I cried my eyes out for a couple days when I found out my girl had cheated on me at the job we both worked at. Ain’t nothing wrong with being hurt and letting that out.
My beautiful bride of 12yrs cheated on me. She is actually out of town with him right now! Cuts to the core! Makes me never want to put myself in this situation again! I own a business and she works for me so we still seen each other quiet a bit and had big plans! I'm not one to move forward from it. I honestly feel like she's someone else's now! It's one of the most hurtful things I've ever been though/going through! I feel deeply for those of you going thru this! Prayers! 😔
Do not stay! Work on identifying why you connected with this person, thats your part. I stayed with a man who had multiple emotional affairs.. after 38 years.. of marriage I look back over the years and I see how I made it comfortable for him to behave this way.. thats on me..looking back... its all on him ..
@@justinhogue1 Dont Stay Im 68 yo been married fir 39 years to a man who had multiple emotional affairs snd betrayed me financially 2 .. I stayed for my daughter.. after she was off to college he knew I was planning to leave.. he developed health problems and I stayed.. BIG MISTAKE.. they never change.. your wife has serious character issues.. as does my husband.. when you get to be my age ( late 60s) you want to be with someone who you can look at and know loved and cared for you.. not one who cheated on you.. get out .. let her find a job outside of your business.. get therapy to help you gain insight and strength..you need to grieve what you thought you had!!! She has serious character issues..Shes not " beautiful" either! Shes an ugly natured person .. start looking at her for who she really is!
My heart goes out to this young man. My wife of over 30 years,raised 5 beautiful kids together. Left the family this time last year for another man. It really hurt me deeply. All of these points your talking about are so true. I started getting counseling when she left and it has helped so much. Encourage this young man to work on both his mental health and physical health,it pays off.
Painful! I do understand. Have been married 36 yrs. Noticed changes in my husbands demeanor 3 yrs after we married. He cheated, & then went for 3 others the next 32 yrs, continuing to LIE making the same promise HE NEVER DID & NEVER WOULD. He's only sorry because he's been caught. 2 other married friends who engaged with the same Sex Worker are now divorced & it looks like we are NEXT!! 36 years & most of my life is based on DECEPTION!! He refuses to let me go, as he'll lose more than half of everything, including his wife & his dignity. He's threatening suicide & only offering more EMOTIONAL MANIPULATION keeping me further in his prison.
Mine of 27 years had an affair and she stopped it, had issues with her for 15 years after that. Thought she currently she had an affair, then found out about the original one. The lies she gave me then and now. Have 4 kids she had her affair with 2 in high school and 2 about ready to be married. What a fricken mess.
@@Gotoworkkk nope. You have a rapist mentality. You can't victim blame someone like this. "Man did you see what they were wearing"?? Learn boundaries bro
It should be talked about more. It is one of the worst feelings in the world. Even worse than death at times. Not just in marriage but serious long term relationships too. Happened twice now..just too much.
Interestingly after my wife's adultery my self esteem didn't suffer around other people, but it suffered when I was around her. When she's not there I feel confident and secure, while around her I feel self-conscious and small. It's very strange, it has been a few years and I'm usually happy to see her and I care about her, but I still feel insecure and unimportant.
@@montrose252Yes, agreed and we are divorcing. It's a lot of work unwinding 25 years of marriage and kids but I'm gaining strength as I do it. Thank you.
Same here after 20 years and 2 kids she walked out for her affair partner! Flipped my whole world tbf but can't let it beat me ! I know I deserve better 😌
"You still have to walk through hell to get out" You're saying it so well, it's so painful to realize the man (in my case) you loved has been lying, coniving, cheating, has betrayed your trust, has been slandering, gossiping about you behind your back to someone you don't know; the disrespect, disregard. The one you thought was your lover isn't, has never been. It's all a lie, and on top in spite of proof (taped conversations) he still denies, pretending he was just talking to a childhood friend, it's not what you think, you're misinterpreting, etc, etc, the lying never ends, he digs himself in deeper and deeper. The hurt to your soul is unbearable. The tears never stop, you find yourself suddenly crying without even knowing how it started. Sam Vaknin has a good video on the subject of adultery.
Reading these comments make me feel very scared of commitments and relationship. If cheating can happen after 30-40 years of marriage, then what's the point of marrying!
@@Curiousgal600 being alone doesn’t necessarily mean being lonely. Having friends and family around and hobbies make life wonderful! I’ve been divorced for over 10 years now, and never been happier!
