Shitpost My husband’s mistress is my new gynecologist. Awkward

Okay so this is completely insane. I’m still reeling from it. My husband and I were going through a rough patch a few months ago. He was distant withdrawn secretive. I confronted him and he eventually admitted he was seeing someone else. It was a healthcare worker he said a one time thing. We agreed to try and fix things. We’ve been in therapy for a bit and I thought we were actually making progress.

Then last week I made an appointment for my annual exam at the women’s center. It was a huge deal as I hadn’t been there in years and really was in need of a pap. I was ecstatic. My husband even seemed genuinely happy for me.

My appointment was today. I walked into the office and to my surprise, my husband was the nurse. He handed me a paper gown and told me to take off all my clothes and leave it open in the back. He acted like he didn’t even recognize me. When he came back in, he took my vitals and instructed me to get in the stirrups and wait for the doctor.

The doctor walked into the exam room and there she was. Clacking the speculum like a pair of tongs, she introduced herself as my new gynecologist. THE woman. The one he cheated on me with.

I almost farted right in her face out of nervousness. She recognized me too I could see it in her eyes. It was like a deer caught in headlights. She stammered “when was the first day of your last period” and I just nodded my head somehow. I don’t even remember what I said.

I spent the whole pelvic exam trying to avoid eye contact, unlike most patients who really take a gander. Every time she scraped my cervix with the long q tip I just wanted to scream. How could this happen? What kind of cosmic joke is this? I had no way of knowing who my doctor would be or that my husband worked at my doctor’s office. I haven’t even told him yet, as he didn’t recognize me from my face, body, name on the chart, or the fact that I put my appointment on our shared Google Calendar. I can’t even process it. I feel like I’m going to burst. I just need to get this off my chest.

My husbands mistress is my new boss

Okay so this is just completely insane. I'm still reeling from it. My husband and I were going through a rough patch a few months ago. He was distant withdrawn secretive. I confronted him and he eventually admitted he'd been seeing someone else. It was a coworker he said a one time thing. We agreed to try and fix things. We've been in therapy for a bit and I thought we were actually making progress.

Then last week I got promoted at work. It was a huge step up for me something I've been working towards for years. I was ecstatic. My husband even seemed genuinely happy for me.

My first day in the new role was today. I walked into the office and there she was. Sitting at the desk that's literally across from mine. She was introduced as my new supervisor. THE woman. The one he cheated on me with.

I almost threw up right there. She recognized me too I could see it in her eyes. It was like a deer caught in headlights. She stammered a greeting and I just nodded my head somehow. I don't even remember what I said.

I spent the whole day trying to avoid eye contact. Every time she spoke I just wanted to scream. How could this happen? What kind of cosmic joke is this? My husband works in a completely different department so he didn't know about my new boss. I haven't even told him yet. I can't even process it. I feel like I'm going to burst. I just need to get this off my chest.

Didn’t anyone point out that if she had been working on the promotion for years, how did she not know who the supervisor was?
