I Got Caught!

Dear WISY,

I got caught cheating with my husband’s cousin.  We were caught by a mutual friend, and now that friend is taking advantage of the situation.  Let me tell you what he has been doing to us in exchange for keeping the secret.

As soon as he found us, he told my husband’s cousin to let him have his way with me or he would tell right away.  We were both afraid, so we agreed quickly.  After that happened, I thought he would be content, but he is taking full advantage of the situation.  I have been giving myself to him on a regular basis.  He has also been extorting money from my husband’s cousin.

I don’t know how to get myself out of this situation.  It is getting worse with each passing day.  Please help me.  Please be nice!

Signed,
Caught

WISY’s Advice:

Dear Caught,

Nice?  Look what being nice got you.  Because you were so “nice” with your husband’s cousin, you in turn had to be “nice” to the mutual friend.  Nice gets you nothing but a kick in the behind.

Anyway, you and your side man are foolish.  This situation didn’t have to progress past the day of being caught.  If the mutual friend wanted to tell, you should’ve let him.  It would have been your word against his.  And if your husband believed him, you deserve it. But since you’ve let this thing play out for as long as it has, you should tell him that you’re not giving him any more hush money or hush sex.  If he threatens to tell, tell him to go ahead.  He’ll have to figure out how he will tell your man that he’s been sleeping with you also.

I hope you’ve learned your lesson.  You should only be “nice” to hubby from now on.  If he’s lacking in some areas, communicate with him.  Cheating never ends well.

Walk good,
