so what are you in for what well okay I'll tell you eight months ago I was happily married to a loving gentle and attentive man we got married right out of high school and had children a few years later I had a classic American family with two children a boy and a girl I also had time to build my career and even got a few promotions which involved a lot of responsibility I had a friend at work named Cheryl she had been married twice and screwed up both times but she had a lot of experience
with men she used to fill my head with her stories of the wild nights she'd spent with different guys and she'd always say go for it while you still can we're not getting any younger it's such a bliss she said it would diversify my love life make me feel wanted and make my marriage stronger she was very obsessive but after her talk I started to wonder the thing is I was a virgin when I married bill and I had all these work responsibilities plus the house and the kids and after 15 years of marriage the
bedroom became a chore I don't mean I wasn't happy I just wanted some excitement and new experiences I felt old like the best things in my life were behind me I couldn't bring myself to cheat on my husband in secret so I honestly told him everything and told him what I intended to do the fact that he was not happy is an understatement he said a categorical no and threatened me with divorce to which I told him that I loved him but that no matter what I was going to do it anyway it's only going
to be one night I assured him and then I'll be your old loving wife and it will never happen again if you love me you must let me he was indignant and screaming and then he just ran out of the house what a fool I was it was a Wednesday and I left work early on Friday his name was Frank he had been flirting with me for weeks and Cheryl assured me he was great in bed apparently she had already tried it with him we met for dinner and dancing I thought he was so Charming
though in retrospect I realized it was all a sham it was all contrived after dancing for about an hour or so we went to his room all I can say is Cheryl greatly exaggerated his abilities I have someone at home much better than him at least I wanted to Hope I still do Frank's plan was for us to go out for breakfast in the morning and then go back to the room but I'd had enough the whole thing had been a colossal mistake and all I wanted to do was go back to my family and
get my husband to forgive me I couldn't think about anything else but it didn't happen we talked I begged him but he was adamant the thing is when I betrayed him I didn't just disappoint him I robbed him of his manhood I made him feel unloved and inferior if he had forgiven me he would have lost whatever self-respect he still had I had broken him and ruined the best thing that had ever happened to me all because my life seemed boring and monotonous and I had stopped appreciating what I had and all because of some
stupid thing even though he tried it was clear that there was nothing to be gained back the divorce was quick we shared custody of the children but we no longer live together Cheryl tried to convince me that it was Bill's fault and if he really loved me he would turn a blind eye I told her to go to hell that's when I started planning and working on what got me here I started going to the gym every day on my lunch break and whenever the kids were at bills in addition to doing Pilates and on
the exercise bike I started spending a lot of time on the weight machines after increasing my strength and endurance I started going to workouts where they taught me how to throw punches and kicks I became very athletic today is exactly two months since my final divorce this morning I walked up to Cheryl and without saying a word I punched her right and her lying face several times I broke her nose knocked out some teeth and I think I broke her jaw our colleagues called an ambulance and my boss called the police I looked at my
cellmates three prostitutes and me a psychotic that's how I ended up here I looked at myself in a small mirror at the other end of the cell bolted to the wall above the sink so does your life still seem boring to you
