Great story loved it in a lot of your stories the husband and wife are able to work through their problems. But sometimes divorce is the only answer and is this case it was....As always well written and I enjoied it
Well there is a reason I think you are one of the best here. and Stories like this one prove it.
Unless someone wants to say kicking the guy out of the house was 'harsh', no violence, no overdue 'pain', just a husband getting his life together. Maybe with Tiffany???
Personally I love how she 'wouldn't deny' him if he demanded sex.. AND how she thinks he's having an affair. Great stuff. Love her pity.
And the comment on revenge sex ... cool.
now I know people ALWAYS want a part two...heck even me at times . The only one I would want is her side. Just to see why she was so selfish!
But great still. Keep it up!
HDK you have done it again! Great short story, I don't know how you do it; however we sure love the way you do put them together.
Great writing.
George
great ... one of my favorite authors ... dont ever stop ... roadbird salutes you ... this story says it all
Yeah, I think he did the right thing. For starters, I'm a romantic that likes happy endings, but this one doesn't cut it. It isn't because she was having sex with another man, it is because the total lack of respect she had towards her husband. Cutting off sex and wanting to make him beg for it and giving him sloppy seconds is just so cruel.
Cheers!
Can't say I blame him! Would have liked to hear her side of the story with the excuses. But she got what she deserved even after she signed the document. You would have thought she might get cold feet after that, but she didn't love or respect her husband. So her undoing was her own. To sad. All she had to do was communicate with him before all the cheating started and things could have turned out different.

good story,but hubby to laid back.to easy going when finding wife whoring around.
Nah, he isn't too laid back or too easy going, he's calculating and resourceful. If he had had burst, if he had called her on her cheating before he did, he would have had to give he half of everything. He waited and let her hoist he self on her own petard. He wasn't too laid back; he was smart.
This was a fantastic story! the husband handled himself much better than i would have been, but his outcome was better. I can testify to the fact that the cheating spouse always project their faults on their spouses...that's the way it was with me! good showing...no part two needed. Looking forward to your next story!
Divorced and Loving it!!!
Very good!!
What can I say, that has not already been said a few hundred
times, by those more articulate than I.
As ole Bill Shakespeare (wonder if he was named after the
Rod & Reel outfit??) said, "brevity is the soul of wit."
And he was so correct. (Uh...I think that was said by
Polonius, in Hamlet? -- damn, that Google is good stuff)
Meanwhile, back at the ranch...we were still reading your
stuff....keep it up (the writing too)....thanks, Dave
Very nice. A very proper conclusion. Hoist on her own petard! I loved it.
about everything I wanted to say.
He wasn't too laid back, the marriage had reached a low point for both parners. Because of this he was still deeply caring for his wife, but the emotions had fallen pretty low. A big part of that was the wife cutting him off the way she did.
The husband was willing to work to save it. With the wife, she tucked hubby et al into a "been there, done that" drawer and pretty much forgot about it. The only thing she seemed willing to fight for was the respect. That was the respect she had tossed out where her husband was concerned.
The violence wan't over done, but it was called for. Nice touch that he'd been going to a gym and was up for the task.
Some minor problems with editing, they always stand out in such a well written piece. Make sure someone else reads it before you post. After you brilliant writers write we can no longer see the trees in the forest.

You really hit the infidelity nail right on thehead when you wrote:
"I realized a kiss was as much, more actually, than I wanted from her. I am not the kind of guy to share my woman, at least not willingly. Since she was fucking a different guy, I no longer felt she was mine. I also felt no allegiance or loyalty to her. That bond had been broken."
Personally, I can't see any other realistic reaction from either gender in this situation where the infidelity is very deliberate and ongoing.
The cheater is the one who decides to break the 'bond' . That the former partner decides to take some action because of that is also quite reasonable.
Great story, and also great perception of the human mind.
All you gotta do is write some more for us.
You are appreciated for your time, talent and consequential theme!
Like an oasis in this desert - you deliver needed reality and get our respect.
