Potty-Mouthed Infidelity Speak

January 8, 2016 by Chump Lady

Doodle_ToiletI got taken to task recently for unsavory potty talk when writing about infidelity. A friend had posted the recent Cosmo excerpt of the new book on her Facebook page and someone remarked on the “foul” language.

“Fucked” and “Fuck off” were the cuss words used. (Although hey, I want points for using “flip” once!)

I get this criticism fairly often. On the positive end: “Decent advice, if you can look past the cursing,” to the pearl-clutching: “I can’t read it for all the F-bombs.”

And here’s the funny thing — I’m not a terribly coarse person in real life. And I don’t swear any more than the average American (except when stuck in Austin traffic… okay, then sailors blush…) But when I write about infidelity? YES, then I swear like a motherfucker.

I noticed this first when I was a new chump writing on infidelity boards for advice. I couldn’t express myself without a lot of invective. I wasn’t alone. I might not have been enforcing boundaries back then, but god damn, I could channel my anger when writing about being defrauded and degraded 6 months into my new marriage. (As it turned out, since I first got involved with him, he was cheating on me.)

By the time I began Chump Lady, my potty mouth was deliberate. FUCK THE EUPHEMISMS. These people are not “wayward” — they aren’t befuddled kittens — they are CHEATERS. I’m not some pathetic, poor “betrayed spouse” — I was CHUMPED. Alas, my husband didn’t fall in love with his mistress compelled by Forces Greater Than Us All — it was a deliberate CON.

Every F-bomb is intended to bitchslap chumps into reality. To get us to channel our righteous ANGER and hurt.

If you bang your thumb with a hammer, you say “&^%$#!!!”

You might even post on your Facebook page: “I banged my thumb with a hammer. &^%$#!!!”

And no one would batt an eye.

Walk in on your spouse having sex with another person — and you say “fuck”?

How UNCIVIL of you to use such language!

Now isn’t that a mindfuck? The most humiliating, painful experience of your life — inflicted on you with lies and disrespect, which has endangered your health and your family and your finances — and you can’t say “fuck.”

So today, Chump Nation, I’m asking you to use your potty mouths and change the narrative around infidelity. Luziana asked what’s your name for your cheater — I liked her “Jake from State Farm.” (Hey, if you’re going to use a euphemism, at least be clever about it.) Tell me yours!

Be clever, or be foul-mouthed. Just don’t be a chump.

I get every explanation of benefits for him….I wonder if it’s still my fault he has headaches that he’s being treated for?! Lol

                Love all the comments. I never really cursed before. That was, before Dumbass showed his true colors and I realized what a chump I have been in our 25 year marriage. He has lived up to every fucking curse word uttered about him and will always be a Fucking dumb ass. DA is his new nickname.

          Upon DDay I changed his ringtone to “ring ring. Asshole calling. There’s an asshole calling your phone.”

              I think swearing and anger are very therapeutic. Swear, scream, cry, vent just got to get the under and frustration out and here is a perfect safe place Tracy gave us. Fuck them who thinks otherwise.

                The only problem is, once I have started to cuss I can’t stop and I am on the roll. Had some slippers in not so appropriate places. But no doubt It feels so good and appropriate when I am on the roll. Honestly, I would be lost without the cussing and I wouldn’t know how else to express more fittingly how I feel about Mr. Focker. When trying to express or explain his true fucked-up-ness and shortcomings, I feel that even the worst cuss words aren’t accurate enough, but at least they are coming damn close to it.

      I had a skeleton/x-ray picture of a hand flipping the bird for The Evil One’s (TEO for short) callerID picture, but I’ve recently changed it to Deadpool’s cartoon pic saying, “You sound crazy”, LOL

      Ringtones have changed- it was that country song, “Cheater Cheater”, but I recently changed it to “My Give a Damn’s Busted”.

      Names for The Evil One has shifted towards the Albatross recently, since he was a dead weight tied around my neck; other names include (but not limited to) NSFW titles like Fuck-tard, Mother-fuckin’-Asshole, Dickhead, SonofaBitch, but mostly just TEO

    As the son of a clergyman I say fuck off to anyone who complains about this and shove it up their ass.

    When you have been cheated on maybe then you can tell us on chump nation not to use foul language.
    Instead of spending time defending and excusing cheaters perhaps they can criticize the people who cause us to swear.

    • WhichWayDidSheGo says

      January 8, 2016 at 9:24 am

      I fucking love to fucking cuss, but I do have one slight issue with your comment. Not to nitpick, but just as no one causes these assholes to cheat, no one causes us to swear. I realize you probably didn’t mean it that way, but I think if we’re going to stop blaming ourselves, it’s important to be consistent in realizing that no one makes anyone else do anything.

      Apologies. Pedant out.

      • kb says

        January 8, 2016 at 9:53 am

        I hear you, but I like to think that my profanity on these boards is a cathartic expression of anger. In everyday life, I don’t swear a lot. I’m in a managerial position, and my work environment is remarkable for its professional tone. When I talk with my friends, I don’t swear, save for the very rare “hell” and “damn” with the occasional “shit.” Never the F-bomb.

        I am still sometimes amazed at the depth of my anger toward the XH, even though I can feel myself moving more toward Meh and I know that once I’m out of the marital home (when is that settlement money coming through so I can close on the new place?), he will fade into the background of the past 25 years of my life (married for 18 of those). I’ll see his face in the family photographs, but I know that when I met him, he had some honor. I am not sure when he ceased being that man, but at one point he had integrity.

        Every time I see him in the house, I think he’s a cheating asshole. At least here, I’ll use those terms. 😉

    The language doesn’t bother me and when I’m home and angry, I let the f-bombs fly. However on a day to day basis I use Dodo, only because I work at a school and I don’t want to accidentally call him a fucking moron! I also like douchebag and fucktard. Another favorite is fuckface.

      Well, that’s a good point — context matters.

      I’m writing for adults who have been cheated on. I think it’s okay to say “fuck.”

      I do not, however, recommend swearing around kindergartners or your kids.

      But in your journal? Among friends? On-line? Let it fly.

It fucking HURTS, and if I don’t release SOMETHING I think I would become psychotic!! To the pearl-clutcher: My son of a motherfuckin bitch husband lied to me and my children everyday so that he could churn another bitch’s butter in a fucking pink-tiled bathroom where they work. My STBX and his “GLORY HOLE” threw me and my kids under the bus and we did not deserve it!!! Our lives are a mess because of his selfishness!!

        In defense of cursing around your kids, I believe it is possible to teach them how to curse responsibly via setting a few ground rules. Or, at least that’s my excuse. I called them “mommy words” and taught them that they couldn’t use them until they were grown up. This rule worked well–it gave them something to aspire to :)–until they were well into their teens, then the rule became no cursing at school or around their friends’ parents.

        STBX used to constantly try to shame me out of cursing around our three very rambunctious boys, something that was easy enough for him to take the high road on since was never alone with them for days, sometimes weeks, on end. So it really frosted his ass when they actually followed my rule and didn’t fulfill his prediction that they would become “snotty little potty-mouths.”

          Sometimes I wonder if people invented the concept of swear words just so they’d have something to redirect to when ANGRY people called them on their bullshit. Totally rich that your cheating STBX thought swearing was worth frowning upon but…you know, cheating was ok.

        The problem with waiting until 30 to have kids is that swearing is pretty already entrenched. I’m sure my kids heard some doozies even as toddlers (but at least “fuck” wasn’t their first word!).

          Temptest, you must be right (as usual)! I didn’t have my kids ’til I was 40. At age 2, my son dropped a heavy toy on his foot, and said, perfectly appropriately, ‘fuck!’. He not only knew the word, he know when and how to use it! Needless to say, we had to have a little talk about those ‘special words’ …..

          Now my kids are teens, and won’t let me swear much, ’cause I’m a grown up! But they have never sworn when and where they shouldn’t!

                For the longest time my son used the middle finger and surprisingly always quite appropriate. He hardly could talk in full sentences back then. Somehow he must have picked it up (promised, it wasn’t me he learned it from) and he always had a smirk on his face each time he lifted that finger very swloly. It’s said that sign language is very easy to learn for the young child – yup I can attest. I tried my best to extinguish signing the stinky finger but it was quite the challenge.

            I stopped swearing at other drivers when my now 32 year old daughter was in preschool… we were driving her to preschool one day, when from the back seat she piped up, “Mommy, I know what an asshole is!”… “um, you do?” I ventured. “Yes, Mommy, it’s someone who drives in front of you!”… now all these years later I like to think I taught all 3 kids good judgment about when and where it’s appropriate to swear.

              January 9, 2016 at 9:45 am

              Ha, almost the exact same experience with one of my sons, at three years old. “Say bad words, Mama.” Why? “Because they’re in front of you.”

              So I stopped swearing. I had stopped almost altogether for years, because of trying to live my life to please God. But other than a few, rare lapses, I was swear-free…until D-Day. I’m trying to find my way out of it again, because every time I indulge in calling him an f-ing f-tard, it just gets easier and easier to relapse into it when I’m angry. Since I work in a school, that is a bad idea. Some people can control themselves and use it only in the right context, if they have no religious reason not to swear. But to me it feels like I’m allowing myself to be controlled by a darker force. I know I have a right to my righteous anger over his antics, but I also know that I am supposed to keep from sinning when I am angry. I sort of take swearing as a sign of how far I am from meh. If I was there, nothing he did would anger me enough to lose control and slip back into acting in a way that makes me feel ashamed of myself. I don’t think people are judging chumps for their swearing. I think they just don’t want to be exposed to it. There’s a lot to be learned here, and loving, supportive people, but some people can’t access it because of the swearing. And that’s okay. That’s their boundary. We don’t need to feel judged for swearing and get angry at them, too.

                January 9, 2016 at 10:57 am

                Trusting God, the solution for people who are offended by swearing is just to not visit sites that they are offended by. I watch what I say almost all the time. Not here, though. I think trying to control people’s speech on a site for adults about adultery is another way chumps are invalidated.

                Swearing isn’t a good habit, but it’s one I have. Adultery is an established sin. Swearing is not.

              • TrustingGod says

                January 9, 2016 at 11:38 am

                I understand that people have different beliefs. Mine are that not walking in love is the only sin, which is what I feel I am doing when I am cursing him out and angry…which tends to lead to unkind treatment of others when I have gotten all worked up. I’m definitely not judging others for swearing, merely observing that some chumps will avoid this site because of swearing and not take advantage of the few other truly helpful sites like Divorce Minister because they’re not Christians. Most other sites are just RIC or full of cheater apologists or other psychologically damaging ideas. Of course adultery is considered a sin. I just don’t want what my husband did to erase all the positive changes I’ve made and contaminate my faith anymore. It’s gone on long enough.

