5* A neat little vignette with characters who feel real (given it's only 1.6k words). She reaped what she sowed, as you said. Thank you for posting it.
Unintentional funny.
'This stranger was bawling his eyes out and MC sat next to him'.
C'mon, if you're a woman never write your male character doing the sympathetic sit down. That is women thing.
Just like handing tissue to blow their nose or whatever. Those things will hurt a man's pride, especially after the man just figured out his wife is cheating. Even more when the guy that she's cheating with is the one comforting him.
Don't pile on the pitiful man. Leave him some pride.
Husband cannot kick wife out of their domicile, period. I don't think the law is different in Britain than it is in the US. A spouse has the legal right to live in the marital residence, no matter whose name is on the deed or lease, and neither can evict the other without going through proper procedures or agreement. Authors who base stories on principle that husband kicks wife out of the house merely demonstrate their ignorance and that they write out of their ass.
Yes.
Fiction or not,
some people are just that worthless as partners.
I know.
I liked this story.
The plot isn't deep enough to earn top ratings,
but 4 out of 5 from me.
wow.
so many potential good stories today but they're short and their ending is rushed.
well at least it is not a cuck story.
Not a bad rendition of another common trope. Dawn was a real piece…..of work. Good that Harry had at least some morals.

More of a vignette, not a fully developed story. I think all of the details are there, it only needs to be fattened up a little. You are at a 4.05. A 4 would drop the average and I can't give a 4.05 or even a 4.1. So, 5★ it is!
It reads like Jack got what he married, so he deserved what he got. I don't understand how an intelligent perceptive discerning person ends up with a whore or an asshole for a spouse. There's just too many tells for these selfish unethical self absorbed assholes, male and female. Marry in haste, suffer slowly and for far too long. Ouch. There's A Lot of really good men and women out there looking for love and commitment. But ya gotta do some work to find and prove them. Maybe my 47 years is just luck. What do you think?