#4 really resonates with me. After i was cheated on i developed body dismorphia and started doing steroids cause i felt like i was cheated on because i wasnt good enough. Still struggling hard with this it robbed me of all self esteem and confidence. Before this happened i was very good at talking to women and had very high confidence. Now i can't even approach a woman without being overwhelmed by crippling anxiety that im not good enough for her to bother with me. Its so hard this has seriously damaged me emotionally and psychologically
This is what I'm struggling with now. I was the same way. I was confident and felt valuable to myself and others. After being cheated on and thrown away for the man she cheated on me with, I'm struggling to let go of the anger and be that confident man I once was before her. Let me know if you figure anything out, and I hope you heal soon and rediscover that self love. It wasn't your fault bro✌️

@@ryanfrank1309 I'm sorry for your struggles. I'm three years out, married over 20 years. It is much better after 3 years but I found it important to lean into every feeling, every anger, every hurt. Don't avoid, don't deflect, nothing, allow yourself to get as worked up as you want to, tears, sweating, hate, rage, all of it. You want your body to process all the hurt and grief, and let it be a motivation to a better you, hitting weights, maybe martial arts, work to advance your career, make more money, learn to invest, etc. These are all things that are important to do for yourself and nobody else cares about them but you.

@@tuoctran43 thanks. I appreciate it. Life is much better now. Still hurts sometimes but I learned how to not let it control me anymore. Brought me closer to God. So in a way I’m grateful. Thanks for your kind words
I’m in shock because I thought she was depressed so I spent months helping her and she was sleeping with another. She was my best friend. We never fought
That was the same excuse I was told lmao. She wasn’t depressed. She was f’n around with other people. Yes it sucks, but I dodged a bullet. Glad it was only after 5.5 years and not decades like some of these other folks in this comment section. Recognize your own worth and that you’re deserving of more. Be selfish and focus on yourself physically and mentally. Quit bad habits, gain some good habits. It gets so much better. Only been 4 months for me and I feel better than I have ever felt in my life, physically and mentally
@@AL-sg2jd I'm 6 months out now and the anger is still there sometimes. I used to be full of rage every possible idle second with horrible fantasies I never thought I was capable of wishing for. Now I'll just feel a little sad when I pass by her street or see a car that looks like hers. Sometimes I feel anger, but it's not too distracting anymore. It does get better, it just takes time.
It gets better even though you don't see it. It took me a year especially since he was cheating and my daughter and I were grieving the passing of our son and her brother. It went on for 11 years because he was a pilot and she was a flight attendant.. I am remembering who I am again and so much happier.
Jesus.....Young 22yr old afyer a 3year Relationship....finally catching her Cheating....staying n waiting on change then getting cheated on during that time is Horrendous. I gave her Everything, everyone Hates her, I can't begin to explain it. I avoided women while she spent time with Him. I'll get over it though, the year my sister had a tumor, my light got cut, eviction notice, my BSF of 9 years died..... I'm here with a different strength. I'm gonna get over it though....I always do.
My wife recently did this dirty deed to me and the kids...she monkey branched within days of telling me she wanted out...I looked at her and thought I've been living with a liar ... I've not shed a tear which is making me worried that I might be cold hearted...I forgave her the last time but now I feel nothing it's as if my humanity and warmth have disappeared into a void of nothingness...wish I could cry and cleanse my grief but I just can't...I feel inhuman!
You're not cold-hearted, you're subconsciously avoiding the pain by not allowing yourself to feel it. Possibly, it's because it gives you a sense of control that you believe you have otherwise lost, you're so scared of opening up the Pandora's box and/or any other number of things. Trust me, the pain is all there and will demand to be felt. Maybe go to counselling/therapy to get help letting it out because otherwise it will express itself negatively. I regret not getting professional support after I was cheated on, I think it could have saved a lot of years of pain.
Its not the actual knife in the back that is so so bad.. its when you turn around and see someone you loved and trusted with your blood on their hands.
it’s honestly hard to hear everyone around you tell you that you are good enough when you really only care about one person’s opinion and their actions say that you weren’t enough.
An affair never really ends psychologically to the one cheated on and the cheater remembers it forever with fondness and this fact influences his/her behavior which means the affair partner is always in your marriage. It never ends!
