Thread: Following Moe's WHYT

My best friend of 20+ years was just dumped by her boyfriend of 15 years. Feel sorry for her....yes but then...not so much.
Problem is SHE'S MARRIED & has been for 26 years. She informed me about this relationship 3 years ago when she wanted me to go with them on vacation or to cover-up for her. I refused. Sorry but the solution to an unhappy marriage is to seek therapy or get a divorce & NOT have an affair. My husband cheated on me so he is now my EX-husband. This guy used to do work on my car until I found this out & now I go elsewhere.
She plans on leaving her husband in the Fall when her youngest goes to college. She doesn't have a job & doesn't have any money saved. All she wants is to be a wife & mother. She is clueless as to how hard is it to be single. I'm living proof that it is hard but can be done.
Today she told me she called him to talk, I told to to stop all communication & he was cold & distant to her.
Now she wants me to call him for her to ask why he dumped her. Is this "crazy train" thinking or am I insane?

Oh her husband knew about this for about 8 years. He was suspicious so he tapped their phones. He did think they had broken-up though. Now she had to tell him that is was going on all along.
Get this...she talked to her b/f's daughter to have her ask him why he dumped her. That is when the pop hit the fan because it is a small town & now everyone knows.
My pity is reserved for her kids & grandkids.
I told her the same thing though; he got cold feet.

I know this will sound judgemental...heck...it is judgemental...but I believe cheaters deserve whatever happens to them!
