All Comments on 'Lindsey and Rob and...'

so becasue another Cock did NOT quite touch her Pussy 2 years into the marriage...everything is fine?

<br></br>

There are two big... no make that Huge plot holes here which just KILL this story.

<br></br>

FIRST why did Rob NOT tell his wife about her her girfriend said? About Suzie's desire to cheat? <b> This is NEVER explained. I dont care about Rob's decision per se... but WHY say Nothing?</b>

<br></br>

SECOND... a wife who reacts that way 2 years into the marriage REALLY should not be a wife.

<br></br>

Sure she has every right to be upset at his neglect. Couldn't she take a trip somewhere ? Go to the movies? <b>She went to the club to cheat. PERIOD. She went to the club to Hurt Rob. She went to her girlfriends house to FUCK another man! </b>

<br></br>

is this marriage over? I suppose one can latch onto the idea that another cock did NOT enter her pussy. But look marriages have a lot of ups and down. This is 2 years into the marriage and THIS is how she reacts?

<br></br>

NOT a good sign .....

I think you took some typical plot twists for this genre and did a really good job of writing this story. You left the couple at a point to decide, or for the reader to decide, where they go from here. You gave them some history they needed to clear up and some mistakes. Mistakes that a young couple might tend to make. It was believable and an enjoyable read.

Oh and as to Harry...yes I can see the husband not telling the wife about her friend coming on to her, and though the wife did make mistakes, forgiveness and working on the marriage is a real life option.

I think this was a reasonably realistic story - people make mistakes. It is easy to get into a "live-to-work" rut - most of us have been there done that at some point in our lives. For this young couple, the story is about a mutual wake-up call, and I think it is well written.

We all could figure out that it wouldgo one of two ways, of course, but you did it well.

Despite what other's may think, she didn't cheat on him. She wanted, she needed to be important to someone. She needed to be held, to be touched, to be loved and lusted after. Rob put his energy, his life into his work and left his wife with nothing. That's not a marriage, it's roommates. Lindsey didn't want another man to love her, she wanted the man she married and if he didn't love her, then she was going to find it somewhere else.

I see GT... so you are saying that instad of the frustrated wife leaving for a few days to visit family.... or taking a short trip... or going to the movies...

<br></br>

it was far better for her to go to a BAR... meet some guys... engage in sexual contact with them... then going to her friends house to fuck them...

<br></br>

THAT sort of response is OK....??? I dont want to come across as Dt Laura here but come GT....

This was very erotic for awhile until they started crying in the beer....

crying over the beer!! We should not tolerate this type of desrespect! ALL BEER DESERVERS RESPECT !

The theme wasn't new but like anything else the devils in the details and how well its told - which in this case was written quite well with believable fleshed out characters acting like some would.<P>

You know its puzzling - some readers look for total rationality in characters and situations which if 100% in real life there wouldn't be problems - just discussed solutions. How inhuman -- or Harrylike.<P>

Good Show Author - we look forward to your next.<P>

With High Regard

I have to give a lot of credit to anyone who submits a somewhat realistic portrayal of a marriage in jeopardy in the minefield of Loving Wives stories.<P> Muirmadra created an enjoyable tale of a husband who worked harder at his career than his marriage and a wife who almost stepped over the brink of fidelity only to hold back thus keeping the marriage intact.<P> My one wish would have been for a more thorough description of Lindsey's pre-Rob sexual history. I'm sure that would have made for very interesting reading.

<BR>Good story, but this marriage is on an unstable foundation. And not so much from Rob's overworking and long hours; because that work-level was jointly agreed to by Rob and Lindsey. Though Rob should have tried to balance hard-work and home-life a bit better, but unfortunately that is usually something that is learned in the early years of a marriage.</BR>

<BR>But, Lindsey's behavior in the first two years of marriage leaves a bit to be desired. She is the one who causes the foundation to become most unstable. Her briefly told background (prior to the marriage) reminds me of those party girls who never seem to mature and grow-up. I think she may have just now began to understand that when you take the step to get married a certain level of maturity has to come with that. Behaviors that were acceptable when you were a single young man or woman are no longer acceptable when you take the commitment of marriage. Unfortunately, some people have to learn that the hard way.</BR>

I wondered why she took off the wedding rings but other than that, I wasn't sure just who had done what to whom and had a very good read to the end to find out!!!

