Grrr. Just ran across the OW's pinterest page (we were friends so have lots of friends in common). She has a page of inspirational quotes, leading off with this one -- "Divorce isn't such a tragedy. A tragedy's staying in an unhappy marriage, teaching your children the wrong things about love. Nobody ever died of divorce." This from the same person who tells everyone about the 'tragedy' of the day her father left her mother for another woman when she was a kid. She's now almost 50. No, dumbass, staying in an unhappy marriage isn't the most tragic thing to show your kids. Pursuing your kids' friends' married fathers, however, is. And maybe putting up inspirational quotes about divorce for all to see, including your kids, while you're still married to their father is a problem as well. *Note -- not anti-divorce when the situation warrants it, just anti-POS.

Yeah, they just don't think about what they post. Once when I was still checking the ow fb page. She had posted a quote about how to raise daughters to be women with integrity was to show them by example. This was the same woman who introduced her daughter to her married boyfriend when the daughter was in middle school. And that's how she taught her daughter to be a woman with integrity.
I am so glad that I quit looking at her page. I looked for about 6 months, then I deleted my fake fb page I was using to look. It helped me tremendously.
I hope you can find a way to not see what she posts. It really isn't worth it.

Oh, no worries on avoiding her and her social media,though I do have lots of friends in common so must studiously avoid situations where we could physically end up in the same place. My main worry there is I would have to resist the urge to beat the crap out of her.
I find it strange that so many OW are attached to finding and posting inspirational quotes to try to make meaning out of their pathetic existences. I think it's part of the narcissism and the the fog. But she's very worried that her daughter will find out that she's not quite the mother that she pretends to be. And her husband is a private eye. You think she'd be a little more discreet, but she's a dumbass who tries really hard to curate herself into a caring and smart person. And fails.

Wow, there's more than one woman who has done this.
The only person you can change is yourself.

"Pooping everywhere isn't such a tragedy. A tragedy's when you only poop at designated times and places, teaching your children the wrong things about holding it in. Nobody ever died of projectile feces."
