Courting Disaster


Courting Disaster, my weekly comic about sex, love, and relationships updates every Friday. It’s a lot of fun. You’ll laugh your pants off. This week’s question:

This probably shouldn’t bother me but it does. I’m a happily married man for over five years, but I just found out that when I met my wife down the Jersey shore, she had a two-week torrid romance with one guy while she was dating another guy the whole time. When I showed up, she told me she was single, we dated, fell in love and are married. I know that it was a long time ago, but should I feel like a stooge for being married to a so-called "shore whore?" When we slept together for the first time, she volunteered it had been "over a year" since she had sex. Now I found out it was only a matter of weeks. Is it normal to feel like an idiot?