1st, great story. Yes, the characters did not act the way I would, but, then, they are not me!

There was a fundamental problem with their marraige, Rob spending too much time working and Lindsey resenting it. I have had to work 12/7s for months, but I still made sure I worked in time for my wife.

Also, my wife was mature enough to understand that turnarounds end, that I would get a lot of time off sooner or later.

That said, resentments happen. I do not think it was so weird that Rob did not disclose to Lindsey what her best friend did. He took a decisive step and terminated the relationship, he thought.

I also think that Lindseys desire to let down her hair was well covered. People naturally tend to gravitate to what they are/were used to doing to unwind. The author states that Lindsey did not mean to cheat, she was just plain stupid. Uh, that means that Linsey was plain stupid, not cheating already. I guess Harry never heard of the Dillbert Principle, everyone does stupid things.

What I did think was weird was Rob having a friend try to seduce his wife, it was his job to protect her from herself. In my opinion it would have been very effective for him to pop in after a while and confront her at the dance hall.

Whatever, I still find your writing excellent and your stories plausable. Thanks! TTom

Very believable. The fact that they were married for a relatively short time makes it even more so. We tend to fall back on familiar behavior when we feel slighted. Unfortunately, this behavior may not fit the present situation. Lindsey was seduced by a self serving, spiteful "friend", but even though she went much farther than she should, she was able to come to her senses in the nick of time. Rob has every reason to be upset with her, but he might be able to come to grips with the fact that since she did resist, finally, that she would be unlikely to cheat in the future. I really believe that she was strongly considering going farther than she did, as the sexy clothes and removing the rings would indicate, plus her initiating the night out with Suzie. When push came to shove she changed her mind. A move toward maturity....perhaps. Let's just accept that she did leave, and even if Rob had not overheard her plans she would not have done more than she did. Did she cheat? Of course. Is it forgivable? Probably. Good story.

<p>I just couldn't like the story. Please let me explain why a second.......</p>

<p>The premise of the story was that the wife was feeling neglected, left out, and that the husband thought that his career was more important than her. But you set the stage on one side, then had the cast move off to the other side. Like you had Rob (and at the beginning Lindsey also) say, when they were first married they <b><i>both</i></b> agreed that to get what they wanted in life for a couple years they would have to let Rob put in long hours to get to a good point. But one of the problems I had was that once Lindsey saw what she <i>agreed</i> to wasn't what she really <i>wanted</i>, the story didn't really have her sit Rob down and renegotiate the agreement (though to be honest at that point it was kinda of too late). She didn't give up all the nice cars, suggest they get a cheaper house, or or anything.</p>

<p>What the story did was give her buyers remorse, then the story suggested that because Rob was doing what they agreed he needed to do, he was also 50% responsible for not seeing to her needs and that lead to him sharing part of the blame for her decision to do what she did. I disagree with that. Once a very intelligent woman told me, if someone is no longer happy in a marriage they should just get a divorce and get out. When they decide to "cheat" they are taking the cowards way out. They are trying to keep the "safety of a marriage", while getting the enjoyment of not knowing what is coming next, the uncertainty that is around the next corner, but when they tire they want to have someone to come back to. They don't have the courage to "be" single, but they want to play at it when it suits them. And I agree with her. Lindsey's character certainly was doing just that. The story even had her take her rings off so that no one would know she was married while she enjoyed being pursued by other men.</p>

<p>That is what this character did. And the story (at least to me) felt like they trying to show how if a husband (or wife) ignores their spouse, then they have to share some blame if they get into a position to cheat. No. And as an <i>adult</i>, no one can *make* me "almost" cheat. No one. If do it is because "I" choose too. Just like no one can make me steal or murder. That is a decision *I* have to come to. I can't understand why someone will believe that someone can persuade someone to cheat, but if they kill someone then no one could possibly make them do that</p>

<p>Then the other part was the way you had the main character Rob displayed as someone who wouldn't put up with cheating, but you had him set his wife up to test her fidelity, then his wife decided that making out with another man, letting him feel her up, was no big deal. The beginning of the story had him upset that Lindsey was going to <i><b>dance</b></i> with another man, but tongue hockey is ok? For some reason in the story Rob didn't think her doing this was that big a deal. Why? That is contrary to the character as you started him off as designed. I'm not saying that he should have hit her, divorced her, or something drastic, but you had him act like it was an everyday thing, like shaking hands. I'm not so sure if some guy had my wife undressed in the back of a car, had his tongue down her throat trying to see if her tonsils had any real taste, and she was letting him, we *wouldn't* have something to say about it if and/or when we started talking again. Cheating on someone is more than just having sex with them.</p>

