Ask me anything: I am a kept woman

I think they're so glad I'm not asking them for anything, that they don't feel the need to know details. They are not the helicopter types. When I go home to visit they ask "How is everything going?" and when I reply "Great!" they nod and move on.

The impression I've gotten is that she's high strung and ... doesn't put out. They had big issues with having their second child because she wanted one but didn't want to have sex to "make" him. She is exhausted a lot despite having a full time housekeeper and nanny.

He is.

Not to you?

Not to me. He was engaged when we met.

Wives are not "kept women".

A non-working wife with no children is a "kept woman" just as a non-working husband with no children is a "kept man".

The only difference is that the arrangement is sanctioned by law.

Not according to the traditional definition. You have an obvious bias against married people that do not bring in income.

Does she work? I could understand exhaustion if her job was demanding. But if she is a SAHM with a nanny and housekeeper, OMG.

I can't imagine sidelining my own life like that. You are young - you should be building your own life, not performing as this man's plaything.

I have health insurance. While I understand that you can't imagine sidelining your life, I hope you can understand that I don't feel I'm in a race to tick boxes off a checklist of goals.

How do you guys even know this person is for real?

Nothing is scary about supporting myself. This relationship started while I was in college and working full time just hasn't happened. I am sure at some point this relationship will come to an end. I am not worried about finding a job.

Wow, if you aren't a troll, you are seriously the least interesting AMA poster in the history of these boards, OP.

Being a mistress makes this a bit slimier. No girl power chant for you.

Why the judgement? Why can't 2 people be free to love the way they want? And who are you to judge?

But she says she doesn't love the guy. Just the lifestyle. So, basically, it's like prostitution with just the one guy, right?

By your right wing definition, SAHM = prostitute. Drop it; you don't want to go there.

Ha ha ... that's the first time I've ever been described as "right wing"!!!

But, seriously, I don't get it. SAHM who doesn't love the DH and is only staying for their own lifestyle (excluding kids) would = prostitute to me (i.e. giving sex for money). SAHM who doesn't love DH and is staying for the good of the kids is sacrificing, not gaining (so not prostitute).

Are you okay, PP? Sounds like you are feeling a bit paranoid ...

Yes, I am sure all the problems in the marriage are her fault ... With this dude who had been having an affair since before they were married! He must be a real peach. That's the sad part about this whole story - OP must see him as some sort of amazing older man, when he is really just a skeevy ass. Maybe she will figure it out.

He could have broken off the engagement and not had two children with his wife. It's not her, it's him, pp.

Were you 'dating' him when his kids were born?

They think I'm lucky sometimes and think old men are gross other times.
Family doesn't know. When I need a date for a wedding or something I bring a guy-friend. Sometimes a gay one, sometimes not.
