And all the Jimmy Choos, too!

Not Manolos or Laboutin's in the walk-in closet. Oh no!

Because Choos are such practical footwear, too.

Love the reference to Sears.

An American store. I wasn't aware they sold £400 handbags in America. $800, maybe, but now I know they use pounds there, it will make my trip so much easier!

Little tip here: get an editor.

I think she is much sadder than all of us "cheated" wives - we have the opportunity now to find men who will cherish us whilst she is stuck with the lying scuzzs who will run at the first sign of hassle...we also have our DC who will love us and be with us for ever (we are very much richer ).....

Miss Salacity - not having children "has allowed me to focus on my career". And what might that be? Hooker?

If you are in a relationship and feel the need to have an affair, there is obviously something wrong with your relationship.

TootyFrooty · 05/07/2007 11:43

GG - she probably prefers "escort". So much more classy. Or slag.

ConnorTraceptive · 05/07/2007 11:43

Now now guys none of you really know the reasons why Miss Salacity became a prostitute she may have had an awful childhood [hmm}

hurtwife · 05/07/2007 11:43

I feel proud of everything i do and would shout about to anyone that was still around to listen to me - i would hate to have a double life that only i could enjoy (not to say i dont have the odd fantasy - but even those i share with hubby).

So well done all those who put it about and transfer all manner of diseases - you keep some friends in employment.

ConnorTraceptive · 05/07/2007 11:43

sod it

Carmenere · 05/07/2007 11:44

Ah come on guys, really, stop feeding this troll, we have had far superior trolls on here recently, don't stoop to this level. He/she/it is trying to get all kinds of outraged indignant posts and he/she/it is succeeding. We are better than this, ignore please.

Flashy Designer Clothes

Even More Flashy Designer Clothes!

Would never ever have an affair. It just is not right.

There is only one way an affair is right, and that is when both husband and wife agrees on it. If you want an "open" relationship then fine by me. I don't and neither does my husband.

It is called respect for the other person. If you feel tempted, then tell your husband/wife how you feel and sort it out together.

If you can't sort it out, you have to make a decision and that does not involve CHEATING on the other one. It involves either leaving your wife/husband or "suffering in silence".

UnquietDad · 05/07/2007 11:45

carmenere - but most of us aren't being outraged, we're taking the piss. far more effective.

mylittlestar · 05/07/2007 11:46

jazzi don't feel bad about starting the thread, I am in the aftermath of my H's affair but on a message board like this I think people have to accept that all sorts of threads are started, for all sorts of reasons, and none of us have to read anything we don't want to read!

as for MissSalacity - pmsl! haven't laughed so much in ages!

VoluptuaGoodshag · 05/07/2007 11:46

No - what a strange thing to want. Can think of a million other things I'd want first than an affair. I can't ever imagine cheating on my DH. We may have our differences at times but I truly believe that having an affair is beyond either of us and it's a very nice feeling. I was married before and despite going through some dreadful times, and having plenty opportunity, I still never cheated on my ex. I tried to sort out our differences and when it was apparent they were unfixable, we split. And he never cheated on me either.

ShinyHappyPeopleHoldingHands · 05/07/2007 11:49

I have linked a friend to this thread, someone who may be on the brink of something. We are ALL only human, we can all be tempted and attracted.. but its what we DO (or rather DON'T do) about it that really matters.

lulumama · 05/07/2007 11:52

what expat said

Is MissSalacity deluded into thinking she in in the cast of Dallas or something?

am still snurking at flashy designer clothes

good god, what a sad , lonely, messed up lady

sad really

having to brag so openly about this, me think the 'lady' doth protest way too much

mother2b · 05/07/2007 11:54
Shock
hurtwife · 05/07/2007 11:57

Shiny - hope your friend has a really long think about it.

But we are all human and can be tempted - even i have before!

But it is our ability to think through our actions which make us unique and not animals with lusty urges.

I just know i could never do it - as i am crap at lying. (and thats a good thing - isnt it?)

NoodleStroodle · 05/07/2007 12:11

I sort of fantasize about having an affair but I think its just that furtive excitement that's attractive.

Poor Miss Salacity - obviously either fake or deluded. Some husbands do buy their wives Jimmy Choos' and "flashy designer" though personally I prefer Armani, some husbands do come home from work with a stonking jewels and sometimes he just comes home with a dirty shirt! My DH can quite happily see me as mother of his children and "little minx".

Have you not heard of Jerry Hall's definition of a perfect wife "A lady in the drawing room, a chef in the kitchen and a hooker in the bedroom".

Well we all know which one of those you are - the thing about wives is that they can pull off all three.

MissS you made me piss myself - you spent time writing a post communicating, proudly, that you let married guys take you up the wrong'un for a few tacky pairs of Jimmy Choos.
You have self esteem issues darling

obimomkanobi · 05/07/2007 13:48

I've seen that post somewhere before, I'm pretty sure MissS has trolled other forums with that story.

Anyway, who can be arsed cavorting around the place with sex toys when there is wimbledon to watch.

MissS, you can take my H off my hands for a couple of weeks, but we can't stretch to designer goods. I have got an 'I'm not a plastic bag' though, I'll throw it in.

mylittlestar · 05/07/2007 13:49

NoodleStroodle excellent post!
