A good story, well written, and a GREAT sense of humor! Thank you very much for this.
Way to go! For your first work you sure did make one hell of an impact on the site. 205 comments and counting. Hell I’m lucky if I get 4 or 5. I look forward to hearing more from you,
As soon as she refused to share her deleted texts, they were done. I don't understand why it continued beyond that. The rest were lies, stupid justifications and other BS to hide the emotional affair, which led to a physical one.
Very Well done.. I would like to know if he went after the boss and the company and how sad the rest of her life is as a liar and a cheat.
5 stars, well written. Looking forward to more.
.
BTW, I have to agree with your comment earlier on, your story seems to have inflamed the crazies in LW. You'd think the cuckolds would have enough stories to keep them quiet, but they're probably angry because there's no pictures.
.
Keep writing, you're good at it. Thanks for posting.
One word for this story. Pathetic. You do know this is a sex story site right? I have no idea why stories like this are even allowed here. No sex, what is the point. Just so you can paint up a manly man? A man that can not be fooled? A man that is always right and two steps ahead of everyone else? A man that puts his woman in her place? Stories like this don't belong here. I am an 80's kid. I read 100's of stories on Penthouse and like minded magazines. Not one of them had stories like this. Too many weak little men here that want to be the big tough man. They love these stories and give them 5 stars and rave on and on in the comments. So sad that this once great site to read erotic stories is now almost dead. At least the Loving wives category. The other categories still have sex in the stories. One star
Simply outstanding short one...keep on writing...you remind me of Hemmingway's "Hills like White Elephants" in which he writes the story...strips it down to bare bones...then discards as many bones as possible and then publishes it. What is left is a 3-4 page concise tale absolutely packed with symbolism and multiple levels of meaning... Your first effort is simply a joy to read... Look forward to seeing many more efforts in the near future!!!
5 stars
Great, I recently discovered one of your stories and immediately read all the others, all very good reads that I enjoyed. Not quite BTB, but all have varying levels of payback where the cheating wives get their just deserves and realize too late their exes were their best life before they blew it up.
Enjoyed the story, could use a follow up, I'd love to read what happened to them. I know divorce is a given, ( I wouldn't read it if it was a raac, she doesn't deserve it) but he seems like a solid stand up guy, and would love to read how he picks up afterwards.
Doesn't need to be revenge on the supervisor, the dude is just done, but I would like to see the fallout of the marriage counselor and how things fall out in divorce court. See if she was named in their divorce, maybe even having her ex-husband to the stand or something, thus to show why she is unfit to be a counselor. And to the Anonymous whining about no sex, so far, from what I have seen a good majority have no interest in seeing a cheating spouse get away with things. If you don't like non cuck stories, that's not our problem.
Very nice. I doubt the marriage counselor is going to get a good Yelp review. "She's pretty stupid, would not recommend."
Probably not needed but there would be great deal of satisfaction derived from hearing about Jack filing suit against the doctor for malpractice, informing the bosses wife about everything and perhaps bringing a baseball bat to a late night meeting with him.
Grewt story!!
The anon dude who commented 2 months ago that he grew up jacking it to penthouse stories and he doesn't like the LW stories here that have little sex?
Go fuck yourself dumbass. There are literally a hundred thousand sex stories on this website. Go jack your dick to those. Leave the LW stories the hell alone. Check it out yourself. There is a reason that there are a ton of LW stories in the top 500 most read stories on this site. Most have little sex in them. Because they are some of rhe best quality written stories here.
Don't like LW stories? Just don't click into the category, penthouse boy.
I liked your story and thought it flowed well. The flow of the story has always been important to me. Thank you for sharing your story.
"Karen could very easily see him being a controlling asshole." - He hasn't said a word yet, and she's already forming a prejudice against him.
\
"My marriage is not relevant to your marriage." - It is if it speaks to a bias she might have.
\
"he gets me!" - Says every cheater, ever, with the parallel, "My husband doesn't understand me."
\
"If you don't trust her, you don't have a marriage." - Fine, so end the marriage.
@Anonymous Re: The opening - What was aimed at me? I'm not thin-skinned and don't delete comments. I believe that my criticisms were constructive.

As for the kids and the house, a lot depends on the situation at her parents' house.
Hell man your surrounded by sluts. Your wife's a whore and you lucked up and got a counselor that's a big a whore as she is......... Run don't walk
OK, good end. This writer is talented. If you haven't already, read his story, "The Teachers Husband". Read it, it's a great story. This story, a 4. The Teachers Husband is a 5+ story. Please add to your 9 stories. Thanks,
Divorcing in Cali.
You gotta love LW critics. There's too much sex, there's not enough sex, it should have had a reconciliation.. it should have ended with a BtB... and sadly I'm one of them but this is a well crafted story if predictable. 4 from me
damn if thats just knocking off the rust wtf you gonna do when you are all polished up
He was too weak in the 1st counseling session, because he knew it was coming, and at the end she deserved to be burned, along with the boss.
