Cheating Husband “Is a Predator”

January 15, 2021 by Chump Lady

Dear Chump Lady, I found your site 4 months ago, my husband’s been having affairs for 7 years (that I know of). I was irate about not finding anything online about self-preservation and actually taking care of yourself. Eventually, I googled “leave a cheater”, and Chump Lady was found. It was exactly what I was […]

The Family Next Door

October 6, 2020 by Chump Lady

I’ve gotten a few notes asking me if I’d seen the new Netflix documentary American Murder: The Family Next Door about the murder of Shan’ann Watts and her two children by her cheating sociopathic husband, Chris Watts. As cheating sociopaths are my particular wheelhouse, I watched it last night. Apologies to any of CN who […]

Close Encounters of the Fake Tears Kind

September 4, 2020 by Chump Lady

I don’t know about you, but one of the most shocking discoveries I had being chumped was that my ex could cry on demand. I mean, sob. Big snotty, operatic tears. Quivering lip. Hiccups for breath. When he was busted. When I was leaving. When I was imposing a consequence. The self-pity channel was EPIC. […]

September 3, 2020 by Chump Lady

Dear Chump Lady, We married 6 years ago and had 2 kids. I found out about his STBX’s porn addiction shortly after we were married and his swinging in previous relationship. I ask him if he was monogamous many times. He said he was. He was tired of that lifestyle. It did not make him […]

Can I Leave a Suicidal Cheater?

August 12, 2020 by Chump Lady

Hi Chump Lady, My situation is one you’ve read a thousand times or more, but luckily I’m unmarried without kids. I’ve been dating my boyfriend for about a year now. Three months into our relationship, I found out he had a secret girlfriend in Germany. I showed him grace and forgave him (classic mistake) and […]

Dear Chump Lady, It’s been a little over three months (March) since my husband of 7 years informed me that I needed to leave our home with our 6-year-old and (at the time) 1-month-old after I discovered he had been having an affair. He had already told me he planned to divorce me the day […]

June 24, 2020 by Chump Lady

Serial cheater

Dear Chump Lady, My husband is a marriage counselor with a double life

September 3, 2019 by Chump Lady

Serial cheater

Dear Chump Lady, My STBX is a marriage counselor, so when I met him (a couple of years after leaving a cheating and abusive husband) I was thrilled about the prospect of having a loving and honest relationship. However, after we married, I started to see a side of him that alarmed me. Angry outbursts, […]

The Dead-Eyed Stare

August 20, 2019 by Chump Lady

So what about those dead-eyed stares, huh? It’s been discussed here, that void-nothing-state some of these freaks get when confronted. What is that look? Condescension? Vacancy? Amusement? Are the manipulation wheels spinning so fast, the facial expressions are set in neutral? What’s going on in there? I remember unearthing some ghastly nugget of truth and confronting […]
