I hate women. I love em and leave em

Another in my series of social commentaries

sexy man

Character: successful businessman, early 30s, 1.83cm ,75kg, overseas graduate and eloquent in speech. Likes fishing and martial arts. Plays football regularly.

Donald : Write about me.Just leave out the personal information.
Bengbeng: Ok. What do you have to say?
Donald: I hate all women. All men, beware of women.

BB: You are a little drunk tonight. Let’s stop it here.
Donald: Do you know I am divorced? I have two children I haven’t seen them since she took them away. I was busy setting up my business then. She was at home with my Indon maid and two children. It was my birthday so I went home with a birthday cake. I normally only go home after 17.00. I knew the kids would enjoy the cake and singing. I also brought home gifts for everybody.

When I arrived home, the maid was nowhere to be seen.Apparently she had taken my kids out for a walk. I went to the bedroom and found my wife in bed with my best friend. He is not even good-looking or rich. In a civilized manner we settled the issue.

Over a period of a few months, I tried but i couldn’t accept the fact she had been unfaithful. I asked for a divorce. Then, I was badly beaten up because I couldn’t tell anybody WHY I wanted the divorce. I was branded the unfeeling horrible monster from hell, leaving the harmless mother of two in a lurch after giving her all to me. i was in much pain and hospitalized for a few months. Luckily I still have all my limbs.

She has since remarried and done her best to keep the children away from me.

BB: It is time to move on and perhaps start afresh. You are still young.

Donald: Huh! I won’t ever be that stupid to trust another woman again. For the time being, the arrangement suits me. There are ladies who want me in bed. When I am in the mood, I oblige.

( Certain details have been changed to keep Donald anonymous )

    There are bad women who cheat men, and there are bad men who cheat women.

    I think the lesson is not to treat all women or men the same, but 1) definitely get to know your partner properly. 2) spend more time with your family.

    The last is often, very often repeated, but also very often ignored or excused away.

    donald was unlucky in love so now he rather be the bad guy than get cheated again, very similar to a friend of mine…

    Greg:To me it is rather sad though especially when there are children involved. Even if there are no children involved, it would still b a sad story. Maybe I chose the wrong words n gave the wrong impression. He never neglected the family nor stayed away long from them. Of coz office hrs are office hrs but every working man is away during office hrs.

    Wuching, i think he probably knows u. everybody is related to everybody if u go back far enuf in a small town

    When I read this, I felt so sad for the kids to be cheated out of a perfectly fine father figure. My heart goes to Donald too. The kids have the rights to be with their father too. It’s just plain ungrateful for the lady to just rip them apart like tis after all she has done. It’s the most selfish thing to do.

    BB: sometimes love is hard to define :(
