I have a very nice step-type-mother, she’s the 4th ‘wife’ i.e. someone my father’s actually set up home with (as opposed to shagged on the side) and by far the loveliest. So yesterday morning, while she was in the shower, he popped out for a paper and changed women.
My father, the Lothario, despite being 74 and only 5’7” is universally loved by women. Even quite intelligent ones. Even ones he’s left or betrayed want him back. Womenkind should be ashamed!
My father loves women, but more than women he loves money and status. Wife no. 3 was left in his big BIG house. And being a legal wife (unlike no. 2 and no. 4) he was having a bit of bother extracting his wonga. In fact it had caused him to live in a house he considered too small AND he had to downsize the Merc. These are no small sacrifices for a man so driven by materiality.
The final straw came when a television programme, aired just recently, showed his ex house (but importantly (to him) still ½ his) in all its glory. So despite wife no. 3 being a screaming bitch from hell (yes really), he’s moved back.
I truly believe this is just so he can show off. Meanwhile wife no. 1, my mother, was left to explain to wife no. 4 that the immoral old git has moved back in with wife no. 3.
How did she get the job? You may well ask, and so will I once I can get through but everyone’s phone’s engaged. How annoying is that.

Shocking as it is, at least he's made something of a success (for himself I mean) of his narcissism. As for *my* dad...
Read Trevor Cole's 'Norman Bray In The Performance of his Life'. Mesmerizing reading for the children of men like this.
Heck!
He's Jim Davidson, isn't he?
So you come by your engaging charm and wonderful wit naturally, then. Does he have some warlock in him?

murph I wish, that's Johnny Depp
No 4 is a very very nice lady who deserved better, however No 3 and him deserve each other so I'm sure they'll live miserably ever after, until No 5 that is, if he lives that long.
elders misbehaving!!!
i have a father in law with the same strange allure. unfortunately he never found anyone willing to set him up in a large house in england. my father in law needs to get in touch with your father so they can compare notes.

I usually try to be fair-minded and say so&so is an object for your pity and not your scorn..
today I will make an exception and say what a wanker.
His psychological profile is textbook stuff..
