You're kidding, right?

His wife screwed her way up the food chain, and he takes her back because it was obviously him she was in love with the whole time? Surely this is some tongue-in-cheek story, where the epilogue sets everything aright. I have no trouble with long stories, but when they are long and end like this, I regret my waste of anticipation and time. No thanks.

A well written story

But she sure fucked her way through a lot of people for what they could offer... what does that make her? Not enjoyable to see these two people scew up so badly in such a sad way.

Good story

Regardless of the comments you get, it was a good story. It's sad that they lost their way and it wouldn't be the first time that alcohol screwed up somebody's life, but stuff like that happens. I liked the ending. It's a fairy tale, of course, and so reality shouldn't play a part, but the realistic part of my brain asks if a girl who has lived in the high dollar world of fame and fortune for so long can ever be happy going back to the hero's world. It's not a question of whether she loves him, but can she be happy and comfortable measuring what she has against what she had (materially). The romantic in me says love conquers all, but I'm too old to really believe that anymore. As to the comments about her character because she moved up the food chain, sometimes I wonder how much world knowledge some readers have. If you're single and attractive and you can fuck anyone you want and have a good life while you're doing it, I don't know many people who wouldn't do exactly what she did. Most people in this life want money and comfort and a lot of sex, not necessarily in that order, and if they're not doing anything illegal or betraying anybody to get it, why the hell shouldn't they. As usual, Britease, I liked your story.

Sorry Britease. Didn't like it.

Up to your normal standard of a well written story. But I dislike both the main characters. You have given the husband no spine at all and so daft his character could only be made up. And you have made the once faithful wife into a woman that gets paid in kind and money. And yet somehow you ahve got these two people together? Well done for that. i am not sure I could achieve such a thing.

Infuriating and Beautiful Story

She did things that were unforgiveable. And he was terribly stupid about it all. It seems like neither of them should ever drink or even go to a party!

I hated it and admired it, and could not stop reading it. If only they had never gotten married, then it would be a normal Romance soap opera. But here with married marker you have to be a role model and can not be forgiven. Perhaps this was the true version of the Cinderella story..... Excellent Writing! Horrifying constructs.

Just another round heeled slut who gets her way. Fuck the bitch and the whore she is.

Lousy, really lousy story. Well written, as usual from Britease but the plot just sucks.

Well written??

<p>Well....</p>

<p>Sorry I tried, but your two main characters Glen and Jill, dude, they were so unlikeable that I couldn't believe it. I mean Glen wandered into unlikeableness, but Jill ran screaming into to</p>

<p>And then, when you had her sleeping her way around the world, and even then he couldn't stop holding a torch for her talking about how no one compared to her and how she was the one who got away? Even when all the locals, who still knew they were/used to be, an item were all talking about how much of a slut she was, he still felt a since of it was his fault?</p>

<p>It seems the story was supposed to (read: I personally believe meant to be) a deep true love conquers all story, but for me it ended up being woman who sleeps with anything that moves, before, during, and possibly after her marriage, and husband with zero self respect, zero common sense, and even more of a deep ability to shoulder blame where it wasn't his. You made him a willing cuckold who couldn't wait to get her back and do it again after years of her not divorcing him, but her "publicly" sleeping with any man who caught her interest around the world.</p>

<p>Tried but couldn't wrap my head around it, I just didn't like the characters at all. I like various things you've written in the past, but this story, no, not really. I mean how was this remotely a happy ending? His wife was spreading it for every man she smiled at by the end and they still stayed together because he said it was really all his fault that fateful night she called him her employee while she was flirting and it all went downhill from there. >=(</p>

<p>Just because the story says at the end they stayed together because she "eventually" chose him over another man (after working her way through a large part of the population) doesn't make that story a happy ending, especially if the reader by the end of the story feels both of the characters are so unlikable by their actions that they really don't care if they stayed together or not. =(</p>

DanielQSteele1 - wow!