<p>I really don't see this as a happy ending. The wife was making out with other men, she got buy's remorse, and the husband decided that he was 50% to blame because the wife no longer felt their agreement was fair instead of sitting him down and talking to him about it, as <i>most</i> loving wives do. To me it felt really forced. It wish it didn't, but it felt like a bunch of outrageous behaviors performed and a happy ever ending put on it. Like letting someone you know, who you work with, make out with your wife, then after it is over, giving him a ride home, all while telling him it wasn't his fault and you two were alright with what he did? Uhhhmmm okkkaaayyy.</p>

<p>Sorry, but I just couldn't get behind it. </p>

-Risq

I think the wife was daft to go out with a single friend. I think equally the husband was daft for setting her up. Can this be forgiven by both parties? I think so. It would take some serious life changes though. The wife is right, work is coming first. in anyones marriage no matter how long they have been married the marriage should come first. nicely written story. A case of saved by the bell if you ask me.

I just wish that the author would have written in some graphic sex, and vividly explained what her sex life was like before she met Rob. Even with the scenes of hard cock and wet pussy being omitted, it is still a very good story. Thanks for the good post. ...Rich

Technically, the authorship here is flawed due to the mixed point of view. Parts of the story are told in first person and others are told in third person omniscient. The constant shifting of perspective back and forth jars the continuity of the storytelling and makes the story less readable than it would be if it were simply told in third person omniscient. There are also a few grammatical oopsies that damage the quality of the prose as well.

<P>

Despite the holes in the authorship, the storyline and the characters are compelling. Rob and Lindsey are struggling with a common problem in many marriages: one partner or the other is forced to commit lots of time to an external project, in this case Rob's job. The other partner begins to feel neglected. The fundamental problem is balance in the relationship, and from that issue, both protagonists make major blunders along the way. Lindsey's decision to go club hopping with Suzie only makes matters worse. Rob's decision to test Lindsey's fidelty by launching Ned and Tom at them is even more foolhardy. Rather than sit down and communicate with each other, they each decide to commit foolishness. It almost torpedoes their marriage. The author's conclusion to the tale is inspiring and uplifting, and it makes us appreciate the depth of the couple's affection for each other. They both understand that they erred in this matter, and they recommit to making their marriage work.

<P>

The character descriptions and the little anecdotes that introduce them to the story are superbly done. We see Suzie as the impact character, at her core jealous of Lindsey and hateful to Rob because he spurned her. Despite Suzie's machinations, we see her as a person, not an object. She has her bad points and character flaws but her actions are realistic and understandable even if we don't like her much. Even Ned and Tom are fleshed out as supporting characters. They play their parts in the story credibly without being plastic men lacking emotion.

<P>

All in all, a fine Loving Wives tale. Thank you for sharing it with us.

Just a little hard for me to believe any husband would have let things go as far as this character did. Keep writing.

Tired Old Wimp Fart

the comments of HAIRYIN VA. If I see his negative comments about a story I knwo that it will not be a have the spouse killede then the body burned but will have some form of forgiveness something that anyone but HAIRY would want for himself (assuming HAIRY is not an it).

What I did not understand was the comment that the company will subcontracting work to make money by giving it to super Architect. This after the other firms had contacted him, for some reason he does not recognize a job offered to him by someone else then does it for his firm. Most firms I am familiar with would fire someone for outsourcing his work. In any event why bring this up once then ignored?

Why would a husband set up his wife like this? It's fucking ridiculous.

silly "misunderstanding" story...

Crap, at the least, is good for fertilizer. Wifey reneged. You can spin it to your little heart's content, but there it is. She AGREED to allow him to work balls to the walls. Then, as Risq pointed out, she suffered buyers remorse. As all adults know, Buyers Remorse, WILL NOT GET YOU OUT OF A CONTRACT!!

not as a married woman but as a slut. There is an old saying that is very important. You are know by your friends. Your associates identify who you are. If you dont want to be thought of as a whore or slut, dont hand out with whores and sluts. Whether she had intercourse or not doesnt mean she wasnt involved in sexual behavior with men not her husband. She broke her marriage contract and the marriage was over. She is trash, her excuses for her behavior are just that excuses. Spouses that serve in the armed forces that are gone for long periods of time doing their jobs have the right to expect the other spouse to remain faithful to the marriage. If they can do it and many in WWII did for years then some piece of fluff living with ehr husband can for a period of months. To expect less is to assume this woman is so shallow that her self interest is more important than the other spouse or the marriage. His choice was to dump out the trash and get that divorce ASAP with no remorse whatsoever. Piss poor ending that in the story.

