With all the uproar over Arnold Schwarzenegger and his “love child,” our friend Ann over at WomenExplode.com just wrote about her own experience of a cheating husband.
My heart goes out to Maria. I ache for her. I cannot even imagine the shock she is going through, not to mention how public her life is and how she has to deal with that on top of everything as well. Arnold is sociopathic scum and I’m betting on more women to come out of the woodwork ( i just read an article on another lady who admitted to being a mistress while he was still married.. ) .. there must be hoards of them. Not to mention the child who Schwarzenegger had with the housekeeper was born FIVE days apart from his son with Maria Shriver. Thus Maria and the housekeeper were pregnant at the same time ( boys are the same age ). And to think he thought in his pigheadedness that he could somehow intimidate the housekeeper with his money and status.. he reportedly fired her before the whole ordeal propped up in the media.
My hope is that Maria and her children are able to weather this very unexpected and difficult storm at this time. Tough deal. :/

I agree with dancingnancies, the sheer ballsyness of it all, the having the woman in the home with his family for 10 years while he had a child with her and paid her off $1200 a week for being a housekeeper is a pretty pricey job….if you know of one at that salary please let me know, I’d like to apply for it. For that price I will clean their floors with a toothbrush….Let’s see, I made a bit more than that when I worked, but I have 6 years of college, and national board certification in my field, and my responsibilities were critical to people living or dying….if I had known how well being a maid paid I would have stayed in that profession…I did work my way through college cleaning other people’s homes, so I have experience.
The one thing I would have had a problem with though, was farking my married boss and then being around his wife and family and not feeling guilty about it at least. But then maybe this woman doesn’t have much of a moral compass either…maybe she enjoyed pulling the wool over her mistresses eyes and snarking behind her back “Well, you think you’re special but I’m farking your husband and I’ve got his kid too, na, na, naaa na na!”
I think the whole thing, especially with the maid/mistress/baby mama in the house for 10 years it shows that Arny has the ULTIMATE IN lack of respect for his wife, much less love. He is the ultimate egotist and narcissistic arsehole if nothing else.
Yes, I feel sorry for Maria, she has a “hard row to hoe” and to do it in the public spot light, but at the same time, I think she will come out in the public opinion smelling just fine and he will stink top high heaven. The only ones who will “admire” him or have any pity or sympathy for him are the turds just like him, and who cares what they think anyway? NO ONE of any class or couth will have anything but contempt for him.

Yeah it’s a COLOSSAL red flag for someone to guiltlessly carry on AS IF NOTHING HAPPENED ( And even while he proudly proclaimed himself Governor of California while sporting the facade of a perfect family life ) for more than 10 years! How empty are his words that attempt at any show of remorse, after he has willingly tucked this whole ordeal neatly behind his breastpocket at the expense of his family’s well-being for such a long time. The idea that this guy then felt smug enough to run for governor and maintain two terms is beyond disturbing.

I saw on the news tonight that he had canceled his bid to return to movies to “concentrate on his family”—yea, right!

I saw when he held the press conference to express “profound regret” to the hurt he caused his family. Holy jeepers, his remorse was so freakin’ insincere. THe way he held his head down like a puppy that just peed on the rug–so phony. I didn’t believe it for a second. Classic narcissist, and that’s just probably the tip of that iceberg.

Yes, that was ballsy to have the maid living in the house several years after the fact of the affair and only a spath could pull that off without guilt or conscience taking over.
The accounts I read said the maid hid the fact the baby was Arnold’s until he was a toddler. Also Maria gave her a baby shower not knowing she was carrying Arnold’s baby.
Given the fact that I could not condone Arnold’s behavior don’t you think the maid smelled money and blackmail when she got pregnant by Arnold?
I mean this lady was in her late 30’s. It’s not like she didn’t know about birth control at the time. Wasn’t she even married or in a relationship at the time?
One account I read said he gave her the down payment on her house. So one might as well say her liason with Arnold won her the lottery.
And speaking of famous spaths was Liz Taylor one?
I’m asking because she seemed to hold a lot of the similarities
and conditions of a sociopath. Multiple spouses, etc. Debby Reynold’s said that when Liz wanted someone she went after them married or not without even carrying about the family she destroyed. Debby even said, she warned Eddie that Liz would soon tire and get bored with him and discard him.