Great comment. As for me, I thought story was a fine read. I also liked how you played the GOD card up front. It's your right. Sometimes I am not sure what the author is shooting for. No question here - thanks for writing and good luck.

mondliecht57mondliecht57about 14 years ago
Very unrealistic

Come on, she runs off after being rejected and shacks up with who knows how many others, still married. She loves him, but makes no attempt at reconciliation. She's an adulteress and practically turns into a whore and he takes her back. Give me a break. This couple act like two jerks. Can't believe the comments by other authors that should know better. Romance, my ass, neither one knows the meaning of love, otherwise they would have worked at it a little harder. I normally like your stories, but this one I reject. This is pure fantasy not even close to making sense. Maybe your next one, but not this one. Thanks for the effort.

I wasn't but changed my mind about commenting

I read about these people and read and read on, hoping for them to make sense. Tell me or are you Brits really as fucked up as your writing suggest. Let's see...Greg is a drunken wimp that thinks he special in life ( ie Gods Gift to the human race) I think that just about sums it up. And Jill....Really...Well I guess you could say that she's a slut, a ready fuck...you know one of those women that hasn't got a clu what feeling is all about. I think that covers it...Oh and I know that it's not just the Brits...Americans are as fucked up as they are...Oh Well NYMINUS

You Lied! Whoreable Ending!

So happiness is being married to a whore that he otherwise would not have been able to afford? WOW WEE! That is just so romantic I could just sh*t my pants. Obviously the little wimp loves money and the HollyWeirdo's life style as much as she does. And as an added bonus, he can pimp the little gold digger off from time to time when cash runs low. She would have been up front about communicating with Dan, and would never have gone to the Christmas party if her intentions were to preserve their marriage. As with most male bashing women writers, you try to make this situation Gregg's fault for being angry at his conniving wife, when he had every reason to be upset. She planned to hook up with Dan sooner or later and Gregg knew it. Jill left (she wasn't kicked out) and headed straight for Dan's, which is what she wanted to do from the first night that she hadn't gotten to screw him, and now she had an excuse to do so. Of course the real insult comes when Gregg being so insecure and pussy whipped (which is the female writers euphanisem for love) that he would actually take that back and stick his dick into it.

SleeplessinMD2SleeplessinMD2about 14 years ago
Reconciliation Impossible!

I commend the effort you put into this story. The character development was excellent. The ending however went off into fantasyland. Jill's first mistake playing up to Daniel and dumping her husband for the night can be forgiven. She never explained why she played Greg for a fool. What is more a problem is why she never told her boss Daniel about her marriage to Greg. Why the secret e-mails, faxes and phone conversations with Daniel? Why would she expect Greg to sit at home while she entertains Daniel at the company Christmas Party? If she loved Greg so much why didn't she help him when he lost his job, home and himself? Instead she shacked up with Daniel. She then moved on to more wealthy lovers. She went from a corporate manager to a golddigger and whore. Greg is a wimp and fool. How else do you explain a man who whines for his famous slut wife? Even how they got back together it was so Jill can marry her latest lover. Of course ending like Jill and Greg's happen everyday (NOT)? You continue to write well and in general I like your story, just not this one.

Decent Story - Improbable Ending

I like your stories, for the most part. You need to drop all the ------ every other word though.

I don't know about anybody else but you, Jill, Dan, none of you are going to convince me that Jill and Dan did nothing that night, nor at the Christmas party. A woman doesn't turn into an international slut overnight. So Greg was upset, SO WHAT. She left and shacked up with Dan with NO second thoughts. I guess they can say they love each other but God help me, I would hate to be loved like that.

As to the ending, there's no way she'd chase after him like that nor would they become incognito world travelers. That's a bit too much for your readers to swallow.

Star quality? I did look for it but found it only partly...

