Author's Notes: The posting I saw for the 750 word challenge said invitational so I never checked it out. Only later did I find it was open for everyone. This is my effort, too late, but I liked the challenge. For the puritans counting on their fingers and toes, the title doesn't count, nor the author's name or notes. In word and other editors, hyphenated w...
Many thanks to snowbear for editing this story. * The cruel truth is that shit can happen where and when you least expect it. I got to know that simple truth the hard way. I thought that I, Alexander Ericsson, a 43 year old Scandinavian guy, had a perfect life with two great kids, a beautiful, loving wife, good health, nice home, good job, helpful parent...
My iPhone began to buzz, making my handbag shudder gently. Lifting the phone out of the bag I could see that Brian was calling. Holding the phone up to my mouth, I swiped the screen and accepted the call. "Hi Brian and what do I owe this pleasure?" I drawled. "Can I pop round, there is a few things I want to discuss!" Brian blurted. "Things you want to d...
Many thanks to Dennis for the editing of this story. * My pretty common-law wife, Helene, was wearing a sexy dress with a short skirt, which gave a good view of her nice legs. She was standing in the kitchen waiting for a taxi taking her to a "Divorce Celebrating Party" held by a Jenny, one of her best friends. Divorce party sounded as a strange event in o...
How to Tell if Your Spouse is Having an Affair? For the last 15 years I have worked as a corporate security consultant. It's an alternately exciting and terribly boring job. Most of my stories that I've written for this site have stemmed from my experiences at work and those same experiences have taught me a lot about human behavior and weakness. Because s...

Like many other Scandinavian families my wife, Johanna, our 7 year old son, Ken, 5 year old daughter, Moa and me, Glen Andersson, had a pleasant family night one recent Fri...
We were laying in bed together after a long day and Jane suddenly asks me, "How many of your friends do you think would fuck me?" I just laid there stunned for a second thinking I must have misheard her. I manage to stutter out "What?" She casually replies back "I was just wondering if I decided to start cheating on you, how many of...
Chapter 1 Dana was late getting home from work on Wednesday evening. Troy, her husband, waited on her for dinner, but by 7 PM, when she wasn't there, he gave up and ate some warmed up leftovers. He was getting worried. Troy had called her cell phone a few times and texted her, but she didn't answer. He tried to call her office, but since it was past five o'...
By Likegoodwine copyright July 2013 Here's another story for you, a bit longer than my usual ones. I often write stories that depict characters that are a bit extreme. This one reflects more a normal kind of guy. There is cheating in this story but no revenge: only sadness then hope. The wife isn't burnt, not even scalded. She will just be forgotten. Thank...

I'm a 31 years old guy by name Leif Eriksson, same name as the Viking who said to be in America (Vinland) 500 years before Columbus. My pretty girlfriend's na...