7 year relationship took a break for a few months we have kids together and dudes already moved in. Man it hurts just here looking for help this amount of pain is discouraging
I have been cheated on in almost every relationship in my life. I’m 48 years old and the last one was the worst one yet. It has destroyed me. She told me she loved me then left me the next day to go back with her abusive ex. He was abusing her one week prior and I got mad about it and that’s what she used as the reason she left me to sleep with him, stop working, drank everyday, lost her apartment, and she blamed for everything. I had a heart attack at work after not eating or sleeping and going to work everyday so the bills got paid. She didn’t care.
Would anyone consider going to see an ex as cheating? My wife currently had gone to see her ex-boyfriend to get a (gift) she says. It was a candle 🕯 but i was away with the Army. I've struggled with that for about 3 years now
Currently going through this devastation and the pain is so great … I feel physically sick and wish I could crawl into bed and die !! But I’m a mum and I have to be here for my children… I feel so ugly …. And so low 😢 I am in the self blame stage and it’s disgusting…. I don’t want to be here … I feel like I’m grieving the life I should have had with husband and our children… now it’s been destroyed… The grief and anxiety is so intense … the guilt for my children and what their dad has done to our family is overwhelming….
Take one day at a time, it’s the most horrible thing, I’m 5.5 years out leaving with 5 kids, he was abusive too so I guess it was a blessing, try to find a professional you can talk with and get some of your feelings out etc and be kind to yourself 💜
@@LizEarthAngel3 thank you 🙏 how long did it take for you to get over it ? Wow with 5 kids you’re amazing you should be so proud 🥹 you made the right choice for them and yourself !!
Allow yourself to feel the pain but do not allow it to devalue your self worth. Be kind and gentle with yourself and your children. He made his choice. Karma will get to him.
My ex accused me of cheating when I never did. He told his friends, my friends and my family about it. He also told me that his ex cheated on him but later he himself told me that she was talking to a guy but not cheating. Sometimes I wonder if people assume that their partners cheated on them, like my ex did.
Nobody is going to want to hear this but one thing in consideration of what shocked your whole being is that now that other person IS inside of you sort of an extra terrestrial that’s one reason in my opinion why the hurt can be so deep because of unauthorized person
You talk about working less? We were 3 days away from closing on a house, when she came home and announced she gave up her management job to go back on the front desk (a pay reduction of 700 a month). I had to take the extra work to pay the bills, or walk away from the deal and lose 24k (I should have, I ended up losing a 1/4 mil). My working 80 hours a week was her excuse, and going back on the front desk where she met him. It lasted 4 months and ended with a date rape. Imagine learning your wife was date raped 30 miles from home while your at work ... I loved her so much ???
I never blamed myself. The loss though... Doesn't feel like a stage. It's permanent. No matter the outcome, I'll never be the same. Anxiety is REAL. Self esteem?? IDK, I've always liked myself. Guys have never been very interested. That's not going to change, I have 7 kids. I still like myself, I have no expectations of finding someone else. I'm just sad, and looking at being alone the rest of my life.

I can never reach step 4. will I be stuck in 3? 6 months now. She cheated but then lied about everything for months.. accused me of cheating (to everyone).. among many other completely mental atitudes turns out in the end. it was because he buys her expensive gifts.
I'm going through the anger phase , not at my husband I already went through that with him , but to the woman that he cheated with. Because she has moved on to someone else to do the same thing to.
I was cheated on by the same woman, both dating and married. The biggest regret was not leaving her right there and then. We did split up years later, but now with a child involved.
His reason was there is this happiness that you cant find in marriage but can find outside....lm still searching where he got that proverb from😢 l thought we were happy😢
The blame for me is how did I ignored red flags and did not see it coming The shock and confusion The withdraw The mistrust Later understood her avoidant attachment something i was aware of at the time. The images in my head it's hard to not see or think about it after catching her cheating on me with old married ex Not getting any closure from her why she did it.
So with my situation, I was with my girlfriend and she was going through breast cancer. Now the whole time she was in love with a coworker and cheating with him in every way possible. Then he decided to end the affair he was married also by the way, and he told her basically she was nothing to him. Just before she had to have surgery and have one of her breast removed. I told her when she tried to do all the sudden love me and want to be with me forever, I said, why would I wanna be with a one titted freak?
When l found it, it was like being hit by a bus. Just pure numness and disbelief. I'm in a good place now. The AP was an overweight loser. I did confront him. That's the best thing l ever did. I felt at rest afterwards.
How do these people deceive then come home and lie to their partners? Sociopaths. I feel like my relationship was a lie.😢 I look at pictures of us and think "did he talk to her that day? Did he see her?"
