Do you think it could be early stage Alzheimers?

The thing is with income inequality, it’s almost criminal not to make sure your kids have every advantage possible. Years ago, Johnny C-student could still live in a modest house with a decent standard of living. Now, Johnny C-student might be able to rent an apartment on the edges of the good-side of town. In 20…

Good theory. Just no one needs to test it out with tongues of other species, OK?

Tedious! Exactly the word. There’s nothing for me to do, see, touch but the back of his head. Not getting much excitement from that.

Seriously underrated.

Really, I can’t help you. You know everything.

I believe I said you can choose to learn from others or persist in believing you know it all. If you can’t figure out which path to take, I can’t help you.

You are arguing in circles now. There is nothing to add. You can choose to learn from others’ experience or you can persist in believing you know it all. One path leads to a rewarding life. Peace.

No one’s living their lives to impress you, honey.

I think it’s the same thing when people fat-shame or slut-shame. It’s just about thinking they’re better than someone else. But it is really true, until you’ve walked a mile in someone else’s moccasins, you don’t know shit.

No. There are a lot of bad choices people make that hurt other people. Drug addicts and alcoholics, for instance. It doesn’t mean they intend it. And it doesn’t mean they can never recover. I never said anyone has to or should stick it out with a cheater. But for those who want to, you can learn from this couple.

OK. You are not even making sense anymore. Peace.

I get it. A lot of people on this thread have been hurt by cheaters. That’s why they can’t listen to this woman’s story with compassion and understanding. But if you can, she (and her husband!) have said some very important things for people who want to save their relationships in spite of it all. And that is what…

But you don’t get to choose what your partner does. That’s the hard part. I think if you can find your way back together after such a breach of trust, more power to you.

You get to choose what decimates you and what does not. Don’t forget that.

You just need to live a little bit more life. And you’ll see how you can make choices that hurt other people even if that is not your intention. And when you do, you will know the quality of people in your life. If the people in your life give up on you when you make a bad choice, I feel very sad for you.

Zero.

If you think she was advising anyone to cheat, you have zero reading comprehension skills.

Life is hard. We all need to stop pretending otherwise. Bravo to you for being honest about what you went through.

Being an adult doesn’t mean never making a mistake. It means when you do, instead of hiding and running like a little child, you own up and do what you can to repair it.
