Friend Is Angry AT ME As I Won't Warn My Husbands Mistress "He's Not Rich" r/Relationships

[@owl7072]

Story 1: And why is it on Op to tell the mistress that her husband is a lying shit? That should already be clear from the fact that _he has a mistress._

[@MatildeVallespinCasas]

The friend initially tried to mask her identification with the mistress appealing to OP's empathy, claiming that he may be the victim of a scam(which is not implausible, tbh). It was the wording and how she took for granted that it was somehow OP's responsibility to solve a problem that was not his what gave her away

[@mightymouse654]

Yes exactly!

[@nicholerubes2959]

But in the mistress point of view; "this is an exception! He loovess me."😅

[@hi_stranger9156]

Story 1: *"You owe the mistress an explanation and should help her out by letting her know"* is WILD. The bestie was a mistress and had flashbacks of what if this was me. Selfish and a liar.

And not only with her current husband. The wording makes me think that she has had other relationships where she's been the other woman and has been played as well, which may be a clue of why she identifies with the mistress

[@madambutterfly1997]

I admire op and how she did not give a flying fuck in the instant her husband confessed that he cheated

I want to know what the mistress had to say about finding out he wasn't what he claimed.

[@DrownedInExile]

I approve of OP's indifference! Partner absolutely wanted her to pay the "pick-me" dance, disappointed that she didn't bite. OP said her bestie was good at gaslighting, so I very much doubt she was ever a real friend. Good riddance to both of them. I hope OP hits the gym to work off her sadness and anger. And to be petty, send his snivelling last love letter to his mistress.

[@lilolmecj]

Kind of reminds me of my first, really only, heartbreak. There was the moment I realized he just wasn’t that into me, while I was experiencing my first all in, head over heels infatuation. I had put him on a flight, having not resolved anything about what would be our next step, I was crushed. Stood in the airport parking garage ugly crying before I could get composed enough to drive. And like a faucet being turned off, I was absolutely done. It shocked me that I turned on a dime, but there it was. The only thing remaining was to break ties. He was pretty shocked, and I felt a little bad for him, but that is all I felt.

Ive always hated that damn phrase. I never meant to hurt you~ yet you cheated and continued to cheat~ but please convince your partner it was just a mistake over the years screwing someone behind their back 😂. And yeah i had a suspicion the friend was too sympathetic therefore she had to have been one because she wished she was warned. A cheater is owed nothing but karma. I'm proud of OP for sticking to her guns.

[@Sherwoody]

When his -side piece- mistress realizes he’s not the prize she thought he was, he might try crawling back to OP. His line “I never meant to hurt you” isn’t going to buy his way back.

[@tazhienunurbusinezz1703]

These types of guys do actually want the person they cheated on to cry & beg for him back. He wants her to do the pick me dance. The reason for this is then he can treat her however he wants & he knows she'll stay. He could maybe even get her to transfer some of her wealth to him. I bet he thought they had been together long enough & that she had invested too much of her life into their relationship to not "fight for the relationship". It was a miscalculation on his part if that's what he thought. You can tell that he didn't expect her to have the self respect to immediately dump him.

[@lizthedisjointedzebra692]

What makes that "friend" think OP owes the mistress anything???? I would be hella suspicious of the "best friend" after literally defending the mistress.

[@Bleg94]

She obviously outed herself as a golddigging mistress

[@MatildeVallespinCasas]

She tried initially mask it as concern that husband was a victim of some scam and tried to appeal to her empathy. However, the way she reacted afterwards, makes me think she was duped many times by men(married, attached or not)and she identifies with the mistress

[@brandyb2931]

Its not her job to tell his mistress he's not rich. He wants an open relationship because he has led this girl to believe that the boat and vacation home etc, are all his. If they break up, he has to come up with a reason why he doesn't have them anymore. He isn't hoping for a catfight for his love. His image he has built up to this girl is gonna blow up in his face. That's what he's worried about. What a douchebag. They both deserve each other. Her friend should be a better best friend.

[@snake5solid]

While not his top priority, he most definitely cared about OP not being heartbroken. His ego took a hit. He didn't think she would just discard him like the trash he is.

[@marshawargo7238]

Money is usually what AP's are interested in when they hook on to an older married man. Since she found an older married man without OP's help, I don't see any reason why OP needs to offer any help in her future financial security. Besides once she finds out about his finances, she'll dump him & he'll try to velcro back onto OP! OP is taking advantage of the "get out the easiest way you can" plan!😂 He just thought he had more control than he did!

Also, the Queen Mum was by no stretch "universally loved" beyond the British rags and Tory set. She was a right dragon and spendthrift, for a start. Yes, a lot of older people still loved her because she and George VI were such stalwarts during WWII - younger Brits, not so much. And if you think she loved Camilla...oof.