Much Much More please - with Best Regards
you are on my favorites list. a nice story well done and all that. YOU ARE GOOD!!
You gave away the outcome with the opening paragraph, and still it was a great read. At the end, the husband thought his wife's actions towards him were cruel to the point of being sadistic. Yet even with this, I was uncomfortable with her leaving with nothing.
Sure, she signed away her rights to their house and savings, and yes, she originated the idea. Still, I wanted some longer discussion between these two. The word that came to my mind as the story ended was "magnaminity". I wanted the husband to be magnanimous...instead he did stoop (though ever so slightly) towards her level.
What would she have done to him had she caught him cheating? Would she have given a penny? I don't think so. That doesn't mean I think he should stoop to her level. It's always a matter for evaluation, but we don't know how much they had, what kind of salaries they had, what support systems they had.
She can probably survive in a modest 1 br apt on what she makes if she decides to live a simple lifestyle or she can tie up with someone who appreciates her sexual appetite and 2 can live more cheaply than one. Maybe she could have purchased some of their wealth back with just the slightest indication of remorse. I'm on the fence on this point.
was reasonable under the circumstances.
As a woman I would normally tend towards 50-50 or even more to the woman if she was not employed.
I mostly agree with your comments, but you are wrong here.
How did he 'stoop to her level'?
Did he cheat on her?
Did he deny her sex because of a lover?
Did he denegrate her to others?
Did he treat her as a fool?
Was he a raving hypocrite?
Hmmm, not even one 'YES'?
So he never even started down to anywhere.
Her own arrogance put her in the position in which she found herself.
She broke the bond!
I was logged in when I posted that comment below.
It is NOT anonymous!
Each time you post a story HDK, you always get the comment from me that the stories can't get better. however, they always DO.
I loved this one where you made reference to the typical slutwife cheat that says" oh honey it was only sex and your'e the only one i'll ever love" shit that is standard in most "Icaught her cheating" type tales.
Well done. and thanks for writing this great story.
It's great to read a story by one of the few authors on this site that deal with what really happens with a cheating spouse. It is disgusting to read stories where a spouse screws around on their mate. What do people find erotic about destroying their marriage? I think the only readers that approve of those stories are either single or are cheating on their spouse already.
Thanks for being realistic and not having wimpy husbands in your stories.
Brian handled it pretty well, I thought. His cooler thinking wound up costing her more.
I am always curious as to how a wife could screw around on a man that she professed to love for 25 years. Bonnie, for some reason, had no respect or love for Brian. Maybe it was always like that but never brought out before?
Keep 'em coming HDK, we love 'em!
Excellent story. You're raising the bar awfully high you know. What I really liked about this story was the absence of cliches - no beatings, no fucking at the gym,or the other guys wife - how wonderfully refreshing.
I disagree that you went a little lowball on the property issue. Bonnie had every chance avaialble to protect her financial position. Hell, she could have asked for a divorce right there and then ion the lawyers office. She didn't and she paid a price.
Once again WELL DONE!
Here I was expecting the usual revenge fuck type story and what I got instead was a rather satisfying piece of work that didn't lend itself to cliched plots. I simply cannot add anything more to the comments than what has been written.
I commented before and it takes nothing away from the story, but some of you have commented that this is a "fair" settlement. It may be what she deserved, but how on earth can you consider "fair" a 100-0 "split"?
She apparently put some good years into the marriage and the children. She was pretty vile at the end, but, come on, fair it is not.
Bonnie got what was coming to her because she was dealing with a real man, who refused to bow. He shawed backbone on getting his life back.
I comment when the need hits me, be it a good, or bad story. If it moves me enough I do so.If you check, most of my comments are made here all of witch are positive I might add!!! As one comment stated, you have raised the bar, all I can add to this is Shine On HDK!!!
Thank you for all the effort and time taken to put out these works that intoxicate us and keep us begging for for.
Thank you.