It is pretty difficult to prove that a wife is cheating in the first place. She can be absent, coming late home. She can start letting her go and gain lots of weight. Perhaps the woman could also look in the mirror?
I’m a woman and I agree it’s harder to prove a woman is cheating than a guy. Both men and women should look in the mirror and learn that if your not happy leave there’s no excuse for cheating
@@HarryAcorns sneaky behavior is a feminine trait by nature. Women excel at it because it’s in their biology. Hence cheating women is hard to catch. If you reverse this behavior, when men become sneaky, they’re prone to mistakes. And if they are very good at being sneaky, then by that same logic they’re more feminine 😅
The point of marriage is not happiness. If you’re not happy, you be an adult and figure that out, not leave… certainly happiness with an affair pattern is very temporary.
Question: is 18 years of a husband watching porn cheating? It was supposed to be over every time we talked about it over this time frame? I'm heartbroken and I do love my husband of 37 years but .....
My ex girlfriend cheated on my multiple times with multiple different guys I found out that she was cheating on me from the day we made started talking she then started dating one of the guy she cheated on me with she then cheated on him with me so I stopped talking to her I later found out that she's been cheating on him with other guys, she's that bad that she went to his birthday on the Thursday and met up with a different guy the next day.. she blamed everything on me made it seem like I was the problem but I was never the problem and I finally realize that I was never the problem, she recently tried to talk to me again but I said sorry we should just stay as strangers lol
I’m so distraught right now. Myself and my wife have not been in a good place for years. We finally separated 7 months ago and got our own separate places to live. We’ve kept a decent friendly relationship with a few arguments here and there. For the last 4-5 months we have talked about seeing other people. She’s told me repetitively that I need to. She’s said it when she was angry and she said it in times when she was not. Well I finally started talking to other women and went on a date last week. She found out by snooping through my privacy and it caused huge issues. Like she’s really hurt and I’m so hurt for it. I feel at my lowest and she’s certainly making sure of that too.
Both wives cheated on me, and full blown PTSD was the result. But ya know what.. both really were my fault. I wore the nice guy who can forgive anything suit so well it gave the greenlight. Eventually tossed them both. Learn about masculine femenine roles and stay in your masculine. Make it clear to your partner whenever necessary, that you have zero tolerance. I will throw you out on your ass. Period. Watch that woman dote on you after you let her know she can be replaced, youre man enough to do it, and you have options.

I didn't blame myself. I wasn't the one who cheated.
It gets better even though you don't see it. It took me a year especially since he was cheating and my daughter and I were grieving the passing of our son and her brother. It went on for 11 years because he was a pilot and she was a flight attendant.. I am remembering who I am again and so much happier.
They always think the individual can do better, when they don't.
Jesus.....Young 22yr old afyer a 3year Relationship....finally catching her Cheating....staying n waiting on change then getting cheated on during that time is Horrendous. I gave her Everything, everyone Hates her, I can't begin to explain it. I avoided women while she spent time with Him. I'll get over it though, the year my sister had a tumor, my light got cut, eviction notice, my BSF of 9 years died..... I'm here with a different strength. I'm gonna get over it though....I always do.
My wife recently did this dirty deed to me and the kids...she monkey branched within days of telling me she wanted out...I looked at her and thought I've been living with a liar ... I've not shed a tear which is making me worried that I might be cold hearted...I forgave her the last time but now I feel nothing it's as if my humanity and warmth have disappeared into a void of nothingness...wish I could cry and cleanse my grief but I just can't...I feel inhuman!
You're not cold-hearted, you're subconsciously avoiding the pain by not allowing yourself to feel it. Possibly, it's because it gives you a sense of control that you believe you have otherwise lost, you're so scared of opening up the Pandora's box and/or any other number of things.
Trust me, the pain is all there and will demand to be felt. Maybe go to counselling/therapy to get help letting it out because otherwise it will express itself negatively. I regret not getting professional support after I was cheated on, I think it could have saved a lot of years of pain.
Its not the actual knife in the back that is so so bad.. its when you turn around and see someone you loved and trusted with your blood on their hands.
it’s honestly hard to hear everyone around you tell you that you are good enough when you really only care about one person’s opinion and their actions say that you weren’t enough.
My ex fiance dumped me a week before the wedding. I didn't know it at the time, but he had knocked up his secretary. I think she baby trapped him.
this is the first time I stumbled upon your video. I commented just to say thank you.