                I totally get what you are say, TG. The immediate building steam of anger that is set off in the early days of discovery needs an avenue to escape. Feelings descending from our brains to our mouth is a well laid path for vocalizing that pain. I believe this is a way that allows for (wo)man to discharge the incredible emotion of betrayal in a non violent physical form.

                Trust me on this.

                For most of us here on this site, potty works. It allows the pain to escape and the sometimes humor from those potty mouths gives us a well needed belly laugh or smile.

                It soothes.

                I feel for anyone who cannot get past the potty. Why? Because everyone here will surround you with love when you come bleeding and emotionally battered as understanding brothers and sisters in arms.

                The swearing will go away. I think most of us know this. For those who have managed to get through life without using cuss words, it is a temporary phenomenon. Well, at least as long as “those who shall not be named” is not in the room.

        I was shuttling a car full of boys one day and some guy cut me off. I heard the passenger window roll down, and glanced over to see my 14 yr. old son hanging his arm out the window, angrily jabbing his middle finger at the guy. The backseat boys were quick, I yelled ‘stop!’ but it was too late. Every hand had a signal. Wow, my role modeling is stellar. I should teach a class.

          I’ve started doing this whenever utility vans honk at me while I’m walking down the street (street harassment). We live in an area where everyone’s very nicey-nice, so I think even the utility drivers are shocked when a scrawny youthful-looking female walking by herself hauls off and flips them a giant, arm-wrenching bird. I’ve noticed that it hardly ever happens now…hope that means I’m doing my bit for effective pedestrian-to-driver communication.

      I use his name and when I reference the OW, I use her name.
      It empowers me to use their real names in private and in public. I don’t want any doubt in anyone’s mind who I am talking about.
      I don’t ever want to have my words used against me as being disparaging (in my decree).
      What I cannot use is Dad or ‘your father’. He lost the right to those titles when I speak with my kids.
      Interestingly, I curse like a sailor on a regular basis without a second thought.
      When discussing my ex and the woman who knowingly, meticulously and purposefully killed the hearts of a wonderful woman and two amazing sons, not using their real names seems like letting them off easy.

        I’m not above calling him and OW all the names in the book privately, or venting to a friend. Extreme shit has happened to us chumps. And it takes extreme language to name it, and to allow ourselves to feel and handle the anger we’ve been given. How dare people judge us for this. I would only accept that criticism if the critic has also gone and knocked on the cheater’s door and berated them for hours about their life-wrecking actions first.

        But in everyday speech I do the same as you, Rebecca. Fear of a name only increases fear of the thing itself, and as you pointed out, they don’t deserve the sweet sweet anonymity of code names.

        When speaking to our children, I refer to him as their “ex-father,” because he is exactly that.

        My daughter shortly after D-Day said the following: “My father is dead. There is a man out there who looks like him, but that is not my father.” He sends a card twice a year to each and makes no further efforts to see them.

        I could never choke out the MOW’s name because she has the same first name as I do. It was a unique shit sandwich, for sure. I have plenty of colorful nicknames for her, though.

        STBX is simply “fucktard” or “fucker” in my own mind, and those things and more online. But in real life I don’t use those words for him because I don’t want my children overhearing it. They even specifically asked me, after the separation, to call him “dad” or “daddy” as I always had before. Although I also used to say “your father” in a completely neutral way, after he left that began to feel hostile to them. Their request wasn’t about him being a wonderful dad (he’s not, and they know it, although he gives them just enough attention to string them along as narcissistic supply); it was about not wanting to be confronted with all the crap every time he had to be referred to for any reason.

        I agreed without any hesitation and to this day still call him “dad” when referring to him with them. It’s a shit sandwich for me, but it makes my children feel better, so like many others that the fucker served up, I swallow it for them. What a complete and unredeemable asshole he is.

      First thing I did was change his contact name in my iPhone to was “Idiotic Twat.” That seemed to take me to the right mental place I needed to be before I communicated with him.

      He’s not the person I thought I married, who was… actually human. So he didn’t deserve to be called by his name in my mind.

      He wasn’t bigger than me (mighty wise. He is actually much bigger). Or tougher. Or stronger. Or smarter.

      He’s an idiot. Who is annoying. That I CAN TAKE DOWN!

                Even seasoned therapists have trouble telling the difference between them until they start strangling puppies. One distinction I read was that narcs feel pain for themselves (but not for others), whereas sociopaths don’t feel pain for anyone. Take that with a grain of salt.

                Interesting Tempest. I haven’t heard or read that one. I guess it doesn’t really matter because they are all severely character disordered but it is interesting for sure. In the book “Sociopath Next Door” it talks about how the Inuit tribe calls these types of people “kunlegeta” which is similar to psychopath. If someone is labeled “kunlegeta” in the tribe they are forced to go hunting by themselves and then, with no witnesses, a tracker is sent after him to push him off the ice and into the water. Problem solved. I giggled when I read that.

                I don’t know how correct this is, but I read that the difference between a psychopath and a sociopath is that a sociopath lives on the fringes of society – it is immediately obvious that there is something wrong with them, they were damaged in childhood (usually) and are liable to smash things up and have little self-control. A psychopath, on the other hand, is an expert at blending into society, will manipulate and mirror, is usually conniving and strategic and was born that way.

                I’ve no idea whether that’s accurate, it’s really annoying there’s no clear distinction!

          Haha, KarenE–I usually refer to OW, now the fiancee of my X, as “Schmoopie.” I always change my voice when I say it, though. If you have ever seen Tony Curtis in the WWII comedy Operation Petticoat, imagine saying “Schmoopie” in the same tone of voice that Curtis called for Ramone. I love “Schmoopie” as a nickname, since you can say it so many ways to convey everything from ridicule to derision.

          For the XH? First, I love referring to him as XH, even more than STBX. In real life, I just don’t talk about him much. I started referring to him as “Mr Chuckles” or “Mr. Happy” because he’s clearly miserable most of the time. Also, there was a Chuckles the Clown in his native city, and I think that XH’s lying is so laughably obvious that he’s definitely a clown.

He is committed to his biological children until the youngest is 16. Let’s be clear, he has seen the kids for a total of four days since May 2015.

      The part that irks me is how he has downloaded the demise of his “marriage” to his desire to be in his kids lives until DS turns 16.

      Now my kids, most notably my DD, gets to eat the shit sandwich that she and her sibling may be the reason for the demise of another relationship.

          Farmville…..that is hilarious. I used to play that….. my stbx and I own a cattle farm….so the pink cow wandering into his field… too funny.
          since we own beef…that we sold to the public…..I call.him Burger Meister Meister Burger. He’s from the Christmas special The year without a Santa Claus.
          He’s been called the Governor. ..he thinks he owns everything.
          Her name is Migdalia….my girls couldn’t even pronounce it. He wrote on an envelope in phonics how to say it…..he rolls his tongue and makes this weird face. I can do it perfectly….cracks my kids up.
          I call her Miggie, MigMailya….she a mail carrier. And then I let the typical whore references fly. In court I have called her a whore. I told the judge it’s a biblical term.

          I never used to swear….my kids never heard either of us swear. His girlfriend texted me I was a Cunt. I never once ever used that word…..but now……
          Cunt cake
          CuntMuffin….waffle twat. She’s a mail carrier….so Mail slut, mail hole, hood rat, slut, slore, slunt, limp dick sucker, Swallow Back Girl…….
          I have tore up Gwen Stefani song….Hollar Back Girl…..

    I call him Narchole (as in narcissistic asshole) or Exhole on a regular day to day basis and exchange with everyday people and sometimes a whole lot of foul mouth things depending on the shit he has pulled at that given time. I am not a swearer but given the circumstances I have developed quite the potty mouth when I think of the asshole. Even then there is not a foul mouth word on this planet that can adequately capture who he really is. It’s just impossible.

    Well fuck me and the fucking horse I rode in on. How in the body hell do they expect us to express the mind fucked, soul shit upon, ass-clownery these bastard thrust (pun intended) on us. The assholes aren’t uncomfortable with the language, they are uncomfortable with us and the fucking situation we have been put in. They don’t want to hear about it, it scares the shit out if them and out of sight out of mind is their mentality. We have all seen this first hand when we have said something to certain people who will visibly cringe and pull away when we talk about what happened, they don’t even want to listen when the language isn’t coarse. My use of BBBHORE conveys just what I intend it to, combining the fact that she is a whore with where the where the fucking around started at. Maybe too much information but here in the relative anonymity of CN I think it paints the appropriate picture.

I don’t like insulting sex-workers (she was not a sex-worker) because there is so much shit and exploitation in the business. It’s an odd thing for me to have this stuff in my brain, rolling around from time to time like I have silent Tourette’s – and my sympathy to those who actually do have Tourette’s.

            I’m trying to work more references to OW’s character as a woman of negotiable virtue, and what that means for XH (“pimp” seems wrong), who basically bought what she’d give away for free.

            I’m angry, but I’m allowing myself to see the absurdity of the whole thing, and finding funny nicknames or descriptions is part of this. Plus, they’d both of them hate it if any of these terms stuck and word got around in our smallish community, even though I’m more in the “gown” circles than the “town” circles.

            However, when I was at a committee meeting and someone asked me how things were going with the divorce, another colleague, whom I don’t see often, offered sympathy. I thanked her, and told her that it was okay, as it turned out I’d married a lying, cheating asshole. 😀

Yes, sex workers get a bad wrap and all that, I don’t like using the term derogatorily. But… Many of the schmoopie affair partners are basically pay for play- they are jumping on their best chance at a step up sugar daddy/momma scenario… Which essentially makes them sex workers. They are often delusional and misinformed about their partners monetary situation but hey- players gonna play.

      Someone close to me has referred to him as ‘The Big C’. Something apt in likening him to cancer. His actions and their repercussions are like a spreading disease. That is very tame though.

      I’m far too polite to have a proper potty mouth and use profanities. But if pushed, I’d go for ‘Peacock Cunt’. More to do with his excessive preening, than the size of his penis. But you could read it either way.

