Is Your Husband A Gentleman, Or A Bastard?
When the Gentleman Becomes a Heel
You’ll never know what type of fish you have caught till you have hooked and reeled him in. Marriage is a big eye-opener, and whatever blemishes in character you have overlooked, you’ll discover all of them in due time. The first chance was finding a Zippo lighter with a tacky engraving of endless love in your man’s shirt pocket.
It was definitely not from you because you gave him one of those military Zippo lighters, one with a big red letter M and an iconic marine picture on chrome. That was a fairly new Zippo edition, so the piece you’re looking at is certainly not yours. The lighter displayed a playboy bunny, definitely not something you’d give your husband.
Now you know your man is seeing somebody else, thanks to that personalized Zippo you found. The thought can be devastating. No wonder the tears on your pillow have not dried up because you can’t confront the bastard. Anyway, whether he denies or admits the truth, the damage has been done.
It sure does clear the air if he tells you “I am sorry.” But if he is a repeat offender, a million ‘I’m sorries’ won’t bring back that old comfortable footing in your relationship.
The Gentleman, or the Heel
Married men, though not all, will taste the forbidden fruit of extramarital affairs. How they react to getting caught or discovered exposes the chap or cad that he is.
The man will confess to his infidelity, will be truthfully sorry about hurting you, and will do his best to make up for it. The cad, however, will [/spin]harangue|bluster[/spin] his way out of the situation, threaten you, and call you a jealous hag, which actually, you are at the moment.
Your gentlemen of a husband will drive to woo you back and submissively drop his shoe into the shoe rack every time he arrives from work. He’ll do anything to make you feel the vindicated victor. The cad? He’ll continue to do as he wishes, and tell you to buff his Doc Martens because he needs to leave ASAP, just when he just came in!
The gentleman won’t physically abuse|maltreat you, but will be willing victim act. The cad will take any chance to exploit you anytime he gets cranky, lousy, hungry, or if thechildren are rowdy.
Definitely, the gentleman won’t opt for a divorce; the cad will ask for it.
