Excellent!
Five stars.
Reminds me of this classic:
https://www.literotica.com/s/a-gathering-of-trolls
you seemed to have learned to use the tag correctly,
so why are you whining that other authors haven't learned yet?
Wow! If ever a MC needed bitch slapping then Chuck is the one. Talk about being the architect of his own downfall!

10 Big Blazing Stars for Great Writing about the horrors of dating and the single life. Thanks, Buster2U
Wow, 19 words in we find out there is no wife and this is just another troll...
I googled “average penis size”. One study said the average size of an erect penis is 5.1”
Insecure partners are the bane of a poor relationship. Does Joe reciprocate?
Good character development, Simple and to the point.... Especially Chuck's character as he seems like an old man in his head,
While your story was well written and fun it also took too big a stab at the readers in general. Viscous diatribes masked in contrived thoughts and conversations are not constructive and may alienate your readers and fans somewhat. Hopefully that’s not the case and your readers have a thicker skin than you. Have you been personally offended by some of the readers comments or something? This felt like an emotional attack on some of your readers less than flattering comments, at least on some level. Putting yourself out there openly, I’m sure, is hard to do and I admire your courage, however given the vast diversity in personalities and moods offhand comments are bound to happen. You are posting on an erotic literature site and the LW category is by far the toughest genre. Try and consider a large percentage of your readers have had failed relationships due to any number of reasons, infidelity included. People tend to feel chided and betrayed and all sorts of negative emotions as a result of relationship failures and those feelings are generally intensified and many other negative emotions arise after act(s) of infidelity. A lot of these readers are simply letting off steam and their negative comments could actually be healing for them. Please don’t take things personally or alienate anyone, after all they felt strong feelings enough, one way or the other, to be compelled to comment. Keep up the good works and thank you for your time and effort.
Thanks, Anonymous for your constructive feedback. You give us all a great example of how to give some criticism while still not being rude. To me, the greatest puzzle here is why people read these stories if they do not enjoy them. I just thought it would be funny to create a fictional character and try to imagine what is going on in his head when he reads stories that he hates. You are correct that many people have been hurt in love and my intention is not to make fun of them. My advice to all readers is that they should read the tags carefully and only read stories that they like. You know, stories that do not jeopardize their mental well-being as the stories did for Chuck. Consider horror movies or BDSM porn etc. They certainly are not suitable for all or not even for the majority of people. Neither are some of my stories.
There was another comment about the average size of men in general. This was one of my points in the story. The problems resided solely in Chuck's head. I did not underscore it too much because I wanted to leave some of these conclusions to be made by the reader.