As always a very well written story, but... YEAH BUT: The first 60 % wonderful and then it starts, slowly first but with increasing power and speed only downhill. And when it ends - only rubbish to put directly into a trash can..... Dear author, I don't understand that somebody like you is capable to destroy his own story in such a disastrous way. I suggest to rethink the last 40% of your story - you already did that in the past - and save this "magnifique" tale. Regards ---- Bavarian!

P.S. It seems to me that you're at a junction: "Comment devenir français sans perdre being British?" That's not easy at all! You can believe me, I know what it's all about.....

Huedogg2Huedogg2about 12 years ago
typical britease BS

WACC to the 25th power and RAAC to the 100th power. This was a cuckold story at the level of a MattM orginal. It just goes to show that real men died a slow painfull death. The idea that a husband would sit there while his wife fucks him over kills me.I agree with marriage vows but no were in your vows does it say be a cuckold door matt for some slut. But most of the writers here make it a requirement. Gave it a 1 star and that was to fucking high.

Happy ending?...

...You call that a happy ending, do you? Greg gets stuck with that bleeding tart, Jill, and you have the nerve to call that a bleeding happy ending. Crikey, I'd call that a fate worse than death. (Sorry about the British slang, too much reading of British authors lately)

what could have been !

The plot and story line seemed to be a good recipe for some good emotional adventure.

I am not sure that the wimp husband was the right tact in this story. Yrs I think Dan being the owner of Jill's company will cause the couple some trouble in the future. Again I can see that wife was truly sorry. Did she try to fine her missing husband !

I think she needed to arrange some pretty females from New life to at least compensate her poor husband have endure that period with out her.

Do You know what logic and plot are?

You know it had no logic and plot ? this was a bit hard to follow and it was shit for character development i mean really all that crap and he takes her back, so while he was rightly pissed he was actually missing her, and then he was confronted by sleaze guy who tells him to forgive her nice feminist fairytale. Also anyone with character would not call this a happy ending (she is still breathing haha).

lance_spearmanlance_spearmanalmost 11 years ago
I liked the begining

After she left and went to Dan the story line became a bit too implausible, IMHO.

The ending reminded me more of the movie Notting Hill than Mrs. Robinson.

johnnyjonesjohnnyjonesover 10 years ago
So...

... Reading through your list from A - Z and I see some patterns in the lack of communication. I don't know a guy alive that wouldn't have corrected her the first time he overheard her state she "wasn't there with her husband." I struggled a little with the fact she seemed to have a run of "star" luck after leaving too. Seemed contrived to me. At any rate, not my story. It's really too bad he didn't get her to ditch the wedding, nail her a couple of times, film it, send pictures to all the usual suspects and then walk away for good. Misery loves company.

PolyLvrPolyLvrover 10 years ago
meh

I understand, guys will look for reasons, even as far as it being their fault, why their women are cheating.

Before their screaming fight, she gave him every reason not to trust her. Really, she hasn't seen Dan. Yet she talks to him and emails him daily and she didn't think hubby should know? So when she tells hubby he blows a gasket.

If she really loved him she wouldn't have run off and not waited out his melt down, which she caused.

I don't have a problem with the ending, just the fact that she took no responoisbility for her actions.

OverthefallsOverthefallsover 10 years ago
A good story until the fairy tale ending.

This seemed to be a combination of the Ugly Duckling meets Cinderella. It was good until you had her make the leap through all the rich and famous men. It seemed a little out of character for her. A "quickie divorce"? How did that work? And after being seduced by all the power, money and fame, I just don't see her leaving some famous, rich man at the alter for her drunken, abusive ex-husband. Overall, I did enjoy it. Keep writing.

Why in so many of your stories, when the wife is just beginning her stupid flirtation, the husband is incapable of coherent thought and speech to put a stop to it?

I agree with johnnyjones' comment. The story patterns are becomming familiar in the main with three basic endings. I'm awaiting the fourth version where the sod goes balmy and kills her, them or self. Oh well, on to the next offering alphabetically.

As usual, I am late to the table.

Risq pretty much nailed it. So I wont bother rehashing it.

