his scheme come to an end. hopefully prison. but to do that she would probably need taped evidence, and her talk has warned him.

good story.

It is a crude situation, but Donna did the right thing, because come hell or high water she can walk away with her head up high. Her intent to tell Steve everything could cause Steve to go up Gil with a baseball bat and wear his head out.

Let us all applaud the cheating slut. She was not raped. She just wanted some strange cock. And she got it. That doesn't make her a faithful loving wife and it does not make her an honorable woman. That makes her a cheating slut.

I liked this story. Donna made a mistake and regretted it. But she responded honourably at the blackmail attempt. I would realy like to see a sequel

This story is all about what is wrong with our human society today. Instead of enjoying a good fuck, all sorts of morals have to come to bear about the whys and wherefores that a naked cock and creamy pussy cannot enjoy each other as God intended and called "good". This story and others like it make me want to puke!

take somebody else story and tell us to do something with it.you got more nerve than dick tracy.get your on story and do that if you can.

What jarred me here is that she decided that this was a one time thing, and not going to turn into an affair, but still when Gil asked her to meet him... she suggests lunch?????

A seriously repentant woman would try to avoid him as much as possible, not invite herself to lunch with him.

Not a convincing scene.

Blackmail has no place in fantasy sex.

Your story was mentioned on the New Story Review Thread. ~ Red

you make realise how many stupid people there are in the world.Cool that you've registered here, shame you don't have the brain to write any stories. Oh by the way -excellent staotypatricia

I don't know why everybody was upset w/ the way you ended the story. It is your story and you can end it any way you want. I liked the way the story ended but maybe that is because of the my outlook on life or maybe because of my past experiences. Either way thanks for the story and if the other people don't like it they don't have to read any more of your stories but I bet they aren't writing any stories themselves

jUST LIKE THE LAST ONE I READ TOALLY INCOMPLETE. LIFE IS NOT LIKE THAT WHY SHOULD A MADE UP STORY BE THAT WAY.

check out the drivel from the previous faceless wonder. With such enlightened commentary as that, I fear for the survival of the species.

<P>

I'll opine that Patricia has forgotten more about writing erotica than the previous anonymous "genius" will ever know. Thanks again, darlin', for a story that has become a classic on Literotica, a benchmark standard for cheating spouse stories.

Way to go Patricia! Donna has guts and integrity. Great start for all the malcontents who would have her drawn and quartered for a stupid indiscretion. Not to mention the scum bag that attempted to make a whore out of her was exposed for the pimp he was. Well done, let's have more like that.

i am unsure if she truly regrets it, but the circumstances; but she willing to do something extraordinary

as a person, who took responsibility for her error. a person willing to accept the consequences

Finally a story where the victim has the sense to realize that blackmail does indeed work both ways.Wow, this story has an element of realism to it, unlike most on this site.This woman has more sack than the average UK man,eh?

Why do some people call getting screw by somebody else a mistake,SHE WENT TO HER HUSBAND PARTY AND MADE A FOOL OUT OF HERSELF,now the author trying to make a hero out of her.I like this author but no way is she any thing but a slut.

There are people that are, as you call them "sluts", that do indeed commit premeditated infidelity but there are many that simply have, what we call in the mental health profession, "thinking errors". Also, there are people that are very adept at getting others to make "thinking errors". They are called predators or salesmen. These predators realize that timing is critical. Catch a person at the right time, under stress, drugs, alcohol or other emotional states and it is easier to get them to commit a "thinking error". Most people are susceptable which doesn't make them a bad person. It's how they react when the innappropriate behavior, caused by the "thinking error", is over that tells you about their character. Don't worry, it's a common mistake. I don't think you're stupid or a moron. You probably were just really hurt in a previous relationship and as we all know that most people get angry when they are hurt. After all, anger is easier to control than hurt, in which, you have very little or no control. GREAT STORY PAT. IT SPURRED MANY GREAT ENDINGS. You can really tell a lot about a person by the comments they leave. VERY ENTERTAINING, I liked the story, too

Good story. She was too smart for the blackmailer. The one thing she needs to do is quit drinking so much. Thinking straight is much better, especially without her husband there. Also, it is true. Once you give in to blackmail, it can only get worse. Confess early.

You indeed leave the reader to finish the story, and that's oh so good. Thanks Rich

Is the guilt for betraying. or for not having good experience.

Not willing to be blackmailed, her only option was to tell her sad tale to the husband.