A great story of a husband and wife that loved each other enough to overcome a problem in their marriage. Some of the readers don't like the plot but screw them! The intent of your story was that the two loved each other enough to overcome what "Could" have happened! It didn't and that was what made the story great! Jesus! Isn't this what any of us would want to happen if and when we have problems? Marriage is a work in progress...

I couldn't get past the first page. To say it was trite would be generous. It was dull, unimaginative, predictable, unbelieveable, self contradictory, immature and shot full of plot and character behavior holes. No one cares about stupid people, no one wants to read about stupid characters. Remove your name from this and delete the entire story. anon jerry

Thanks to the author for a nice 'romance' story. The husband definitely is entitled to some retrib vs Suzie. I'll look for your next story! Thanks again.

....over the top. Communication is the key, and finishing off Suzie slut would have been nice but unnecessary.

So, I can't see any room for Lindsey the bitch to complain. Just another lying cunt in a world of lying cunts.

Another good story full of what hsppens to far too many people wrking hard to live attain the "good life"

End was a bit abrupt. Lindsey just got done with a make out and fondling session, and there are no repercussions, nothing to work out between them? As others have said she could have gone to the movies or visited girl friends; planning a clubbing evening with sexy underwear and dress and carousing with a woman she knows to be a slut is not the statement of a woman who loves her man. Rob is going to have more tough projects, late nights, and travel over the rest of his career. Is she trustworthy? She barely made the right decision this time. How about the next time?

I'd say that tells the story. She was looking to deceive someone. My wife has gone out with friends before. But she never leaves the house without her rings. Were she to leave the house wearing them, and then go to a bar after taking them off, it would send a clear signal.

Some men, like the character in this story, might well overlook that. I wouldn't.

boo hoo, just another weak male and lying slut

I can relate ! In every "click" there's always at least one lonely, jealous, vindictive, desperate, conniving scandalous beyotch! My husband has forbidden me from hanging out with two of my friends, one has NEVER in her life has had a real boyfriend or ever been married-- but has no problem dishing out relationship advice-- she meets these guys off the Internet & fucks /sucks them the same day, her criteria in a man/relationship is a 10"inch dick... She's a slut & she isn't afraid to admit & preach it... My husband has no problem with her but he doesn't want her sluttish ways rubbing off me-- my BFF hubby agrees with my hubby.. I also have another BFF whom I've know for 10 years-- my hubby doesn't trust her, he never told me why, but every time she's in town I can't make plans with her until I've spoken to him, apparently hubby doesn't like her attitude/views towards relationships & marriages.. She even told me I should leave my husband (8years ago) but I'm not weak minded, I'm a grown ass woman with a mind of her own & I'd kill a bitch before she fucks up my marriage..( As god is my witnesses ).. There's always that one or two envious desperate jealous skank who wish she had what you have required & she will lie, cheat & steal to get on your level.. You just have to recognize bullshit when it's trying to shit on you yet tell you it's snowing... I knew exactly what type of tramp the wife has confided in, she made a pass at hubby---- he embarrassed her herpes infected ass & this enraged her ! so she most likely been plotting her version of revenge, the gutter trash slut friend was enraged for two reasons, 1.) hubby rebuked her offer & 2.) hubby took her slut-in-training-friend away from her... I'm glad the wife wised up & realized just how calculating this bitch is-- she's miserable & she wanted her "friend" miserable like her..those type of women aren't marriage material --they're fucking material.. Me--I'm not a very trust -a-skank-with-my-man type of a chic; I trust HIM but I wouldn't trust the whores as far as I can throw'em.. I was very proud of the wife in this story, she never should've called/confided in her predator trash friend, she should've listened to her husband when he told her to stay away from the human waste... Trust the hubbies instincts.. A whore is a whore is a whore... My husband nor the husband in this story was trying to be possessive or anything; they just can recognize a snake in disguise... So I was happy that she didn't fall into the dirty whores trap... It would've fuck'd up her marriage & she would've regretted it.. Choose your friends wisely... Not everyone can be put into the "friend" catagory.... The wife made some mistakes --but she realized & rectified those mistakes before they detonated .... Good for her !

