Awkward dinner with AP and W


Recommended Posts

I KNOW. Can you imagine? She's at a party with only 7 other people, among them her husband, "the life of the party," (seriously - what 8 guest professional dinner party needs a "life of the party." Was there lampshade wearing to be enjoyed?) and his side dish. What a BITTER beeyotch she must be to make any sarcastic remarks about him. A real good wife would only say sweet and flattering things, even though she might be in utter desperation about her marriage falling apart, and be having tremendous difficulty being put in this disgusting situation.

 

Plus, she is a boring INTROVERT. Yuck. It's hard to imagine how she even dares to live, much less to be married to "the life of the party" and actually accompany him TO a party.

 

Loser!

 

A post from a common sense viewpoint. Easier when one is grounded in reality.

Bottom line.

 

Cabin is social friends with MM and wife. Cabin's kids socialize with MM and wife's kids. Cabin and MM are having an affair, and Cabin is finding anyway to defend her part in the affair by making sweeping judgements about the BS.

 

To have Cabin and the BS at the same table for dinner IS "awkward" because it IS toxic. I really feel for the BS and kids who are all innocent pawns parties in all this - (just so MM and Cabin can get their rocks off.)

Come to think of it, what kind of person goes to a dinner party with his wife AND his OW, and is relaxed enough to be the life of the party? Does he have no concience at all? Sounds like he got a thrill out of the situation :sick:

 

A narcissist would have no problem with it. In fact, a narcissist would get off on it.

 

Be very careful, Cabin. You may end up with exactly what you're praying for. Doesn't look pretty from here.

Pretty easy for a guy like that to put on his "life of the party" face when he has two women dancing attendance on his every whim, all the while smiling into the face of the BS who he enjoys keeping his dirty secret from. :sick:

 

 

Yes. It's good to be king!

So very true!

 

I am an extrovert and prefer men that are not the life of the party and who are more reserved. I like the strong, silent and observing type. Well maybe not silent! :laugh: I prefer an unassuming man who exudes an understated but apparent confidence who doesn't have to be out and about and extra social like I am. That quite turns me on! :o Especially when I know that behind closed doors with me he is funny, witty, more talkative, virile and the lot, that would never be guessed when we're out in public interacting. It's a wonderful complement for me and one perk of partnership is to have someone who is the yin to your yang and vice-versa.

 

MissBee, my husband could have written that.

 

American culture has tremendous prejudice toward introverts. Japanese culture has tremendous prejudice toward extroverts. It's just cultural bias.

 

I test extremely high for the Meyer Briggs test's "INFJ" archtype (introvert/intuitive), and my husband is a witty extrovert ("ESFJ"). We're chatty in private, but I tend to be quiet at public gatherings because group interactions tend to be superficial & thus boring for me compared to one-on-one encounters. Interestingly, my husband's twin is an introvert who is married to a highly extroverted woman. My husband says our sister-in-law would drive him bat**** crazy, but his twin adores his wife. The yin-yang pairings work, and they usually work well.

 

About the fact that BS was making sarcastic digs at her husband:

The BS may not understand she is being abused with infidelity, but there's no doubt she knows her husband has been dishonoring her on some level for the past two years. Her digs may be the only way she can get back at him, especially if she thinks he's highly invested in his public image. This doesn't excuse the passive-aggressive sarcasm but, in view of the passive aggressive infidelity her husband is participating in, it's understandable.