Okay Donna slipped up but in my head Steve eventually forgives her. People screw up all the time the difference with Donna is that she realizes her mistake, feels the guilt, and accepts responsibility. She didn't get drawn into Gil's blackmail, instead she is going to admit her transgression.

Also in my head is the notion that they file charges against Gil. He's a raging jackass and deserves it!

Ok anyone can make a mistake maling a msutake is not failure making the same mistake twice is BUT to face it head on that's strength and that was one strong women. It would be nice to see if her husband is as strong in his reaction. Another good one Pat

that some lady stood up to a blackmailer. In loads of stories on this site we've read of blackmailers giving the photos to the lady. What idiots! It's so obvious - sex might be morally offensive but blackmail is a serious crime. Once the pictures are in her possession she has all the power.

I wish her well in my imagination.

Thank you for finally giving a woman with a shred of character.

I rated it 5*****s because in a story a woman finally says "No" to a blackmailer. The story may have had minor problem where, in places, it was a bit difficult to read and understand. Neverthess, I am extremely pleased to see that finally there is a story where a woman uses good judgment instead of doing whatever the blackmailer or liar tells her to do.

She may not even need to tell her husband. Instead go the DA with the story and photos. As a victom the court will protect her identity. Maybe it will come out but, just as likely, the DA will get a search warrant and locate the cameras in his office. And the DA will talk to the other victoms and get a conviction via of a plea bargain and she may never need to testify.

Recall the following:

'She knew better than to go without her husband Steve. But he had an emergency at one of his construction sites at almost the last minute and had talked her into going without him.

'"Honey, you're all dressed up, the kids are at the sitter's and you surely don't want to stay here or in the truck while I try to fix this mess. Besides, the party will be full of our friends and its good for you to get out. I hate missing this, but equipment failure is no reason you shouldn't have a good time."

'So she had gone, and indeed had a good time.'

I can see the conversation:

Steve asked her, "Was there anything I did that cause you to cheat."

"Of course there is. I was only doing what you must have expected," Donna replied.

Steve cannot comprehend that Donna would give that reply. "Is this the 'Twilight Zone'?". How can you possible believe that?

"If you will listen without interrupting, I'll explain."

Steve's curiosity was aroused. 'This I got to hear,' he though. "Explain, I'll listen."

"First, you promised to take me to the party and I spent hours shopping for just the right dress and getting ready. I was all excited and intended for you to get lucky after the party.

"Second, you broke your promise and put your work ahead of your wife and promise." Steve started to explain that it was an emergency but Donna held up her hand and continued. "You tell me that Gil did not force me; however, by the same token, no one forced you to go to the job. It was you own free will that youou put your work before your promise to your wife."

"Third, I tried to tell you that I didn't think I should go. Not once in our 15 year of marriage have I gone to a party or club where there is alcohol and dancing without you. Even when I was a single girl, I never went alone to a party or nightclub. It was always with a date or one or more girls. So this is not like a 'girl's night out' where we watch each other so that nothing happens.

"Fourth, it was you that insisted that I go and have a good time. Therefore, what else could you expect when, with her husband's encouragement and blessing, a married woman dressed in fuck me clothes goes alone to a party where she is given alcoholic drinks and dances with good looking horny guys that are hitting on her?

"Steve, without your insisting that I go and have a good time, I would never have gone alone to a party. And, in this case, I was especially vulnerable since I had spend most of the day getting ready and planning on making love with you with you after the party. Therefore, everything came together to create the perfect storm. That will never happen again."

Well written, Steamy (if not smarmy) sex scene and it wasn't a cookie cutter. 5 stars for me.

Still, I want a conclusion.

This is certainly one wife who deserves a second chance. I can see counseling to get past the feelings of hurt and betrayal, but the quick admission should go a long way towards forgiveness.

One commenter sited Steve as being at fault for sending Donna alone. However, he should have been able to expect that she would have been safe among friends. He might have acted differently if she was going to a party full of strangers.

Of course, the fact that Donna was seduced by a friend of Steve's should go in her favor. If it had been a stranger, she probably would never have gone to his office.

Furthermore, Donna appeared to be very understanding of Steve's reason for not attending so she would be hard pressed to use that as the excuse of being an abandoned wife.

My ending has Darlene's brother (sheriff's department) accompanying Steve to Gil's office where Steve is able to cold-cock Gil, having the Sheriff say that he tripped and hit his head on the desk. Then they have Gil arrested for blackmail and rape, perhaps more tapes showing her trying to push him off several times. Gil goes to prison for a few years and Steve and Donna get past the incident and come out stronger on the other end.

