Break Up & Divorce

For those caught cheating, what did it feel like when the truth came out?

Yesterday, I found out that I was the other woman.

Looking back, there were some red flags, but I trusted him. What he told me made sense at the time. He said he had already broken up with the mother of his child. Whenever I went to his apartment, she and their son were never there. There were no signs that a woman lived there—no clothes, no personal belongings. It looked like the apartment of a single man.

I went there several times, and he also stayed at my place often. I never saw him hiding messages or taking suspicious phone calls. It wasn’t until recently that more red flags started appearing, so I decided to look into things more carefully.

That’s when I discovered the truth.

I contacted his wife to tell her what had been happening. I didn’t do it out of revenge. I did it because I felt terrible once I realized I had been lied to, and I also felt awful for her and for their child.

After everything that happened, I realized that this man had been lying to both of us. In my opinion, he didn’t deserve either of us.

I’m genuinely curious about something from the perspective of someone who has cheated:

If you’ve ever been in a situation where your wife and your girlfriend ended up communicating with each other and the truth came out, what did that feel like? What was going through your mind?