Sounds like some priorities are messed up.

and time together can do so much, TK U MLJ LV NV

I agree ahe was wrong to lie and slut around. However for at least 2 months he had no time for her. He couldn't even go to bed or hug or kiss her. Yet when he found out what she was planning he managed to find the time to set her up - be outside the house early and spend the whole evening chasing her. If he had taken that much interest before none of this would have occurred. No BTB or RAAC

It would have been nice if this has been one of those feel good stories about a couple who dodged a bullet, worked out their issues and continued on in a good relationship. Unfortunately, there were a few too many issues that the author never addressed.

First, even though they both agreed that Rob was going to have to work hard the first couple of years, one simply cannot totally ignore their spouse. He appears to be at fault for that. However, the resolution to that is to have a mature discussion about the issues and come to a mutual resolution. That might have happened when he came to the bedroom initially, but she had locked him out.

At that point, they both acted like a couple of children. She made the date with her friend with the prime motivation being getting back at Rob. And he went off the deep end. Instead of heading off to work early to plan his little sting operation, he should have confronted her. He should have explained that he had come to the bedroom to talk to her about their problems and instead of letting him in, she decided to call her friend and make a date to go out trolling for guys. He should have told her if that is what she wanted, he would step aside and let her have her freedom.

Of course, that never happened and she ended up going out. This is where the issues that were never resolved really started to mount. She started out with lying about going out with her sister. That was somewhat understandable given Rob's opinion about Suzie. Rob was a little at fault here in that he never told Lindsey why he really did not like Suzie. If he had, it is doubtful that Lindsey would have made that call.

Now, if she had just gone out in reasonable clothing, had a few drinks with a friend, danced innocently with some guys and then headed back home, if would not have been a big deal. However, she wore sexy underwear that even Rob had not seen (who did she intend to see them?). She changed into sexy clothes at her friends house. This meant that she knew Rob would not have approved of what she was wearing. She took off her wedding rings (I thought only male players did that). And she participated in some pretty heavy necking, which should be way out of bounds for anyone who is married. As far as I am concerned, she cheated on Rob emotionally if not physically.

Rob had to know about all of this. His friend would have reported on the clothing, wedding rings and the necking. When he pulled Lindsey back at the bar, instead of saying they both had some forgiving to do he should have said "I know I contributed to this situation Lindsey and for that I am sorry, but you have some explaining to do about some of your actions tonight before I am comfortable with this marriage continuing on".

If a satisfying discussion about those issues had occurred followed by a tearful hug and forgiveness by all the story would have been much better. Regardless, thank you for writing and please write more.

How did she know he would be at the bar? For all she knew, he was still at work with no idea what she had been up to. Also, I have a feeling she will be very upset if she ever finds out that hubby told his friend to try and get into her pants. He better come clean. Otherwise, a good tale. Well written. Four stars.

BTW, it was a quickie, but I did fuck her in the bedroom before she ran. Check her pussy, Rob.

Tom

I agree with those who thought that Lindsey's actions after the phone call to Suzie were questionable at best, as well as those of Rob' s to set up the "sting" operation were over the top.

That being said, for me (as a man); Lindsey's actions after the call, to lie about where she was going, to wear sexy understandings (that she had never worn for Rob), to hide her sexy outfit to be changed into later, to wear plain clothes as she left from home, to change to meeting at Suzie's instead of being picked-up at her house by Suzie's to further hide what she was up to, and last but certainly (in my estimation) was removing her wedding rings; showed me that she was going out to "Hang" with her slut of a friend from her single days looking for some action. Of course continuing the lie that she was single, and just out for the night with a friend "Catching up" on old times.

I could accept that she didn't go through with what she had considered doing, the things that I would have trouble getting past would be all of the lies, fraud, deceiving, and her actions to cover up what she was doing. "I'm sorry, or I apologize, or I'll never do it again wouldn't work for me; because I would now doubt anything & everything she had said or done due to her actions this time. I would now wonder how much of our marriage had also been a lie or fraud and deceit.

