Wife's secret plan ends in failure, being trapped under SUV

Story is from Pittsburgh. Woman suspects husband is cheating on her. Goes to alleged girlfriend's house and cleverly hides under SUV parked outside. Ingenious!

Less ingenious? Woman falls asleep, which allows someone to let the air out of the SUV's tires, trapping her. (Hmm ... who could have done that? Who could possibly have a motive here?) The po-po and other emergency personnel are dispatched to the scene.

Best part? The woman was taken into custody so she could get a mental-health evaluation.

This story is humorous and sad at the same time.

Very sad.. if you are sneaking around checking up on them.. it is over..

[CareBear]

Very true statement Searching. I wish the article would have told us if her husband was indeed there, or did it and I missed it?

[Searching]

Didnt read the story.. Have to many friends that have been to that rodeo.. some of them a couple of times.. it is really just a matter of self esteem.

[CareBear]

You're right, once the self-esteem is removed, it takes a long time to get it back.

Having survived several intense, fairly lengthy relationships, I conclude that when it's over there are indicators, messages, some subtle, some blatant, that the partner is no longer interested. That's the time to cut and run. No point in fighting to keep the relationship; even if you win the fight the relationship will never be the same again. Best to tip your hat, say 'Adios', and figure out who gets the cat and the crock pot, then be on your way. Pat Benatar sang, "Love is a battlefield", but once the hostilities begin, love leaves. What's the point in fighting a battle that can't be won? The "wronged" wife in this article was not only desperately foolish, she was dumber than a bag of hammers to hide beneath a vehicle and go to sleep. At best she looks like an idiot, at worst she looks like a dead idiot if someone drives the vehicle over her.

I must say, I never would have thought to let the air out of all the tires to trap her, that is pretty good.

26 years of marriage, and it's reduced to newspaper headlines...

What a shame.

There either wasn't much clearance under that SUV, or she was a large woman.
And how do you sleep thru the sound of the air being let out of 4 tires?

And Pat Benatar;s song "Love is a Battlefield" is about Child abuse. Just to clarify. Yes, I was a fan of hers.

[JDog]

But the article doen't say whether her intuition was right or wrong!

kay, your right on, how do you sleep thru air being let out of the tires? I have to doubt it was the hubby; to risky of her waking up... unless he knew she sleeps like a hibernating bear and snores like a freight train...lol

If you look hard enough you can always find something. Why be in a relationship that requires you to snoop. To Old for those games

If your boyfriend/spouse gives your some droppings of not being true, I'd say you have every right to check up on them, but not to the point of stalking. Been there, done that! Actually it's really funny to see the look on their face when you do catch them. They look so cool and then ZAP! (@@) After that, simply walk away and never look back. Not worth having a boyfriend/husband that does that crap! If they try to explain, well talk to the hand baby, because you're about to be bi*ch slapped!

Golfer - thanks for elucidating on the true message in Ms Benatar's very good song. Though I wasn't referencing the lyrics so much as the title. Anyone who's ever been in a serious, long-term interpersonal relationship can likely relate to the message in the song title, even if the message in the body of the song may be different. And my apologies to Ms Benatar and any of her fans (self included) who may find my comment to be objectionable on only that one point. And, no, I did not intend to remove any of the reference to child abuse from the song; that is an issue I find much more disturbing than romantic suspicion, and much more in need of public outcry.

[LooseCannon]

Love is a Battlefield is about love between 2 people. Hell is for Children is about child abuse.

[Tam]

LooseCannon, you are correct.

And you are also wrong about Priest Holmes golfer. I just love a good dogpile.
