more cynical bad advice from gender baiters
A male would have long since deposited the money and not looked back.
This is one male who completely disagrees with that, and so would my wife find that sentiment repulsive. That's part of the reason we love and respect each other and have always been faithful, despite plenty of opportunity.
A lot of the bad advice here seems to come from unfortunately cynical, unwise, and unhappy people.
But, what goes around comes around.
While we all make mistakes and learn things as we go, in the long run, a person's character more than anything else, determines the sort of person they'll be with.
Sounds like the LW picked one dud, but she'd be a fool to lose her own good character in the deal and become a greedy cynic for a paltry $10k. Better to learn from past mistakes and move on as a better and wiser person, and embody the qualities she'd want from her next lover, than to make another mistake now.
I'd sure have difficulty trusting or loving a woman who took the money. One of the things I love and respect about my wife is that she made a moral choice in her career regarding her family.