Some women (speaking of the maid) come from environments that are so desperate that they develop a do or die mentality; it is all about survival and it is ruthless.
I DO NOT condone what she has done. I personally think she should be sued for extortion and alienation of affection. If possible in CA.
The woman ADDICTION/TURD is with now is from a Central American country where things are very, very hard and she RUTHLESSLY went after him with a lot of lies even denying she knows him and claiming to be “a born again christian (small c-thanks Ox for that one!). All the while she has an agenda anyone with 1/2 a brain cell can smell 100 miles away. A good friend of mine works with several women from her country and he says they are tenacious in their survival.
I am NOT saying that it is because she is an immigrant. My GG father on my dad’s side was born in Chihuahua, Mexico so NOT GOIN THERE OK?
Just saying the woman (Arnie’s maid and TURD’s new GF) has a totally different (and disgusting IMO) outlook on survival. This, I believe causes SOME OF THEM (maybe spaths-I suspect new GF is whacked out) to do things that are not admirable to say the least.
There are many people who come here and are as honest as the day is long and just about the hardest working folks anyone could meet. Most of my neighbors fit that description. The best neighbors a person can have.
I suspect new GF is doing his housekeeping, yard work, and bed work. Wow three for one. What a deal for him. Not so much for her. I can bet if they were younger she would MOST DEFIANTLY get pregnant to score a meal ticket. And he is just a retired teacher-not much to his name money wise. Arnie on the other hand was a huge SCORE for one of those types.
My heart breaks for Maria. I am sure, like all of us, she wanted to believe the best but she WAS/IS addicted to him. Poor gal. I can relate. But she is tough-she comes from hardy Irish stock and trust me-she will survive ( in a good way) !!! I have no doubt.
Arnie on the other hand,”well stick a fork in him, he’s done”.
I am sure I just might get a few kicks in the ass for this post so I’m bending over now ok? Just HAD TO SAY IT!!!

No, not at all…I don’t think you will get a few kicks in the ass, especially not from me. It all makes sense to me. The OW who was in triangulation with me proclaims she grew up extremely poor (you wouldn’t know it now…has a good job, dresses very well, just a cute ball of sexual energy), but I am guessing if what she says is true and she did grow up extremely poor, this is what has driven her to do the things she has done. I am also guessing it is what made her into a master manipulator and one of the biggest liars I have ever met. I am not saying whatsoever that everyone who is poor is a liar. What I am saying is I am thinking that maybe because she was so poor she had to lie in school…lie to her teachers, lie to her classmates all to keep up a facade because she was ashamed of being poor?? I don’t know…I just try to figure out the “whys.”
Anyway, you are right…it’s always the ones who are scammed that come out on the other side OK. It’s the ones doing the scamming who are NEVER OK!!!

TBH, I do not find much sympathy for Maria Shriver, much as I could not find much sympathy for Hillary Clinton.
They are not women in denial. They knew what was going on and continued relationships with their “husbands” for their own personal gain.
Any “hurt” is merely a reflection on their personal embarrassment when their husbands got caught doing something particularly egregious that could not get swept under the rug.

whew!! thanks eb. I came very close to deleting that post but I decided to leave it because I think it is a valid point to think of in the case of Maria’s LOUSE of a maid and her DICK HEAD husband.
Thank you!!
Poverty causes people to do some desperate things. Sure the maid is not living in poverty now but who knows what she experienced in her country. Guatemala is a desperately poor country just like the country where ex’s new GF is from. Violence up the kazoo and political intrigue and desparately poor conditions. That does not exactly create a sound mind in someone spending their formative years trying to survive.
I do believe in Karma or as C/christians call it “reaping what you sow”.
I don’t want to be on the bad side of that.
Thanks again for understanding. I am a bit bitter at her (new GF) but I am trying to forgive and pray my way through it. When the Arnie story broke I felt somewhat vindicated for some odd reason. Because they are from similar countries and have done similar things. New Gf told me her best friend accused her of sleeping with her husband (of course boo hoo it was not true and she lost a life long friendship boo hoo). I’ll bet my next paycheck it was true…I looked up her divorce decree and her American husband divorced her ass because she is CRAZY. The decree reads like a rap sheet…ADDICTION/TURD has a huge payback coming….
