Gift

Re: great idea, bad format (Anonymous comment)

""It absolutely cries out for a longer format".

No it doesn't.

Doesn't make sense, even if try to force sarcasm, it doesn't make sense.

Something Is Missing**

Like the story.

Missing something

I have a problem, why did she commit suicide? What happened during the 2 years which caused her to do it? She doesn't regret what happened other than the hurt she caused, which is not a good reason for the suicide. What else happened?

This was no oops!

The nice wife had an affair, got caught, shit hit the fan. Sooo she runs away by flying 550 feet off a bridge. Some people refuse to play the marriage game and can't face reality. If her life was so bad why did she get married in the first place? In any organized religion taking your own life will send one's soul to the Pits of Hell, no ifs, ands, or butts. So much for dying for your husband. This was no oops, she fucked up and now there is no second chance.

Oh no!

This is one sick puppy. Two years later she's still obsessing about what she did to her husband. She might have called him up and asked to talk. He might have saved her life. Oh well...

Pandering

I'm at odds with myself on this story in that it's well written and reads well but is disturbing.

Deep depression=suicide danger

It is difficult to understand the about 80-90% of the suicide people have seriouse depression. A family catastrophe (It is independent from the responsible person is his/herself or others) changes an average depression people into deep depression and without medicine (now it has found the Li (carbonate) is the best QUICK suicide prevention medicine until the modern transmitter level increasing antidepressants effect........) the deep depression is deadly illness = suicide.

good one

this one is deep in meaning and I am not talking about the drop into the river... do some thinking on this one folks

Anon, to the person falling it is like hitting a brick wall on a bicycle

at 124 mph (200 km/h). Not too many are going to survive that impact. The instantaneous Velocity at the 550 ft point is about 128 mph. But since Terminal Velocity rules come into play due to gravitational changes and air resistance the woman's speed on impact would have been limited to between 124 mph and 126 mph depending on where she was located and her height above sea level.

Although there are at least one Brit and one American bknown to have survived +18,000 ft drops without parachutes over Nazi Germany in WW2. Both were documented and confirmed at the time by the German Luftwaffe.

Agree with one other comment - Maybe she survived - and then

Interesting story, odd ending . . . and now another odd ending especially for those who hated the suicide . . . perhaps she survives, and is found miles downstream pretty messed up, no memory of what happened or who she is. She's now a 'Jane Doe' in a hospital for treatment and then in recuperative therapy for a prolonged period. She does not regain her memory.
Sadly, her family never finds her, but finds a trail and evidence of possible suicide by jumping off the bridge. No body is ever found and after a while, she is assumed dead. Ex-husband and his sister both feel guilt . . . though they shouldn't, but they do. Both live alone for some time . . . the ex-husband often wishing he'd tried harder . . . often desperately missing the woman he once felt he could never forgive.
Meanwhile, she gets a new identity, marries one of the doctors who treated her, finds simple but rewarding work she enjoys, and has a happy life. She has many opportunities to have sex outside of marriage (and her husband is actually very understanding and would not be horribly devastated if something brief were to happen). But for some reason, anytime she finds herself attracted to someone other than her husband, she has sudden feelings of revulsion, nausea, and oddly enough, vertigo. As a result of this reaction, any attraction she feels outside of marriage quickly passes. This new 'Gift' it would seem was for her new husband as much as for her (though neither may ever know it).

that because your a willing cuckold, carvohi

in your world a slut/hot wife is some one to be idolized. when you should set her free to infest the world with STD's.

How could this be longer?

The story is told. The character fully formed and established. With this ending it doesn't slip into the mediocrity of wife cheats, has remorse, can't get over feelings, and reconciles or divorces and life goes on. There are hundreds of stories like that.

This is a statement about the devastation of letting your gonads rule. Thank you

The American survivor

@ LostOneThere The American survivor was a flying fortress machin gun man who jumped from the burning plane without parashut. He did not want to burn, instead of fire he choose the "deep" impact. He fell into a pine tree forrest and the branch of the pine tree decreased his speed and he arrived in deep snow. His body was over with broken branches but he survived.......the German doctors treated him well, he was a miracle.

An ignominious end to a sad and useless life.....

....she'd have been far better off to never marry, just hook up with every man/woman/zebra she can find and live solely and exclusively for her orgasms.
Then she will have constant passion forever.
Nothing else matters anyway, right? We can all take a lesson from this story...
Never marry, always hook up and get your orgasm, be passionate or die.
Ph-f-f-f-f-f-t-t-t-T!......

Great insight

But find it odd that she would make these great revelations about herself, then totally waiste the knowledge that could have lead to a great life to kill herself. Usually great self revelation leads to improvement, not death...

Really?

After so much soul searching she decides to jump off a bridge? Good thing not all cheating whore wives arrive at the same conclusion. Otherwise the rivers and canals would be clogged up with drowned whores yearound. There are no barriers set up by man to keep a horny wife in line. The Arabs stone them to death and still they continue to fuck out of wedlock. The Americans shower them with all types of modern conveniences and malls to waste their money on. They usually wind up buying sexy underwear for their lover's delight and hiding it from their husbands. In the event they're caught and divorced, they hit the marriage lottery jackpot and are rewarded with half of the assets in the marriage. The system is broken because there are no real consequences for their actions. And even if there were dire consequences, like stoning, it still wouldn't stop them. The heat in their twats short circuits all rhyme and reason. Much to the dismay of the cuckold husbands and to the glee of future lovers.

How long for 550 feet?

You have about 8.4 seconds to cover 550 feet. When you hit the water, the first thing that happens is you get wet. How long do you stay wet? Depends - on how long it takes for someone to find you. B T B !!!

our true purpose

live selflessly, & die willingly. nothing else makes a diff.
dont feel sad she ended her life, rejoice that she revealed the true truth of her life & embraced death the way we ought to.........A GIFT.

Soul searching works

She finally got it right, and made the correct choice! Good for her!

Too many people live in fairytale land, instead of reality. They think the universe revolves around them, that the universe owes them something, for merely being born! Too many people expect a relationship to be that Hallmark myth of 'Happily ever after', with no effort required, and when it doesn't happen, (because it's a myth), they give up, and look elsewhere, anywhere, except where they should be looking; at themselves!

What crap!

It's adultery. Don't do it.

Thoughts

“I honestly believed that I was a bad person for no longer feeling attracted to my ex-husband.” – Well, if you CHEATED, instead of TALKING to your ex about the problems you found in your marriage, you WERE a bad person!

“I wanted my ex-husband to long for me, want me and care enough about me to woo me.” – Many of the “Loving Wives” want their husbands to “woo” THEM, but it never occurs to them to try to SEDUCE their husbands, though, does it?

Do it!

Every adulterer should kill themselves. It's for the best.

Yuo fiest dear annony, First you kill yourself and we all promise

all of us adulteress and want to be ones we;'ll all kill ourselves next! So go ahead annony you asshole

Adultery...

The gift that keeps on giving...
Happiness is .... A warm gun...

2 stars.

I don't approve of her conclusion.

She didn't regret becoming a whore but still killed herself?

Pretty dark and not in a satisfying way.

I wish she would have killed the bitch she let herself become and changed into a better person.

OOoooooffffffffffff

Powerful compelling story, well written.
