Estelle....it's either religion or men bashing

2old. Thank you. I mossed that part. I had only seen the part in the OP about the husband not wanting a divorce.

Still doesn't explain mentally disturbed by religion. Doesn't explain why she did it in the 1st place. Doesn't mean the guys drove her crazy either. Plain and simple, she is Looney tunes

Yes I'm just bashing religion and men with my terrible words.

Or maybe like I said she just wants this male 'friend' to get off her back, she is married now.

Maybe he's a roll of Charmin. He can take a lot of crap but in the ends up disposed of as an empty roll.

WOW...LMAO Can I snag that; I've not heard that one before!!!

I'd lay odds that if we all took a vote she'd {the women at the center of this convolute story} would be the #1 vote unlikely to keep a relationship going!
But that just seems like

WOW, It just gets worse. The guy that got booted called me today. Up until today he has been pretty quiet. He said he needed someone to talk to. And since he thought I was neutral, he could talk to me. She called him today while hubby was out and gone. He said that at first he thought she was joking. He found out she wasn't.

She wanted to talk to him about Polygamy. She was dead serious. She told him that he gave her the things that the man she married didn't. And we are not talking just sex here. He said that she told him that the guy she married knew nothing about "emotional intimacy" and that he(the guy she booted) gave her that very well. And she missed it.

She missed having someone that paid attention to her. Listened, Cuddled her and was just an all-around good friend. And, gave her what she wanted in bed to boot. My jaw hit the floor. The guy that I'm talking about, He is a good man. He told her to kiss his *** and go jump in the lake. He told me that she did her best to talk him into it. He wasn't having it.

The thing that I don't get, If you do something stupid like she did, that's bad enough. But when you stay with the man, and he gives you nothing, He can't sex you and he knows nothing about intimacy of any kind and you don't really love him, Why stay? Why try to talk the guy you say you truly love into Polygamy? This has got to be the craziest, wildest story I have ever had the displeasure of whitnessing unfold.

Ok this woman broke up with her love and showed her love by marrying someone else? That someone else is supposed to have been her friend of 7 yrs (some friend she is huh) and doesn't love him? Now she wants her cake and eat it too?

Coo coo for cocoa puffs. I would tell them all to leave you out. They got themselves in this mess, they can get out of it.

They don't need to bring a friend into it. IMO

there are multiple sides to every story. the truth lies somewhere in between.
one doesn't know all the details.
why would a person stay married to someone who doesn't love them? perhaps their word is their honor.
perhaps they love though that love is not reciprocated.
many people make fun of those who keep to their religious beliefs. yet if a person doesn't stand for their principles, religious or otherwise, what is their integrity worth?

furthermore, nobody can take responsibility or credit for someone else's actions and choices. each individual is accountable for themself.

if you already tried to give advice or be a friend, you did your part.

they are going to live this out as they see best. it could mean heartache. it could mean they find a happy middle ground.
many people make a go of it even when they don't marry for love

based on what i've understood from your conveyance of this roller coaster soap opera...

she seems like she is being selfish and irresponsible. 2 wrongs don't make a right, neither is emotionally blackmailing someone to cover it up.

the guy she didn't marry, should leave her alone, for the simple reason that she is married already. probably do both of them better to keep his distance and not entertain her at all for the meantime.

the guy that is married to her, might want to consider entering into marriage counselling with her.

if you are really a friend, help her be more responsible and accountable for the choices she made, and not give her more reasons to justify her mistakes, and escape from them. otherwise, she'll never learn, and just keep on repeating the same mistakes.

As The World Turns

Stay tuned for tomorrow's episode to find out...

Will the jilted boyfriend cave and accept the woman's proposal for polygamy?
Will they have babies?
Which baby will be the jilted boyfriend's?
Will the husband accept the boyfriend's baby as his and raise it as his own?
Under which religion will the baby be raised?
Where will the boyfriend/Second husband sleep?

All these exciting questions and more will soon be answered. Don't forget to tune in.

Even if Charles {ya, that dude that brought this great soap opera in here for all of us to devour} was a board certified marriage physiologist --- would he take this on as a 'Free Will' case just in hopes that one of those 3 adults would come to their senses and pay attention to any directive??? And Charles has only known her {allow me to repeat this once again} 'he's only known this woman for 1 year'; he doesn't know her prior track record - doesn't know if this is how she has stumbled through her life - managed to ruin other love affairs - how many marriages - how many broken hearts lay behind her 'CONFUSED' messed up way of dealing with her 3 week twisted/leap off that cliff into another mans arms and rush to get married!

But the longer our Charles lingers into this convoluted marriage from HELL the more he'll be drug into any and all legal proceedings from all parties involved because they'll all want him to testify on and for their side! I've seen it one to many times and it is horrible for the poor fool in the middle - he/she is the only one with a conscience and a soul that is losing sleep over this --- not those 3 involved!

At first I thought that was about Estelle.

How do you know so much about these three people ?

he made a wrong decision for marrying that guy and she can't blame other people but just herself .Regrets are felt when it's just too late . .

You must be trying to look at this via your mobile hook up or you'd be going back to the start of this thread/topic and reading what started the entire subject matter; it's rather lengthy in detail but a highly interesting SOAP OPERA to be sure! LOL

The OP is living vicariously through the psycho's drama...

lolol I was hoping someone would summarize/ paraphrase
