I Will Survive.
I sat in my truck feeling distraught, shaking like a leaf in strong winds as unwelcome, overwhelming emotions tore me apart. I was angry with myself because I knew nothing in my life had happened to me - I brought it all on myself.
As I stared through bleary, emotionally exhausted eyes at the evidence on my phone, I knew Charlotte had fucked another man during her recent business trip. Our joint credit card statement had arrived by email and I opened it, discovering her latest deceit. The message even showed an attached receipt for my wife’s room service order at the Intercontinental Hotel, New York.
Two club sandwiches and a bottle of Veuve Cliquot were served shortly after midnight—hardly a business expense; hence, the transaction was billed to our personal card, for which she knew I received the statements.
It was another sign that my wife’s infidelity was out of control and that she was willing, perhaps happy, to waft the evidence in my face, ridiculing me. Charlotte had become a hotwife by unilateral declaration, meaning I didn’t participate in or celebrate her lifestyle.
