	But of course their choices are skanks, inmates, unemployed and worthless. 
 
 
	The WS is always broken, so it makes sense.  Their self-esteem and self-respect is nonexistant.  They MUST be adored, in fantasy.  The only minions prepared to take that role are society's castoffs. 
 
 
	Makes perfect sense.

	And these women are totally okay with not being able to go out in public with their 'boyfriend', and know that every time he leaves her bedroom they are going home to sleep beside and wake up beside someone he is not ashamed of. What type of woman is happy to be that? The OW in my case is not unemployed, is smart, but I do wonder why she settled for that type of life instead of a proper boyfriend for 18m???

	Because whatever her outward appearance is or whatever the public perception of her is, she's a morally weak person - the weakest of the pack - no character, no grit, an easy target. She's a piece of shit, with no self-esteem or self-worth.

	WH had his head so far up his butt that his secret name for her was "Virtuous". Seriously. This insightful post helped me see that I am the only one in this nightmare that has earned that title.

	That just made me cry. It is so true. I often wonder what she had that I didn't. The girl my SO cheated with is very pretty and thin. BUT she knew he had a family and she knew he was not plannign on leaving but she still tried. she still begged, she still said she loved him etc...I could NEVER do that!!! now thanks to your post, I know what she doesnt have....self respect!!

	I have spent the past month feeling horrible because WHs SOW was tall, thin, very attractive.  
 
 
 
	WH told me that she was married for a long time and was divorced about a year and a half ago and that even though he wore condoms (except during the oral sex  
 ) she was such a nice girl and wouldn't have been a big STD risk. 
 
 
	In reality, it turns out she has been divorced multiple times, lived with other men between the marriages/divorces, but somehow ended up loving WH "more than she has ever loved anyone in her entire life."  
  This after two months.  No real dates (out to dinner once, they each paid for their own meal), only a handfull of booty calls.  She can really pick the winners   
 
 
 
	It took me about a month to finally understand this concept.  But, it's true...they always affair down.

	Needed someone to look up to him.  I was always pressing for more.  I work hard, expected him to work hard.  I bring home a good salary. I expected him to bring home a good salary.  I have a standard of living that I want to maintain.  Expected him to do his part.  His OWs were economically-challenged, poorly educated, and he could play Big Dog.  They wouldn't push for more or be upset when he changed jobs again, or was unemployed for 6 months at a time.  He came home and told me that he was a "catch", a red-flag that I missed.

	Good stuff. Although hard to read considering FWW was the OW. Sad but true. My wife was more atractive and that boosted her esteem at the time. You nailed it though. That was pure luck. 
 
 
	
OW sold her soul for the morsels
 
 
 
	Isn’t it ironic that  cheaters often call each other Soul mates (I found emails) when they are selling their souls.