    I’m a fan of CL’s “fucktard” for “he who shall not be named.” I call the AP/OW “easy prey”. But I can’t take credit for that. That is what he called his ho-worker (who was very pregnant with her husband’s baby at the time) this when I discovered affair and he momentarily tried to get me to pick-me dance. Yes. I married a “man” who would refer to another woman as “prey.” As if the lies and mind fcks and gas lighting wasn’t enough (I was also pregnant during this but sadly miscarried at 4 months) but this comment alone was enough to make divorce the only option. ‘Cause fuck that!

    • Blerg says

      January 8, 2016 at 9:05 am

      Easypray – Mine never said that, but that is exactly what he did. He went after prey (me, OW, etc.). It was a twisted, sick, game to him. It was such a mindfuck, because even though I still “loved him” near the end (maybe I should say my emotional system was still attached to him), I kept having these intrusive thoughts about what a predator and a misogynist he must really be in order to behave as he had. I was never able to let those thoughts pass, and eventually, I couldn’t stay. I remember looking over at him one day and thinking *Who the fuck is the man I actually married?!?. He thinks women are only objects to be used for his pleasure. He disgusts me.*

    Incidentally, early on, I once accidentally referred to OW as “SkankWhore” in Asshat’s presence, to which he responded “I will NOT have you talk like that about someone I respect!” I guess my coarse language upset his delicate sensibilities… Dickhead.

            He will also say things like: “I’ve not had the opportunity to check into that” (versus, “I haven’t done that yet”). I do have to quickly stop myself from replying: “And I’ve not had the opportunity to give a single fuck.” I know my violation of NC would be wasted on him.

            I think he believes this makes him appear high-class. Sorta hilarious if you knew where he came from and our respective positions in life post-divorce. But it’s all about the show for him, in his mind he is reading the lines.

I’m going to use that from now on to describe him, John Boy.. I have described him as coming off as a boy scout but I like John Boy, or one of the Walton’s better.
          Speaking of terms used, X referred to me as our sons primary care caregiver as opposed to referring to me as our son’s mother?

        That “episode” was a year ago, shortly after I kicked him out but before he’d officially found a place to go, so it was an extremely volatile time (to say the least.) I remember that comment unhinged me, and I think I went into a blind rage of cursing! I’m usually a very calm, even-tempered person, so this response surprised me. Later, I realized it came down to this: His SkankWhore was worthy of his “respect,” but his wife and children were not. While I regret that I completely lost my shit in front of him that night, I look back on it as a huge light bulb moment for me. That was not who I was… it was who he’d made me out to be.

Get him behind closed doors and he sounds like a hill billy, or a country bumpkin, condescending asshole, ridiculing the everyone, how he can go from one extreme to another has always baffled me. Especially now as he uses his charm in the courtroom to screw me.
            Sleazy, vile, repulsive, vulgar, revolting, hideous excuse for a human being.
            This just came to mind as I was listing adjectives to describe Cheater. He’s also a sneaky, heinous coward, he would never confront someone especially a man or anyone with any kind of authority, if he had a problem or complaint with anything in our neighbor hood or any service we received or someone offended him, he would write unsigned notes and mail these notes or letters to them, some would be long and insulting, ridiculing, condescending and insulting every aspect of them from their intelligence or lack of to the vehicle they drove.. slimy,weasel.. yuck!

    I love being a potty mouth. I do not apologize for it. Never will. When it comes to the ex (the fucking asshole who was a functioning alcoholic for our entire marriage, basically sat in a basement and drank each night and then because his family is uber wealthy (millions) and he could afford to do so (although his family’s wealth in no way fucking explains why, during our marriage, he salted away hundreds of thousands of dollars on a line of credit that was only in his name and of course, during disclosure discussions between lawyers, all we got was a fucking spreadsheet (really?) to explain the $200K debt)… divorced me for a 15 year younger, married with 2 kids woman that he was dating LONG before he even asked for a divorce well, as you all know, she’s not a woman in the true sense of the word as our families were well acquainted for many years. She is just now getting a divorce from her chump. But I digress…

    She’s a fucking skank. No better way to put it. ‘She’s a skank’ just doesn’t cut it.
    He’s a fucking liar. To me. To the kids.
    He’s a fucking thief.
    He’s a fucking cheater.

    …and ya know… it does feel good to express it just like that.

    January 8, 2016 at 8:21 am

    A mutual “friend” of all three of us – Fucktard, me, and the whore – used language that enraged me for its complete minimization of their actions: their “choices that went against their own social norms,” and “bad choices that went against their own personal commitments of what they want to live up to.” They “made mistakes which did harm.”

    Going topless in public (for a woman in the US) is a ‘bad choice’ that goes against social norms. : Failing to go to the gym after deciding to get in shape is a ‘bad choice’ that goes against a personal commitment you want to live up to. Failing to signal a turn and causing a fender-bender is a ‘mistake that did harm.’ What they did killed my soul, and seriously maimed my daughter’s soul.

    It was only when I went nuclear with my language that she even STARTED to get off her new-age, squishy, ‘don’t be judge-y’, ‘these are good people who made mistakes’ high horse (nah, new-agey, probably a llama) and start to get an inkling of the utter awfulness, and my rage and my despair.

    CL is right: ‘softening’ the language used about cheating makes it seem so much less awful than it really it. F-bomb away.

What.The.Fuck? He broke the hearts of his wife and two young boys, blew up our lives to go hump the OW and her fear is that he will get his heart broken when the whore will leave him?

    But because you’re a girl, you’re supposed to be nice. And it’s this desire to to be nice and fear of causing offense or disruption, that causes a lot of chumps to remain stagnant and make stupid decisions.

    For all your fiery rhetoric and stupendous profanity, you’ve never responded abusively to commentators on your blog, even the cheaters and OW who have written you letters or posted comments.

He looked at me with such shock and awe that I said “yes, it’s vulgar. What you did was vulgar.” End of 35 year relationship right there and then.

    As a woman of a certain age (okay, 51), I was raised to be a polite lady by typically conservative Southern parents. When married, my former husband thought it absolutely vulgar for a swear word to come out of my mouth. One the very rare occasions I used profanity to communicate my anger or distress, he would look at me with horrified revulsion and say, “Control yourself and don’t talk like a sailor.”

        January 8, 2016 at 10:56 am

        CE,
        I agree with the poster above – the prohibition on swearing applies only to women. It is society’s attempt to contain and control a woman’s anger. If you can’t say it, you can’t feel it. If you can’t feel it, it doesn’t exist. So, a woman’s profanity directly challenges the status quo.

        Who is admired for “taking the high road?” Women. The public image of the restrained, dignified, SILENT wronged spouse? Sandra Bullock. Maria Shriver. Elin Nordegren. Jennifer Anniston. Women who did not “stoop to his level” but “kept their heads held high” and “focused on the children.” Stay classy, Chumps!

          (interestingly, one of the books I’m reading on the harm of therapists pushing “forgiveness” is that it is the disenfranchised and disempowered who are most likely to be told to forgive their oppressors, and the author specifically mentions women. Fuck forgiveness, while we’re at it.)

          • Kelly says

            January 9, 2016 at 9:15 pm

            I agree, they tell us to forgive because they think there is no other choice, so we need to pretend that we are now okay with what happened. I’ll never be okay with it, I’ll never understand it, I’ll never be able to depersonalize it. Sometimes things just suck. Forgiving those who are neither repentant nor reformed is just silly. I have no interest in playing the fool any longer and I will never allow myself to be so powerless.

      I would call mine a three-timer, due to his involvement with his (8 years) long term stripper friend-with-benefits who charged a fee for services, but he was frequenting other stripper-prostitutes as well, so five-six-seven-timer-plus?
      The OW, the affair partner who provided free services, who was at-bat on d-day, is now officially his current “girlfriend.” He lives in her house and “works” from home while she works. And she isn’t special, because in those seven months he was cheating on me with her, he was cheating on her with the long term good friend stripper prostitute and the smorgasbord of others.

      In my calendars and documentations I ID him as NPS for narcissistic psychopathic sociopath. I don’t have any “names” for him, but I know he’s one of the modern day biblical demons. I don’t say it outloud, but to myself, I call him a cunt-stuffer.

No. He picked a woman the same age as me, 3 times divorced and a grandmother….who makes lots and lots of rock candy. What the fuck. (I have nothing against grandmothers and certainly hope to be one one day)

    I tend to cuss more when I talk about it compared to when I write about it. It pisses me OFF! I get Tourettes!

Here’s how I think about him in my head (Liar, Henry Rollins-style). It helps me to never go back to believing him.

        Henry Rollins is my Spirit Animal. I saw that band a dozen times or more, and he used to send me handwritten postcards in my teens and twenties. There is even an original Photo Print of him right above the Bless Our Home Keyrack at the front door.

        He’s been my imaginary husband since 1985, basically. His hair is white like Anderson Cooper now, though.

              YES. I consume all things Rollins. 🙂 Including his semicrappy indie B-Movie currently stinking up Pay-Per-View, He Never Died

              He’s not quite as bulked up these days, looks more like Uncle Fred from down the pub. But still a looker, a silver fox all the way.

              He also hosts Ten Things You Didn’t Know About on the History Channel.

The X I was married to had some stupid comments in reference to himself on his dating site profile. I’ll have to think to remember what they were. What I can remember is he had about a dozen photos of himself with his muscle shirts on and purposely posing with his arms flexed to show off his muscles. I wish I could remember some of his comments. They were some of the stupidest things I’d ever heard and I can’t believe anyone would have thought anything other than what an asshole but apparently they do.

    January 8, 2016 at 8:46 am

    I’d consider myself a relatively conservative religious type (although if you talk to some, I’m a flaming liberal because I believe in the ordination of women). I go to church every weekend, I send my daughter to Bible camp, I run a religious blog, and I got my bachelor’s degree from a very conservative religious school where you could get kicked out for having sex before marriage and things like that. I used to joke that if a swear word was in the Bible, you could say it, so “hell,” “damn” and “ass” were the only words on my OK list. From the time I was 12 to the time I was 32, I did not use any s-words or f-words. Not once. 8 hours of unmedicated, Pitocin-fueled labor with my son and a posterior delivery of his 9lb-5oz baby butt… no f-words or s-words.

    I found out that my husband was cheating on me and I cussed him out like a sailor. My XH also considers himself religious (Mormon, obviously not a very good one) and in 11 years of marriage I never heard him say any swear words (or even “poop” for that matter). He started telling me, “Watch your language!” and I said, “Oh, that’s great, you’re more upset that I’m saying ‘fuck’ than you are that you fucked that woman!” Swearing after penting up my rage and frustration for so long was really cathartic.

