It's still on your story list, the title is "Sorry"
What happened ?
Wrong category . Stupid ending, if you can call it an ending. What were you trying to 'say' in this story ? That she wasn't a spoiled , materialistic bitch after all ? You have written a lot of better stories . At least tell us...did she return the boots ?
This is already posted, years ago. Why repost it with a different title?
Repost of an old story by THIS author, his other effort today is pathetic so I guess he's just renaming old stories.
an unsuccessful rereading of "Sorry" by Slirpuff.

Is it a very slow day at the laptop? Why are you reposting a story you published years ago. It wasn't that flash first time around & it hasn't got any better in the interim. 1*
I immediately recognized this story, but wasn't sure it was one of yours until the other comments named it as "Sorry". Well, at least you didn't plagiarize it! But, yeah, WTF??? Reposting the same story under a new name (years later) is almost as bad. Nice way to insult what few readers you had left. Now if you tell us that your account has been hacked, that's a different story....

original category for post.
No problem.
welcome back
The POV switched several times from first person the husband, first person the cop, and narrative. No one has more trouble with first person than this writer.
Can lead to big consequences....
Sadly, most arguments of this kind (about money, 'cause for most working folks, every month is usually tight) can escalate quickly and become real, sharp thorns in a relationship. I was married for over a decade to a woman who couldn't control her spending, and it pretty much killed our marriage. I was relieved to get her name off my accounts when we started working through the divorce.
While I agree with others that it should be in Non-Erotic, putting it in LW will certainly get you more readers, and if the truth in the story helps a few of them deal with their own situations IRL, that's great!
Thanks for another interesting read!
has already been posted on Literotica. I read it here at least a couple of years ago.
I haven't read the whole thing yet, but I peeked, the end is different.
Definitely not a complete re-post, but still the same story with some re-writes.
Why? Five years later, did you just forget you posted it?
and neither does most of your commenters but they sure can complain.
A loving wives tale, no cheating,just a normal married couple.
And I'll say again what I thought back then: the guy's problem is that he married the dumb bitch, and now he has to live with it. Fucked.
Tough story. I was expecting him to end up on boot hill. The lady did not seem to have a very level head but that is probably what saved him! A lot of women would have just gotten angry at him for not calling in.
"The first year I know I gave into her way too much, but wasn't that what husbands did for their new brides?" OK, so we have a dumb shit wuss for a husband. Almost anything is possible, but its going to be at least partially his fault for enabling her. Let's see.
"I took what was left of my dinner and flushed it down the garbage disposal. Grabbing a beer I headed to the den." So he's throwing away food, and has beer in the refrigerator. And he wants us to think he's pinching pennies? Now I'm really convinced this is another dumb-ass husband story, and I start to skim.
"It was a strip of land between Lake Harmony and Otter Lake. (With a road running through it? Hmm?) "Maybe he lost his phone there," Kenny said. "Or, maybe he's doing some night fishing," David added. OK, so this is just a totally unbelievable All The Men Are Dumbshits story. When the officer points out that the phone is in a location that is remote and desolate, it didn't occur to them that MAYBE that's why no one has reported, A FUCKING WRECK? And they don't start this inquiry until it is night time?
And the whole moral and point of the story is . . . . . . ., don't own a car with a difficult seat belt release.
Well, at least it was worth the price of admission. I'm not an expert on all your stories, but this has got to be one of the most inane and stupid. Why do I think you already knew that? I wish I knew the real reason you posted this nonsense.
It was a bet, wasn't it? Did you win?
We argued, I wrecked, I didn't get fair value for my car.
Even if it is a repost, enjoyed it this time just as much as the first time I read "Sorry". Always liked this one. The crowd here is way to rough on her for such a small mistake that led to bad circumstances... save it for the others that deserve it!
This one had all development and no point and the other had a point but no development. This is not a Loving Wives story, there is no sex or intimation of anything happening outside of the marriage. In fact, it has nothing to do with sex at all. It also has no real ending, and other than they got over this tiff and he won't run out on an argument again, nothing is resolved either. It is just a rendition of facts from one first person view, to third person, to another first person, back to the original first person. Too much folk writing in this piece to have much competence. I get the feeling you suck at this stuff. Another single star rating. Congrats!
Sorry to say not your best. A sad short play reflecting the lives of two immature, young spouses. A totally crippled husband, whose many injuries will likely never heal that well, and all for what and $80 pair of boots the spoiled wife had to have? The reality is he was right, and some times you have to say no to her. If he keeps consenting to her wishes she would never grow and mature. Pathetic story.
In fact I was able to explain why the daughter could have a different blood type from her father: her mother has the daughter's blood type. To draw you a map: the father has type A and the daughter has type B because the mother has type B (or AB). Slirpuff never says what the blood type of the mother is, but acts as if the fact that the daughter's blood type is different from the father is enough to show he is not the father. Unless the mother is also A or is O, there is no reason to think the father is not the father. So, it is not me who is the retard, but there is no sense in arguing with someone who won't stand behind their comments. Good luck to all nameless commenters.
Well written from start to finish. Worthy of 5 stars.
This is a very good story with no sex, no cheating, but about a slice of life.
The anon's who shoot this story down are wingnuts.
You've got to admit it's different from other L.W. Stories!......Surely They can trace The make of car that hit Him From the paint on the broken fender of His car!.... Then back trace CCTV footages just before the Impact and Presto You've got the car! .... That's My Theory!..........Brilliant Story 5 Stars ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ WOOF!
you should only marry a mature adult. This girl was a spoiled child.
Great wok, you can almost feel his pain and struggles in the wrecked car. She learned a hard lesson about what is important.
Why he needed to get out of the seat belt. Except maybe to get some dirty water to rehydrate a little.
Hit hard enough to knock you over rail etc
Has to be damage to his car
Police report
Repairs
Unless he also knows low lives car and him will be found
I liked it a few years ago when you posted it under the title 'Sorry." What's going on?
Dan you are right on. Penny I always enjoy your comments but this time you've been watching too much CSI. Check the auto repair shops in the area if he doesn't turn himself in. WOOF!... Signed: BTW
Much to similar to "Sorry." If there had to be a new version, change it in some way; maybe not the happy ending, have them split up, SOMETHING!
Not sure this is a LW story buttttt. Did she learn anything about living within their means - NO. Is she still spoiled - likely. Did the cops look for the other car, doesn't seem like it - hit and run. So other than he was darn lucky what was the point of the story? Its not a BTB or RAAC, just a feel good, lucky as hell?!? Should have been in non-erotic or romance get a much higher score.

