@Nottheonlyone i do appreciate the good wishes, in actuality I am living a wonderful life, with boyfriend, money enough, president of a social club, 4th term , etc. All of which was made possible by the cheater, and I have written him a heartfelt letter of gratitude, several years ago. But right is still right, and wrong will Always be wrong, and whining about how "poor you" was cmisunderstood will Always, ever, make my blood boil, so please stop projecting on my behalf! I worked in a shipyard amongst 20,000 men for 13 years, the way it is Always about the cheater never ceased to amaze!

@Nottheonlyone What exactly does a marriage consist of, if not mental connection...just ask anyone who perhaps the physical side has faded due to age, infirmity, but the mental bond remains strong. He has removed himself from his partner in a way that is Devastating! A one-night stand, while pathetic, is in no way the major betrayal taking your emotions "on the road " is.....and of course his partner wasn't feeling abandoned, alone, bereft.......oh, nooooooooo......if he could " recognize his emotional needs", and had any respect whatsoever for his Partner, he would have worked on things With her. The thing that really tops it all off is his expecting our support for his selfish, self-centered actions, and whining about it!

Once Bernie dropped out, I realized just how scurrilous the stuff was about Hillary ( no fan, but the orange alternative horrified/s me!). I must have been pretty annoying, because one morning I woke up to find a pic of me from my private files all over FB with the word "PEDOPHILE" across it. Plus several threatening emails directly to my home! One gal claimed she was going to "berry you because I have 3 degrees from Barkley". I felt proud! This went on for several days as i publically called out these shenanigans as the work of saboteurs. I feel I am pretty well qualified to spot them...the really dangerous ones are of course not the obviously outrageous ones, like calling me (And Hillary!) Pedophiles, but the ones making "might be true" claims, over & over....beware when you get that nagging feeling !

@Captain_Feelgood. they "wanted" to come here to escape intolerable confditions, like no food or water.....which probably was caused by USA meddling in the first place.

@Captain_Feelgood. in charge of that stuff, are ya? Whatever nationality your family was, I doubt they liked being told how to dress, eat, worship...do you not think it is horribly hard to have to uproot yourself from things you knew all your life, for an unknown place, and be criticized for looking/talking/dressing/eating/ worshipping "different"="wrong"? on top of that stress? They say "moving" (just in the same country) is one of the 3 biggest stressors in anyone's life...cut some slack here!

They were devout Catholics with 3 young children in the home, divorce not an option. Honorable people, after her death he worked 3 jobs, at age 67, 7 days a week, to pay off the debt in full......after getting it down to "only" $900,000 by pointing out he would be long dead if they continued to dun him for the full 3 million. Honorable, good people are the ones that get screwed, and "wriggle-outers" hurt them and all of us!

@Simon1, @SkotlandSkye the husband & wife were both steadily employed at good jobs with excellent wages, and time+1/2 overtime was a way of life for the man. After 5 re-occurrences of first ovarian and then related cancers, after 12 years, all their life insurance was cashed in, their house was remortgaged, and the 20% not covered by "excellent" health insutance was just over $3,000,000.00.