I'd love to see a follow up vignette with the counselor completely realizing that she has utterly failed: as a wife, as a counselor, and as a human being.
Very nice story, thanks for sharing. It’s been my experience that finding a competent therapist can sometimes be difficult at best and I believe this story exemplifies that. Thanks again, offkilter, for a top-notch story. 5 stars.
Oooh, the marriage counselor didn't turn the wife 180 degrees around in a couple of sessions? She must be utterly incompetent, it's because she cheated herself, burn her at the stake!!!!!!!
.
Hint to those gathering tar and feathers for the counselor: despite what you might believe, counseling doesn't consist of them waving a magic wand and POOF! everything fixed in a single meeting. WTF did Jack expect the counselor to do at the single session he missed to stop Traci from cheating? POOF? As he himself said, you can't make rules for adults. There's absolutely no evidence to support the counselor even knowing about the cheating, much less condoning it; she's surprised by the photo when Jack shows it.
.
The counselor might be incompetent, might be great but we the reader have no way of knowing . . . and neither does Jack, nor the hoards of indignant commenters. The author might know, but despite Jack's whinnying, didn't do a good job of showing it.
This is my second read. I loved it the first time, and my position hasn't changed.
so... what was the point of him telling her how it would be ?? unless he knew she was going to cheat on him ?? apparently she had no problem throwing her marriage away for a little strange . a lot left unclear,but ... life goes on .
5 stars.. great story and Jack was right there is no need to say the consequences Traci shouldnt worry about them if she stays faithful. Traci cheated Karen cheated and now both those women got divorced, lifes too short to stay with a cheating scumbag.
The ending line sums up the character of the slut wife perfectly. She’s sorry that she got caught. She’s a child in an adult body. She should never gotten married to begin with. Unfortunately, due to feminism, and other social degeneration over the past 60 years, young women are now significantly less mature than men if the same age.
The rising generation of young men should avoid women and marriages like the plague, unless they are members of a very strict religion. Orthodox Jews, Fundamentalist Muslims, some Evangelical Christians, and Temple worthy Saints raise women who are worth the risk.
ZK
I was going to make SEVERAL comments on how the counselor was acting inappropriately while counseling the couple. However, the end explains it all. Well written.
Well written story. The story line was superb. It is a shame the main character traded his marriage for a gotcha.
One of my favorite sayings in life: "Fuck Around and Find Out". Jack warned her - did he not? He told Traci that there would be consequences. She just chose not to believe him. Or, she figured that forgiveness would be obtainable from Jack. Just reading the words of Jack as written, told me he was a logical, no nonsense guy. But Traci was completely infatuated with her affair partner and her brain was clouded by lust. Traci was able to rationalize everything in her own mind - regardless of the reality of the world around her. She came up with logical reasons to justify her behavior well before the actual sex took place. Jack could have literally been yelling at Traci through a megaphone and she would have never heard his words. Score 5/5 BRB
Excellent story... How about an epilogue:
It took Karen almost an hour to get Traci under control emotionally. She walked her to her car in the lower level parking garage. As they approached Traci's car a white van pulled alongside them slowing to a crawl but not stopping. The door flew open and both women were tossed into the back. By the time the van exited the garage the women were bound and gagged and the three men in the back were already pawing them all over. The meanest looking one smirked and said. "Putas, let me read you a note from Jack. "Dear cheating skank sluts. I'm chuckling thinking the two of you believe you're going to just get on with your lives. I'm sure Traci is already thinking of ways to fuck me over in the divorce so I have a confession. I didn't tell you everything included in the FAFO. This is the other half. Traci, I sold you to a Mexican cartel that owns several whore houses in Tijuana. By this time tomorrow you'll be working for them. I'm told you'll have between 8-12 clients a day. Hopefully that will help satisfy your whore mouth, pussy and ass. I got a pretty good price. 10K for you. They assure me they will make ten times that amount before you are used up. Karen, I thought of a 'buy one, get one free' deal but once I talked to your betrayed ex-husband, he was very immenable to an extra 5K for his pain and suffering. Sorry, but when I showed your new friends your picture, they were less certain you could make as much money for them. However, they promised to do their very best to make the most of their investment. In a few minutes you will be joined by Traci's piece of shit boss. Apparently man on man whores are in big demand these days too. I only got 1K for his sorry ass, oh well. So, that's a wrap for me cunt wife and equally pathetic Karen the joke of a marriage counselor. So fuck off and enjoy what little life you have left. So long bitches." When he finished he unzipped his pants and both women were starring at the biggest cock they'd ever seen. "Time for practice Puta's."
