Well I did something stupid today. Just recently My aunt found out that my Uncle had been cheating on her for quite a while. He had been hiding money and using it to go on "business trips" in Vegas. My Aunt also told us they were getting a divorce. Well I was of course disturbed and saddened by this news, my Uncle had always seemed like a cool guy, I guess he was too cool... Well I didn't get the full impact of all this till my Uncle walked in. He was supposed to say good bye to their two children age 3 and 7, my nephews, because he was getting kicked out, and would be away for a while. Well while he was saying good bye him and my Aunt started arguing. Near the end he said, " I'm like Charlie Sheen, I'm a winner." I couldn't believe he would say that he was a winner, when he was leaving his two poor children fatherless(kinda). I had never been so angry in my life! Before I knew what I was doing I had walked over and punched him in the face. He stumbled and held his cheek where I punched him. Then he just left. I'm shaking just thinking about what I did. Anyway my question is what do you think about cheating? whether your married with children or not.

This is just like that "what do you think of relationship breakups?" thread. No one is going to say it's a positive thing. It's absolutely fine to make a thread about your day if it's a story like yours. You don't need to add a false topic.

So yeah, sounds like your uncle probably deserved it.

I wouldn't believe it either.
He must be one cocky asshole to say something like that..

I know he was kinda acting like a douche and all, but at his age (i'm guessing he's around 60- 80 or so) and you punched him. Jeez. That's something.
That could have killed him.

But that makes a really good story, you ever think of becoming a writer?
That's like the perfect movie scene right there.

He's actually only in his late 30's / early 40's. Yeah he is an asshole, he unfreinded all of my family members on Facebook.
His lawyer must have told him that he shouldn't say anymore stupid things that could affect him in the divorce court.
I don't know about being a writer, I just wrote what happened in detail so it would be interesting.

oh, I was thinking of it wrong, for some reason I taught he was elderly.
But in that case, yeah tear his as* up!

His lawyer is a smart dude.
But from the looks of it your family is gonna be a whole lot richer every soon.

Divorces don't generate money. The family will be no better off than before, aside possibly from being rid of someone who they might not want around.

I didn't mean we would get money out of it. It can just affect custody of the children, and dividing their belongings, etc.

If my girl cheated on me, I would dump her.
Because I know I wouldn't cheat, not even if I was fucking hammered.

Reflect my commitment, byatch!
