Well funny thing doesn`t affect me, but i had put boundaries, i said that either of us IF WE even THINK bringing someone on to the PROPERTY, one of us has to leave with that person or anywhere else. To hear her getting "pumped" by the new guy, and me in the next room? for real? afte 8 years together? I told her i`ll cut her throat! Because she just thrown shit and mudded all my trust and loyality towards her and everything in it... My devotion, Loyality, Support that i gave her all this years... Is enough that she comes "home" with flowers, and cakes, and buys condoms... so don`t need more drama in my life, plus she just SEALED my Heart for good, so its Cemented well for years to come, and plus all her family & friends knowing about this, and she didn`t bother to tell me face 2 face, i had to find "out by mistake" that was a bigger betrayal, that proves not even her family and friend, not even ONE won`t be on YOUR side when shit hits the fan, so... yeah... Betrayal is the worse... the Confidence, and Trust, Believeing another Woman from now on? IS GONE!, She did a good Job!

I have been cheated on twice. The first time, I had been dating this girl for about three or four months. I still spent time with an ex-roommate and she cheated with him. I had not been thinking of her as The One for me, but I did like her and we had agreed to date exclusively. We stayed in the relationship for several months after but I immediately had no respect for her and thought of her as just a female body to use for sex. And I used her just as much as I could. I should have immediately broken up with her and would never again take this approach.

Second time, I learned about it while our divorce was in progress. We were already living separately and the divorce was soon final.

I’ve been cheated on by only one guy that I know of. I broke up with him soon after finding
out about it. I would never be able to stay with someone who cheated because I would always look at him differently after that.

Diving into the heartache and healing of staying post-infidelity, let me share that it's like navigating a rollercoaster without the safety bar. You’ve got the highs of rebuilding—moments filled with hope and renewed connection, making you feel like love has a fighting chance. Then, there are the lows—shadows of doubt and trust hanging like a fog, where every unanswered text or late night could send your heart into a tailspin. It's an emotional marathon, not a sprint, requiring superhuman strength in forgiveness and bucketloads of communication. Picture it as putting together a puzzle, where half the pieces have changed shape. It's tough, it’s messy, but for some, finding a way back to each other makes the journey worth it. Love can emerge stronger, but boy, it demands everything you've got and then some. Remember, it’s not just about staying; it’s about thriving together. So, keep those communication channels wide open and let the healing begin. 💔➡️❤️

I have never been cheated on. I would never stay with a cheater.

I would envision that you'd be tormented. You'd have flashbacks come to your mind out of the blue envisioning them with their affair partner, what they did, said, experienced together. You'd probably have anxiety all the time. Whenever they are running late from work or texting or calling someone. Whenever they go out, you'll wonder, are they really doing what they say or texting who they say they are or are they lying and sneaking around again. You'll be playing detective all the time and keeping up with them.

It isn't worth it. The trust and closeness you once had will never be the same and you'll have so much pain and anxiety and doubt that it is much better to just end it cold turkey and let all that stuff go. You can start a new relationship with someone else with a pure, clean slate. Once that isn't tainted and full of pain and anxiety.

I don't stick around for that stuff. I was seeing a woman once who was messing around with other guys, and when I confronted her about it she got angry. Needless to say we were over after that.

I would never stay with a cheater. I would be disrespecting myself and being a fool. They would just figure they can always do it and I'll always forgive them.

I was with the asshole for 6 years she ran off and got engaged to an ugly scrawny jackass covered in tattoos while I was sick with cancer and battling being homeless.

Her backstabbing family and friends knew it and withheld it from me

Billlewis · Answer

She became more brazen in her affairs with other guys, and treated me even worse than before.
