Thank you all for reading. Special thanks for the comments. I know the backstory was a bit long. Very nice of Jake to sit through that. I hope the rye was good.
It was fun to write. As many of you know, I love making characters who resonate with me and are relatable to readers. There’s a lot of the “real me” in these stories, but that would be the boring parts. The fictional Kiva is really an exaggerated and embellished version of me. No one (to my knowledge) ever said both sides of my brain are turbocharged. But I have been accused of being messy in the kitchen and a procrastinator.
Coachzzz, I think you are right. A reconciliation would be difficult if attempted and would likely run into long term challenges. We’ll see how it plays out.
h_k, you make a good point. The humiliated defeated wife fantasy is very common here. I’ve chatted with some guys who feel guilty and conflicted about it (don’t worry guys, I live by confidentiality for a living). For catfight fetishizers, is the humiliation turn on specific to fight fantasies and not other forms of humiliation, as you suggest? I would certainly hope so,
Finally, should I feel insulted that a pic of the Hindenburg disaster received over 10 times the views than my family photos? I realize the photos are sad to look at and the resolution sucks, but only 10% as interesting as the Hindenburg? Well, OK then.
Wish you all well,
-Kiva
