The Five Year Plan.

While linking from one cheaters website to another and hearing about how these women cheat and lie to their husbands there was one in particular who disturbed me greatly. She has a loveless marriage and a five year plan to disentangle their lives so that she can divorce him. She was sleeping around with 7 or 8 men (I can't fathom how she keeps them all straight and secret)

But a five year plan? How much of a cold calculating bitch do you have to be to do something like that (by the way I'm sure I would plan mine out and be a massively vindictive bitch who ends up with everything should I ever decide to want to leave) which is what bothers me so much. If I would do it (and dislike myself for it) then I have to wonder if "The One" would and no matter how much I am assured that "The One" is an incredible man who will stick by my side and love me no matter what I do, I have a deep down fear that eventually he will decide this poly thing doesn't work for him.

Do not confuse my blog with the one describing how she's calculating to leave her husband in five years. I have crushes on 7 or 8 men but do not plan to get divorced. I am in love with someone else and want to stop it. So last week I slept with someone to hopefully cure myself of this madness. Not sure if it worked yet. We'll see.

Hi Penelope! I am that heartless bitch with the five year plan. I guess it came out horrible but honestly its what keeps my sanity in this marriage. I actually was not talking about moving money etc. because if you read further, my hubby cleaned us out without me even knowing (he withdrew all our money without my knowledge and threw all the debt on me).
As for the seven or eight men, it depends what you consider cheating. Internet chatting, well than I am guilty, actually sleeping with a guy--well if you read on, I actually have NOT cheated in that way and will not till I decide that there is someone there who can fill the void I have. Proud? I'm not. Five year plan..I am putting a few bucks away and honestly I hope in five years that our marriage turns around, that we use my savings for a trip together or I do plastic surgery---but if we are unhappy, it will do more damage to stay an eternity in a loveless marriage. So I hope you get a better picture and do not judge me as harshly. I was honest about the five year plan. And sadly, there was a whole article on the divorces in their 40's and it says most women have been planning it out in their life while men just decide it and do it. So, I'm sorry that it disturbed you and I wish it weren't true but a timeline helps me .--Cheri