She had agreed to something when we married, then when it didn't suit her current needs; she decided to Hang with "Single Slut Suzie" to find some "action". I think that Rob should not let her come back right now, give her some time to think about her actions. Then let her try to explain what she did and why, and ask her if she wants to remain married and be faithful or go back to being single and unattached so she can have "Fun". This is the black or white choice she would have to make, no grey areas-no nuances. One or the other, or nothing (Just one man's opinion, your's can & will vary).

Thank you for your time & consideration.

Face it, married women can go out clubbing wearing their rings and it will NOT stop guys from asking them to dance. And sexy undergarments are only important if you either want someone to see them or need them to feel sexy yourself - and why would you need to feel sexy just to have "fun"...?

And as for the alcohol... either she wanted to get drunk so she had an excuse for behaving badly or maybe getting drunk WAS the behaving badly part - but she wasn't worried, though she should be, about what she might have done WHILE drunk...

And if she WASN'T drunk what was her excuse for letting what was happening happen...?

The hubby's actions were questionable too... while if he'd done nothing, an unknown could have been the one hitting on her (and maybe succeeding)... but to give instructions to seduce his wife ALMOST to the point of actual sex...? How stupid is that unless you have 100% faith in the person you sicced on your spouse...?

It all comes down to communication. They were both wrapped up in their own little worlds . Lindsey didn't talk to him until she was totally fed up. He was too wrapped up in his work. God gave us two ears and one mouth for a reason. 5 stars. For all the negative nannies.

I dont care if she has granny underware on underneath, They still have to come off.

Looks like the fucking taliban found the loving wives section of literotica.

In the last few years a few fucking morons have appeared on this site who seem to think that all women have to be perfect in every way, obviously the have been cheated on and can't/won't get over it.

Truth is that people are fucked up, men and women and nobody is perfect.

Harry in va must have the smallest cock in the world and been laughed at more than once buy a woman, or he is some kind of religious nut job on a crusade, unfortunately he seems to have plenty of sycophantic like minded fuckwits who agree with him.

shame they found this site and wish they would just fuck off

If Rob was so busy how did he have the time to organise and then watch the set-up. Why didn't he arrange a night out with his wife to make up for all the time he neglected her rather than stalk her.

Lindsey lied to him and did cheat:

- she kissed a man with tongue all evening during the dances and in the taxi

- she let a man feel her breast through her clothes unbutton her blouse and then feel her naked breasts and nipples in the car

- she kissed him again in the apartment and let him feel her ass and thighs

Hardly the actions of a loyal wife. They should dump each other.

if he doesnt give his work adequate time then he could lose his job and promotion opportunities however if he doesnt keep his wife satisfied there is always someone else to do the job for him.. i would just give her a smaller spending allowance with the stipulation that i would work less see if she can handle having less to go shopping with

He has all the time to follow his wife and her friend Suzie ...but none when it came about to be with his wife alone for a while ..... wrong priorities ....

Any couple that has an agreement to bot have a relationship so they can get rich is a pair of idiots that should just get divorced. What is the point of a marriafe like that? To be lonely even when together? Sick.

Asks 'friend' Tom to try to seduce wife but not go all the way. He trusts his friend. Friend agrees but once he met wife was not going to stop. True it was stupid idea. Even more true, Tom was not his friend. Even after wife had decided to not do anything Tom kept trying and wouldn't have taken NO for answer. Tom only stopped because she started screaming, only went after her because he was worried what she would tell husband and or he figured he would take another shot at her away from others

SUMMATION-HUSBAND WAS STUPID! TOM WASN'T HIS FRIEND!!!

another wimp moron + cheating slut tale.

Thanks. I say it's worth 5 Stars. Doesn't matter to me what others think. Reminds me of another story by this author about a man who got stabbed in the back by his so-

called "friend". Which reminded me why I don't have friends. Used to. My really good friends all either died in Vietnam 50 years ago, or got lost from me after the war. My friends later, either turned their backs on me when I was down, or stabbed me in the back to better themselves. Such is life.

How could he ever trust her again? As the saying goes, "Once a cheater, always a cheater". If she starts her up relationship again with Suzie, he can expect her to cheat again, and maybe go all the way this time.

... long well thought out objective comments. Muirmadra ended Jack and Emma with profound thoughts applicable to Lindsey and Rob's self-created dilemna.

