Dear Abby: My Wife Cheated on me With 10 Different Men, Now She’s Homeless
New York Post ^ | April 26, 2023

Posted on 04/26/2023 12:25:57 PM PDT by nickcarraway

DEAR ABBY: My wife and I were married 21 years ago. Since then, she has admitted to cheating with 10 different men. Each time, I stayed with her, hoping she’d change. I finally left 3 1/2 years ago because I couldn’t take it anymore. She became homeless, but for the past year and a half she has been living with my daughter and me because I saw her on the street one day and she looked terrible.

We are now moving, and my daughter wants her mother to get a job (she’s capable of getting one). My ex refused to get one to help pay the bills. Now I’m faced with another dilemma: Should I let her go on her own or fight for her to stay with us? My daughter is completely against her living with us. My income is limited. I’m on disability for a bad heart. My ex is 43, and I’m 58. Can you please advise? — NOT LOOKING BACK IN COLORADO

DEAR NOT LOOKING BACK: Your daughter is right. You are disabled and on a limited income, and your ex-wife is able-bodied. With her out of there, your expenses will be lower. Nowhere in your letter did you mention that you still love this parasite, nor did you mention whether she has changed her ways. Your responsibility for her ended when the marriage did. Encourage her to reach out to her relatives for a place to stay, or guide her to a shelter. But not only should you let her go, you must find the strength to insist upon it

Hard to believe someone writes to Dear Abby because of not knowing what to do with this ex wife, but there you go.

Perhaps ChatAPT will do better.

Rodney Dangerfield:

My wife cut me down to having sex to just once a month.

It could be worse, two other guys I know got cut off completely
by her.

10 times over 21 years and you let it go?

Dear Not Looking Back, you're looking back. Anyone with an IQ more than their toe count would know to leave slutty alone in her filth. No, you're envisioning a three way with your present wife and your ex. This is the road to disaster. Your wife will fall in love with your ex and they will give you the boot and you'll be homeless. You'll be lucky to survive such an ordeal. So it boils down to ONE THING. Do you feel lucky? (Harry Callahan voice)"Well do ya' punk"?

I spotted the deception many years ago. Letters to “dear Abby” and other non-existent advice columnists are created by the columnist. Some of the ideas come from real letters, but the ones that get published are written by the columnist.

Normally, before these end times, I would be shocked that an adult would be incapable of such a decision.

But I have decided that humanity is on the decline and that decline is accelerating.

I’m glad I only have a few more decades of this place.

If she admitted to 10 who is to say there weren’t a whole bunch more. She sounds like a bipolar nymphomaniac. Since she’s already been whoring around for the last 20 years she might as well get paid for it. Just drop her off in the red light district and let her figure things out from there.

Remember when Dr. Laura was on the air and some real wackos would call her show.

“she has admitted to cheating with 10 different men”

So the real number is probably close to 100.

If she admitted to cheating with 10 men, chances are
she had really been cheating with 35 men, or more.
Depends on the definition of ‘cheating’.