Thank you, subscribe and share⭐️
An affair never really ends psychologically to the one cheated on and the cheater remembers it forever with fondness and this fact influences his/her behavior which means the affair partner is always in your marriage. It never ends!
Thank you for this. Very healing ❤️🩹
Im going through this. The pain is so much. Its been a month since i found out. My confidence is down and I dont know what to do.
7 year relationship took a break for a few months we have kids together and dudes already moved in. Man it hurts just here looking for help this amount of pain is discouraging
Just found out that I got cheated on in a 7 year relationship 💔😭 I’m torn
I have been cheated on in almost every relationship in my life. I’m 48 years old and the last one was the worst one yet. It has destroyed me. She told me she loved me then left me the next day to go back with her abusive ex. He was abusing her one week prior and I got mad about it and that’s what she used as the reason she left me to sleep with him, stop working, drank everyday, lost her apartment, and she blamed for everything. I had a heart attack at work after not eating or sleeping and going to work everyday so the bills got paid. She didn’t care.
How are you doing now?
Would anyone consider going to see an ex as cheating? My wife currently had gone to see her ex-boyfriend to get a (gift) she says. It was a candle 🕯 but i was away with the Army. I've struggled with that for about 3 years now
Y. Not good.
Yes, absolutely. It's an emotional affair and it destroyed my relationship.
@@L.RaeHoldt thank you for your input! 👏
Currently going through this devastation and the pain is so great … I feel physically sick and wish I could crawl into bed and die !! But I’m a mum and I have to be here for my children… I feel so ugly …. And so low 😢 I am in the self blame stage and it’s disgusting…. I don’t want to be here … I feel like I’m grieving the life I should have had with husband and our children… now it’s been destroyed…
The grief and anxiety is so intense … the guilt for my children and what their dad has done to our family is overwhelming….
Take one day at a time, it’s the most horrible thing, I’m 5.5 years out leaving with 5 kids, he was abusive too so I guess it was a blessing, try to find a professional you can talk with and get some of your feelings out etc and be kind to yourself 💜
@@LizEarthAngel3 thank you 🙏 how long did it take for you to get over it ? Wow with 5 kids you’re amazing you should be so proud 🥹 you made the right choice for them and yourself !!
Allow yourself to feel the pain but do not allow it to devalue your self worth.
Be kind and gentle with yourself and your children.
He made his choice. Karma will get to him.
Most excellent work ! Thank you for this !
Yeahhhhh- please share my channel.
My ex accused me of cheating when I never did. He told his friends, my friends and my family about it. He also told me that his ex cheated on him but later he himself told me that she was talking to a guy but not cheating. Sometimes I wonder if people assume that their partners cheated on them, like my ex did.
Living in TRUTH. ❤️
RELIEF!!!!
Nobody is going to want to hear this but one thing in consideration of what shocked your whole being is that now that other person IS inside of you sort of an extra terrestrial that’s one reason in my opinion why the hurt can be so deep because of unauthorized person
I totally get this!
You talk about working less? We were 3 days away from closing on a house, when she came home and announced she gave up her management job to go back on the front desk (a pay reduction of 700 a month). I had to take the extra work to pay the bills, or walk away from the deal and lose 24k (I should have, I ended up losing a 1/4 mil). My working 80 hours a week was her excuse, and going back on the front desk where she met him. It lasted 4 months and ended with a date rape. Imagine learning your wife was date raped 30 miles from home while your at work ... I loved her so much ???
I never blamed myself. The loss though... Doesn't feel like a stage. It's permanent. No matter the outcome, I'll never be the same. Anxiety is REAL. Self esteem?? IDK, I've always liked myself. Guys have never been very interested. That's not going to change, I have 7 kids. I still like myself, I have no expectations of finding someone else. I'm just sad, and looking at being alone the rest of my life.
I can never reach step 4.
will I be stuck in 3? 6 months now.
She cheated but then lied about everything for months.. accused me of cheating (to everyone).. among many other completely mental atitudes
turns out in the end. it was because he buys her expensive gifts.
I'm going through the anger phase , not at my husband I already went through that with him , but to the woman that he cheated with. Because she has moved on to someone else to do the same thing to.
I was cheated on by the same woman, both dating and married.
The biggest regret was not leaving her right there and then.
We did split up years later, but now with a child involved.
This is spot on! thanks
needed this man... thanks
If someone cheats ONCE there is a 350 per cent chance, they’ll do it again. In the stats: research it. Wish I knew this years ago.
