Long after she was asleep, he quietly listed the Matt Rife tickets he bought her on Stub Hub. The show was on February 29th and he bought them for her as a Valentine's Day gift. He would have to find something else to give her.
After all, it was stupid to tempt fate during a month as shitty as February, especially in a leap year.

Anonymous5 days agoThe husband didn’t stop his wife from cheating, the date and kiss she had with the other guy was cheating. And the ease in which she lied about it shows that she’d probably do it again if she thought she could get away with it. Dude is probably going to have to be her prison gaurd for the rest of their lives…not really worth it.
michael6363about 1 month agoI loved your story.
So true:
"If the stories all bleed together, why did you go to the trouble of reading them all?" he asked.
"They pissed me off," she admitted. "I found that the more they pissed me off, the more I wanted to read the next one to see if it pissed me off too."
desecrationabout 1 month agoIn view, the point of LW is that the backstory and personalities do not matter; the cheating spouse has become a narcissist who has no real character except "me first." The real world examples available suggest that humans sometimes turn off their inner character and become zombies hell-bent on desire instead.
TrainerOfBimbos2 months agoThis was very clever and very meta. It is also an entirely complete "loving wives" story that does a fair critique of George Anderson's shit-tacular brain poison, "February Sucks".

I concur with the author - I think most of the rewrites are entirely because of how outrageous the story is. Linda is a soulless robot who beeps platitudes without any empathy for Jim. Jim is cornered by the plot and narrative, destined to only have indignity after indignity heaped upon him. The eventual resolution by deus-ex-LW focuses only on "correcting" Jim's perception of Linda's betrayal and then like a shitty magician, George Anderson reveals the trick at the end, further emasculating Jim.

Also, I agree - a dramatic close call and some character growth is often more exciting than a revenge or "second chance romance" plot. We don't get enough stories like these, for some reason. I think it's because they invoke the ire of the "BTB" crowd because they have this idea that temptation means the end of a relationship (and sometimes things like outright rape, they consider cheating). I'm happy you took your own advice and wove this into your story... still, it's unsettling isn't it? It feels like a book that's still open, which is why people probably love those BTB stories - they're more definitive in ending.
oldtwit2 months agoNice try, but it seems to be a totally different plot line, it really doesn't fit with George's story at all, it looks to me as if you have used the story's total just to get people who like the original to read something from you. Which I find hard to believe
oldtwit2 months agoNice try, lots of comparisons of how others have taken a punt at giving that great story any other endings not sure that it's really a good story to run with George's, it really seems to be in a completely different plot line
kirei82 months agoOnly one thing missing. After telling her he knew about her date and the kiss, he served her with divorce papers. After breaking her superior attitude, he would tell her to keep the papers where she would constantly see them as a reminder she was not as smart as she thinks she is. And only his loving nature was giving her this first and last chance because she really did not want to see his response should it ever happen again. The trust he had in her is gone forever!