Another of your stories that I enjoyed reading. For the critics that say she should have gotten something after 25 years of marriage. She did,,, more loyalty than she gave,,, more fidelity than she gave,,, more love than she gave,,, and yes of course more sex than she gave,,,. Hey folks, it is a story and the results are what HDK wanted, and many of us loved. I hope to be as successful in my writings.

He didn't totally screw Bonnie over, she still has her job and company pension. With most people that is where most of the money is anyway. He could have made her and her lover both lose their jobs. I think it was a very equitable solution to her cheating, and trying to dominate his happiness.
I thought this was another excellent story. I am more partial to the stories that have a happy ending but with Bonnie's attitude, she got what she deserved. Any woman stupid enough to continue cheating after signing a document like that, especially since she did it just hours after the signing, desrves nothing. I would have liked to have seen the aftermath drawn out a little more. Maybe telling what happened with the lover and his wife. Still, it was a very good story. I look to see if there is a new story from Hardaysnight every afternoon when I come in. Waiting for the next one.
"what if..." the guy in the "Goofy and my Wife" story would have done the same thing in this story. What I like about HDK stories he gives us the "what if" from all perspectives. Very good writer. Thank you.
Sir HDK
This was a very good story. I love it when the payback doesnt leave a physical mark. It would be interesting to come back to Bonnie in a year say at the Midnight Bar and Grill and see what has taken place in her life since then. A great story with no actual sex what so ever. Well done.
I don't normally read the cheating spouse genre, but very much enjoyed the story and was interested in the way he got 'even'. (I was taken in by the 'Loving Wives' category -- Should have been 'Non-Loving Wives'...)
For those of you who said she had it coming, think about this... did they both get what they deserved. He said he had 25 years of good marriage, but then he threw it away by not confronting her when he found out about her infidelity. Instead he brooded and schemed. Could she have been as wild with the hubby as the boyfriend?
Very nice: A real story, with character development and plot. Not like the mountains of trash we find all over the web. And revenge is so sweet.
At the risk of being immodest, if you like revenge, and you certainly seem to, try my "The Last Sashay." The ending tickles me (it ought to, I wrote it).
Anyway, I'm not writing to advertise myself, but to thank you. Enjoyed your story immensely.
Thanks,
mDyne (matthew)
you let the affair go on for so long after you found out.she fuck over you as her hubby,and you just let it go on.your theory were not that important.you could use the theory on the ending.
Very nice - they've moved on to living as roommates when he finds out why.
But how many wives out there that aren't cheating pull the same trick on their husbands as Bonnie - using sex as a bargaining chip and turning the marriage into a one-way deal?
In any case Brian plays it cool and changes his orientation to focus on his needs; he lays the groundwork for a life and then when alls ready, guides Bonnie into a trap of her own making.
Ahhh, sweet justice; with the extra icing of Bob's wife calling her an OLD whore.
Really liked your story.I like stories where the slut wife gets what she deserves.She was one stupid bitch.Good story.
I love your stories. It was good to see that Bonnie got some of the pain she gave Brian. I do think she deserves the loss of money as she was at fault. Like some others I would like a follow up about a year later to see how their lives turn out.
I really enjoyed ur story.It was well written and the fact that there were consequences for the whore wife made it that much better.U might have guessed, but i like stories that are real life like, and in life there is a price to pay for cheating.There are consequences.I really like they way he went about it. Stupid bitch got what she deserved.If u like stories with revenge on the wife for cheating than i suggest u read this one.
I LOVED THIS STORY!!! I really liked how the author dived so deep into the main character's thoughts. and the way he handled his wife's infidelity was great! He was so clever and manipulative. how he ended up using his wife's hipocracy and stupidity against her in the end. a great story I loved it
One more great story from one of the best authors on the site.Vengeance is mine saith the Lord,but it's nice for us mere mortals to get in first!!
Thanks for a story where the guy ends up on top and has some values. Generaly a loving wife story the guy ends up in deep shit eating someones elses come and wearing panties.
Love the characters of husbands in your story. They are very plausible, and rational. Like all your stories a lot. Sometimes, though, the plots seem complex enough to justify sequences. Have you thought about short novels? Right on!