    I don’t have any particularly clever names for XH. I do recall telling him, “Fuck you and the whore you rode in on,” which I did think of on my own, though I know I’m not the first person to think of it.

      I learned this in a linguistics class in college: “Fuck” is known as an “internal intensifier.” It’s the only one in the English language. You insert it in the middle of another word to intensify your point. Linguistically, all native speakers of English (I have no idea if this would hold true for speakers of other languages, sorry) know exactly where to place the “fuck” (i.e., which syllable it should become). I still to this day remember my professor using the example of Lake Winnipesaukee to show that we could place the “fucking” in the right place (Lake Winnipe-fucking-saukee)!

    The cheater narrative is to romanticize cheating. They don’t fuckaround, they make lurrve.

    It’s not a washroom selfie with the toilet in the background, it’s connecting with their soulmate, so what if they take a shit while sexting with their soulmate, it’s admirable to multi task. They can shit, wipe, flush and be all sexy in the moment.

    Cheaters are having an “affair”, an affair is classy, even if the “affair takes place in a parking lot, a pay per hour motel, in the back seat of the family van, or exchanging groin pics while on holiday with your family.
    Yup….classy “affair”, they don’t fuck around, cheaters are appalled by foul language when caught.

    Poor cheater ears are sensitive orifices, ears are off limit, even though every other orifice in their body is fair game in the name of fucking.

My children have been put on the back burner by my X and 22 years younger Miss W so many times…. I feel it is fine if this is as potty mouthed as my children get because THEY HAVE ANGER AND PAIN TO RELEASE TOO.

    We also sometimes refer to her as a Dingleberry (you know the little piece of shit that gets stuck to your dog’s ass fur and won’t fall off). Ha

    As I wave in and out of MEH, the need for “Fucking Liar and Fucking Cheater and Fucking Asshole” has mostly disappeared. It pops up when he occasionally does something that hurts the kids feelings AGAIN.

    I choose to keep looking forward for me, and when I am forced to look sideways because he acts up… I try to just consider him a Sorry Victim of his own stupid choices!

    I never used to swear. It always seemed rather uncreative and pathetic in normal conversation, that someone could not express themselves without cussing.

    But once the cheating began, words failed me. The English language literally had no other words strong enough to express what I was feeling. So now I use them freely when discussing the situation.

    When my husband was cheating, I always made sure to refer to her when speaking to him as “your mistress.” He hated that. I told him that was simply the vocabulary word for who she was. But now that doesn’t work because she is his wife.

    Not to him, but to others, I have a special name for her. Her name is Stephanie so I call her Slutphanie.

    Him, I just call whatever comes to mind at the moment.

    I haven’t got a name for my cheater, but I have put the death march as a ring tone on my phone. This makes me laugh whenever he tries to call, and he is calling a lot recently as he needs money. Still if you go to the USA for new year then a skiing trip followed in Febuary by helicopter skiing in Russia plus a tax bill which will be due now, I can see why he might be anxious about the joint funds I moved into my account.

    When I did speak to him briefly before Christmas, I asked why he had not responded to my texts regarding my daughters birthday and Christmas arrangements. Too busy to respond apparently, well I am way to busy now to return his calls. But as I have been told by friends and in laws, shit happens so get over it. Perhaps they will give him the same platitudes.

    Turns out, my ex husband was heavily into prostitutes. After D-Day, when I would call him Whore-Fucker (to his face), he didn’t like it. I said “What’s the problem? You ARE a Whore-Fucker, aren’t you? You can call me Dog-Rescuer or Coffee-Drinker and I won’t take offense. What’s the problem?

    After I kicked his sorry ass out and only had to communicate with him via email, I changed it to calling him “John”. (Obviously, not his real name) He never commented on me calling him that and I figured it would look better in the courtroom if any of my emails to him showed up there.

    Now the D is final and I have no communication with him, it’s just Whore-Fucker when I have to speak of him. Direct and to the point.

      Hilarious. I laughed out loud.

      I wish I could change his display name on my phone to something like that (though he wasn’t into actual prostitutes, just slutty women), but my kids use my phone and I don’t want them to see something like “Whore-Fucker” when Dad calls.

    On a serious note, I do believe all the flowery language does minimize the serious nature of adultery. Tell it like it is, people. It’s adultery, married people fucking someone outside their marriage. It’s sinful and wrong. Not cute, romantic, special. Just wrong.

    • Buddy says

      January 8, 2016 at 9:41 am

      Elucidating the serious nature and devastating impact of infidelity is both an art and a science, and CL and CN do it better than any other resource I’ve discovered. That being said, I think this art depends on context and sometimes flowery language helps and sometimes hinders.

      I think the same thing goes for describing this wrongness and destruction and trauma without coming across as bitter vindictive losers that didn’t have the mojo to keep their spouse. Art and science.

      • conniered says

          I suspect Buddy was referring to how outsiders think of us if we sound “bitter” when we describe being chumped.

          • Buddy says

            January 8, 2016 at 4:41 pm

            conniered – Tempest is correct. I do not believe chumps are cheated on because of something they’ve done. My believe is that most chumps are contributing, engaged, giving, reciprocal, caring, empathetic spouses.

            What I love about CL and the folks who comment here is how well they articulate the truth about infidelity, the trauma of infidelity, and how they debunk the false narrative the cheaters cheat because their needs were not being met (i.e. as CL says “I wasn’t a smorgasbord of pussy” and “He had an emotional need for me to be 573 different orifices” – CLASSIC!!!)

            You can’t find this elsewhere on the internet.

      • brit says

        January 9, 2016 at 9:47 am

        The more I read about cheaters the more I realize just how sugar coated cheating is.
        In the majority of articles or books I’ve read if it isn’t said it’s implied that the Chump was somehow
        to blame. I think we have all read similar articles that suggest your X strayed because of what you wore to bed, you didn’t laugh hard enough at his jokes, what ever, it’s implied the Chump did or didn’t do something which caused the X to stray.
        Cheaters are excused and many times smiled upon and welcomed in social circles.
        If your a Chump we feel humiliated, a feeling of inadequacy, “friends” gravitate towards the cheater more so because they’re happy and fun. Chump isn’t as fun, Chump is worried, stressed and struggling to understand what happened feeling as if they’ve just been hit by a train.
        As we try and salvage our shattered lives while being looked down on as if we brought it on ourselves.
        Cheater walks out with the image of being a great guy, funny, fun to be around.. Chump had to have brought this on herself. She had a prize and blew it..
        I’ve learned being polite and poised, taking the high road by not saying anything or talking about what actually happened only excused the Cheater and made me appear as if I was guilty and to blame for Cheaters indiscretion.. as he said, he just couldn’t take me anymore.
        As if I had a mental illness and he couldn’t reason with an irrational person (Chump).
        If that were true, is that what you do when someone you love has a mental illness is leave them?
        The Switzerland friends and their understanding of what Cheater has done, comments which imply it was my fault.. no wonder Cheater cheated, you told Cheater to fuck off when you found out he was cheating, Chump, using language like that, no wonder he cheated.. ugh..
        Switzerland friends can piss off. Fuck them too.

      I like “Fucking Wife-Pimper,” Boudica. And the word origin also fits my X to a T (perhaps yours, too?): ‘pimp 1607, perhaps from M.Fr. pimper “to dress elegantly” (16c.), prp. of pimpant “alluring in dress, seductive.”‘

        Tempest, he was on the other end of the spectrum. In regards to appearance, my wife-pimper ex was a fly-under-the-radar guy: t-shirts, jeans and Keene shoes, A baseball cap
        to cover his increasing loss of hair. Quiet, unassuming, self-deprecating humor. The secret life surfaced about four months after the wedding. From the well-dressed, fashion-conscious, to Mr.Milqtoast,

      As far as profanity? I’ve never been one to swear. Oh my!! After d-day, every swear word in the book flowed outta my mouth! The language I used was filled with anger galore. My friends that heard me with new vocabulary pretty much summed it up with, “it’s good you are showing anger”.

    Ok, so coming from the south we all cuss but we know where, when, and with whom we can do so, you know there are social rules about cussing only in appropriate situations of course. But I must say of all the name calling I’ve done they all seem to have the root word Fuck, or are related to Fucking itself. Everyone knows what Fuck means and it is very visual conveyance which expressly emphasizes the degree of the so called Fuck.

    For example: Fucktwit, Fuckwad, Fuckedup, FuckYou, etc. all fully understood by everyone, no misunderstandings, clear and direct.

    Just for laughs, my whole life my mother’s generation always cussed without literally saying so… you know just switch a few sounds or words like son of a biscuit maker instead son of a bitch. One of my favorites was instead of blurting out fucking it’s more polite to say freaking. What a con game, everyone knows what you’re thinking anyway, might as well let it out Son of a Bitch, Mother Fucker, Whore Cunt, Dick say what you mean! lol

    I still remember the first time I heard my Mom really literally cuss, I was in the midst of torment about my now ex and letting the profanity fly to my mother(inappropriate by southern social rules) , and she said “Listen to me all I care about is you, I don’t give a FUCK about him!” Hahaha Yes Indeed!!!!! Seriously, this was a bonding moment, here was my mother and I cussing the god damn mother fucking lying cheating piece of shit dick head. MY FRIENDS THERE ARE TIMES WHEN WE NEED TO SAY FUCK THE RULES!!!

    Fucker pretty much what I call my ex, he Fucked ow, he Fucked me over, he Fucked up his life, he is Fucked up, ……

    Ahhh, it still feels so good to call it like it is, just the FUCKING Facts. However, I think I need to add some variety and spice things up a bit in my vocabulary. Some of these posts are hilariously clever!

    Wow your column hits spot on. I was just thinking about this the other day. Case in point…. I was visiting some friends one evening and got a call the next morning from one of them who said that the people we visited the prior evening did not like my language. I seriously could not think of what I said. Apparently it must not have been that bad if I was having difficulty recalling how I had offended someone. Something about my ex husband having a fucking affair I guess. Can you believe it? Its the the worse kind of pain someone can go through (and I think I mentioned that too) and these proper assholes focus on my language???? WTF???? The thing is is that the divorce talk was such a small part of the evening. There were a lot of people there and we covered a lot of ground about a lot of stuff yet still thats what they focused on. I do not understand why some people need to deflect the intensity of the experience with the focus on the language? God I hate these kinds of people. I think from now on I will do the “you know what… when you walk a mile in my shoes and go through what I did and see the effect on your kids then you can judge me but for now go fuck your condescending judgmental self.”

