Click hereFor all her legal skill, Patricia's pretty transparent, at least to me. I could see in her eyes that she was trying on counter arguments, testing them out, seeing which might work. And then I saw when she realized that it was really over. It was like a light turned off in her eyes.
*
Once Patricia decided not to fight it, the divorce went quickly. We did the usual horse trading--her jewelry for my tools and TV, her furniture for my partially-restored Mustang. In the end, we sold the house, split everything down the middle, and saved a lot of money on lawyers.
The thing about divorce is that, even when it's over, it's not over. I still see Patricia a lot--at our kids' birthdays, anniversaries, Christmases. Sometimes, she brings a date, and I usually have a woman on my arm. For the last year or so, it's been the same woman, and I can tell by the look in Patricia's eyes that she knows what that means.
I try not to gloat, but sometimes my willpower...well, it can be a little fragile.

c24j6 days agoI liked this better than 'Words'. 'Words' was good, but went only halfway. In 'Words' he destroyed his wife with his words and his psychological prowess, but He just beat up the guy, which was lazy and typical. If he'd destroyed them both with targeted logic, the story would have been a masterpiece. As presented, it was interesting but lacking.
Your story (to me) was even better, since the affair partner wasn't even acknowledged to any real extent. That partner was just an example of his wife's weakness and lack of love . . . and resolve. So this works.
I was also delighted to see the affair partner destroyed by honesty and targeted logic, as you did in 'Madonna and the Manatee'.
I would like to have read about the wife eventually coming to a complete realization of the truth he offered her, and how she had destroyed something wonderful, and was trying to cover it through hypocrisy . . . It was sort of there, but not definitively. Still, there's some well thought out stuff here. Nice work!!
Anonymous9 days agoVery nice, Bruce, thanks for sharing. Were I still married there are a few lines in there I might steal. Comments about female ego, big asses, bad choices in clothes, that sort of thing. So thanks again, Bruce, very nicely done.

Anonymous17 days agoIt was a good story . . . until the very last line. That one line pushed it over the top to 5*s
