[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Many of the wives in this thread are insane.[/quote]

I have posted. I'm not particularly a party line voter on this issue, as it were. I do think good people can cheat and find something better and regret that that was the path they took but also see that they were in a hurt place in their life where they didn't make the best decisions on certain things. I also think some people who cheat are just assholes. Some ex wives are a pain in the ass, but I confess to more than once getting really annoyed at some ex wife on DCUM who *just can't let it go* that her husband divorced and moved on and won't accept any responsibility in that. Like, at a certain point, yeah, get the fuck over it. It's over, build a bridge.

So, basically, I can lean either way depending on the situation. I certainly don't believe all APs and OWs and OMs are awful people, though they might have done something that did cause hurt to someone else. However, on this thread, the one PP who is obsessed with how "crazy" her boyfriend's ex is, and thinks she knows the whole story in and out yet also has never met his kid and has ingrained herself in someone else's dramafest despite her own many issues- she is the kind of person who makes people think all OW suck. She's fallen hook, line, and sinker for the "ex wife is crazy and harmful and awful" trope, sticks by it no matter what, and firmly believes the woman is just a certifiably insane person who was a burden to her perfect boyfriend. The Bertha Mason to her Mr. Rochester, locked in the attic, not able to be divorced due to vague trickery she perpetrates through her mental instability. Yeah, ok.

Georgia Stepmom also paints herself as some savior to her stepchildren. Well, you can be a good stepmom and love your stepkids and not also make yourself out to be the "better mom" than their bio mom. Maybe she does suck as a mom. But she is STILL THEIR MOM and whether Georgia Stepmom believes it or not, they do love her, despite her faults, because of that. Kids love their moms even when they know they aren't great or as good as other parents. They just do. So she can really lose people with her Other Woman's Burden spiel she loves to pull out when she needs lauds again. [/quote]
