Good for you.Hmm

CatinMyLap · 01/03/2019 23:54

No, it’s a selfish act that fucks up so many peoples lives around them. No one things about the wave of an affair.

CatinMyLap · 01/03/2019 23:54

*thinks

Mrsmummy90 · 01/03/2019 23:55

🙄😒

AnneLovesGilbert · 02/03/2019 00:03

Well what’s your excuse?

RoseOfSharyn · 02/03/2019 00:04

There's always an excuse...that you're a spineless cunt that won't let your partner know that they deserve better.

Glad your affair is strong. Your backbone obviously isn't.

OrigamiZoo · 02/03/2019 00:07

Here we go, what do you want, a medal or absolution?

lifegoes · 02/03/2019 00:09

You should ask yourself if it's that good and going strong then why you posting on here?

Jsku · 02/03/2019 00:10

Why would you come to MN looking for an excuse?
It works for you and makes sense to you - what do you need from anonymous strangers?

RoseOfSharyn · 02/03/2019 00:11

Meeee and mrsjones2344, we got a thinggggg going onnnnn....

Mummyoftwokids · 02/03/2019 00:15

Why not just end your other relationship then?!

Mrsmummy90 · 02/03/2019 00:28

@Mummyoftwokids because she's a selfish bitch who wants to have her cake and eat it too.

Tennesseewhiskey · 02/03/2019 02:31

Congratulations....you're a twat!

Andyjakeydan · 02/03/2019 07:18

Mrsjones i’m currently in the receiving end of an affair and it has totally fucked up my life....why are you having an affair ? Is it worth it really ?

MumsyJ · 02/03/2019 07:33

You for real? Hmm

Nc1548 · 02/03/2019 07:58

Maybe change the user name to MrsBait if this is meant to outrage MN posters Hmm

Morgan12 · 02/03/2019 08:05

Why are you telling us?

howwillwedeal · 02/03/2019 08:19

Always, always, always an excuse ..... tell us your one.

AnyFucker · 02/03/2019 08:23

Yawn

2019willbegreat · 02/03/2019 08:24

@RoseOfSharyn.....that was exactly what was going through my mind 😂.

Don't feed the troll people.

VirtuallyConfused · 02/03/2019 09:10

Excuse is a interesting word.

Anyone could come up with an excuse or a reason for anything.

You are doing it, and enjoying it. Having a valid excuse isn't going to help if it gets found out.

I'm having an affair. I have reasons, but ultimately it's a selfish act.

NeverStopExploring · 02/03/2019 09:13

Interesting you say it’s going strong. What do you mean by that? That your both successful in lying to people you claim to love? I just think it’s the cowards way out. It’s clear your actual relationship should end and instead of facing up to it you live in a fantasy. Totally tragic.

user1479305498 · 02/03/2019 11:06

They always make affairs look exciting and glam on TV, in books etc, what they actually do is fuck someone else’s mind for years, cause them to have difficulty ever trusting again etc. I have been both sides of it in different marriages, I am quite ashamed of what I put my first husband through, even though he wasn’t kind to me, I should just have left, with women I think it is generally a sign that things aren’t right as they see it , with men I think it’s more mixed between stuff isn’t right or they just want the buzz of ‘new’ or more sex than they are getting etc

user1479305498 · 02/03/2019 11:07

The only redeeming thing in my case is that the guy concerned was single .

Robin2323 · 02/03/2019 11:37

But why would anyone want sloppy seconds?

The wife gets everything and ow/om gets a few snatched moments , even after 'hobbies'

Doesn't like a win to me ?

And that's before you start on the emotional damage that will effect the wife / husband and kids.