[@jaakkomantyjarvi7515]

@@paulastiles5507 Point taken re the Queen Mum being or not being "universally loved", but that wasn't the main issue here anyway. The fact remains that Camilla is Queen Consort because she is married to the King and will become Queen Dowager if she survives him. Diana was never Queen, and Camilla is just as entitled to her title-via-marriage as Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon was to hers. Stripping Camilla of that title would seem highly unusual and a bad PR move at the very least.

Love the cress-in-the-carpet story! Reminds me of the one I heard years ago about a woman whose cheating husband took their house in the divorce. Before she left, the wife sewed a bunch of shrimp into the lining of the drapes. As time went on, the shrimp got more and more rotten, and no one could figure out where the stink was coming from 🤣 IDK if it's a true story but it makes me laugh.

Husband.... pissed off that OP is calm and immediately releases him to the AP. Husband.... "I never meant to hurt you." yeah, that's why you were hurt she wasn't hurt.

[@philwill0123]

Story 1- by telling the mistress, all OP is generating is more crap from her now ex about "ruining his relationship" . Why purposely get involved when he can ruin it himself?

[@fyoutube9410]

What planet am I from. Why would the wife owe the mistress anything...

[@JasmynSundayrose]

That "friend" is something else

[@meghansherman6880]

My goodness. I don't get teary-eyed often with these stories, but wow, I'm struggling. Ada is a pure soul for sure ❤. Sorry for your loss, happy you found another great person.

Story 1 You don't owe the Mistress shit.

[@PlasticBluVentRabbit]

Talk about a snake in the garden, good thing OP ditched that fake ass friend Of course the one siding with the cheat is a mistress herself 🙄

[@AsproKaiBleh]

In story 1 - the best friend is NOT a friend either...she needs to get rid of all the POS's in her life, way too many

[@shadowkissed2370]

My petty arse would contact ex-friend's husband and inform him that his wife is upset how he trapped her with the deception of being rich.

[@gabinathan5499]

3×3CHEERS TO ADA FOR BEING SO GRREAT+ accepting OF OP'S SITUATION NOT TO mention wanting to make him happy BUT NoT trying To REPLACE+ DISPLACE OP'S FIRST WIFE IN HIS LIFE.

[@albertgongora6944]

Not going to lie that last story was beautiful had me in tears I wish nothing but the best for the original poster and his newfound love Ada to bring him nothing but happiness and for him to bring nothing but happiness to her life as well Man how lucky is he to find a second love in his life that's very similar to his ex-wife that is just amazing

[@hodgeelmwood8677]

OP doesn't owe the mistress anything. And best friend is either someone else's mistress, too, or she was hoping to get with OP's guy at some point and didn't realize he wasn't rich.

[@LaineyBug2020]

Story 1- He's out and at his parents and the locks are changed. Do the kindness of filing his change of address with the postal service. Take his name off of everything, and tell Daddy not to look to heard for a contract for him. Not Dad's fault if he just can't find anything and he didn't get anything in writing! ETA I'd also make a post about needing to get the beach house fumigated!

[@tracicolvis7382]

I loved the shovel comment. I have a college-aged daughter and I've told her since she hit her teens that the one tool a woman needs above all others is a shovel. Good for both dispatch and disposal. LOL

[@FlipTheBard]

OP's trashy "husband" wanting to open their relationship after he admitted to having a mistress made me think thar he wanted OP to keep being his safety net. Someone he could ever fall back to once the mistress grew tired of the "old man" and so he wouldn't end up old and alone as he would then have OP to make company. What a selfish prick!People like that DO deserve to end up alone.

[@phoenixsky6124]

Your friend sounds like a scorned mistress

[@Monsterbunnych]

New wife is truly the cutest human. So sweet and awesome. I’m nearly crying

[@noname-ip9xe]

The second OP is so lucky I’ve seen far too many stories on Reddit where someone gets jealous of a dead person and it’s ridiculous. Good for him honestly and as well good on her for being such an amazing lady from what I can tell, at least in the story.

[@hannahjanis8616]

I loved the last story. Made me so damn happy to hear a good story for once. All these tales of new partners trying to erase the old ones have me depressed as hell.

[@themegabigctoo]

story 2: oh man those onion ninjas are at it again

[@1tiptip187]

Isn't she letting the mistress know by kicking the guy out? She'll be finding out his actual income soon. If I was the friend I would be more like "Oh crap! You need to let your parents know to ban him from the beach house and boat and call the cops if he still tries to use them!"

[@dianeessex300]

Story 2 I don't understand people who feel threatened by their partner's past relationships, especially under these circumstances. Loyal people are loyal. That should be a comfort, not a threat.

[@wildblue0]

Story 1: I don't know how OP resisted the urge to yell down "Because he can't kick people out of property that's not his!" Also, I'm pretty sure Friend was also a mistress.