Great story! Like a breath of fresh air having a woman with some brains.

I know some will say once a cheater always a cheater and kick her to the curb. Perhaps if they ever really had a woman they would sing a different tune.

This could have been a good story. Without another chapter we have no idea what happened next. We could guess I suppose. Still we really do not know. I give this tale an incomplete.

wanting to play, but not pay. TK U MLJ LV NV

Reading this story for the second time, realised that it doesn't need a part two. Everything is there for the conclusion.

Still she did cheat on her husband, and it revealing the truth, there would probably be some type of retribution he would want. That's all we have to figure out on our own.

cornhole reamed, the meaty cock lustily smoked, betrayed!

Where are their submissions to be found? Chain Stories?

Its one of the all time miracles how women can dilude themselves into believing men will suddenly change for them: Assholes will magically treat them right, Cheaters will cheat with them but then magically become honest persons. If it wasn't so sad it would be hilarious.

The Question remains: Did she do this because she is a good person who had one slip as the title suggests or is it that she is a bad person who is just to intelligent to let herself be sucked into such a scheme.

An interesting one to think about, but whichever the answer is, it could be looked at this way: however bad cheating made her, she did a good deed by exposing the piece of shit. That's something the stories tend to overlook, it's always about the quick and easy payback against the male lover, as if he's just some silly shmuck who stuck his dick in an easy lay, while the cheating wife gets a long, painful and supposedly karma-based destruction.

Yet Gil tends to reflect the way most of these men are written - vicious predators who are not just out to wreck one woman's life, but whole families, and will happily keep doing it over and over again with one woman after another, because their writers tend to put them beyond the reach of the same karma they inflict on the cheating wife.

He is undeniably a wrong-doer in this case, while her actions are questionable, and it's nice to see the karma in the right place.

Kudos to the author, and while this kind of ending would normally annoy me, it works for the story.

I have read many endings to this story and by far the best is: 'One Slip: A Hard Fall' by 'Joesephus'.

... really liked it. Good for her!

A story is supposed to have a beginning, middle, and END. You waste my time by writing half a story with no end!

This is the first and last story I read by you!

This story's ending reminded me of that old story "The Lady, or the Tiger?" for some reason. I'd say Gil got himself the tiger, but I wonder which one Donna gets.

Anyway, I love the way this story takes the whole idea of a blackmail scheme and pokes a great big hole in it. And I do like that she takes her punishment like a man. Or a woman. Same difference.

I do have one very minor complaint, and that's about David. He's not explained as a friend of Donna's until after his sudden appearance, which meant when he showed up and intervened on "Mrs. Bellows"'s behalf I was distracted slightly with wondering "How's the restaurant's bouncer know her so well?" and kind of thought of him as a deus ex machina. A brief sentence when she names Sanderson's as the restaurant to meet at, something to the effect of it's a place where she and her husband were regulars or where the owner/manager/maiter-dee/intimidatingblackmanonstaff is an old friend of hers would have prevented that. Like I said, a very minor complaint.

more women would learn to be this strong.

I have no trouble with the ending.

Superbly well-written. I see there's a 'trail' of endings by other authors - they should be interesting although I don't think they'll match the standard of the original.

i agree with nakdsub's comments if your gonna write a story, FINISH IT< this is pathetic

"Donna took a deep breath. She straightened her shoulders, blinked back a threatened tear from her eye and reached deep inside herself to a reservoir of strength she had never known she had."

I guess I could complain and ask where that strength was when she truly needed it. However, I am smart enough to know that we are often at our strongest following moments of weakness. Strength is only formed through adversity.

Beautifully written. A wonderful story. I am glad you depicted what so often fails to appear in stories on this site. She didn't give in to the blackmail. She stood up to this creep and took responsibility or her mistake - even knowing what it might cost her. She is a tragic hero. If only she had stood up earlier. I also love the perspective of the cheating wife. The husband may well find it impossible to forgive her. However, if he could have a window into her thoughts . . . he might just realize that even though she screwed up royally, she loves him deeply and will never stray again. But alas, such a window is not possible and he will undoubtedly never be able to know for sure the depth of her love. Or is it possible?

For those of us that can't even write a coherent sentence, to leave us with an unfinished story is extremely frustrating. Bad writer - BAD! PS I do like your writing, I just don't like unfinished stories.