Also for Megawhore to achieve that much fame, there is no way in hell he would not have been inundated with media and paparazzi and the likes. After all Megawhore is according to the author, seen everywhere with everyone while STILL Married. Everyone would have a field day with that and with finding him.

The author had the main character as a pathetic wimp loser that would even give a pussy a bad name.

I feel bad for the one commenter that said he wasted 35 minutes on this. What are you a masochist? After page and half (I think it was, I am for sure not going to go back and see) I started skimming and skipping, hoping that this idiot would gain some kind of balls.

I am not going to make fun of the author, nor am I going to make fun of his ability to write. He clearly can. It is just that WHAT he writes is pretty disgusting at times and seems to be a common theme in the stories. I just can't see reading any more of them.

Great story

Britease is one of the great writers on Lit. He kind of reminds me of BobnBobbi or Matt Moreau in that he has style all his own and doesn't just put words on a page. If you read one of his stories you will definitely be able to tell who you are reading. I guess I would describe his stories as "reluctant cuckold with a dry English wit and ditzy wife." It's time for Brit to write another one.

Not a chance!

Jill is a slut! She is a little slow on the uptake, if you know what I mean. Jill left her husband and spent the night and half a day with another man in only her panties and expected him Greg to not think she never had sex with Dan. Jill then spends half the night at a Christmas party with Dan while she did not want Greg there at the party. Greg kicks her out and she runs to Dan, the man she said she never had sex with. Why did Jill not go to a friend's house or her parents home until she could convince Greg she never had sex with Dan at the party? Jill spends a long time running around the world having sex with countless other men then Greg takes her back! Not a chance in hell that would happen.

Silly little story, but..

It seems ridiculous to get upset about a silly little story , but she clearly pushed his buttons , and ignored his feelings, especially with her involvement with her boss. Why the offended wife has to wear something that is special to their relationship, or hang out with another man naked (did I say it was a silly story ?), and ignore her husband's entreaties ? Granted he closed up and ignored her attempts to explain her evening with the boss, but by that time the damage was done. And communication and abstinence would have been better than escaping to bigger and better escapades. He is better off without her.

Silly dtory, so why do I feel he was so wronged ?

Its the subjugation culture, a remnant of Royalty Ruling days. It used to be the King or Queen, then it became whoever claimed authority. Brits are used to prostrating themselves before Class, Power, Money, Authority, and The Greater Good. They are ready to bend their knee at any aspect of external superiority, without any thought of self respect, self reliance, primary instincts, or animal survival. They make real good followers and subjects. Any odd soul who want to be his or her own leader has to emigrate to America. You know, that violent savage uncivilized place where you have to fight for what you want, fight to keep it, and sometimes fight to liberate European allies who don't have the strength or the will to fight. We can handle it.

Your stories are hard to read,frustratingly so because your main characters always let things get out of control.

