The Other Woman

This has really been bugging me for days now. This notion of the "other woman" being a homewrecker. uugghh. I mean, i guess now that I have been both sides of the coin, i can feel both sides of the issue. I hate that I was introduced to the world of cheating. Surprisingly it wasnt in this relationship or even my previous adult relationships that I was snuck into this world. I had to say I was probably 12, maybe a year or two older. I'd have to dig deep on this one. But I knew something wasnt right about what I heard and it felt funny in my young mind. But I had already been exposed to so much that a young girl should not have known, so i passed it off as another new "secret".

But all my life its been ever present. Thinking you're someone special while you're in it. And throwing down with Karma when she comes around to kick your a$$ on the other side. 

So I guess its been bugging because I thought about when it relates to affairs, the woman (or man) is the home wrecker, when it was the husband (or wife) who stepped outside of the marriage selfishly. So who really wrecked who's home???? Who's home was it to PROTECT & SERVE to begin with. I guess its easy to be mad at the "other woman" because she is the unknown. You would never expect the one you love to be the one to do the damage. How could they? And now that I am myself married, I have to wonder...I mean, having this knowledge of this world..its like never forgetting how to ride a bike or shoot a gun. once you have the knowledge you cant escape it. Thats why I'm anti-gun :)
