[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't have empathy for the man who murdered my daughter but I work every day on trying to forgive him.  He is in prison and will be for the rest of his life.  I do have empathy for his parents.  Yes, I think they could have done a better job with him -- maybe seen the warning signs more clearly -- but I know they are suffering.

So, I will go against the grain here, OP, and tell you to try to have empathy for this woman.  She has issues and problems that you don't know about and has been hurt by the same troubled man who hurt you years ago.   [/quote]

Yeah, but, you're way on the other side of the spectrum looking through the lens of extreme pain and needing to forgive him to minimize that pain (and I'm reaching here, because I don't know you, and if you want to flame me, I probably deserve it).

What happened to you is unimaginable for most people and nearly unsurvivable. We're talking about a dirty-dog-dh here and a woman who foofed him knowing he was married. Who cares what her history is. She chose to knowingly foof another gal's dh (and they had kids presumably). She wasn't thinking about anyone but herself when OP's dh's dick was in her puss. She didn't care about OP or her kids. Or the consequences of it. Who cares what her stupid little life challenges were/are.

Life, the universe, whatever you want to call it ..... doesn't care whether or not she has empathy. Life is a brutal hell for most people in the world. If it makes OP feel better that this bitch had it coming, then good for her. If OP saw fit to have empathy for the woman, same thing, good for her. Everyone copes in their own way, and it means nothing in the scope of human life, whichever way you choose to see it. [/quote]
