A snip from "Bad Daddy," one of the stories in my book, "The Wives of Machismo."

"Daddy! Daddy! Look! We bought a Christmas tree! Merry Christmas, Daddy!" The boys yell with great excitement. 

 His wife, Belinda, smiles at her husband, Carlos, of seventeen years. 

 Carlos glares at his wife with wicked eyes and doesn't say a word. He walks over to the tree, grabs it, and begins to drag it through the house, towards the front door. Ornaments are breaking and falling off. He throws the tree at the end of the driveway. The boy's eyes fill with tears. "Daddy! No, Daddy!" they both cry out. 

 Carlos looks at Belinda. "I'm the only one who buys a Christmas tree for this house! Do you hear me?" Yells Carlos, as he storms into the bedroom and slams the door. 

 Belinda hugs her boys. Crying and holding each other, they fall to the floor. It takes Belinda many hours to comfort her boys, eventually, they go to bed. 

 As Belinda tucks them in, one of them whispers, "Bad Daddy."

This is a healthy response. You keep your dignity, whether he chooses you or her, because you will not tolerate that he continues this relationship. You hold yourself up high. You are worthy. Even if he chooses her, you can repair yourself from that. Of course, it will be difficult and hurtful, but with faith, prayer, and a support group, you will be okay. You may end up living your happiest life yet.  Then there's the unhealthy way to handle this. . . some women become quite pathetic. Yes, they will address their husband about the other woman, but they will cry, they will beg, they will compare themselves to this woman. They become unstable and not want the man to do anything else but talk to them about this. They will stalk the other woman on social media. They will fin...

A peek into the story, "The Girl on His Computer," from my book, "The Wives of Machismo."

Her sister that lives many miles away has emailed her asking for a picture of the boys. She smiles and hops over to Marcos's computer because that is where she keeps all of the family pictures. She begins to look through the pictures one by one. She's smiling at all the sweet and funny pictures of her family. All of the sudden, the next picture that she opens isn't of the boys, it's a picture of a girl. This young girl has dirty blonde hair and is sitting inside a truck with the door open. She is posing with a big smile wearing a shirt and a short skirt. Her legs are wide open showing off her layers of flesh between her legs. Veronica instantly feels sick to her stomach at the thought of knowing that this dirty picture is on her husband's computer. She notices the surroundings of where the girl is. The picture is taken at the beach. Then Veronica notices the truck. It's her husband's truck! She runs to the restroom and vomits.  To read the complete story a...
