the only thing that the letters had in common was Amy Taylor Andor Josh long they were addressed to friends family Housewives professionals Factory workers doctors lawyers Educators priests preachers and even Facebook buddies among them were the following greetings this is Ben Taylor your spouse sister friend and coworker Amy I know most of you don't know me and I thank you for your time I have information about my loving wife and her friend information that some of you already have and some of you suspect I have decided to remove all doubt and share what I have
most will not like it some will hate it some will hate me but that is the price I am willing to pay please see the first attachment a picture of Amy and Josh appeared on the screen fully clothed yet passionately kissing the caption read foreplay it was taken 3 months ago at her company picnic they thought they were being discreet but my friend was looking for his kids and saw them he took some pictures and gave them to me thinking I would need them what a good friend and I'm not kidding I am ashamed that
after that I became the classic insecure husband I had to find out everything even if it killed me and it did I mean it killed me our promises to each other and to God in front of friends and family were rejected rejected because of lust I hate to think it was love of course I torture myself with the question why could it be because I left her alone for long periods of time while the Navy Seals and I were running covert operations for the CIA no wait I was never in the military and the only
seals I know are the ones sunning themselves in the harbor could it be because I left her alone when I went on business that can't be I don't go anywhere on business and I hardly ever work overtime I get home at 5:30 at the latest every night perhaps it's because I've abandoned all my hobbies run away and left her and the kids alone and I'm having fun myself missing birthdays holidays anniversaries no that's out of the question my only hobby is making her happy she seemed to enjoy little surpris gifts and weekend getaways and had
to keep an eye on me to make sure I didn't go overboard on those occasions and as it turned out fortunately we didn't have time to have kids I wasn't hard on her mentally or physically didn't neglect her always made sure she knew I loved her and spent as much time with her as possible she would never have had time to spend with Josh if she hadn't had a job his being her supervisor made their little meetings during the day quite smooth which was a big benefit when I received solid proof I was taken aback
although it proved to be rather costly and potentially unlawful my intention was not to utilize it in a court of law I decided to go to the court of public opinion proof of what I'm saying about their Affair of course the following attachments are quite obscene so don't open them if you think it will offend you the next two images appeared the first was a photo of Amy taken from a top down angle she was looking up lovingly she's really good at this was the caption the second was a combination of images of them having
doggy style their faces expressed lust and happiness underneath it was the caption what she didn't do for me I'm sorry if I offended you but I wanted to remove all doubt why would I show you these pictures because I filed for divorce using irreconcilable differences rather than adultery that way I could avoid most of the sympathetic looks the occasional smirks from of both sexes who already knew everything and the inevitable conversation you know what I mean all her friends asking if I was sure this was what I wanted if it was a mistake that it
was okay to see a counselor that she was sorry that it would never happen again that we should try to forget the whole thing her mom who I loved as much as my own will not try to make me back down or her dad who I respect but never really loved will try to reason with me I apologize to all of you for being caught up in this story my firmest wish is that you leave me alone this is strictly between me and my wife well not exactly I didn't take Josh into account I owe
an apology to his wife Sunny you didn't have to face that or to your two children what are they now 8 and five maybe he'll change maybe you can forgive him it's your choice and I apologize to his company and its Senior Management for dragging them into the upcoming lawsuit after all all of their meetings took place in their office I think the supply people now know the reason they put a couch in his office just a tip if you give the couch to someone else make sure it is thoroughly cleaned first I know I
can't use pictures but all my attorney has to do is take statements from their co-workers I seriously doubt they would take responsibility for the company all in all and a lot of people are going to lead pretty miserable lives for a while so to wrap up here's why I did it all this way to remove all doubts and not to waste time after all every photo will tell you everything won't it Amy's getting served with divorce papers that should be happening any minute now I'll try to build a new life without her Amy I'm sorry
I wasn't enough for you if you had come to me in the beginning told me you had feelings for someone else and left it would have devastated me but I would have respected your decision instead you were a classic cake eater wanting to keep the cake intact while continuing to eat it well well the cake is gone Amy and I'm pretty sure you're going to have a pretty severe case of indigestion or maybe not maybe you're even glad I found out about it so you and your lover can run off into the sunset as you
wish it's over between us I moved out of the house took what I wanted everything else is yours all contact will be through my lawyer and I am determined never to speak to you again I don't want explanations I don't want to know why I don't want to hear talk of Second Chances because they won't even be considered go ahead Amy leave me alone the entire office heard Amy scream before she slid off her chair in a deep faint colleagues rushed to her Aid unfortunately She fainted at the sight of Josh's picture stabbed into her
from behind mind soon the buzz started after one of the administrators discovered the email and opened it your work practically came to a standstill Josh didn't know what was going on and was surprised to see the HR Director standing in the doorway is it true he asked without any Preamble is that true Josh asked not knowing what he was talking about the director walked in slamming the door behind him is it true that you and Amy are having an affair here in the office Josh turned pale the director thought he was about to faint that
pretty much confirmed it too bad he'd always like Josh you're an idiot do you have any idea how much damage the two of you have done most of our biggest clients are religious Charities how do you think they'd feel if they found out that two of our senior employees were committing lwd acts on company property during business hours he paused Breathing heavily before continuing I've just come from a meeting with Senior Management the CEO called demanding confirmation he's already gotten calls from the Archbishop the president of a Baptist charity and Rabbi fredman things weren't going
so well he was quiet again looking at Josh I want you out of here in 15 minutes you're suspended pending an investigation no wait half an hour Amy's being escorted out of here as we speak and from what I gather you haven't seen yet go to your email and look at what came from her husband he turned without another word and slammed the door again on his way out his fingers trembled as he pressed the button when he got to the picture of him him plunged into her ass he felt physically sick and threw up
