Florida banker's wife left family to join Wall Street protesters
NEW YORK POST ^ | October 21, 2011 | KEVIN FASICK and BOB FREDERICKS

Posted on 10/21/2011 10:56:04 AM PDT by george76

A married mother of four from Florida ditched her family to become part of the raggedy mob in Zuccotti Park -- keeping the park clean by day and keeping herself warm at night with the help of a young waiter from Brooklyn.

“I’m not planning on going home,” an unapologetic Stacey Hessler, 38, told The Post yesterday.

“I have no idea what the future holds, but I’m here indefinitely. Forever,” said Hessler, whose home in DeLand sits 911 miles from the tarp she’s been sleeping under.

Hessler -- who ironically is married to a banker -- arrived 12 days ago and planned to stay for a week, but changed her plans after cozying up to some like-minded radicals, including Rami Shamir, 30, a waiter at a French bistro in Cobble Hill, Brooklyn.

...

The unemployed Long Island native compared her decision to abandon her family to Americans serving in the armed forces.

“What an ignorant piece of garbage looking for an escape.”

Not to mention selfish.

“Sudden Adolescence Syndrome”

I guess the novelty of a marriage, house and kids wore off.

Why does this sound more like an excuse to get a little action on the side where hubby can't find out???

And now it's all over the internet. Gotta be great for the kids at school too. Hey Junior, see your mom in NYC?

“...Long Island...” I don’t understand this statement.

You are sooo “mean spirited.” May she and all of them be blessed by an Episcopal Bishop who has left his wife and children to live with his homosexual lover. So there, you meanie!

Not if I was her husband. Have to wonder about him though, he married her.

All of life is covered by one country song or another, and this is no different:

she said, “i need sometime to find myself,
i need a little space to think.
maybe we should start seeing other people.
baby, things are moving way to fast for me.”
so, i, i picked up what was left of my pride,
and i put on my walking shoes,
and i got up on that high road,
and i did what any gentleman would do..
i, um...

i got a brand new girlfriend.
we went and jumped off the deep end,
flew out to LA for the weekend,
spent the whole day, lyin’ on the beach,
wearin’ nothin’ but a smile,
playin’ kissy-kissy, smoochy-smoochy,
talkin’ mooshy-mooshy bout nothin’.
man, i think im on to somethin’,
yano i feel just like a kid again.
i got a brand new girlfriend.

i love it when she calls me butter cup,
laughs and says i left the toilet seat up,
she pops and tosses me a cold beer,
and says my buddies always welcome here.
when i get hungry, she takes me out.
i ride the shotgun like a shitzu hound.
my tails a waggin’, my tounges hangin’ out,
it makes me wanna shout...

wooo...
cute, cute, cute...

she likes to write our names in the sand.
shes hearing wedding bells and making plans.
shes gonna hang around a while i guess.
she hasnt even told me she loves me yet.

she makes me feel just like a kid again,
i gotta brand new girlfriend.

“and what she left behind she hadn’t valued, half as much as some things she never knew”

Frankly, I admire her spirit. She walked the talk, unlike so many.

May the father and kids now live happily ever after.

LOL - I'm sure none of hubby's relatives read the New York papers. Hubby might get a bit suspicious when 10 or 15 reporters call him and ask for a comment.

Just imagine the depositions in this divorce case.

Mid-life crisis? Her eldest is 17, so maybe she thinks she missed out on her roaring 20s and somehow latched on to this group.

—Have to wonder about him though, he married her.—

I wouldn’t. I used to think divorced people were sort of second class citizens until it happened to me, completely out of the blue, after 20 years and 3 great kids. And I mean I didn’t see it coming. Not because everything was perfect, but because I respected her to be an adult and sincerely try to work things out. My take aways from the experience:

1. Love is a decision.
2. Everyone is loveable and hateable, depending on how you want to see them. If you fall out of love with your spouse, it is not because of them. It is because of you.
3. If you marry a person because of how they may please you as opposed to how you may please them, your getting off on the wrong foot.
4. If you stop loving your spouse, either because they didn’t change, or because they did, it is your responsibility, not theirs.
5. You cannot control your spouses feelings. Only your own.

When mine dumped me I was done with women until I really DID get a brand new girlfriend. And I could have practically written that song. I did sing it in my country band a couple years later (I wasn’t even IN bands nor did I play bass or sing in my “previous life”). And we DID get married and the honeymoon is over 13 years and counting. :-)

Not Guilty, for being 38 in these daze of obesity.
