Title: Mama Say

I am having a hard time feeling anything for Saul because I actually don't feel like he really regrets having sex with Alicia.  Idk, I feel like it was great sex and therefore that was why he did it but I still love you Lynne.  Like he compartmentalized his actions and can't grasp the severity of the situation.  As Lynne feels, this wasn't a one off thing, he continued and that showed lack of respect and love for his marriage, wife and family.  I loved her friend saying, Saul threw the love away when he slept with that other woman.  Yesss, Lynne don't feel obligated to stay because it wasn't you, it was Saul and he has to live with the consequences.  A lost wife, lost love of his life and a crazy stalker chick.  

I really want him to see the disillusionment in Mal's eyes and hear his son tell him that he doesn't want to be the man that his father is.  Wonder how he will feel hearing that.

so happy it's back and can't wait for more.



Author's Response:

I think you said it just right.  Saul compartmentalized the sex with Alicia and his feelings for his wife and family in order to give himself permission to continue to have sex with Alicia.  The evidence of that is that he keeps saying "it was just sex".  I think a lot of men can separate sex and love quite easily.  It's why the "it was just sex" or "she didn't mean anything" excuse is always used when men cheat. The problem is that a lot of women DON'T separate sex and love.  It's a package deal, so when their men cheat it means something more to the women they cheat on.  That's the type of woman Lynne is...she doesn't separate sex and love.  Because of this, Saul is going to have long, rocky road to forgiveness.  And even if he GETS forgiveness, it doesn't mean he's going to get his wife back.

As far as Saul and his kids?  The way they feel about him now is going to lay him LOW...especially after a confrontation with Mal.  That's coming up soon.  Thanks for reading.

Title: Mama Say

Momma to the rescue!  They need to have a conversation about how how momma's choice to suffer in silence with her father doesn't mean that she has to. Go to marriage and family counseling because Saul stupid ass decision affected the whole family. Why is Alicia still employed?   Saul will eventually have file an order of protection and a restraining order because the ho is coo coo for coca puffs!

Title: His Betrayal

This is nice! I like stories where the couple is already together and we actually get to see how they handle the hurdles of relationships. Question, how exactly do the characters look? I haven't seen any descriptions of them in your story

I will upload pics once I figure out how to do it.  Thanks for reading!

Title: Where Do We Go From Here?

Where do we go from here?

Well, Saul needs a cheap furnished apartment.  I feel that he is still not getting the damage he has done.  

Lynne needs to go to a lawyer and a doctor, perferably the doctor first.  

Alicia needs a good beat down, but she won't test Lynne again.  I hope Cam, who seems to have a good head on her shoulders, tell Alicia she can't make someone love her.  

I don't know if Saul is worth it:  one night stand I could see counseling and a try, but what he did and in his office, too...Lynne should file for a separation and take her time on making a decision.  She owes Saul nothing.

I am loving this revision!

Title: Wounded

Love Aunt Ernie. She's got the right idea. Saul hurt his whole family, the idjit. He's got a lot of ass kissing to do for a whole bunch of people. And that strange is irrelvant, she's not even worth the bother. Saul needs to handle that, he brought the trick into Lynn's life, that's on him. Lynn best get tested, these days, cheating is not the worst thing that can happen. Saul is a fool and his tallywacker needs to be cut off. FOOL

Good read, Chica.

Title: Wounded

Amazingly, some women (young and old) really do believe that 'as long as he comes home' or 'as long as he brings his check home' I can accept his cheating.  I have even heard 'well sometimes you have to just accept that a man is gonna be a man'--oh hell no you don't!  I hope Della don't take this type of nonsense to Lynne. 

The trust is gone and she will never get those images the other woman implanted into her mind, but they will fade.  

Read this in a book once:  man tells wife it was a accident when caught cheating. The writer suggested asking the husband if it was an accident that you both wound up naked, was it an accident that she fell in the bed with her legs open, was it an accident when your penis slid into her vagina--several times?  

Lynne did the right thing and he needed to go, so she can think.  

Love your new revision.

Yeah Saul, it was all HER fault. She just tripped and FELL on your dick, You DICK.  Poor guy, being trapped by the sinister female *heavy sarcasm*

So, no, if Lynne kicks your triflin' ass to the curb, buh-bye.

Sorry you lost your story, but I agree about there being a reason for it. And I'm seeing it in this chapter. I love that you're giving us a front row seat to the idiocy of Saul and the cheatation (more context).

Title: The Call

Well S-H-I-T just hit the fan.  Wow, just wow.  Sorry about your story being deleted from the hard drive and on valentchamber but I must say your muse came out swinging in these first 2 chapters that I am hooked and will be checking daily for any and all updates.

Well Saul, you reap what you sow.  I love the fact that he has to not only face his wife after this betrayal but also his children and watch the disillusionment in their eyes about their father and that can be the worst for any parent who cares about their children to see.  Does Saul really think he can SAY anything that will improve this situation.  That he can TALK his way out of this.  Seriously Saul, saying sorry isn't going to cut it.  As the infamous line by Halle Berry " Love, should've brought your ass home".  I hope in this story line they still get a divorce because at this time, I don't feel he is sorry.  If he was, he would've told her what happened after the first time instead he was NEVER going to say anything.  

Can I say I loved how Lynne gave him the hands and how she shut Alicia down quick.  Oooohhhh Saul, you just lost a real woman for a thot.   "shakes head while sticking tongue out saying oooooooo, you in trouble".

Title: His Betrayal

You deleted the previous version.You didn't have any back up of your story??

 

Anyways. I did not like Saul in the first story and I don't like him in this one either. Like I mentioned already in previous comments of the first chapter. We can all have our weak moments. We all make mistakes. But if you make the same mistake twice or more than that, then that is not a mistake anymore. That is just not caring and not caring at all about the consequences.  This has been going for three weeks. He didn't fully regret it after the first time. Otherwise he wouldn't have done it a second time, that had turned in to a three weeks affair.

He is disgusting!!!! He may love Lynne, but he did not love her enough to stop. He was being selfish and was only thinking about his needs. We are humans, not animals. So we are perfectly able to control our self. So him saying that he had let his dick to the thinking is a complete bullsshit. He slept with Alicia because he wanted too. These type of man does not deserve a second chance. 

I hope Lynne will leave his ass. Saul will have to loose everything for him to actually realize how wrong he had done his wife and children. He is not the victim here. So Lynne shouldn't treat him as one, no matter how sorry he is for what he had done. Some people need to lose it all, for them to finally realize what they had.



Author's Response:

Honey believe me, I am going out to buy a USB drive tomorrow.  LOL.  I think it was for the best because the first version was based on a one off I had written and posted elsewhere and the intent was completely different.  I had a soft spot for Saul because of the tone of the one off and I couldn't continue to write the story feeling like that. Now, I can flesh out the reasons that their marriage had disintegrated and take the rose colored glasses of where Saul is concerned.  Like another reader said, my muse came out SWINGING.  I like this version better.

Saul is about to be introduced to karma and it would be deserved. Ifyou knew she had slept with other people at the job would fall into the abyss that was her vagina?  From here on out Saul will be known ad Stupid Saul,  SS for short.
