Why? Why do I still feel like I need you? Why is it still a punch in the gut when I know you're with him? I'm trying to move forward. I'm setting goals for myself that don't include you. But it's hard, because ever since we met, I haven't been able to imagine a future without you. submitted by /u/Aromatic_Try6811 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

My husband cheated on me when I was 6 months pregnant back in October with a young coworker and filed for divorce in November. Will not admit that he did to this day and will not say a word about the girl. During that time he only would check in once or twice a month to ask how the baby is doing. I left to go stay at my moms to have the support from my family because of how awful he was treating me causing me to lose a significant amount of weight and I was worried my baby would not make it. He came to the hospital which was court ordered the day she was born and brought his mom and sister. H ..read more

I don't know how to wrap my head around this, because I don't feel like this behaviour is normal. I have been with my bf for 6 years, and he cheated on me 5 years ago, and I forgave him because I thought we were young (especially him he was 5 years younger than me) and it was an honest mistake. Fast forward to now, he told me that when he went on a his four month long trip with a friend (which I encouraged him to do so, before he started his first job) he told me he slept with 6 or 7 women. I went into shock because I trusted him completely and after building a relationship for years he crumb ..read more

I don't want to be told to leave. I know thank you. Forgive my typos. I was in a frenzy when I wrote it. Luckily she understood. She would not speak to me directly. But her daughter did reach out. Found out at the same time she was messing with my husband, she was also messing with her oldest daughters fiance. Classy. Anyways, I felt sick reading this. I realized that he has a pattern. And I realized I need to open my heart and forgive the women that didn't betray me. He betrayed me. He chose it. Repeatedly. Ugh anyways, I told her in a message to her daughter that it took courage and strengt ..read more

I was snooping on the internet on some properties that my FIL (70) owns and found someone had claimed they lived at one of the homes. Mind you there are two beach front homes (around 11,000sqft each) that my MIL (68) , husband, and his sibling only visited a few times in 2007-2009. Anyways I googled who this person (we’ll call her W, 45) was as they share the same home address as my FIL. I then found a public obituary from 2020 with W’s name and then my FIL’s name in parentheses. I concluded that all the spouses/partners names were in parentheses. My instincts kicked in so I proceeded to goog ..read more

Going through a divorce right now because I found out my wife has been having a full blown affair with another guy. The future doesn’t look too promising to me and I highly doubt I’ll find someone who I liked as much as I liked her. For those who remarried afterwards, did you find someone better? Does the pain fade over the course of years? Will I ever be as happy as I was before? submitted by /u/aDeviousPoop [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Would you be suspicious if your wife came home and her lipstick was smeared around the outside of her lips? submitted by /u/Fantastic_Crow_5148 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

So we're 8+ years after D-day when she (53F now) cheated on me (53m now). I stayed because we had kids and some special challenges and bonds. But these 8 years have been very hard. Lots of therapy, depression, meds, alcohol - but we/I have been able to mostly find balance and get by. I'm much better today but still have my down cycles. We were walking the other day and she asked whether I would do it all over again knowing what I know now. I was surprised how quickly I blurted out a firm "No." Like not in a mean way, but confident. Definitive. Absolute. She took it like she expected it. And i ..read more

Please read THIS first. This is what the cheater wrote about me. The whole post of lies skewing the truth and then completely leaving out that he was cheating the entire time. I am the (23f) in the fake story of lies. He was secretly in 2 different relationships cheating and then on top of that cheating with 40+ women. And of course failed to mention that he was cheating. It hurts so bad seeing these lies. He’s saying I “demanded” him to stay up on the phone with me and he wanted to go to sleep when in reality he would lie to my face the entire relationship and say he was going to sleep and i ..read more

My ex husband cheated on me for 2 years off and on with a friend of mine. We have 2 girls together. Had a nice house - which he still lives in - and all I can think of is that I want to go back to him. Finish raising our girls together and move forward. I want the future I was promised when we got married. I don’t even care that he cheated. I just want my life back. submitted by /u/Appropriate_North184 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more