Very well orchestrated ... everything came together neatly, all wrapped up in a nice bow.
I'm not sure that everyone appreciates how consisely you construct your stories: the off-hand dialogue, the way you presage the ending without tipping it off, the intricately interwoven plot.
I bow to the master!
Regards, DJ
This rates as one of the top stories that I have read. I have read this story at least ten times.
The methodology used for pay back is out of this world !!
Thanks for a great story. I have read all of your stories several times.
A story that was not only well written, but showed true emotions, actions and the complications that results from these actions.
Each and every action in this story had reason and reasoning behind it. No one did anything that was out of character for that person.
Each person followed a logical course of thought as the events enfolded. People acted as would be expected to act under subjective thinking and chance. Events took place, and in these events people assessed and took actions… just as normal people would.
A excellent piece of writing, which was easy to follow and well thought out. Unfortunately one can only give you a 100 as a score. I would like to have given you more. Thank you very much for sharing it with us!
Excellent prose in HDK's compact style. Believable characters acting realistically in everyday situations give the story credibility. The husband's approach to the wife's infidelity was nicely handled, and it shows what happens when love dies in a marriage. He stopped caring about his unfaithful wife, stopped putting her first, and started making his own desires and wants uppermost. In its own way, this change in attitude is far more devastating than some spiteful beating because it is calm, cool, calculated and unrelenting in the sly disrespect that he shows her. It's politely correct yet almost malevolent, and it shows true distaste for the wife's immorality.
<P>
It was fascinating watching the wife resort to the tricks that time and experience had taught her. Unfortunately, the game had changed with new rules that made the old lessons no longer viable. Her floundering about trying to re-assert control while refusing to see the hints that her husband knew that she was sleeping around is superb authorship.
<P>
The story plays out nicely, and the wife's unfaithfulness reaps a bonus reward in the wreckage of another marriage. It's a painful ending but one that is justly deserved. Nicely told, HDK. I thank you for an entertaining tale.
I loved this story because, in other stories the man is humiliated and dominated, here, the husband used his mind and punish the cheating wife and taught her a lesson.
this story rocks
Should be able to rate a story 6 once a year or something.
This story felt like a sweet cover drive of a new hard cricket ball off the middle of and old favourite bat, crisp, firm and elegant. (Shades of Cardus there?) The best, cleaverest and gentlest revenge story yet, how do you do it?
The bit about the agreement to give up everything if caught was about as unbelieveable as it is possible to be.
Bonnie doesn't trust the husband but brings the boyfriend home to their own bed without a thought?
Sorry, it doesn't wash. While well written, it is the same old plot. Husband catches wife and sets her up.
I just don't see wonderful here, it's average at a stretch.
the wife was lead down the path and trap sprung in nice manner. satisfying ending, even [her] loss of community property.
You have exonerated yourself with this tale of a man who kept his balls.
a happy ending for him and the loose ends accounted for her and bob
if wife gets away with it for months on end, why wouldn't she believe her spouse was stupid and clueless? she did, to her ultimate loss. well done and nicely executed, where she followed right along and over the cliff.
Interesting that some people might feel that this
is an unfinished symphony.
The cheating scum got just what they should. I really could not turn away well written!!
At last...a story with a base in reality, a plausible plot and ending! Far and away superior to hundreds of other stories written by "authors" who have no concept of what marraige is really about, and what should be done when it comes to an end because of an infidelity. Regards....
Actually the woman was probably suffering from some kind of mental illness but she definately wasnt interested in getting it treated. She fucked at work, she was/is a whore. Trash is trash, always throw out the trash.
cheating in their marriage has to have some time of mental illness or disturbance. Totally balanced and rational people dont behave in those ways.
When it comes to a person's mental state and/or their behavior you don't know what you are talking about.
I do not see what the hubby did as 'revenge' at all. All he did was what he could to protect himself from a greedy domineering cum slut wifey who in fact had to have always been the way he finally found her to be. If anything the lead male character was a bit dense, too dense to find a clue from the time even before he married the skank. Yes, skank and not a slut. Different definitions apply.
