Her husband told her having threesomes would keep him from cheating on her with other men (likely story). She stuck by her man, hoping things would get better. It wasn’t until a life-threatening scare that she finally realized she had to get out. What finally gave her the courage to get out? We'll find out when we break down this week's break up.