AnonymousAnonymousover 1 year ago

Sad twisted tale. The wife had issues as she grew into her sexuality. Soemhow the attentions of her husband were not enough. Yes he was a jackass after the Christmas party, but trust had already been broken. She either lied or conveniently forgot while very drunk what happened those 5 hours. We know from thr asshole that broke up their marriage (though not divorced) that they did actually have sex that night as in vaginal penetration. So yeah shebwas steadfast at the Christmas party but they had not resolved their issues. But after the Xmas party, does she fight for her marriage knowing that she was primarily responsible for what happened? Hell no. She doesn't even try to reconnect too hurt she stops communicating to him for several years. But worse? She moves in with asshole because supposedly nowhere else to go. Wtf? She has a job. Rent an apartment. Stay with friends? That whole sequence was surreal and just really made her stand out as a slut. At least file for separation. Seriously she moves in with asshole for a several months and they have great sex? That tesll you alot about how she thought about the asshole that first night and how she thought about Greg. It is a terrible sign. Heck.move out, get an apartment with her good job, and then maybe date who she wants. Most women would NOT reapproach the guy at her job that busted up her marriage. Too much baggage. So yeah suddenly she is a slut, not just a tease. Then as Greg slowly is trying to dig out of the wreckage of her leaving him, he finds out she is playing the field. Still married. No separation. No divorce. No communication. Nothing. Really weird follow up to their argument. Nothing he said was so unforgivable. I get that she might want a separation given their inability to get past her drunken betrayal (which it absolutely was), but just staying married and only broaching the subject when engaged? What she is allergic to lawyers? Yes it was touching she offered to get back with him, making clear of all thr men she dated and fucked, who hernheart still belongs too. But really what does she expect after 2+ years? I admit the aftermath of that night when she fucked the asshole boss and then the Christmas party during which she was innocent, could have been handled infinitely better with counseling a d a short separation. But he shocking up with thr boss that fucked up their marriage is unconscionable and puts her into full slut mode. Doing the worst thing she can do to strike back at her husband and making it virtually to reconcile. What if he hadn't gotten stuck in the bottle and tried to communicate and ask for counseling and finds oh wait I she is fucking Mr asshole and living in sin with him (full adultery) just picking up.from where they started fucking that fateful night when he pressed her hard, misdirected the drunk husband, locked her drunk in a room and fornication with her. Her lack of memory doesn't fully absolve her! And I and sure she remembered at least fragments of what went on, certainly more than what she disclosed. So again neat structure of a story but again author pushes the betrayal top far and then we end up with the final scene from thr Graduate. Could have been so much better. And btw no matter how drunk, or her job at stake, what husband does NOT put a STOP to thr shenanigans that fateful night. Wtf?

As soon as Greg walked up to Dan and his wife he should have made it known they were married, then he should have taken her home and had a serious talk about where the marriage was going.

After weeks of letting their friends feel her up then finding out she was pretending he wasn't her husband where did he / she think that was going to go, pretty obvious she was about to let the "inner slut" off the chain

After living the life she had in the months/years since they split I find it very hard to believe they would settle down to a normal relationship.

Maybe she did miss her little cuckold

He only partly accepted her lame excuse and lie about what she did. In fact she gave herself fully to Daniel. She never came clean. That info was years later from Daniel. Yes after the party, he made a bad mistake and never let her defend herself, kicking her out. For some reason no divorce? Until she was marrying the American actor Brad. Then the Graduate scene. In between she was banging a long line of guys as she built a career. Good for her. What does it have to do with him, except apparently he is pining away? To be honest she was going to pass on Brad (K)itt, so she certainly does still carry a flame for her ex, and she has her own wealth and as we see is willing to give up all her fame to remarry and run away. But while the ending is happy, how does it get from the point where she "slept" (in reality screwed for multiple hours) with Daniel while drunk to this ending through all the mess in between. Hard to see it play out like this in our space-time continuum.

Eh, Greg's a softy. I wouldn't have stood for that nonsense she was putting on at the bar when they first met Daniel. Then the whole Christmas party thing, for sure gone then. There's no way to prove nothing actually happened at the party; only their word against Greg's. However, all the surrounding factors suggest Greg is correct. They had already fooled around, slept together, then she leaves and shacks up with Daniel afterwards? What was that all about, anyway? They had a fight, she left upset, and then they're just separated? He having fallen to an all time low and she climbing the totem pole of wealthy men? Boom, divorce for abandonment. Let's not forget that she's openly cheated on him all those years she was gone. No man with any confidence whatsoever would have allowed things to play out like that i.e let her decide to divorce, show up to her wedding, taken her back. Which brings up the conflicting points of the book. The writer makes him appear as a man with a spine, but then makes him appear as a spineless coward as well. He's either one or the other, OR, he has a mental illness and shouldn't be allowed out of the happy hospital.

I like your stories but this one was a flop.

Good writing but the protagonist can't be that stupid and make so many mistakes, can he?

Boring. Not worth the read.