Or is this a Hallmark movie test drive - if so you missed the big kiss that cures all woes ending.
Good story that highlights that most stupid arguments in marriages are about money especially for newly weds.
This is a great story about personal survival in the most possible situation.
This running elements were sort of so so but the man's struggle survived was really amazing and extremely well done.
I thought I read this story before. Almost verbatim.
Still, a good story. Arguments are too commonly over small things. A marriage is often about communications, acceptance, and negotiations.
You did great graphically describing what he was going through. I could feel it
I understand his being overly concerned about the release button. My brother was in a car crash and ended up in a stream with water 6 inches above the car roof. The only way they got out was because my brother was able to wind down the window and eventually open a door.
Every new car he bought he got the dealer to change the electric windows to manual wind up ones. They all thought he was mad.
Well he is. But he is also still alive.
wow great story enjoyed it thoroughly loose ends were all tolerable and and though there were surprises no wtf did that come from stuff that makes so many totally unbelievable
Good thing for wifey, with both arms out of service, he could not give her the spanking that she so very much deserved. LP
I enjoyed this story. It was an interesting read. Thanks for your writing.
Would have like to see a bit more closure at the end. But a good story nonetheless.
Great story but the ending is too abrupt and does not address the open issues
The guy's an asshole for drafting a one-sided ore-nup. The rest doesn't matter.
A guy who gets mad at his wife for buying boots......?
Seriously, good story, brilliantly written.....until it stops.
I loved this story.
I don't know why but I found Holly to be rather adorable, and just a little spoiled and a little naive. If the biggest problem in my marriage was some irresponsible spending I'd far prefer that to a cheater or a woman who flirts with other men.
Getting your girl some boots is a small price to pay in the face of that.
This should have been in non-erotic... or she though he was angry about the boots and he was angry about the boots... and what she did with her father's best friend to be able to pay for them.
All good in the end. But sadly 6 years later, in another fight over a $500 pair of boots she got on sale for $200, Holly walked out this time in a rage. She ended up in some bar where some predator type worked her over and 2 hours later she was on her back in a sleazy motel getting railed. Of course when she returned home in the morning, her husband immediately recognized her sorry state and she broke down confessing her mistake. Needless to say the marriage did not last. But it made for a somewhat entertaining albeit rather unoriginal story in the LW category on Literotica.
Wrong category. Definitely not LW. Non-erotic would be more appropriate. But the story was a little goofy yet good. I'd prefer a little argument over a pair of boots any time rather than a cheating wife.