I cannot understand why this story has lowest score of all your submissions.

I doubt, check that, I am certain I have no insights about the couple other comments have not covered.

Two points struck me. His bosses created the problem by greedily assigning work from their competitors to Rob. The firm saw way to reap great financial rewards, but hid from Tom they were farming him out to do all that extra work. Furthermore they did not share the wealth with Rob. He believed his firm was desperately counting on him to fulfill contracts they had been awarded. Indeed out of loyalty to his firm Rob had turned down numerous lucrative offers from competitors that he could have stuckin his own pocket. The partners of his firm were greedy and betrayed Rob's loyalty.

Greed and deceit! Reads like Rob could strike out on his own or or negotiate with other firms for much higher compensation and less work.

Tom first agrees to help his friend, but severely limit physical contact. Then at last moment, too late to change plan and when Rob is obviously to distraught to realize Tom's intent, he weasels out pleading he has no control over his lust. He had met Lindsey, lusted after her, and planned to take advantage of the couple's emotional turmoil.

Brief sequel.

Rob learns of his firm's betrayal. He becomes independent contractor. A couple of days a month he will have to work late but he quadruples his income and halves his workload. Absent Rob, firm loses reputation and business.

Creditors take over. His promise to Tom about all being good between that at work is kept as Rob has left. Tom becomes unemployed when firm folds. Seeks employment with Rob. Interview with HR hiring executive for Rob's firm is brief. In her new capacity Lindsey accepts his resume and states ''We are not hiring at this time''

But this one sucked. His wife has issues.

Shouldn't get back with her until she sees a counseler.

And what about his "friends" ? Fuck Tom. Don't need people like that in your life.

No sympathy for any one but Rob. Just trying to do his best for his wife.

Ahould be soon to be ex qife.

Come on Guys You gotta love it! It's not hard to work out? She nearly got the Bums Rush but all the stars were aligned in Her favor! But in the future She better watch her husband He ain't no fool? Anyway that's my Comment 5 ★ WOOF! Oh story is Great.

That was close. Lindsey was borderline cheating, but couldn't do it because she loved Rob. Should never have gone out with the whore Suzi. Saved just in time.

A guy uses his workmates to set a trap? And these workmates go for it?

How old these characters are supposed to be, 17? 18? 19?

These descriptions are descriptions of teenagers and adolescents not of mature people.

If you are married for a few years and you have to worry what your wife would do while you are toiling away, then what is going to happen 10, 15, 20 years down the road?

One should cut losses, find a mature woman that is emotionally stable. Believe me, those women exist, there are plenty of them. If you are stuck on a bar-hopping immature woman then you deserve all that is coming to you. When I was dating in my 20ies and when I realized I was dating immature female, I dumped them immediately without any second conversation. Immature women are not worth anything, they are not even good in bed other than for gymnastics.

This is the reason why I think the whole premise of this story is flawed. A serious working professional will not waste his time spying on a woman that is supposed to be his support. The professional work is serious enough itself without any additional emotional distractions.

The suspense of the story is good but the premise is flawed.

There was just something off about this story. There was a similar odd failure of logic in Deceptions Abound by the same author. In that story the wife drugs and tries to have the husband bound and held immobile so she can have sex with another man in front of him. The next day they reconcile and everything is cool.

In this story, the very first night she goes out without him she is making out with another guy, they are groping one another, he's unbuttoning her shirt in the car, his hand is in her bra and he's tweaking her nipples. What would happen on the third night of the fourth night? Would she be pulling a train?

Same end result. Hours later, reconciliation. Way too easy

Bebop has a valid point . But I'm Mr. Happy and I believe in bluebirds, butterflies and happy endings.

I like happy endings. I saw mistakes in the writing but they were not fatal or so big as to change my mind about the bones of this story so I gave it five stars.

Every coin has two sides.

Comments reflected that.

Rob neglected his marriage big time.

Lin had every right to be angry.

Her actions could be excused

up to changing her clothes.

That's where she took off her ring.

That is not neglecting her marriage.

That's leaving it behind.

That's why reconciliation isn't longer right.

2 out of 5 from me.

