Like Becca, I would like to apologize to everyone for perpetuating a fraud, as I am neither French nor from Montana.

I’d have to agree.

Well first, she’s had boob lifts and implants, etc

Probably Kim Jong Un because Donald Trump already fucks me every day.

David didn’t want to be in that marriage, and his indifference to Shannon was apparent. Shannon was an emotional wreck all season likely because of it. She was the one doing the emotional work and trying to keep it together, and he seemed to be disinterested. I haven’t experienced this, but I think no marriage is…

If it’s between being rich and married to David, or not married to David and poor, I’d choose the first option. Because David is so boring, it’s like he’s not there, anyways.

If you had to choose between one or the other, knowing you’d never have them both, what would you choose? Love or money?

I’m here too and can’t believe the support he has! Letters to the editor in the Merc., signs, the whole nine yards.

On Saturday morning my neighbor partied on her deck with at least three other people from 2:30 am to about 6:00 am. Shouting nonstop. She’s a grandmother in her 40s. I don’t see how that it possible without drugs. I’m 34 and I can’t stay up past 2 am to save my life.

‘did i really hurt you that bad that you don’t even want to be my friend?’

I think this kind of comment comes from someone who’s never lived on the street before. If you think an estranged husband is tough to live with, imagine hanging out on a damp, crap-covered sidewalk all night. I’ve been homeless and thank GOD for friends who took me in. But I promised to only stay for one week at each…

The Sane kind. The Rational kind. The Cooler Heads Prevail kind. The Non Reactionary kind. The Don’t Make A Shitty Situation Shittier kind.

Advice given by someone who’s been there w/a newborn.

Jane’s response to letter #1 is getting a lot of hate, I think unjustly. The sad fact is that what this woman is going through is far from uncommon, and most women in this situation stay, even if they can’t forgive their husband’s infidelity/abuse/whatever. It’s a moral compromise they make in order to preserve their…

I think this is sensible advice. Key points being that she needs physical, logistical and financial support now with baby and that she is super hormonal so decisions are influenced.

I thought it was brilliant advice. For folks criticizing...perhaps you’re caught up on your idealistic high horse and don’t understand real life? Saying “you should leave!” is the obvious, and easy answer, which would have been chosen by the poster in ideal circumstances. Get a grip!

Actually, I thought it was good advice. I went through the same situation and I was a fucking mess. Ol’ boy could have helped me out quite a bit with the baby until I regained my sanity. Then I would have kicked his ass to the curb.

The very best advice. I was kind of in the same situation as LW1, complete with not only hormones but preeclampsia. Jane and I assume LW1 has half a brain since she and her husband are seeking counseling. It’s tempting to flounce, but not in anyone’s best interest. Have bebe, get counseling, find a good lawyer. Better…

I found out my ex was cheating when I was 8 months pregnant. I locked down emotionally and decided I could stick it out for two years, instead of taking my toddler and soon-to-be-newborn and trying to manage on my own. I was a SAHM so I frankly needed that financial security.

You flatter me (while insulting these sweet letter writers). I have some advice for you!
