A friend said her husband is always threatening to 'teach her a lesson' and leave her for a younger woman...this inspired the following poem...
Go ahead
Teach me that lesson
You are always promising
Leave me drowning in my tears
If that’s what I’ll do
While you find that woman
Who is prettier, younger, smarter
The one who will see you for what you are
Younger, prettier and smarter I suppose
Go head
Leave me here
And shoot your best shot, baby
And I’ll go on and do what I’ve always done
I’m not going anywhere, I’ll be right here
You see, I’m a slow learner
And besides
Before I know you’re even gone
You’ll be back
With more promises I’m sure
That lesson I have learned
So go ahead
Sue this is a great write. However, I pray your friend
gets the result she hopes for. Sorry to say I see no
future with such a pompous egotist as her husband sounds.
Usually, if such people change it's for the worse not the
better. Yet, there is always hope!;-)
If leaving her is the only useful thing he can teach your friend, then I pity him as a man. If she feels that she won't even notice he's gone before he is back, then again, I pity him as a man.
While I don't condone leaving a marriage, this one sounds as though the love has already departed - If she is in a possition to do so, she should wait until he goes out, and change the locks... and tell him to go find the younger woman he's been threatening her with, and file for divorce.
If she wants to remain in the marriage she should get all dressed up and go to a singles bar for a quick self esteem pick me up - and then she can threaten him that she may leave him for a richer, smarter, thinner, sexier, etc... At least send her my love and tell her I'll pray for her!
Very well written, Sue! You've obviously touched a nerve in a lot of people with this one!
The ones left behind by those looking for greener pastures are often standing in sweet clover while th new pastures are often a good place for cow patty bingo.

I suspect and hope that she is the one that will teach him a lesson.
What a foolish man he is to make his wife feel as though she will do until something better comes along. It would be good if he did go and if she slammed the door behind him and changed the locks. It would be good for him to have to live in the shadow of being the old (worthless) one and having the sweet young thing that he thought would change his life and restore his youth, be the one to leave him for someone better. If someone loves you, and you walk away, then you are nothing less than a fool. Well written, Sue.
Take care,
Sherry
She'd probably take his sorry a-- for about three months, then throw him back into the water! Any man that would say such a thing has seriously considered it, or has allready done it. No big loss...
Sue,
My wife told me a story about a man who so beat up his wife that she cannot comfortably use her back. The man also threatened that she was going to teach the woman a lesson that will make her become a forgotten person. You know what the woman did, she moved out of the house with her three children.
Honestly, I am against man inhumanity to woman, no matter the shape and how it is used. This act should stop. After all, we are created equal by God.

Take care,

that it happens all to often. I'm afraid some
people wouldn't be there when they came crawling
home.
Damn, this evokes a lot of emotion--tears--mostly anger. Power in your pen, Poet--
That friend should just up and LEAVE that buttwipe. That would teach HIM!!!!!!!!
You may have saved many women today and given them the courage they needed to finally take charge and say, NO MORE! Kudos to you!
(((HUGS))) and love, Karla. :(
