I signed up for Ashley Madison


After 21 years of marriage, I discovered my wife was cheating on me. I was devastated. It turns out she was menopausal and not taking any estrogen replacement. She was mean to me when I confronted her with it and didn't show any emotion. I came to her in tears and she was non-responsive. I was scared and I was worried she was going to walk out on me and leave me alone in the world without my two young boys. I was wrong about that but I was an emotional wreck and nothing seemed out of the realm of possibility. In desperation, I decided to try Match.com so I could at least meet a friend so if my wife were to leave me I would at least have someone that I could meet and possibly turn to so I wouldn't be alone. My wife has been my life-long companion and I didn't think I could survive unless I had someone to be with. If you've ever been in a major break-up or relationship issue, you may know how I felt. The problem is that married guys probably don't meet too many people on Match.com, so I signed up for Ashley Madison instead, hoping to meet a friend. After four days I felt uncomfortable being on there and I paid $19.00 for a full delete. I regularly pay with credit cards online. Amazon, Alaska Air, the plumbing supply company that has the part I can't find anywhere else, etc. I didn't think giving them my credit card info was any different and I didn't provide any information about myself in my profile including the email I used which I created specifically for the site and have since forgotten. The only way to tie me to the site is from the credit card info I gave them.

My wife is not seeing him anymore and we are getting along well now and she is on estrogen replacement and everything was going great until last weeks data dump. Now I fear I will be labeled for life as an adulterer. Will parents still bring their children over for play dates? Will I be allowed to chaperone kids on field trips, etc? I can only imagine the lifelong problems I will face because I am labeled as the neighborhood adulterer. My wife feels horrible about this and she blames herself for me signing up for the site. I don't blame her because it was me who signed up, not her. I have many texts she wrote the person she was seeing and a record of when I deleted my AM account. I have yet to find a data dump search site that will show my name, address and profile information but in a way, I want one to go online and stay there because if you look at my user profile, you will see that the only thing it says is that I was looking for a friend and that I was a member for a total of four days and that I didn't communicate with a single user on that site.

I felt compelled to share my story after reading a few threads on DU that turned into Ashley user bash festivals with people saying that Ashley users are all rotten dirtbags that deserve everything they get and more. I felt horrible all day and still do after reading those threads. I'm not looking for sympathy. I just want people to know that not everyone that signed up for that site is a rotten person that deserves to be castigated and shamed for life.

What a bouncy you have there new DUmmie. They didn't get laid so....

The DUmmy joined an adultery connection website just to 'find a friend'?

tl;dr

If you're going to tell a sob story, make it interesting.  Don't start out with the sob stuff, start out with your Hot Wheels collection, or your happiest day, or something.  And read what you right:

"She was mean to me when I confronted her!"

Really? Your wife was mean to you when you confronted her?  Aw! Poor baby!  You might want to write your sob story so you don't come off sounding like a goddmaned *****!  Maybe, if you weren't such a whiny crybaby, you're wife would have had some respect for you. But it is obvious you don't even respect yourself.  And certainly, nobody reading your horrible and over-long sob story is going to have the least bit of respect for you.

Ashley Madison was a bunch of dudes talking to each other, data analysis suggests

Good luck with that. :rotf:
Heard on a podcast that Gender "A" represented about 15% of participants on Ashley Madison. Gender "B" was 85%.  Going to go out on a limb & assume which was which.

Not even.

Nearly all of the women registered on Ashley Madison were fakes, created by the site itself.

Also, what a cuckolded loser.  His wife cheats on him and he blames menopause.

What about the 50+ other genders the LQGTSRBDCWX crowd say exists?

I am surprised that the Klams haven't attacked. Lining up another women, just in case, seems like objectifying women. Basically he was putting a spare in the trunk just in case the regular one got a flat.

No wonder this knucklehead stayed with her, he couldn't even work up the nerve to cheat on a cheating @#$%! of a wife. Not only that, he made excuses for her. I have no sympathy for him, he's made his bed, now he has to sleep in it.

My wife was addicted to Ashley Madison

Matthew is a successful, 48-year-old tech executive living outside of San Francisco. Over the course of five months from 2013 to 2014, his wife — we’ll call her “S” — cheated on him with countless men on the Ashley Madison website. Last week, hackers exposed the site’s 32 million users. Here, Matthew, who asked that his last name not be used in order to protect their two sons, tells The Post’s Dana Schuster his story.

When I heard about the Ashley Madison security breach last week, the first thing I did was check out everyone who signed up in my neighborhood. I’m a computer guy, so it was easy to create database commands to say, “Show me everything in the ZIP code.”
 
I recognized six names right off the bat. There was a business associate, a handful of family friends and even a dad of my kid’s schoolmate. I always thought he was a decent guy, and here I see he spent $5,000 on the site.
 
And then there was my wife of 19 years. Or soon-to-be ex-wife, I should say.
 
I first learned that S was using Ashley Madison on Christmas Eve 2013. I call it D-Day, cuckold-speak for “Discovery Day.”

The rest of this little tale is here:  http://nypost.com/2015/08/26/my-wife-was-addicted-to-ashley-madison/