    When I talk about the divorce I don’t sugar coat it… “My ex was a selfish narcissistic lying sack of shit who cheated on me with a fucking whore and then tried to blame the failure of the marriage on me.” Thats usually my narrative. People look taken aback but seriously thats what happened and I love saying it and it feels powerful. I once had someone ask me to tone down the language. I said “really….. you really want me to tone down the language when my husband brought a $50,000 BMS convertible out of our joint account on my birthday and then took his whore to The Breakers for the weekend? You really want me to tone down my language when my ex husband has down so much damage to my kids they need to be seeing shrinks.”

      Chumpion – I found mobile phone records on D Day – with dates and times he texted / called her. It became very apparent to me that while he was washing his dick in the bathroom after we’d made love, he was also texting her. (Not that I kept a log of dates and times when we had sex you understand – but because there were hundreds and hundreds of texts and we had sex a lot – but especially in the evening, around about the times he was texting her – more tellingly – when I told him I was disgusted by that evidence, he never even tried to gaslight it – and believe me, he tried to gaslight tons of shit)! I physically threw up when I realised this must have been the truth. Took me a very long time to stop hurting myself with that information.

          Thanks Tempest. I’m glad to say my mind has stopped dwelling on that particular abuse, but for such a long time I just couldn’t stop thinking about it – that’s what I mean about hurting myself with that information. I guess our brains are desperately trying to get us to see, and then reinforce, that they truly suck. We tried wreckonciliation, but I could never truly enjoy sex with him again – (he tried to pressure me into the more shall we say adventurous avenues we used to frequent, but I just couldn’t – I knew those avenues meant fuck all to him when he had them before).

          When you try to tell people about the pain of being cheated on – how do you get to tell folk all the horrors. It’s not possible, is it? So I reckon a few fuckity fuck fucks are mild compared to the actual truth.

I call her schmoopie (thank you), even when I am talking to my lawyer. I have no problem cursing- but somehow making fun of the situation by (over) cursing takes away the seriousness of the hurt (for me). So even though I normally swear like a truck driver, I find myself cursing a little less. I am having a sad day so maybe my answer would be different tomorrow.

      I promise you, you can come here and curse like a fishwife daughter of a docker and we’ll all recognise you also hurt terribly.

If I ever have to share the same space with again (only for one of our children’s weddings or the christening of their children), he will be referred to as so and so’s father. Not my ex husband.

      That is the only tie I have left with him and that is the only one that will ever be acknowledged my me.

    During his tenure with me, the XBF maintained a relationship with his ‘former girlfriend’ ……In a failed attempt to throw me off the track, HE referred to her as the ‘town whore’…..

    I called her the ‘penis fly trap’.

    At last count, she’s been married EIGHT TIMES.

    I think I’m pretty mundane. My ex is “the fucking asshole.”

    His AP’s (who are best friends and co-workers, and who had group sex and individual affairs with him for over 15 years, including the one he married last summer with the other standing as “maid of honor”), are “the Worms”. This was a name chosen by my daughter because she could not bear to speak or hear their given names. When I’m in a mood? Then they are “those fucking worms.”

    As I noted above somewhere, to my children I refer to him as his given name, or “your ex-father,” since he does not see them at all.

    Honestly I’ve searched for years to come up with one or two word descriptions for my ex and his AP’s that fully capture and transmit the impact and horror of what he/they did. I used to go through the alphabet, a different letter for every day, and try to come up with names (i.e. on “A” day I would think of asshole, asshat, anus, appalling; on “D” day I would say douchebag, deviant, dipshit, dildo, devil; on “W” day of course it was whore, wretch, wanker, waste, wee willy; etc etc). I explored almost the whole alphabet, but nothing ever quite hit that nail on the head.

    Maybe when I read the above comments I will find the perfect descriptors (with lots of profanity thrown in, I hope!).

    On D Day ‘The Great I Am’ was utterly mortified that I was swearing at him. Like, for him, being a lying, cheating, duplicitous shithead was a lot better than saying the words ‘fucking bastard’. I figured out later (cos actually, he’d heard me swear before – things like ‘traffic was fucking awful’ / ‘the bastard plumber didn’t turn up) – that he just HATED that I had the moral upper-hand and so had to find something, anything to be disgusted at me for! LOL.

    Some time ago we had a poster who ended up running for the exit when her pouting and demands that Chump Nation stopped using ‘foul language’ was utterly ignored. She then went on to trash CL’s book on Amazon. Yep, there went one of those ‘sensitive types’ who, IMHO had a melt-down because she found some syllables offensive.

      My therapist calls him a narcissistic serial cheating sociopath with drug and alcohol addictions, pathological liar and asshole abuser.

      I never expressed anger before and my therapist asked, “where’s your anger”?
      Now it right here at the tip of my fucking tongue. Fucking asshole cheaters earn our anger and if I happen to see the Limited stick dick serial cheating narcissistic abusine sociopath I have no problem saying fuck you or flipping him off as he drives by my house. My anger keeps me safe. There’s a point of no return these disordered need to understand. My actions are warrented. Fuck being a passive victim. Warriors let it rip! Fuck the critics.

I even changed his profile pic to the Disney promo pic of the chicken with his little glasses waiting for the sky to clobber him.
    My new boyfriend ( also a chump) calls my ex the chicken pot pie, he’s gained the 80lbs I’ve lost since he left. She and her 3 kids can have that fat ass…..and my thanks…..she got a fat cheater, but because she held a gun to his head to get it done in a hot second I got a great settlement and a super nice new boyfriend. Thanks for taking the bullet sweetie……watch your 6, I’m sure he’s already seeking your replacement.

    Fucking snake works too. I like disordered fuckwit also. Entitled fuckwad. Dickhead. Prick.

    I don’t swear a lot in real life. So here is where I let the fucking angry shit fly, and fuck anyone who doesn’t like it.

    As far as ringtones go, his is now Godsmack’s Keep Away. I’ve yet to hear it, but if he ever does call me, it’s a quick reminder to stay NC.

X started out as “MyHero (heavy sarcasm)” but many here said he needed a new name. So, I tried out Mr. Situational Ethics which was too long. I now refer to him as Haggar the Whoreable and his whore as Madame Slutface (she was the ex-girlfriend that just couldn’t go away it seems). But I think cumdumpster for her is more appropriate. And the other OW EA, I refer to as BDSM Broad. And there are likely more….

Whenever I thought about my ex’s name, there was the “F-you” in front of it. The cuss words swirled like angry bees buzzing around my brain. It was a really weird experience. I wonder if there’s some kind of neuronal path that lights up when you’re really angry that’s connected to cuss words? Now that I’m living a peaceful life, those words don’t enter my head at all.

    I’m a big offender myself when it comes to this kind of thing. However, in writing or in public, as you are here, I think it isn’t that hard to show some control. Like you said recently about giving in to the temptation to lash out at OW when provoked, if it feels good, you probably should not do it. Sure it feels good to let your anger out as foul language. It does not make you look intelligent or rational. It weakens your points. As much as I personally might also do it, when I see you do it, I cringe.

    Such big assholes, so few cuss words available to describe them.

    Cuss Words – God’s way of providing descriptors when conventional language is simply not enough.

    I have called the EX so many things in recent years, few of them complimentary. I noticed the longer I was in a relationship with him, the more I cussed. Hmmm. Imagine that.

    Some things I’ve called him:

    Flaming Turd from Satan’s Ass (because just calling him a “turd” could not clearly define the level of shittiness that is him).

    Fucking Asshole; Fucking Motherfucking Asshole; Satanic Motherfucking Jackass; Mini-dick Motherfucker.

    I have frequently referred to the OW as Past(wh)or(e) in a hat tip to her current chosen line of work as a minister. I have referred to them as a couple as Dr. Evil and Fat Bastard as he is pure evil and she has put on some pounds in the years since husband number 2 and latching onto Whoremonger Cheater (whom she hopes to make husband number 4). I have also referred to her as the Wildebeest and as Misery (hat tip to Kathy Bates’ character in the movie [and book] of the same name). The Misery name came from the fact that OW is batshit crazy (seriously undiagnosed PD) and she may hold him prisoner by hobbling him if he ever tries to leave her. Sometimes she is just referred to as Asshole Bitch.

    I actually refer to each of them, if I speak of them at all, by whatever pops into my head at the time – and that is dependent on why they are being mentioned in the first place.

    Fuck the Pearl-Clutching Fuckers and may they forever kiss my ass.

I find it very funny that if I say it in front of my STBX, such as, Your fucking whores, or, You were fucking some woman on the day of my mothers memorial service instead of with me getting ready! He just shakes his head at me and says, Jen, you should not use such language…why are you talking like that, must you say that, you never use that word. And he looks at me as if I’m pathetic.

    January 8, 2016 at 1:27 pm

    “jackass” is my name of choice for the cheater, obviously. I picked that because Aaron James’s book “Asshole: A Theory” postulates that an asshole is someone who systematically takes advantage of other people, who sees himself as special and entitled to special advantages over others. I thought about “asshole” as my name for him but preferred the more literary “Jackass,” a term that Shakespeare uses metaphorically to great effect–as in Bottom having the body of a man and the head of a Jackass. Hence, Jackass.

    A couple of friends have a number of names for the MOW. Lots of them had to do with the fact that she can’t write words on social media without changing the spelling–biggg azzz. loooovvvve, Not worth repeating. I’ve come to see her as just another victim of Jackass’s jackassery. She has since separated from her husband and from what I hear has had a hard time of things. He dumped her pretty quick once their affair was out in the open with me. He had a lot of reasons to not get tangled up in with her publicly, as she has 3 kids and they live in a neighborhood where everyone knows everyone else and he would be vilified for being a home wrecker. It was pretty clear that she got badly hurt when he cut and ran and then the marriage collapsed. What goes around, comes around. Once of the great benefits of “meh” is I don’t care enough about her to give her a name. She’s just another in a long line of women Jackass has conned. And she won’t be the last.

    In public, I still use the term ‘THE EX’.

    Something interesting happened on my way to ‘meh’ and to healing, the Term I used for him (and the way I saw his ‘digressions’) changed. Follow me on this…
    immediately after DD#2, the term was: my ex husband & the OW#2 was ‘Uni-brow’
    then years after (& before finding CL), it was: DOG (as in if you looked it up in the urban dictionary, you’d see his face) or Hot-Mess
    today, I use: Fucktard (OW#2 didn’t last very long, but I still like ‘Uni-brow’)

    I have been racking my brain to come up with a polite way to accurately describe someone who intentionally and systematically lies, gaslights and exposes the ‘love of their life’ to STDs for a over decade.