I've read it again and I think this is the best line ever, to describe the way some women think the marriage is.
" You won't feel like sex until I run a marathon, wash the car, mow the yard, find a cure for cancer, and lick your clit, all while standing on my head. "
Author , thank you again for LOL
This is the very best story on the site. Thankyou!!!!!
i had forgotten how he set her up and the completeness of her defeat. wounderful. consequences, for each of them.
You have to be a complete wimp of a man to take pleasure in revenge.
Big Guy 323 "hit it right on the head" -
"Terrible. Just Terrible. The level of disrespect was so great that NOTHING could save them.
ANY MAN who would let such an affront pass is a complete wash out as a man. This is ESPECIALLY true if the guy really does have a smaller than average penis.
NO humor in this, none at all..."
Harddaysknight you tell a great story but NO MAN would go back to this Worthless Cunt! Sorry the ending missed .. try again!
I do not get that last anons comment. Did he (or she) even read the story? I think not. Thank you for your work. I wish I could but I cant. So I just enjoy. Especially about the ass. Jim
I have read and enjoyed several of your stories. I will be dumping my whore of a wife in the near future and can use any ideas that will make that event a revenge fest she will never forget. Demystified Guy
you always end your stories too soon....I'd like more details of how the wife was made to suffer.
...would have been a nice addition. Still like the story and the resolution
I loved every word of this one! I am definately into torching the cheating slut. This story was very well written I enjoyed it to the MAX!! R.T.
Methinks Brian really didn't love his wife from the time he first saw her with Bob. Note he only physically manhandled Bob as part of his revenge, but let the affair continue unabated with no intervention for a long time.
I knew after the 1st paragraph it was an old folks story so I didn't read it and gave it a 1 star
A man remaking himself

One of your better ones.
This is a excellent, hyper, super revenge story. I prefer the without murder, selling wife to Central American bordello,etc. stories. Simple the best with Tyna! However for me are the best, best, when the husband gets the 100% custody and the exwife has to pay the children alimoney, I read some.
I found a little mistake in this story. I would know their future after the divorce.
cause you cant come in, WE HAVE A PRE-NUP AND ITS WIN WIN WIN FOR ME. TK U MLJ LV NV
The thing I didn't like was he just let her keep on fucking around till he found out the dude was married with kids, that was unforgivable but fucking around on him was okay. then he was a willing cuckold till someone elses kids were involved. Man was he a pussy. But he did fuck her over in the end. 5 stars

Listen to blewdogg, expert on living the "cuck life"
So many crappy stories coming out now. This is a great story complete and told in 2 pages and is sad, funny and plausible. I realize HDK is the master, but can't some of the writers try to follow this model in their work? Thanks
Think about it. She had to realize that 25 years she was married to a man she didn't respect. Once or twice, thrilling and exciting. Ongoing - no respect - not now or, for the 25 years he was there for her and the family.
So glad he didn't justify her conduct or consider reconcilliation. She turned out to be a low class slut and a whore but - she'll find a few more men to fuck.
Fortunately, he heard her voice (her conviction and disdain for his stupidity) and comments and with the ongoing attempt at lying and being misleading it just made it easier and more bearable for him to grow into a man who totally loathed, was disgusted with her and couldn't stand the thought of being near her.
In this regard it worked to his favor, his mental stability. Very realistic.
Thanks!
A excellent example of the Modern Figaro Type Stories. The story is almost perfect, only the lack of the epiloge is a small mistake in it. BTW 5 stars.
The violance for a cheating whore (against the loverboy or wife) is a big mistake in the modern days. The juiry punishes same level as the other violance. 50 years ago the love violance or love murder were punished with shorter prison. I think the Modern Figaro Type Revenge Stories and the Romantic Revenge Stories help widening other type answer for such a life situation. The violance revenge stories which shows near life situation with consequence (prison) or other as DG Hear's excellent story "Another Chance" also can be good example.
