    My ex-wife used tarot cards to justify cheating on me, and then leaving me.

    I didn’t even know she had tarot cards.

      It is amazing what excuses cheaters will use to justify their behavior.

      In my case, my ex did the nature documentary argument way before the manosphere became a thing. I dunno why that is a pattern with that sort of man. They like to think of themselves as superior intellectuals until it comes to sex, then they will make graphs and studies and be pseudo David Attenboroughs to justify that their caveman urges are too strong for them to overcome.

      I guess the female version of that is tarot cards, coffee grounds and zodiacs? I hope you found a better lady later, because that one surely wasn’t worth keeping in your life!

        Well, it’s probably true. Their urges are too strong for them to overcome. But that’s what an adult should be able to do, overcome the fucking urges

          Exactly. But cheaters love pretending their urges are mystical forces, not a failure to act like grown-ups. Funny how that “strength” vanishes when accountability’s involved.
