Every person in PP’s story is an asshole: the APs, the mom, the grandmother, and PP. Trash.

We laughed because she WAS annoying and we always wanted her to shut up. My mother wasn't social with either of them but when I described the interaction she 'knew'.

Divorced, a few years went by, ran into one of the friends who told me her realtor dad had been banging our other friend's realtor mother.

I remember how strange/annoyed I thought it was when she said that about them having sex- I said "you have sex with dad and he doesn't speak to you like that" and she just gave me this level look and repeated the story for my grandmum who was visiting and waited for her reaction "oh, they're diddling!" she said.

How old were you? Your mom told you that your friends' parents were having an affair/being cheated on, based on that? Even if she was correct, that seems wildly inappropriate to say to you. And your grandmother too? That's awful.


yes but the grandmother said "They're DIDDLING" so that makes it ok.

Somebody posted on DCUM recently about his wife coming to surprise him on a business trip. I guess she used her ID to get a key and let herself into his hotel room and he was in bed with his AP!!

He hired his affair partner’s husband? That’s brazen.


+1. It's psycho-level brazen. You are lucky to have gotten rid of that guy!

That’s sad. Life is short.


It is sad, but when a parent has bad enough judgement to indulge in afternooners when living walking distance from the high school, this little anecdote is only the tip of the iceberg.

I don't know if my story qualifies but here we go:
Marriage was already on the fritz and I took our kids to see my parents for two weeks. When I returned I found condoms in the nightstand and we didn't use them...
Confronted my ex that I had proof of his infidelity without referencing the condoms, only that I had "solid" proof. He got really flustered and finally talked about "emails" with another woman that were inappropriate but "nothing ever happend" he then forwarded the emails to me to prove his innocence.
Those emails were from 2 years prior and not innocent if read between the lines. What an idiot

I few years ago I mentioned how my ex husbands affair came to light as its kind of a really random/distinctive story. I was in line at Starbucks and the lady 2 customers in front of me ordered my husbands drink which is VERY specific and completely made up by him/I've never heard of it anywhere else. She also ordered a normal drink with it. It was *just* enough info that got my wondering and I started digging around and the whole thing came to light. I remember reading on DCUM how one woman smelled the hairspray her college roommate used on her husband once in awhile. Just one of those subconscious memory triggers that got her wondering. In my experience affairs come to light after a random/not terribly serious or guilty thing happens but its enough to trigger an internal signal that once turned on brings more to the surface fairly quickly. Anyone have a unique uncovering story?
