Kindle Notes & Highlights
But he says he loves me, I told her. A man who is willing to cheat on his wife, she said, will often make promises to you that he can’t keep. When he tells you he loves you, it’s a form of entrapment. Cheating spouses are masters at manipulation, she said. He may tell you things to keep you from ending the affair. He has both a wife and a lover on the side. He has no incentive to change. It wasn’t her intent, but I found relief in that. Will had no reason to leave me. Will would never leave me.
“It’s one of the many things I love about you. Your unpredictability. Different every day.
He eases my body to the floor. He’s gentle at first, but then drops me the last couples of inches. He isn’t trying to be gentle. He’s trying to be quiet.
