I remember reading that many of the ow/om that a mlc'er picks is often someone that the LBS would never imagine them falling for. They often pick someone that is the direct opposite of the LBS.
In my case, I was a P.E./health teacher and a cheerleading coach and my H went out and fell for a cocaine/heroin addict lesbian stripper.
At least I was not jealous of her and her lifestyle. I was proud to be who I am. And I know H only liked her because he could play the part of Hero - trying to save her.
The MLC'er is at an all time low and they often feel like the OW/OM can relate to them the way we cant. Their loss - not ours. TIPPER