in the trash can it was all supposed to be fun and disposable so no one would know anything but they both enjoyed it so much that They carried on promising each other that their spouses would never find out Sunny must be desperate he thought and then it hit him oh my God Sunny he shrieked loudly before dialing her number he was surprised when she answered maybe she hadn't seen it yet she seemed calm is it true she asked in a oldold impassive voice is that true sweetheart Josh you only have one chance to tell me
the truth one If you deny it and I catch you in a lie our conversations will be handled by lawyers is that the truth he felt the walls closing in he really loved her and he also knew he had no choice I'm so sorry honey yes you are but she cut him short I'm packing two suitcases for you your favorite things they'll be in the garage please come and get them while I pick up the kids from school I'd go myself but at least one of us has to be the responsible adult here after all
there are kids involved until I decide what I'm going to do I'll tell them you had to leave on business understand one thing if I decide not to try to save everything you'll be the one to tell them why dad doesn't live here anymore they won't understand it now but they will in a few years I hope it doesn't drive them away from you I'm leaving don't try to contact me if I decide to I'll call you myself there was silence for a few seconds then there was a scream damn you she shrieked hanging up
the phone he stared at the phone like a snake before he dropped it the phone immediately rang he glanced at the name Amy hello he said hesitantly for a minute all he heard was crying and sniffling then she spoke in a voice so quiet he almost didn't recognize her Josh Josh what are we going to do he's my life we were going to try for a baby next year I can't lose him I can't for the 20th time that day he felt a terrible sadness what have they done I feel the same way about sunny
but honestly Amy I don't see a happy ending for either of us if we loved each other we could accept our freedom and be together but even though we liked each other we didn't want to be together you know our job is over if not now then soon Sunny kicked me out and I don't know if we'll ever be together again I'm really sorry about Ben do you think if I talk to him tell him there was no love that we didn't mean it would that help I'm willing to do that no I think the
best thing you can do right now is stay as far away from us as possible every time he looks at you he'll remember what we did he's never been violent but he's never been hurt like this I'll talk to you later if you think it's a good idea he's thought it over carefully no I don't think it's a good idea all they need to do is find out we're communicating and that would undermine everything we're trying to rebuild I'm sorry it's come to this Amy you know I never meant to hurt you I'm sorry I
feel the same way I hope things work out with sunny I know how much you love her I can't believe we were ever that stupid goodbye Josh and good luck I think we're both going to need it Amy went home she knew he wouldn't be there but she hoped Against All Odds same house same Furniture same pictures on the walls but it seemed bare and empty and she knew why a quick inspection of the closets revealed that all of his belongings were gone she looked further entering his shed and workshop they had been cleaned out
all the tools taken away she wondered when he'd had time but then remembered she'd never gone into them everything could have been missing for weeks and she would never have known she looked for a note some message but found nothing she sat down at the kitchen table her usual spot and looked sadly at his empty chair she put her head down on the table and for the first time that day but not the last she cried true to his word Ben never spoke to her again he refused to negotiate he refused to go to the
court ordered counseling sessions showing up at the jail instead of their meeting at the office to serve his contempt charge the confused police officers took his statement that he was ready to go to jail and sent him home since no arrest warrant had been issued the judge was dubious about this and still put him in jail the following weekend releasing him on Sunday night so he could go to work he spent three weekends in jail before Amy finally conceded defeat and canceled the counseling sessions the divorce took almost a year to finalize eyes Amy still
hoped he would come back to her but when her mother saw the announcement of his upcoming wedding she gave up on his wedding day she got drunk for the first time in 2 years time may not heal all wounds but it makes the pain more bearable finally she started dating again she had two serious relationships that ended twice barely telling her about her past before she finally met a man who loved her enough to consider her past the past and focus on the future she married him and they were happy she was very careful in
her relationships with other men especially where she worked she was called a nun because she never went to social parties and hardly ever talked to men except for work related topics the only thing that marred her happiness was a chance encounter with Ben 2 years after her wedding after her old employer paid him a confidential settlement to avoid going to court he had left town he returned to the city to commemorate his sister and her husband's 25th wedding anniversary by coincidence she SP spotted him perched on a park bench she wasn't positive it was him
at first his hair had turned gray and he appeared leaner than she had remembered she stopped at a stoplight and decided she wanted to talk to him hoping to finally apologize for her actions but changed her mind when a tall woman with fiery red hair approached with a boy about 2 years old and a little girl about 6 or S years old the girl had red curls like her mother's and the boy had dark curls the girl jumped into his lap and the woman took the Young One In Her Arms he rose holding the girl
in his arms kissed the woman and left Amy was surprised to feel the tears but then realized she had glimpsed a future That was supposed to be hers she wiped the tears away and went home to make her husband his favorite dinner Josh and sunny managed to reconcile after 15 months apart she made him go through counseling oneon-one and together and sign a pretty tough prenup he apologized so much that she finally lost her patience and told him that if he apologized one more time she would leave for good he became a different person he
rarely went anywhere without her or his children he worked hard his new job didn't pay as well as his old one but he got raises and bonuses for his hard work it took him six years to get back on track Sunny had to take a job to make 's meet and when they reunited she refused to leave it it broke his heart when sometimes she went out for drinks after work or went to quarterly work seminars she never did anything even remotely indecent but her stubborn refusal to talk about it bothered him greatly and she
secretly took great satisfaction in it their life was far from what it used to be but they were working to build a better life for themselves and their children one day it occurred to Josh about 12 times for an average of 30 to 40 minutes they had intercourse with Amy using the largest number it came out to be roughly 9 hours balanced by the years of hardship his family endured and the breakdown of Amy's marriage was it worthwhile no way