    Yup – Fucktard fits.

He has fucked so many women, both professional sex workers, random co worker lays to his decade long fuckfest with the Rectum of Wonder, the MOW, that it is difficult to process without outrage. Yea, I swear a lot here. Not in my day to day life though.

    This entire entitled, abusive mess is too big to wrap up with niceties. It’s ugly, disgusting and gross. I think it’s appropriate to use foul language to address the magnitude of shit dumped on us.

  127. Her Blondeness says

    January 8, 2016 at 2:34 pm

    So many funny names. My poor screen and keyboard.

    Usually online I refer to Cheater #1 and Cheater #2 so everyone can play along at home and keep all the fucktards straight.

    Back when I first found out about #1’s cheating, I was disappointed that English doesn’t really have a good word for a promiscuous male, like slut or whore. Cad or gigolo imply a certain cachet. Therefore, true to my solution providing consultant self, I coined an acronym to describe his fucking around, cheating, low life ass: SWAP or slut with a penis. Slut because he’s not *even* a whore – at least they have the good sense to charge for their services. All he ever did was service, so to speak. He was SWAP in my phone until about four years ago, when Jr. started using my phone to call his poor excuse for a father. Now he is only Ex in the phone.

    #1’s OW were a “type”. Not exactly what you’re envisioning, like a tall, skinny blonde or a voluptuous redhead. Naw, his type was and still is convicted felon drug user. Extra points if she’s missing teeth and has gangsta tats. (Needless to say, I had every STD test known to modern medicine after d-day. If there was a nasty cooties test, I would’ve given a sample for that, too!) So, I just lump them all under one name, Felon. Thanks for making it so easy, asshole.

    As for #2, he is just known as Hypocrite. He changes the situation to whatever makes him look best. Like most hypocrites, he elicits only so much as an eye roll and a “yeah whut eva” at this point.

    His MOW (now getting divorced, poor sausage) has earned so many more creative nicknames, mostly to combat the double betrayal since she was my close friend, too. Since she and #2 are in the same bicycle riding club, her nicknames run to things like Everybody’s Ride, The Club Bicycle, Interchangeable Seat. Also, for shorthand, the Skinnyskank.

    So cathartic to let it out.

    Language and expression.
    We had been married for 25 years and together for 30…with two teen aged children.

    On the first weekend I was speaking over the phone with my late husband after I discovered his betrayal , I had referred to his relationship with OW as an ‘Affair’… I could hear the anger in his voice and I guessed that he did not like the term “Affair”. Boggles the mind.

    So I explained, that when one member of a married couple choses to have sex with a person outside of the marriage, that is generally considered to be an Affair. But if he had another term to use that was more appropriate, I’d be glad to consider using it. Gosh, he couldn’t come up with one. I was real nice and reasonable about it, trying to stay calm.

    Flash forward a month later and I was screaming at him: “It gives me no pleasure to say that the father of my children is a ‘SLUT FUCKER’.” So much for nice.

    I had plenty of names for the OW… borrowed from many sources: Holemate, Jabba the Slut, Frankenbitch, to name a few also a play on her given name. I now refer to my late husband as CheaterPants. Its not as filthy as what I called him while he was actively cheating.

    What I found really irritating was that when CheaterPants and I went to ‘counseling’, the counselor was hung up on me calling the Holemate anything except her given name. (And I was holding back on what I really wanted to call her.) It was like the ‘help’ we had hired was holding my head underwater, and assigning some kind of dignity to the Interrupting Cow that CheaterPants had taken up with.

    Fired the counselor, who, like Cheaterpants, did not wish to witness or accept my anger and rage.

    I like the name Coleslaw, but thinking that I might assign the Holemates’ side`dish name as ‘baked beans’

    I LOVE to curse/cuss. I limit myself though around some that are not fond of it…..and I never cuss in front of a man. (yea, I guess it’s the old fashioned way of thinking) In fact the fuck head, fuck face cheater NEVER got a piece of my mind or cursing! I think that’s why it’s all bottled up inside. I just ate shit, stayed kind, and he skipped off into the sunset with his strippers. He doesn’t care what they do for a living as long as they are young.
    So now, my turn. If I had the chance I’d let him know what a cock sucking, no good rat mother fucker, pedophile, pussy fuck liar he is. He was nothing near being a real man. He paid everyone around him to do his dirty work; he’s a big chicken shit and he sounds like a scared kitten when he talks to men that have greater status/clout than he does. PUSSY!
    I’d get a whole lot more verbally expressive (vile) but I don’t want to potentially offend anyone here.

    I’m a pretty strait-laced person. I don’t typically swear very much. However… cheating brought out the salty sailor in me. What my ex did was HORRIBLE. He betrayed me, put my health in jeopardy, used our money on his whore, neglected me and my three children to chase her pathetic tail, and led me to believe we had a marriage that simply didn’t exist. Fuck that. No other words can be used to describe his behavior. He’s a sad little fuckwit who lives by his penis (and his uninspiring bedroom techniques); he thought that fucking his Ashley Madison piece of white trash was more important than the health and welfare of his partner of 17 years and our three children.

    He’s a fucking piece of shit who deserved to be punished for his breach of contract (breaking our marriage vows), theft (spending marital assets on his extramarital asshole), and assault (fucking a whore without using protection and then sleeping with me without protection). However, none of that happened. He got away with his deceit, his endangerment of my health, and the jeopardization of my financial future, so I think I’m allowed to say fuck him and fuck his whore, whom I also refer to as Jenislut, the Stepmonster, and my ex’s little sister (it’s gross how much they look related and how she looks like a 12-year old).

    At the very least, we should be allowed to swear about it. However, that doesn’t fall in line with the narrative that the rest of the world thinks we should follow– we deserved to be cheated on because we were somehow lacking and drove our loving partners away, and on top of that, we should strive to be kind and forgiving since the cheating was, after all, all our faults.

    Yes, I’m a chump, but I am NOT to blame, and I will not pretend that cheating is okay! Fuck no!

She laughed out loud. Much-needed comic relief. The “friend” from work who he has been fucking since before he left last year is simply called “whore”. Sometimes she’s “stupid whore”.

But my first cheater ex, years ago, I dubbed “Cockjouster” (he was very into the Ren Faire thing) and the OW “Jelly Donut”- she was a heavy fake-tanned blonde woman who stole everything I’d left at his place and immediately dyed her hair to look more like me. The effect was like a jealous donut.

    Cursing feels good for sure, but I’ve found it’s best to do a quick appraisal of your surroundings before cutting loose. My stbx was playing the role of “the whipped husband” when we had company from out of town. I bit my lip, and played the role of June Cleaver until he left with our guests. Then as soon as they drove off I unleashed a tirade of profanities. I was just winding down when I remembered that one of the house guests had not been feeling well, and may have stayed behind…. I couldn’t bring myself to ask, and if they were home, they didn’t tell. So although my cathartic episodes have kept me from going insane, they aren’t without risk!!!

    I have developed a terrible potty mouth since discovered my STBX of 43 years was fucking his secretary, and he also prides himself on seducing idiots (secretary and brain-damaged addicts) on the telephone. So here is the “rich” part (to quote my hero Nora E), STBX is incensed that I describe his sexual activities in detail, such as fucking his secretary in a Fremont, CA parking lot (middle of the day) while she was standing bent over with her dress thrown over her head. STBX says my mind and mouth are in the gutter, and I am disgusting for describing this. Tell me what part of this disgusting? His fucking stunt with his moronic secretary or my gall at describing it in such detail. I would like the Chump Nation to tell me.

He announced to them on the 23rd that he had been in a relationship over a year which he had Failed To Mention – and that she was arriving on the 4th. Chumps, he had an affair on them.
    They were Very Upset at the reception. She was Very Upset that they hadn’t ‘accepted’ her. She had a hissy fit.
    They went into the main bedroom together that night, with the teenage daughter next door, and have been there ever since. I know, because I get the anguished texts.

    I agree with CL that discovery of an affair is worthy of all the explicatives I could throw at it.

    But…that’s not my style. I curse mostly when I’m joking about something. Not as much (only sometimes) when I’m angry.

    And actually, although I had plenty of devastating feelings, I did my best to control them while dealing with the cheating wife, or even when describing what she did.

    I was trying to show her that she could hurt me, but she couldn’t control me. My reactions to her infidelity were, about 85% of the time, carefully considered. I learned after the first three months to remove emotion from my expression, lest I be accused of being “too angry,” and was *almost* always successful afterwards. My wife HATED that I did that, given she was much better at manipulating me when I got emotional. In other words, my avoiding cursing was part of the way that I took back my power. It was my way to discipline myself to keep my eyes on my goals, and not on my emotions.

    I’m not saying this was the entirely correct way to go. Yes, it removed me from her power, but it also compartmentalized and delayed the pain…which eventually had to be dealt with.

    Three months into divorce, arguing about $$ over e-mail, I let loose one night. I still didn’t call her names or curse, but I did plainly lay out that this was ALL her fault for reasons X, Y, and Z, and I wasn’t going to put up with these petty snipes about $$, or her manipulation, given I didn’t create this situation.

    That night created a “release.” I curled up on the strange bed in the dingy apartment in the sketchy neighborhood, and I cried like I never cried before. I let the pain take me over, so much so that it felt as if I’d perish if I fell asleep, and I felt the piece of me that was my stbx begin to wither away.

    It was excruciating. I realized that eventually I’d get to a point in my life where I wouldn’t even know her or have any interaction with her, so for all intents and purposes, she’d be “dead” in my world, and she was beginning to die that night.

    …It took another few months for me to accept that she couldn’t die, given the person I thought she was never existed in the first place.

    I usually just refer to my Ex as “the asshole” when talking to family members or friends, or sometimes, “the idiot.” Back when I still cared about where he was living, friends and I referred to that place as “Loserville.”

