Neena (Matt’s wife):<\/span><\/strong>
\n“William was, among the rich and successful men of Silicone Valley, the best.
\nTop tier.
\n<\/strong><\/em><\/span>The sort of man I should have gone after, had I not tied myself down to Matt right out of school.<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

I had been surprised by Cat’s small breasts–a lazy oversight in the maintenance category.\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/span>
\n Her husband had certainly noticed my breasts.
\nHis gaze had lingered, even as his hand had curled around her waist.”<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Matt (married to Neena for twenty years):<\/span><\/strong>
\n“But this wasn’t the first time she’s cheated on me.
\n<\/strong><\/em><\/span>Last time I didn’t even confront her with it. I found out and never did a thing about it.”<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

William (married to Cat for thirteen years):<\/span> <\/strong>
\n“My mother once said I had a weakness for crazy women.
\n<\/strong><\/em><\/span>She voiced that opinion back in third grade, when I developed a crush on Sylvia Pinket, the girl who trotted around the perimeter of our recess area pretending to be a horse. On the days when the wind was rough, she’d whinny and prance, then plant her hands in the dirt and kick up her back feet. I thought she was beautiful.<\/strong><\/em><\/span>
\n Eight years later, after she peed in the punch bowl at the Rotary club Christmas banquet, a psychiatrist confirmed all our suspicions and shipped her upstate to the loony bin, ending any fantasies I had of unbridled Sylvia passion.<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

My penchant for crazy women, it appeared, never ended.<\/strong><\/em><\/span>
\n While I thought it had taken a hiatus with Cat, I was wrong.
\n<\/strong><\/em><\/span>My wife, like Sylvia, was crazy.”<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n
