How Hollywood Sexes Up the Inside Story of a Viagra Salesman
16.11.10
Reidy did have his share of racy episodes. But putting them in print was another matter. "I had a boss who kept badgering me to date a pediatrician I wasn’t interested in, but who liked me, so I could increase my sales," Reidy says. "But I kept thinking, 'My mom’s going to read this book.' Of course, after the book came out, my buddies would call and say, 'Hey, why didn’t you write about that nurse...?' So I missed a lot of opportunities to tell those kinds of stories."
Not to mention the product sampling. "How could I sell a drug and not have tried it?" he teases. "Though I’m surprised it’s still the market leader compared to Cialis. One pill for 36 hours--seems like a no-brainer to me!"
Reidy grew up in what is now Chestnut Ridge, New York, just outside of Manhattan, programmed by a financial planner dad and computer systems analyst mom for a more conventional existence. Graduating from the University of Notre Dame in 1992 on an ROTC scholarship, Reidy spent two years on a U.S. Army base in Japan chaffing under the military system, before stumbling into a job as a Pfizer pharmaceutical salesman in 1995. There, he quickly learned to circumvent the expected nine-hour days.

When does the pain and hurting stop? My husband Jim of 43 years asked me for a divorce in january 2009.?
Jun 12, 2009 by di | Posted in Marriage & Divorce
I was in California visiting my dad when he called one morning saying I want a divorce. He said we could divorce...he'd still live here on our property and would take care of me financially.(right) I immediately flew back home. To make a long story short and after much investigating and pictures we have had two hearings. I found out he had a girlfriend (Mary M.) whom he met in excercise class at a senior center. He has known her for 9 months. I never seen it coming. He was impotent because of his prostate cancer treatments but started on Viagra for her in January....also bought a Penile Vac Pump. He moved out completely in February. Lives mostly at her house. Flaunts her to public resturants and buys her gifts. He is a real winner. Oh the things I have overheard on his telephone calls to her and found out about my husband is enough to make your skin crawl. I can't believe this was the man I loved for 43 years and AM STILL MARRIED TO. Now he is so angry and full of hate toward me because I won't let him live in the RV on the property or give him access to the property when he wants. We don't even talk. I was never granted the priviledge of sitting down and talking to him before he moved out. This is the most painful and hurtful time of my life. I still don't understand why he has done what he's done. Guess I'll never know. We have had two prelimanary hearings, final trial scheduled for October. I have possession of the home at this time but no financial support as yet. I am unable to work. He runs our family business I started 13 years ago. Please give some advice. I need all the help I can get both physically and emotionally. What can I expect in the end.
its just about an old man trying to be young again. and it is shocking to find a man u trusted with your heart betrayed u. it does hurt. grief has no time frame, but does get better if your able to talk about it to others. u will never really understand why he did this, because they will never be honest with u. but i would make sure u got alimony, join a self help therapy group where u will meet others u can talk to about this. he was just trying to feel young again, and Escape his life. he is what he is, just go after the alimony, don't worry about trying to understand why it happened. there is no answer.

Why are you unable to work? Are you disabled? First of all...you will get over this...second of all...sounds like you need some counseling...you are grieving over a loss and rightly so. Let him have his girlfriend...who cares in the long run cuz what goes around eventually does come around. That's a given. Accept that he was yours and now he isn't. Painful but true. He sounds like a louse...don't know or understand why you'd want to sit down with him anywhere. And, I seriously hope you have a good attorney. shookeydaville | Jun 12, 2009
You're the girl you WILL get more out of this divorce. Zigran | Jun 12, 2009
give him the divorce, but make sure in the decree that you get alimony, especially you have a business together, and the property. seems like he wants his cake and eat it too. wants the stability of the house, property, money and a new girlfriend. how DARE he want to live on the property and you have to be there looking at him and the girlfriend. sounds like he wants to hurt you really bad for some reason. but you have been with him ups and downs and through prostate cancer treatments. you HAVE to get a job some how. disability or something.