    In the past I’ve referred to OW as the whorebag, and to the two of them as Boris and Natasha because she is about 6 inches taller than him, though I’ve never seen them together in person, just in photos. What’s really funny is that over the years my Ex reveled in “talking dirty” to me with his domination fantasies, and unbeknownst to me, after DDay a family member apparently emailed my Ex a string of stick things that Ex used to say to me. Later, Ex’s attorney complained to mine, saying that Ms. Muse had perpetrated “the most DISGUSTING insults at Ex” and that the “Federal and State authorities had been notified.” Seriously? My attorney replied, Ms. Muse’s family member did this w/o her knowledge and furthermore, the family member “was merely repeating words that Mr. Asshole had repeatedly spoke to Ms. Muse many times.” It was never mentioned again. I hope his attorney asked him what exactly it was that he had said to Ms. Muse that had offended him so, when it was said to him (“down on your knees!!!! worship my cock!!!!!! he didn’t like it when someone said it to him poor wittle baby boy.)

    I call the 28 year old assistant the ho-worker. After she sent me an email in July to serve the dual purpose of making sure “I knew” and absolving herself of all blame – e.g. That he kissed her first, that he got her pregnant and talked her into an abortion and that he told her he had never loved anyone like that before and that she felt stupid for believing him – I labeled her contact in my i-phone as SATAN
    I call my 55-year old husband – who cheated on us for 2-plus years and made me feel paranoid about his “working late” – DISORDERED
    Both names seem accurate and descriptive

    As for colorful language…

    Im a decent, loving, respectful Catholic grandmother who cares for dying children for a living…

    and when Im in my car alone, Im known to say things (since he is in Purgatory he may very well hear me)

    “You were a FUCK-ER…a FUCKER who fucks things and people. You fucked your girlfriend you fucked your family, you fucked your Church, you fucked your employer and career. ”

    When I was young and I first saw the word “fucker” I didnt really know what it meant…I really didnt know what a real FUCKER was until I was 50.

    I have no idea what word would work better in that context … I dont cuss in front of strangers or little kids, its contextual, but HERE……F-U-C-K-E-R, yea, that does it.

    Wow – some great anger here…love it.
    I made an entire new dictionary for the 2 slimeballs, and I spewed this stuff to everybody I met the 1st 2-8 wks. I’m so glad the hugs (all women) gave me – STRANGERS. In a Safeway store. I was calmer by then, but this is what my 3 sisters and 1 bro heard from my mouth when I found out. No idea where these came from and now horrified looking back. One honest sister told me I’d turned into the Exorcist…and she was right. But, I’ve toned it down a lot, 2 yrs later.

    First – anger at HER – my ex BFF (I had terrible words for her for such betrayal)

    *Her cunt slime stinks (just finding her panties in my bed)

    *She wears cheap whore underwear that is frayed lace

    *She shaved her pubes in MY shower – puke.

    *She’s a mother-fucking-homewrecking slut that used as the 4th affair in her 3rd marriage to …ahh..snag HIM?

    To Him: where my anger really finally fell.
    The trollop was TRASH – waste of time.
    All done.

    *Him: he turned himself from a very honorable member of our little town. A town consultant on business. Everybody loved him and he loved his reputation.

    And, just >>that<< fast – he lost it!

    He left all his friends, our dogs, me and everybody who he got to know after 21 yrs here.
    With his tail between his legs.

    *So, I add huge coward!

    *Now extremely secretive about where he lives – thankfully no children.

    *I hear he's fat and has big health issues now that he's 60…

    So, since that includes a missing prostrate, I wonder – actually, NO, I NO longer wonder if he misses our life together. He left for his penis, which he never spent much time on me with. And, I doubt he's a pump-kind of guy.

    I'm happy, spending the 3rd night in my leetle new (old) home with my two Danes.

    And, I haven't thought about him until, well, now. I never want him to see my home.
    So different than the one he built for 'us''.

(p.s. he was not denied at home and never requested this particular act. I thought a B.J. was a “hummer” . I didn’t know you had to hum . But I did avoid the swallow when possible.) Anyway, I refer to her as the Cum Dumpster Garbage Can Mouth. Also,Cunt Face. Sorry. That’s what has come out of MY mouth.

    What a great thread! I’ve loved reading through these posts and seeing all the creative ways folks have found to cope with such raw, unimaginable pain. You guys rock!

    I used to call OW “Lady Bountiful.” She’s one of those sickening and ingratiating do-gooder types who attempt to infiltrate the family unit with conspicuous acts of generosity–funny, though, how the generosity dries up if there’s no social media photo or clandestine fucking involved. BLECH As for shithead ex, I got myself in trouble with my kids because for a long time after D-day, I’d go off on these swearing rants without even realizing it. It was almost like having Tourette’s. Goddamn motherfucking piece of shit asshole motherfucker, and etc. etc. They were on me night and day about it. I really didn’t want to upset them more than they’d already been upset, so I started inserting all the invective into song form. That way, I could let it rip, but the net effect was that they thought Mom was just in a really great mood while steam-mopping the kitchen floor. You could really pick any song, but for a long time it was the Hallelujah Chorus (You’re an asshole! What an asshole! You asshole! You asshole! You fucking asshole! You are a mother-fucking asshole! You asshole! You asshole!). Then it was Yankee Doodle Dandy (You’re a motherfucking asshole! You’re a motherfucking ass!). Eventually I moved on to songs from the 80s, and you guys don’t need to know how I tortured tunes from Duran Duran and Tears for Fears. Anyway, my kids heard me getting things done in a cheerful mood, but I got to channel some rage. It worked out really well for all of us.

    These days, I find myself wondering how any of it even happened. At 2.5 years out, it’s just so crazy to imagine how I could’ve stood that shit-show for as long as I did. So now, I don’t call OW anything, not even Lady Bountiful. She’s just some chick, and there’s not one single special thing about her. I’ve learned enough about character disorder to understand that if it hadn’t been her, it’d have been someone else. As for my ex, all the inspired invective is gone. He’s just a garden variety asshole. Good riddance to them both, and I’ll save my creative language for people who are more worthy of the effort. 🙂

    I call OW JayJay Butterface. Originally I called her Vajayjay, which morphed into Jayjay. Then I ran into her in a cosmetic store and she looked really greasy with a couple of boils on her face. So I just had to add the butterface.

So now I call him Rufus, because we all know that I mean Doofus without saying it. But my phone, ah my phone. I replaced his picture with a pretty floral peace sign. If I have to have him on my phone it should be an image that makes me happy while reminding me that having him gone is like living in a peaceful garden. Plus, the children wouldn’t have cared for an image of steaming dog poo.

    After spending 3 months of trying to answer why the now exH would do this again (2 DDays, 6 years apart), I let my anger fuel me. Literally, I let it take over and with that came the FUCKING FUCKITY FUCK FOUL LANGUAGE. I’m sorry, no one is going to tell me that saying the following doesn’t feel good: fuck him, fuck no, fuck that, oh hell to the fuck no, etc. Of course, I say it with fucking class and fucking sophistication, as I’m sure we all here at CL/CN do!!! ?

    As for naming the exH, my little sister penned him PD for pencil dick. We had to abbreviate bc my kids use my phone to communicate with him. It makes me grin from ear to ear. My little sister has a way with words and this is the nicest she’s penned him. She does not have a high tolerance for abuse.

    Gosh. I have a million. For the pearl clutchers and tu-tutters, I say this:

    Going from love to betrayal to indifference involuntarily is a soul erasing experience. The middle part, the betrayal and detachment on the way to indifference, requires voluntary detachment and an activereversal of the previous attachment. IT IS HEALTHY TO FOCUS ON THE REASONS THIS PERSON IS NO LONGER IN A POSITION OF TRUST OR WITHIN STRIKING DISTANCE.

    This is the boundary that leads us back to a healthy safe place.

    And that is why the ex, the Hasbeen, the Wasband, is also known as Cold Slab O’Meat, Slabbo, Turtle Dick, Cheese Crotch, Boil Back, Dump and Pump, Romeo McMedicare, Stupid Taffy, Alfred Bitchcock, Mountainous ManWhore, Dead Weight, and the Douchecanoe of Emulsified Dick Meats.

    The Baby Cooker CoWorker is, Bruce Springteats, The Skank, Schmoopie Forever or Three Months, Beatrix LeStrange Fruit, The Cuntington Sperm Bank, Lunch Pump, Warm C(r)ock Pot, Hot Pot of Snot, and He Loves You NOT.

If you’re all about precision of language, I can describe every hideous thing they did to me and my kids in detailed and clinical language. But then you’d need therapy.

          So far, he hasn’t been in contact, so blocking him is unnecessary. If he becomes unhinged enough to actually try to call me, his new ring tone is “Keep Away” and his name in my contacts is Whatever.

          I think there would be some empowerment in jamming through a kickass fuck you ringtone, and think “whatever” if/when he does call.

Lets just say if I still lived in the same town as him I would be either in jail…or he would have killed me!

      SO……all of the fuck words in the world don’t do mine justice. He is simply just A PIECE OF SHIT. Because, you see, a piece of shit is pretty much as low as you can be in the human and animal world….you are every living thing’s waste product, you are toxic, you are useless to all and everything, and at best you can be used to spread through out farmers fields to help things grow……..so my STBX is only useful in the field of narcs to help his lying cheating world grow into something that just gets cut down and eaten and turned into more shit. A piece of shit has no personality or no remorse, a piece of shit has no value and if not “expelled” from our lives it creates illness and disease and sometimes death. A piece of shit is a part of a long line of shit that keeps going and going….it is a part of our lives…..but we can decide how to deal with shit……we can let it destroy us or we can treat it as a daily routine that is easy to get rid of or hard as hell…but eventually we all need to figure out how to make the shit easier and treat it as a daily event that comes and goes without stress, pain, etc etc. I am trying to deal with the piece of shit day by day (and all of the shit spray that goes with him)…….but I will get there……..thanks to all of you and chump nation……I will get there.

      And those that are delicate and offended by the new book (BIBLE) coming our way thanks to our fearless leader…..best not read it cause they won’t relate!!!

      I have interrupted severe crying jags and panic attacks on various occasions. Jeez. Good fucking medicine.!

      I even wrote a long paragraph using fuck in every possible form grammatically, just as an entertaining exercise and put it through the shredder.
      Just in case there is a pearl-clutcher reading this.

    I wish that I could think of a satisfying profane name for my abusive STBX. I can’t think of any great names for him–I went to divorce court yet again this week (for the umpteenth time). Because my STBX is trying to legally, financially, emotionally, and physically trying to eradicate me as demonstrated by his latest false, insulting, and absurd legal brief, in which he demands that I pay him for him taking me to court and tells the Court that he should be exempted from paying child support in arrears–just because he doesn’t feel like working and paying!–and he is paying virtually nothing for the divorce as he is pro per while I hemorrhage money to my attorneys who can’t seem to help me, all I can think about when I see him is how I want to hit him across the face with a two by four. When I don’t see him, as I am getting paid very little in my part-time work and can’t find a full-time job in spite of education, certifications, and experience, all I can think about is fear of poverty, especially for my young children.

