Ok

I only normally comment on stories that I really like, and this was one of them. Nicely thought out with a little twist in the presentation which was good.

A bit predictable, but that's not always a bad thing, as one can enjoy the strory going the way you want it to.

Thanks

WOW

what an original idea. a wimp (but very successful) husband and a selfish slut wife. never read anything like it in this site.

Nicely put together story

I really liked it. The second commentator gave a demonstration (intentional) of how to reduce everything to triviality.

Despite what the Anon person said

I agree with Bruce and Britease. Nice story. Yes okay the ex-husband was a little on the wimp side but he came good in the end and the ex-wife got what she deserved to be alone. Well written story.

good story up until the end:

You had high marks from me up until the very end then you lost it with this.

<br></br>

think back about have mean nasty vile and self centered bitch Nora IS. Think about all she did. How read this

<br></br>

<i>...Jeffrey choked back his own tears. <b> "Nora, if only you could have said those words back then.</b> I don't know if we would have stayed together, but even after all you had done, I was looking for something, anything, some shred of hope and decency from you, to try to save us."</i>

<br></br>

so if after all his pleadings Nora ignored after all the public humilation after all the cuckoldiong if ONLY hora at the last second has said SORRY Jeff would of taken her back?

<br></br>

In the immortal words of John McEnroe You cannot be fucking serious

I still can't believe he stayed as long as he did

I'm sure he could have obtained all of the evidence he needed to justify throwing her slut ass out,long before he finally left her. Hell as many men she was with, he probably could have had her charged as a prostitute. Thanks for the story....Rich

Narcissism Personified

I think this story is a well-written portrayal of narcissism, although the women that I've known who are like Nora tended not to be planners and schemers but just cruised through life. I think Jeffrey's behavior was much more credible than the wimps who are portrayed over and over in the LW category of actually seeking this lifestyle.

so?

what was the "story"?

stevieraygovanstevieraygovanover 15 years ago
The part I don't get...

...is how was the slut wife ever going to take the hubby to the cleaners in a divorce when the divorce would've been a direct result of her cheating ways? Judges don't award large settlements to abusive, slut wives, especially when there are no children involved.<p>

I just don't see how or why the husband felt trapped. There was nothing stopping him from divorcing her and winning the lion's share of everything. To cement that result he simply needed to hire a P.I. to get pics of her affairs and that would've been that.<p>

Good story though, despite that one large problem issue. Unusual ending too, with the main person narrating the story taking all the blame and losing everything in the end. Good effort, smegma.

Wonderful!

This was a genuine story. The characters, situations and plot worked wonderfully together to tell this tale. I think this story shows a high level of maturity like many of your others. Thank you again for a fine read.

A tale of many regrets

When I was reading the story, it felt as if it was adopted from a play. It was that intense and dramatic, with so much going on at every second. No question, it was very tight and with the back and forth (time wise) structure, the contrasts between the place the ex is at present and her running amok stages in the past, made for an unusually compelling read. <P>

In response to Harry’s comment, I did not read the husband promising that had the ex declared her love to him he would not have left her; only that that’s what he was looking to hear from her, despite all the abuse he had taken from her. <P>

BTW, Sorry for not commenting on the story when I first read it…

sirsemegasirsemegaabout 15 years agoAuthor
Kolkore:

you read that correctly, that was indeed what Jeffrey was looking for from Nora, some form of acknowledgment of what she had done, taking some responsibility in ruining the marriage. It was by far too late to reconciliation.

5***** story! One of the best! Original and Creative!

"...Take Jeffrey's advise and find someone special."

"I did once," I muttered to myself. "But then I went and ruined it."

It is not a total loss. She got and education. Actually, if she is willing to change, she is still young and pretty so she can find someone.

Truth stranger than fiction...

S,

original thinking again. A very well told tale, sad but true(ly) possible.

Thanks for sharing on Lit. writing is a lot of work, pleasurable I hope, but a lot of work. Thanks again

Good story about "the best revenge is a life well lived".

Nora now understood what she gave up. Well Done.

Excellent

One of those deals that you don't realize what you have until you lose it. Nora blew it and she'll know for the rest of her life.

Jeff was a real man

Some might deride Jeffrey's temperance while still married to Nora. I admire his steadfastness. He'd hoped Nore would see; she didn't till it was way too late

sugnasugnaabout 11 years ago
Excellent

Another great story. Your stories leave the reader with a better understanding of people, relationships and hope. The cheating wife becomes a three dimensional person as opposed to the more common nightmare harlots of other stories. The sadness of the cheaters role is made clear in your stories. I know a few cheaters, they have all lost their self respect, their honor and the trust of most of those around them - including their own family. That kind of self destructive behavior pushes people away. Sad.

You have a way of making all your characters seem real, and driving home important lessons of life.

Great job. I'll look forward to seeing more of your work.

Thanks.

Simply a jewel

why is this story so underrated ???

AnonymousAnonymousabout 10 years ago
Damn....

Well written, well thought out, and delivered in an excellent fashion. I've perused (can't say read since I tend to fast forward) many stories of the nutless wonder/faithless whore variety, usually appreciated by those who seem unable to understand that sex plus love beats hell out of sex alone. I congratulate the author on a damned fine read, and agree with other commenters, that the rating should be far higher.

AnonymousAnonymousalmost 10 years ago

With how hard it is to find someone...