Financially you will be fine. The judge will make sure of that. As for your husband, are you sure he is not suffering from some kind of dementia? That is strange behavior. The relationship he is in probably will not last. But in any case, get yourself on Match.com and meet someone else. There are plenty of divorces leaving lots of singles at every age. Live well. You never know what great things are around the corner. God will watch out for you. I'll say a prayer too. thatartistwin | Jun 12, 2009
you can expect the unexpected, so be prepared for anything. and after 43 years of your life, and this is how he treats you--take everything. i am so sorry that you have to go through this. you must be devastated. don't roll over on anything. he chose to leave so let him do it but don't do anything to make it comfy for him. lean on your family and friends for support and try to keep busy. good luck and find the strength however you can to get through this. chewbaby | Jun 12, 2009
you need time and therapy....this is very hard. Divorce is compared to how people feel during catastrophic events and they are right. It sucks and it hurts really bad. I am still gettign over 12 years and she left 19 months ago. 43 years! That will take sme time but it will et better...trust me it does get better. Javi | Jun 12, 2009
i'm sorry you're having to go through this. bored_ at_ work | Jun 12, 2009
This is absolutely terrible, what a fool he is, men can be so stupid, she must have no class whatsoever if she wants to live in your RV on your property. He is a fool, doesn't he know where his true happiness lies? is she one of those scrawny, divorcee instructors? My best advise is to to a bible preaching church, a small baptist one, talk to the pastor. God hates divorce, God is on your side, learn the word of God, and He will never let you down, He will give you His strength day by day, you cannot go on your own strength. No, why should you have to work? you already invested your life in HIM! After 24 yrs I found out my husband had an affair last year with a philipino over seas while he was working, leaving me alone with our autistic son, men are fools. Please turn to Jesus, that is Who I turn to. Candy B | Jun 12, 2009
get you some counseling and a good lawyer. It will get better and besides you are going to win in the end and don't let him take you business from you Praying for A Blessing!!!!!! | Jun 12, 2009
go back to court and take his butt for what you need 43 year ,hell to the the no. Frannie H | Jun 13, 2009
the helps you are asking we are not able to give, we can share your pain by tell you their is light at the end of the tunnel but truly as hard as it is only you can walk throw the light as for emotionally you need counseling, I think because you never had the opportunity to talk to him you are not at peace and that you need to do but remember that the man is a jerk anda coward 43 years and to be told over the phone that is hard and that probably why your need to confront him is stronger get counseling that the only way you will get some closure in your situation waiting for baby | Jun 13, 2009
Other than talking to your attorney, there's nothing more you CAN do... I have been where you are, except my circumstance were alittle different. I was a stay at home wife and mother for 29 years. I was a 10th grade drop out, married at 16 , he never wanted me to work...I raised 2 sons and all of a sudden, my husband was unhappy...I asked him, "who the hell is she"? He denied it , of course...Long story short, he was verbally abusing me, I threw it out...we divorced..I had to start my life over. Went back to school, got the GED. . .I had to get out and support myself for the first time in 30 years,....It was the hardest thing I have ever done..., BUT I DID IT.....I got nothing from him....My attorneys told me you can't get anything from someone who has nothing...I was devasted...It took me years to even come to terms that he did this to me....I am fine now, I've been married to wonderful man for about a year, he is the one I should have been married to the first time. The very woman I accused my husband of having an affair with is the very woman he lives with today...I love knowing she has my leftovers....Makes me feel all warm and cozy inside. I will not speak to this man that did this to me. He can go to hell. I won't even be in the same room with him, because I have this overwhelming need to ball up my fist and pop him right in the mouth. My only advice to you would be to pray and rest assured, these kind of men will get theres in the end...My bible says I have to forgive....I'm sorry! I can't.... I loved my man so much I would have died for him and he thought so little of me, I felt like he threw me in the trash. I just believe in what goes around, comes around... Even though I have moved on, the pain is still there and it has been 8 years...Good luck to ya and if you would like to talk to me, just email me. Just having someone to listen, makes a world of difference... lucylocket7258 | Jun 13, 2009
I've been marred almost as long as you have, so I feel compelled to suggest to you that he's doing more than going through a mid-life (a little late) crisis. He may have other problems...physical or mental...such as Alzheimers or the like. Maybe he's had a mini-stroke. I would not give him a divorce, if you can prevent it. Chances are that within a few months he'll be worse and a doctor will be needed to help him. SHE won't want to be his full time care-giver at that point, either. You need a good lawyer, though. This family business that YOU started should be 50% income to YOU. Get a lawyer to make sure that happens. Otherwise, in the end, you will split the proceeds from the sale of your home, RV and vehicles, and half your savings, but you will lose a lot. You can keep that from happening with a GOOD lawyer.