Women always need to be entertained. Why is it if the husband is working hard for them both that she cannot dig in and do the same, but no, woe is me my husband neglects me. Cucks always say their women become strong and independent when fucking others, but yet the wife cannot be strong and independent if hubby is working? Wifey needs to have attention and cannot be her own person. Screwed up logic that shows up in many lw stories I guess

This author writes such creepy stories…not a single human being behaves like a normal person…

sissy

I enjoyed the story. A good cautionary tale about taking for granted your spouse. Though some thoughts did occur to me while reading it.

-

Why is he following Lindsey in the first place? What about his project? If it was important enough to ignore his wife then why is he not still focusing on it? If he had taken some time, not a lot, to focus on his wife, he would not be in this conundrum. But desperate men do desperate things.

-

I find it incredulous that he could hear anything via that transmitter due to the how, apparently, loud the music was. Rob getting a friend of his too "fake" seduce Lindsey seems, to me, to be a stretch. Again, one could chuck it up to the idea of desperate times, desperate actions.

-

When and where did Rob get the small transmitter he placed in Lindsey's purse? When did he buy one to begin with or did he always have one? If so why?

-

Overall a good tale, very enjoyable, I thought the story was nicely written. Good job by the author.

Pasqual

So, I guess women don't have demanding jobs and can't understand when their husbands do. What are they like five years old. Pay attention to me now, or ELSE!. Women feel bored and unappreciated and the only thing they can think about doing is going out and fucking another man. Talk about shallow and selfish.

What a slut. She had already went way too far. Ditch that bitch and get away from her and her whore friend. No man could be that damned stupid.

Meh

У бабы недостаток эмоций и переизбыток энергии.и она начинает половые танцы с бубном

Umm that reconciliation was too easy. They have problems in their marriage. Big ones and it isn't just one sided. But she crossed a line. She let Tom seduce her at the club, got talked into going to Suzie's apartment (tipped over the edge by Suzie's lies of observing Rob's alleged adultery), and then got very close to sex. Tom is not a friend. He would have totally screwed her. She resisted him and ran into the bedroom, and as she was changing (no confused readers she did not change to have sex with Tom, wake up) tried to make q play for him again until she said "I love him (Rob)" and ran out of the apartment. I get that the husband broke his own wedding vows of cherish and honor by putting his job first and ignored her warnings and wants. That is not good. And in real life that certainly leads to affairs. And yes she lied and got suckered into Suzie's scheme to crack their marriage, but she went way past the line. Clearly she doesn't trust that Rob loves her. Heck at the end, she thought she lost him because he took a minute to speak. She didn't trust him when Suzie lied about seeing Rob with another woman. But now he doesn't trust her. She was very close to falling for Tom's seduction. Would like to think Ned would put a stop to it, but seems iffy. "With friends like these ..." Rob has been oblivious yo her concerns, but she just showed that she is capable of being seduced and may not remain faithful in the future. Honestly this is solvable with a lot of communication, time and effort. They both need marriage counseling. They both have issues to work out with themselves and each other. But it wouldn't be easy. What she did is ultimately forgivable but not excusable. He will have a hard time coping and dealing with the memories of what he saw and feared. This will take serious work to fix their marriage. If he is so focused on his job still, they won't make it. If she cannot clearly understand and own up to whatbshe did wrong, they won't make it. She did stop it. Twice. Once before she ran into the bedroom to change (again not for sex people!) and then again when Tom caught her in a state of partial dress. If she had succumbed. Their marriage woukd be over. But she didn't. Still doesn't make it easy to re-establish trust. Will she remain faithful? Probably. She is ashamed and did atop it beforehand. And realized Suzie was intentionally trying to put a wedge between them. Will he actually change his priorities and stop neglecting his wife? Probably. But will he fall into an old rut? Hopefully not. If you don't invest in your marriage then watch it wither and die. Both sides need to be actively engaged with one another but also understanding when other priorities do come into play. Marriage is complex. Communicate and show affection to let it grow and survives life's curveballs.

He banned her from seeing her dodgy so so called friend and she phones her up. Really, Really. I know he is working and working hard but at least he was in the house with her and not in the office. Why did the tracker mislead him? (ok I speed read it) This will give him trust issues on several levels.

Agree wholeheartedly. Don't understand the commenters who want to burn Lindsey. But it is clear that while reconciliation is possible (for both of them), their marriage has real issues including lack of trust not just on her part about his career priority but also on his part regarding her brush with infidelity and what exactly she did, how far, and why. That takes work and time and communication. Instead story is cut short and it just ends, with "all is forgiven". Too simplistic.