...worth risking financial ruin to spend your life with, why would anyone throw that away so flippantly as Nora did?

Have to agree

He was a wimp, his limit was not eating creampies.

Thoughts

“but there are far fitter men out there which you just can't compete with." – Then divorce him and marry one of them!

While it personally disgusts me, I guess if a guy gets turned on by being a cuckold there’s nothing inherently wrong with it, but when a man is dragged into it kicking and screaming, that is flat out WRONG!

“What happened to ‘till death do us part’"? – As I’m sure others have said, what happened to “forsaking all others”?

“At first Ashley seemed jealous of me,” – Maybe I missed it, but when did Ashley seem jealous of her? Maybe she's referring to when Ashley bristled at Nora called him "our" Jeffrey, but that wasn't really jealousy.

betrayedbylovebetrayedbylovealmost 8 years ago
Damn

Nora: Typical entitled cheating cunt who thought she was all that and that men should just fall at her feet. Tried to make a wimp out of her husband. Now she's alone and should jump off a bridge. Fucking slag twat.

xiluaxiluaover 7 years ago
stupid

A wimp and a whore; nice combo. Completly unrealistic divorce threat s from the slut.

AnonymousAnonymousover 7 years ago

I agree with the others.

At most she gets half. A relatively small price to pay to grow balls and learn from your mistake and be rid of a parasitic sociopath.

He was and still is an absolute pussy. It is no wonder the cunt had no respect for him.

Big deal, his "limit" was not eating cream pie. He put up with EVERYthing else like a whimpering puppy.

Very nice indeed.

Captured the 1st person feminine conversation very good. Very well done. A day at the races background for the story also well done

Overall deserves a higher rating. *****

Another good story. I've read them all now.

etchiboyetchiboyabout 5 years ago
Very good story.

It didn’t “grab me”, for whatever reason, so I’m giving it 4-stars. Nonetheless, a very good story.

Interesting she wasn’t slutting around for the sex, but to attempt “control” Jeff. That’s certainly a different take on thongs from the usual LW story.

AnonymousAnonymousalmost 5 years ago
Nothing like a whore and her minions

I've got only one question, why would Jeffrey do anything for Nora? I mean let's look at their history, she basically destroyed her marriage. Where is that person yelling about the human condition on this one? Do you honestly believe he would do anything for Nora? Who is he, pope John Francis. Nope he's in everyday guy, but even put John Francis probably want to get some fucking revenge. All of you, he's the Better Man writers need to cut the shit out, most of shitheads need to change from loving wives and move sci-fi.

AnonymousAnonymousover 4 years ago

Wow, you wrote him as a stupid, spineless pussy.....damn. I hated him as much as I did her. If you were trying to paint him as a sympathetic character, you failed.

26thNC26thNCover 4 years ago
Disagree

I disagree, in principle, when the then sbrooks103 about choosing willingly off not. I think it is the lowest, except pedphilia, perversion engaged in by subhumans. I don't consider Jeff a cuck. He rejected it very firmly. Another good story.

jtwheelsjtwheelsabout 4 years ago
Second reading agree with others comments.

Spineless wimpy cuckold.

Lower rating to negative numbers.

So she takes everything which she couldn't

You would still have self respect most important thing.

Sad, sad story. Ashley was the only decent character. Nora was as sick as can be. He was just sad. Thank you

Too Painful for Words

Why telescope the ending like this?

We all knew how this would go from the very beginning.

A novel approach, but not really entertaining since we knew the punchline.

MormonJackMormonJackalmost 4 years ago
Wow... poignant, powerful. 5 stars

For me, someone that give his all for the person he love, even when that woman was the one hurting him, is a real test of love. I'm not with the others below that thing he was a pussy, but rather one genuinely in love and motivated by that love to try to save his marriage for as long as he could.

Thanks for writing!

Sorry this sr story is BS. Could not suspend my imagination enough to buy this crap.

People like Nora never change.

amygdalaamygdalaalmost 3 years ago

Nora is like the scorpion and the frog. Selfishness and backstabbing are hardwired into her genes.

secretsalsecretsalalmost 3 years ago

Jeffrey's advice to 'find someone who treats you right, maybe you can find some love within you to treat them right as well' is fair, but not in the right order. Nora is damaged goods, she needs to fix her relationship with herself before she'll ever know what to do with someone who treats her right.

AnonymousAnonymousalmost 3 years ago

A bitch even before they married. Served Jeffery right for being such a stupid doormat. Love ?? Come on! Had he never heard of a Pre-nup?? Disgusting. 2*s.

AnonymousAnonymousover 1 year ago

This just doesn't seem possible in our space time continuum. Just get a divorce. Wtf? Screw the business. Split it / sell it, move and start over. Only a severely deranged woman would have some master cuckolding plan. BS.

xhristianjxhristianjover 1 year ago

Let's be honest 🤔🤔🤔 is there a minus 5 stars this is just Cuckfantasy 101

AnonymousAnonymousover 1 year ago

There is no reason to out up with her abuse. And it is emotional abuse. There are no kids. Fine split the business or use the time to make legal arrangements for its ownership. But don't sit there and take it for months on end. Heck sell your business and divorce her or run away. She has serious mental problems. Not even a regular narcissist would push it out in the open like that making sick demands. Despite the cuck theme, and his unwillingness to protect himself, it is well written.
