CW-
people seem to like to blame the wife when the husband leaves. And when you are a kind, respectful person, it doesn't make sense to them. In fact, it scared all of my friends when I tld them my stbxh cheated because it made them think "WOW if it happened to newmama, it could happen to me!"

So I think they make up some kind of explanation....like the crazy one you heard! Yep, laughing it off and holding your head high sound like the solution to this one!

I am just being silly here and am NOT SUGGESTING you say these liners to anyone! But am amusing myself at responses you could imagine giving:

"Well actually, I didn't have a drinking problem until AFTER he left me for the woman!" (ba dum bump cha!)

"No, I don't have a boyfriend, but if you can set me up with someone, let me know!" (ba dum bump cha!)

"Yeah I had a problem- not enough alcohol to deal with his cheating!" (ba dum bump cha!)

"No boyfriend, and no husband for that matter either!" (ba dum bump cha!)

Ok I hope these were okay to say and not over the top!