Maybe this epilogue... Traci ran to her boss in the hopes he'd divorce his wife and marry her once her divorce from Jack as done. He met her at their favorite bar. "How is your little cuckie doing? Are you still snowing him in marriage counseling?" "No. Jack found out we've been shacking up and he's divorcing me. But the good news is baby, we can be together as soon as you divorce your wife." "Have you lost your mind Traci? I would never leave my wife to marry a cheater. You lie to your husband constantly just so we can fuck. Why on earth would I ever trust you? I enjoy you as my submissive fuck toy, but marriage? You must be crazy." Traci burst into tears. "I thought you loved me you bastard. You tell me you love me all the time. What have I done?" "Well" her boss replied, "You're a great fuck Traci, but you're dumb as a rock. Of course I tell you what you want to hear because you have a sweet pussy and you give it out freely. You're a slut woman, not marriage material. Quite frankly, if I was your husband, I do a hell of a lot more than divorce you. Sorry babe, but this fling has run its course. Lose my number, don't call me. Start looking for a new job. As of tomorrow you're fired." He left the idiot whore sobbing at the table. Two weeks later, Traci's former boss was gunned down in front of his office. Traci was arrested an hour later and was eventually sentenced to 25 years to life in prison. She'd been there less than two days when a large mean-spirited black woman named Chandra made Traci her skank slut bitch. Jack laughed and laughed as he watched this shit show unfold. An anonymous source alerted a local TV station to the connection between counselor Karen and now infamous Traci. She lost her practice and moved away.
I highly recommend this 'first' story by a new author.
The Hoary Cleric
For a 'first published' story it was excellent.
I liked the fact that there were no surprises. The author defined the characters so well it was clear what each was thinking, and the characters stayed true to form.
For a short story the plot had the proper level of complications. The editing seemed well done. The story was entertaining. I am a fussy reader. All things considered, I gave the story a 5. That is not suggesting it is Hall of Fame quality, just an excellent first attempt.
I liked it because the husband was true to his word: he said there would be consequences and there were consequences. I have recently read a story in which the husband boasted about not putting up with cheating and that "one and done". But was he true like the husband in this story? Certainly not. He put up with a big cheating, disrespect and betrayal from his wife. It was a version of February Sucks, so, if you know that story you know what cheating, betrayal and disrespect I'm talking about.
But it was worse than that, he had arrived that night having accepted the cheating from his wife during several GNOs. So "One and Done". Ha! I felt that the author of that story was trying to pull the reader's leg. A really horrible story.
I thank this author for a great and coherent story. 5* from me.
Why would a whore, be a marriage Counselor? I mean how could a whore ever heal a marriage?
Not bad, but there is too much content missing. And of course the ending just--died. Still, four stars.
JPB NOT BOB
Your story reads well - you are a good writer. However, this is another of these stories with the wise super competent husband and the wife as a hopeless person, totally transparent with no redeeming characteristics. The difference is you exaggerated all the people, including the therapist, into two dimensional non-people. You broke the first obligation of a writer - to create real people.
The slam on the marriage counselor made this story a five star winner on its own even though the story was awesome as well.
For every good therapist, there are ten charlatans. Yes I made those numbers up....ten seems low. Great story, loved it,.
Is there ever a story with a Traci that isn't a cheating slut? I've yet to find one. Less than an hour after counseling she was already at the motel with the guy? Yikes.
This puts me in mind of high school counselors. You know, those people who do their best in urging you to do the things they’ve never done.
The story earned 5 stars for the relatively dry humor of the husband. The arc of the story was obvious, but still entertaining.
As an aside... I'm curious why most of the loving wives stories where infidelity is involved that it's almost always the wife doing the cheating. I don't know, but would guess the reality is somewhere near 50 - 50 in the being unfaithful in husband vs wife. Could it be that the majority of readers here are men and we would prefer to see women being unfaithful more than men? Any thoughts?
One of the great llines in the LW literature, "... I think that marriage counseling is not the best fit for you".
A 5 star story.
A good story, for sure. 4 Stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐ ! There were a few, minor grammar/punctuation items noted, but nothing of importance. Characters were clearly defined as well as their personalities. I enjoyed the story and your style of writing.
More please!!! I really want more of the the counselors perspective, to read about how she failed a marriage in her private life and now in her work life! how she failed herself and her client! and the realizations that go along with that.
Delusion versus hypocrisy. Like government trying to control peoples behavior. Your mental cobwebs are far beyond my ruminations. Kudos for thoughtful *.
Re: Imshaken’s comment
I believe that the category is loving wives and therefore it is about unfaithful wives/partners just by definition. Depending on the author or story, sometimes it’s actually welcomed as erotic and for others as the basis of either an emotional trip for revenge, reconciliation, or somewhere in between with high stakes emotionality.
-
I suspect you’re right about the cheating. I believe that cheating is more prevalent in men than women, but most of these are self-reporting studies and there are issues with that. But I suspect that the gap will close, though I think the cheating is for different reasons.
-
If I’m to speculate, I’d say that LW has the highest male readership proportion of all categories, but romance is probably more female driven. I do believe that both categories appeal to the readership as a whole.
Romance seems to focus of what I am guessing may appeal to women in general (redemption, abandonment, tenderness/care, empathy, emotional/physical safety). As a male, I feel as though I’m being too broad and am happy to be corrected. In contrast, LW often engages with tropes of common male anxieties (paternity, partner sexual gratification, economic standing [wife leaves for rich guy/boss], victimization).
