I don’t watch any of the reality shows like Bachelor or Bachelorette, Real Housewives, Mob Wives… unless Tabitha is over lounging around after a run.
Yesterday we got sucked into Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. I got sucked in because I had been cleaning most of the morning and I needed a break and it was on.
They had these women, who in comparison to some of the shows I have been forced to watched, were somewhat stable.
They are all from sort of famous background, but I had no idea who or what because I don’t subscribe to most of that. If you’re not on my Twitter feed, I had no idea what you’re doing, who you’re married to…
This one woman; older, classy…and well put together with a cool accent was watching this other housewife who was a lot younger, no class and not so put together put her hand around her husband’s shoulder.
It looked harmless enough, but the classy woman came unhinged for a moment.
“Get your hands off my husband.”
I actually cheered for her.
If I have learned anything in my life being on both side of this story, is this…if you want to keep what you have….GET UNHINGED.
We don’t get out too much with other people, but if and when we do and some woman is brave enough to get even a little bit flirty with my man, I will let her know that she can back the fuck right up and kick rocks.
This is mine…and you can’t have it.

I have never considered myself a jealous person. In my marriage, it never bothered me that other women flirted with husband because I thought he’d never go there.
I guess after finding out that your husband was cheating on you it changes your thought process.
Now, when any woman gets, even what I “perceive” to be, too close to Dennis I am UNHINGED.
It’s kind of odd how our past shapes us.
Cricky,
I still wouldn’t say I’m a jealous person. Never have been, but I know now when something is worth being a bitch for…and fighting for.
Luckily, in the past…nothing was ever worth it. Now I will snap off the fingers of the women who come too close.
I feel much the same way about all the things I love.
And what if said flirty girl is say…your friend? Do you trust HER enough that it is harmless flirting? Do you trust HIM enough that it’s your “friend?” Or do you dwell? Or do you tell her to step off, just in a different way? Just curious.
ESPECIALLY if she is your friend! Uh yeah.
Looking back, my behavior was inexcusable and there is no bigger regret and I thought I was just being cute. No, that was not cute.
Your friend should be told to back the fuck off and you have every right in the world to tell her.
She will turn it back around that you are being crazy, but at the end of the day, who are you in bed with?
Get unhinged.
Yes. There are times when getting unhinged is necessary. This doesn’t only apply to significant others, but children as well. I’ll stand by my decisions every day of the week, and twice on Sunday. Call me crazy. Call me a bitch. But I will protect what is my own.
Exactly Margaret.
When my S/O and I had been dating for a while and had decided we were serious, this woman (he used to date) kept calling his phone. He would answer and tell her to stop calling that he was seeing someone seriously. She kept calling. We were in a restaurant, she called, I picked up the phone and let her have it, quietly though. Never heard from her again.
Good for you Karen!
For real, let them BOTH know you’re serious. Mine knows. He may or may not be too thrilled with it, but I could give a fuck.

“One women’s trash is another woman’s treasure.”
It works both ways. Treat your man like trash and try to throw them away, there will be a woman that will snatch it up and polish that thing to shine.
And then sometimes you steal something away and find out in the middle of a spit shine …that it really is nothing but trash. Now it’s yours.
