Man Rushes To The Hospital After His Wife Has A Heart Attack, Finds His “Friend” There
Out of the news you do not want to receive, an unexpected hospitalization of your loved one is at the top of the list.
So when Reddit user Crafty_Border9588 got a call, informing him that his wife had a heart attack, the man rushed to the facility where she was being treated.
However, as he revealed in a candid post on the subreddit ‘True Off My Chest,’ he also met his “friend” there and learned a few disturbing details about their relationship.

In addition to marital status, age, and geographic location, there are plenty of reasons why people cheat
From the information available to us, it’s impossible to determine for certain why the woman had an affair. But according to Ashley Madison, a dating site for married people, the number one reason why people stray is sexual dissatisfaction. Of those surveyed by the platform, 70 percent gave this as their reason for stepping out. About a quarter said they enjoy hunting for casual hook-ups, while an even smaller share were in open relationships.
Most (33%) use the old excuse of “working late” to hide their infidelity, another 28 percent claim they’re catching up with friends or family, while 23 percent tell their partners they’re at work drinks. One in ten usually say they’re hitting the gym, going for a run, or shopping.
What’s also interesting is that the woman could be content with her marriage overall. Ashley Madison found that 39 percent of cheaters described their primary relationships as “happy.”
Of those surveyed, certain professions showed up more than others.
Professions of women most likely cheat:
- Medical assistants/nurses;
- Unemployed;
- Admin assistants;
- Those in a managerial position;
- Teachers.
Professions of men most likely to cheat:
- Managers;
- Engineers;
- Managing directors;
- Sales managers;
- Construction workers.
These new findings follow an earlier survey by Ashley Madison which lifted the lid on regret and guilt.
What it found was that TV shows like to play out the regret and guilt of their characters, a la Carrie cheating on Aiden in Sex And The City, but in reality, respondents showed little to no remorse.
“[While] in popular media, television shows and movies and books, people who have affairs have this intense moral guilt and we don’t see that in this sample of participants,” said lead author Dylan Selterman, an associate teaching professor in Johns Hopkins University’s Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences.
Instead, “Ratings for satisfaction with affairs was high – sexual satisfaction and emotional satisfaction. And feelings of regret were low. These findings paint a more complicated picture of infidelity compared to what we thought we knew.”
So it’s hard to say how the woman feels about what she’s done and which direction the marriage will go now.

Eh? The story just ends. Did she have an affair and stab him. Do bp do any sort of proof reading?
Why would BP proofread Reddit posts? If they modified them, then they’ré no other I the poster’s words, and they may very well end up changing the story. The subreddit is /TrueOffMyChest. He just needed to let it out, he’s no literary giant in English, and I’m sure he’s sorry you didn’t get whatever it was you needed from his off-his-chest post. (I’m still giggling that you expected a paragraph wrapping everything up to your satisfaction when he’s clearly no Cormac MacCarthy!)