Me too
😢 dear God heal my heart lm tired , l dnt wanna loose myself
Im also saying the same thing. Im about to give up on everything
His reason was there is this happiness that you cant find in marriage but can find outside....lm still searching where he got that proverb from😢 l thought we were happy😢
emotions are always real
but the worst adviser to follow
Thank you ❤
Number 4 is a tough one to get over.
Thank you
The blame for me is how did I ignored red flags and did not see it coming
The shock and confusion
The withdraw
The mistrust
Later understood her avoidant attachment something i was aware of at the time.
The images in my head it's hard to not see or think about it after catching her cheating on me with old married ex
Not getting any closure from her why she did it.
So with my situation, I was with my girlfriend and she was going through breast cancer. Now the whole time she was in love with a coworker and cheating with him in every way possible. Then he decided to end the affair he was married also by the way, and he told her basically she was nothing to him. Just before she had to have surgery and have one of her breast removed. I told her when she tried to do all the sudden love me and want to be with me forever, I said, why would I wanna be with a one titted freak?
😮😮😮
When l found it, it was like being hit by a bus. Just pure numness and disbelief. I'm in a good place now. The AP was an overweight loser. I did confront him. That's the best thing l ever did. I felt at rest afterwards.
How do these people deceive then come home and lie to their partners? Sociopaths.
I feel like my relationship was a lie.😢 I look at pictures of us and think "did he talk to her that day? Did he see her?"
"Everything was a lie" - exactly regardless of the gaslighting.
It is pretty difficult to prove that a wife is cheating in the first place. She can be absent, coming late home. She can start letting her go and gain lots of weight. Perhaps the woman could also look in the mirror?
I’m a woman and I agree it’s harder to prove a woman is cheating than a guy. Both men and women should look in the mirror and learn that if your not happy leave there’s no excuse for cheating
How is it harder to prove a woman is cheating? What do they do different than men that make it so? Please.
@@HarryAcorns sneaky behavior is a feminine trait by nature. Women excel at it because it’s in their biology. Hence cheating women is hard to catch. If you reverse this behavior, when men become sneaky, they’re prone to mistakes. And if they are very good at being sneaky, then by that same logic they’re more feminine 😅
The point of marriage is not happiness. If you’re not happy, you be an adult and figure that out, not leave… certainly happiness with an affair pattern is very temporary.
Question: is 18 years of a husband watching porn cheating? It was supposed to be over every time we talked about it over this time frame? I'm heartbroken and I do love my husband of 37 years but .....
Yes. He might be a sex addict, which means he needs counseling/recover therapy.
Yes, especially since he told you he was stopping. Any lie is a form of betrayal
Ma'am, the audio volume is too low.
My ex girlfriend cheated on my multiple times with multiple different guys I found out that she was cheating on me from the day we made started talking she then started dating one of the guy she cheated on me with she then cheated on him with me so I stopped talking to her I later found out that she's been cheating on him with other guys, she's that bad that she went to his birthday on the Thursday and met up with a different guy the next day.. she blamed everything on me made it seem like I was the problem but I was never the problem and I finally realize that I was never the problem, she recently tried to talk to me again but I said sorry we should just stay as strangers lol
Reduced self esteem
I’m so distraught right now. Myself and my wife have not been in a good place for years. We finally separated 7 months ago and got our own separate places to live. We’ve kept a decent friendly relationship with a few arguments here and there.
For the last 4-5 months we have talked about seeing other people. She’s told me repetitively that I need to. She’s said it when she was angry and she said it in times when she was not.
Well I finally started talking to other women and went on a date last week. She found out by snooping through my privacy and it caused huge issues. Like she’s really hurt and I’m so hurt for it. I feel at my lowest and she’s certainly making sure of that too.
I went through all these phases but in a different Oder
Definately more women cheat
I hate my husbandand ill never forgive him!
Cheating is far too soft a term.
Betrayal
Betrayal
🙏
Both wives cheated on me, and full blown PTSD was the result. But ya know what.. both really were my fault. I wore the nice guy who can forgive anything suit so well it gave the greenlight. Eventually tossed them both.
Learn about masculine femenine roles and stay in your masculine. Make it clear to your partner whenever necessary, that you have zero tolerance. I will throw you out on your ass. Period.
Watch that woman dote on you after you let her know she can be replaced, youre man enough to do it, and you have options.
Just cause u were nice doesn’t give them the right to treat u like that
The hardest part for men is we have to shut up and man up cuz nobody really cares

All the narcissist podcasts talk about everything other than the topic. It takes too long to rely the topic.