Do you get bored with your own stories? FINISH your damn stories.

start if don't intend to finish. adios to you and all the erst ur writings

read a number of jack_straw's stories and when I got to "One Slip: Difficult Choices," he indicated that his story was a sequel to this story. A little research told me other authors had also written sequels. Back to this story (The first I have read that was written by patricia51 - I think.). It was extremely well-written and her descriptions gave me a clear picture of the characters and the settings in which they found themselves. I did, however, notice three things that could have been written differently or that were never discussed. 1. Why were they going to a party that was held at Gil's employer? Their friendship did not seem to be enough to be invited to another company's party. 2. Was Gil's wife at the party? If so, did she not notice his absence? 3. The morning after the party she got everyone off to work or school. Does that mean the party was not held on Friday or Saturday night?. That seems weird.

allowing readers to outguess any events that follow. TK U MLJ LV NV

If you don't finish your stories you get a "1". I know that authors sometimes decide it's "fun" to write a story with no ending. Read the comments about those stories. You'll find almost unanimous anger from reader's complaining about unfinished stories. So my only comment is, either finish your stories or don't post them.

If you can't finish it, author, don't start it. Solid "1" because no "0."

You created a very well written intense story which gained more of my attention with every sentence and then you deliberately drove off a cliff. What a crushing blow you dealt me and I do not even know you.

You deliberately created what I call a "ghost story".........remember the stories about old multi-masted wooden sailing ships with no crews wandering around the oceans in a never ending search for ....... ? Well there are many many unfinished ghost stories on Literotica reflecting any reason from an authors lost interest, illness or perhaps even death. But to create a ghost story deliberately - particularly with such a fine story start - is really an insult to many many readers who were looking for the beginning, the middle, and the end of a good story. I will add this to my growing file of ghost stories, noting this one is an overt action to tease and wound.

Why write a unfinished story?

Another Skank cheater story.

Here is a well written story that requires you to think. She cheats - too much alcohol but not drugged - but then goes to husband when "friend" tries to keep affair going through blackmail. How many stories has a skank tried to get out of trouble by claiming blackmail only to have husband tell her it's bs because he would have stomped on the blackmailing sob if told? Husband is off-handedly referred to as strait-laced and conservative so she is highly likely to be blowing up her marriage by telling him. Try thinking about the situation rather than waiting for an answer that you can hate or applaud. Each time you think about the story you can come to a new ending.

5*

From Patricia.

I like that even if she did wrong, in the end she can regain some respect.

I'm glad you showed a wife with some degree of strength and integrity who would rather confess her slip to her husband rather than submit to blackmail which would only have become progressively worse.

I wonder how Gil's boss is going to feel about him using company property to seduce and blackmail married women.

Fuck you are LAZY, finish your fucking stories! 1*

She came out of the ether just a tad late. Maybe she'll learn when not to open her legs for her next husband.

It would be a good story IF you would finish it. Always finish what you start!!

I admire people who can write and have imagination to find new stories. But I'll never understand writers who don't finish their stories. The story belong to them, so the end must be theirs too, not a mission to the readers...That's the reason for the 3 *...

Some call it a moment of weakness, some just a mistake others it's a moment of insanity. Me, cheating can not be excused, period. Excuses are just the last possible rationalization of the weak minded that cheated on their spouses. So, she or he, as the case may be, is.... Just Another Slut.

situations like this are a shitstorm waiting to happen. he trusts his wife and knows she got herself ready to look good and sexy for him and he lets her down or so she thinks. alcohol, butthurt wife, dancing,asshole friend, etc. lets go to my office was the give away. she knew the guy would bang her given half a chance. perfect storm and i have seen it happen. i like the way you left it. 5 stars

People like JPB are infamous for doing it. So are some others. But I would like to express my strong dislike for this type of ending. I find it to be neither clever or entertaining. The story was well written, but leaving the characters as you have was simply a waste. A waste of my time to read it, since it was unfinished and a waste of your time to write it since you clearly could not think of an ending.

Would it be nice to know what Steve does? Sure!

I would have been more upset if it ended without her going to either Steve or Gil.

Knowing she did the smart thing and going to Steve works for me!

SO many Loving Wives get into trouble because they don't trust enough in their husband's love to tell them then truth.

Or, as she said, they give in to the blackmail, and just get in deeper and deeper, and when their husband eventually finds out (which they always do!) it is exponentially worse.

waste readers time with only half the story. Too bad can not rate less than 1

Tags: I have noticed these kinds of tags before. Is this what Laurel, Manu, or their system does when an author does not supply tags? I would have substituted "expression ass" for "expression face." (HA!)