I am like lucy. My ex cheated with a bible thumper and bailed on me and our 4 kids. Once i found out, he knew it was done and moved in with her. To this day he claims he didn't cheat...LMAO...(He also tried moving a RV onto our property too)He married her a year after he left and our divorce was final. He became a total ass. She egged him on to fight with me and threaten me.I realized after he was gone, how verbally and emotionally abusive he was. A month after he left, i met a wonderful man on yahoo personals. We talked and met. He has now been with me and raised my kids for almost 7 years and married for almost 4. I had to move away from my family and my town to get away from the drama with my ex. My kids were suffering from the abuse he and his wife dished out as was i. After being drug down so far, the new man in my life made me stand up for myself and fight. I love him for that. To this day, i refuse to talk to my ex. I haven't spoken to him in 4 years. He can talk to the kids but i refuse. I still hurt a little from what he did but i am very happy now. I didn't start my relationship with my husband on a lie like my ex did in his marriage. Now he is miserable, because she is a control freak just like him and he has lost his balls. He is now trying to get my oldest to have me call him because he wants to be my "friend"...YA RIGHT!!! I can sit back and smile knowing he regrets what he did and now has to live with it.

So sorry to hear your husband has been a jerk. You absolutely need to be talking to a lawyer. About every aspect of this divorce, including your share of the business you started but your husband now runs. Physically you should be taking care of yourself. When you talk to the lawyer, you want to be sure to ask him about health insurance. If your lawyer isn't concerned about protecting you in this matter, get a different lawyer. I know it's hard because you have no financial support yet. However seeing a lawyer, paying for the visits and having him or her represent you in court is vitally important. Emotionally, all you can do is hang on. When someone is as big a jerk as your husband has been, it's almost a relief to know that the marriage is over and the divorce final. Because that means you can go forward living your life and perhaps meet someone who will be first, a great friend and second, a great mate for you. Your next husband will be better than this one, I'm guessing. Good luck! kathyw | Jun 14, 2009
Your business will have paperwork showing ownership and tax responsibilities. If he is successfully running your business then you are entitled to some support. When the divorce is granted whatever you two have accumulated in in 43 years needs to be divided to some degree. Yes this is a tough time. Lean on friends the most. Join a support group for loss, grief or social outings. You will go through the 7 stages of grief. This can take years or months. If you hang around the house thinking about your loss, it will last longest. Time to go out, get a new hairstyle and begin recreating who you want to be. Easier said than done for sure, but once you get started it becomes second nature. He does not hate you even though it seems so. He is dealing with these sudden changes too and embarrassed how it is working out. Stay calm and always think before you say anything to him. tanja3703 | Jun 15, 2009
First of all you need a very good lawyer. You do know that in some states you can sue that husband stealer for alienation of affection. I know someone that went through that process. You don't have to let him stay anywhere til all this is settle. If he wants this woman so bad why don't he move in with her ad let her clean his nasty draws bet she won't want to do that. Now the joke is going to be on her because he will do the same thing to her since he has viagra and a pump. Good luck. The hurt will end eventually. Also you are entitled to spousal support and also in most states you can file based on adultery since you have proof. Good luck. kitcat | Jun 15, 2009