    I’m finding clueless twatwaffle more and more fitting for the OW I know for sure about. She seems to have no fucking idea their relationship is outside the boundaries of a professional friendship, and she’s fucking been chumped by HER ex. And somehow thinks this married guy traveling with her, whining about his horrible wife while paying her splendiferous compliments and playing the ever so chivalrous gentleman with her isn’t fucking coming on to her…

    Maybe I see it so clearly because he used those same splendiferous compliments on me those many years ago when he was first trying to get in my pants?

    Haha, so funny! I am a very manner women UNTIL this FUCKING ASS BULLSHIT. I curse when discussing all the wacked ass crapola that we all experienced. It is so mind numbing, mind blowing, there are not words in the dictionary and FUCK is like a wild card word and the release it gives. It implies intensity of emotion, raw feeling, disgust, bewilderment, awe, pain, even humor. So when the person who pointed out the POTTY mouth of discussion and advise WELL just wait until she joins us! See what F bombs she throws out there, LOL.

    LOL, the profanity of the profaned. Assholes, male or female unleash the potty mouth in us all. I normally don’t call x anything except x or my children’s sperm donor but refer to him as douchebag and fucktard when swearing. My mother never ever swore in my presence except to call him a fucking asshole. My sister-in-law refers to him as asstard and my brother refers to him as fucking asstard.
    I don’t call any of his conquests names as I feel nothing about them (in some circumstances a prostitute doesn’t need to be vilified for the actions of her john).
    Asshole seems to be a favourite word in my family and circle of friends.
    But Jake from State Farm my god takes the proverbial cake. Love the inventiveness of everybody here.
    Fervently agree fuck is a good adjective, adverb, verb, pronoun, noun, subjunctive pronoun etc to describe a piece of slime who basically shat upon their vows.
    Anybody who objects to me using salty language to describe x has never been profoundly betrayed or disappointed by a shitty person.
    Forgetting my birthday you’re stupid, forget your kid’s birthday you’re an asshole, spend the family funds to send fuckbuddy to Disneyland instead of feeding your kids you’re a fucking piece of slimy asshole.

    ” Alas, my husband didn’t fall in love with his mistress compelled by Forces Greater Than Us All — it was a deliberate CON.”

    You know what, that is fucking true. A con!!!! After 30 years together he had to work REALLY HARD to keep that secret affair going for so long. I mean, they had to plan it, carefully and deliberately, on a daily basis. Then lie continuously to me. FUCK HIM.

    As I smashed my tennis racket, repeatedly, onto my defenseless but very forgiving couch cushions, I hollered, “You.. Fucking.. Lying.. ASShole!” I alternated strikes with, “Fuck YOU!” This rage was MUCH better than my earlier state of mind – feeling hurt, depressed and suicidal. I recommend this as good therapy with two caveats: 1) don’t do this in front of innocents and 2) don’t throw out your shoulder!

    Love you guys and thanks to CL (yes, Tracy, you are a LADY! Chumps are ladies and gents until rightly angry at the injustice of being abused by others).

    I have the ho-worker in my contact list still, *just in case* and for shits and giggles. Her photo is of a bleach blonde, poor make-up, stringy-haired old woman. It’s eerily similar to her unfortunate looking face. I use a combination real name/swear name. That Old Bitch Jodie. Oh, and she’s listed under the “Useless Fucking Cunts” contact list. Population: 1. It might be juvenile but it makes me smile every time.

    The irrepressible music legend / mystery novelist / Jewish cowboy Kinky Friedman gets at how we confuse swearing with serious issues when he introduces one adult-themed song by asking his audience to cover the ears of any kids who are present. He explains, “I hate to say fuck in front of a C-H-I-L-D.”

    I am a swearer. I think fuck adds a certain emphasis like no other word. That said, I realize it’s not an attractive way to speak all the time. Adulterer hated swearing. In fact, he really never swore. I said “shit” a lot, and he commented once about how I did. Just one of the things he grew to not like about me over the years, I suppose. In a few angry texts, I called him an asshole. His name on my phone is “Dick.” His assigned ringtone is “Were you born an asshole.” Unfortunately, he only ever texts me so I haven’t had the pleasure of hearing that song. He’ll never call. Our relationship has become so hate-filled (thanks to me, really…he tries to be *nice* and I just can’t) that I am sure he is afraid to call me for fear I will go off on him.

    When speaking of him to others, I usually refer to him as the adulterer and to her as the adulteress. I can’t speak her name. He used her name recently in a text to our daughter, and I cringed. Sadly, it is also the name of my grandmother, whom I never met. I always had a lot of curiosity about that grandmother and have done a lot of research on her life. Had I thought of it when my daughter was born 21 years ago, she would have been named after her. Imagine that. If my daughter had the same name as the adulteress.

    At first I changed his name to ASSHOLE, ring tone to an angry duck quacking and his picture to one I took of him passed out drunk in the kitchen chair 😀 Now I am NC so I am SATAN FREE and peaceful.

    I live in an ASSHOLE FREE ZONE and almost all healed up and VERY HAPPY.

    I passed him in traffic last week in my ‘new to me’ Jeep and, while he oogled me, I don’t think he knew it was me 😀 LATER ASSHOLE SATAN! 😀

    I refer to the cheater in my life as Cousinfucker because, well, it’s pretty self explanatory. Sometimes I shorten it to CF. I am totally stealing semen demon but I usually refer to his whore as either the whore, or Harley. Two years ago when I was busy wrangling unicorns he told me that she was the biggest mistake of his life and he should have bought a motorcycle instead. Looks like he gets to ride a Harley after all.

    Over Christmas my SBX sent a card to my son( who hasn’t really talked to his Dad much since d day two years ago) to tell him that he wasn’t mad at him. What the fuck? He isn’t mad at my son. Seriously….HE WASN’T MAD AT OUR SON). Later, I asked my son what he thought of that and he said he texted him to tell him thanks and that he was glad he wasn’t mad and that he just thought he did some fucked up shit. I am not big on curse words but that pretty much sums it up. So, I guess we should say that my SBX did some FUS….

    A story that is too fucking long…for the middle of the night, which it is, where I am, now.

    When I drive (Boston area) I curse to make a sailor blush; always have, probably always will. (Sample: you didn’t have the right of way you scumsucking dickhead loser!. And that’s mild.) I always figured, they can’t hear me, I don’t drive aggressively, where’s the damage?

    And theenn: I had a toddler in the back, soaking up words like a sponge. “Fuck. MOve it. I’m going to be late to daycare again was a standard.

    One fine summer, the Very Rev. Dr. Cheaterpants-Crapweasel, Sr. came to stay, along with the hyena he married, Mrs. Very Rev. Dr. Cheaterpants-Crapweasel. [I hyphenate since it was on both sides of the family. Her father was an honest to God bigamist. His mother died young, father shipped out, and he was raised by invisible hands of elderly aunts, and I can only assume child molesters too. It was a big family–lots of room for twinks and twerks.

    Out on a grandparents drive–ssosooso much fun all by itself!—-my lil one pipes up from the backseat: “Goddamnit, mom, don’t you even know where you’re going!!

    Shocked stillness, or as Ralph Waldo Emerson put it, “I love the silence before church begins.” That kind of stillness. (He by the way was a flaming narc, but no reason to think he cheated.)

    Shocked indignation–and the implication that I was the mother from hell– in a car full of marital cheaters of at least a second, if not third generation, clutching their pearls b/c my lil kiddo said “Goddam”.

    Step right up, can we get yer hypocrite tags punched? oy vey.

    That way, only my closest friends who now know the translation understand what I am saying, and they laugh along with me.

    My kid does not know what those words mean yet. And when she figures them out, that will be my cue that she is ready to see the evidence allowing me to call him a dumbass and her a whore. Very cathartic.

    I had to skip down to post, but I’ll go back and read and re-read all! This post was spot on for me. After Dday, cheater mcfuckity got all religiousy and pious about how he’d reaaallllyy changed. Self-righteous asswipe. When Dday hit, so did the F-bomb, like a comma. (Pinterest postcard perfection-using the word like a comma)

    He was pontificating (duh) about how he’d changed, had told me absolutely everything, blah-blah-d-blah….obviously NONE of that was true and I didn’t handle it well the first go round so it got waaaay worse. He had the raw, naked ball nerve to ask me in a sniffy-like manner, if I would please stop swearing, because it OFFENDED HIM. My. Swearing. Offended. HIM.

    When the gobsmack from his request wore off, I let loose with perhaps the longest string of swear words on record; and, when I ran out I just made up new ones or combinations of old and new ones. I told Friar McFuckwit exactly where he could fucking take his hideous self-righteous bullshit. So, when he gets pious, haughty or sniffy with the attitude – I address him as such. I don’t think anything else he ever said conjured up more fury than his cheating, lying, son-of-a-bitch, dirty ass telling ME that I offended HIM with my SWEARING. I wasted so much of my damn time stupidly loping in the unicorn fucking forests of hell.

    Then he says that? It’s, OMG, the swearing? THAT’S the big problem? Well, hell’s bells just cue the angel choir and we’ll be all fixed right?! W.T.F?! Fuck. That. Shit. He CHOSE to destroy our marriage and family for whatever the fuck he did that he won’t actually tell the truth about, but still declares meant “nothing” to him, and HE perpetrated all the heinous deception and all the fucking bullshit that went with it. For over two DECADES.

    It clocks right up there with “can’t you just TRY to be nice?” in terms of how many nanoseconds it takes for me to tear him a fucking new one. Stupid cuntfucker. I’m quick to tell Mr. Friar McFuckwit that he can keep his stupidass (h)opinions to his cheating fuckityfuckstick self. And no, the (h) is NOT silent. I will bitchbomb onward, mightily.

    I don’t have a fallback that I use for her, but today I texted her this: “Fuck you for wasting what were supposed to be the best 25 years of my life you fucking bitch.” And going through some files I found a picture she had taken of him, that I had labeled “Dickwad guitar,” and I remembered that I entered his phone number as Asscell. And she gets mad when I use this language, but today I thought to myself (without saying it to her) “I have nothing but ‘fuck you’s for you now.” I figure I should be given a medal for every minute of every day that I’m not screaming an endless line of profanity at her, the vile piece of shit, the lowest of the low.
