Dated for 5 years, engaged for 1.5.
Im not a jealous man, she had a lot of male friends at work.
Well, comeXmas office partytime she said only employees were invited and I believed her.
She came home pretty drunk at about 4, cuddled with me and told me she loved me.
She denied it until buddy got pictures from someone who was there.

She started hanging out with an old group of high school friends and just changed.
If I had one more guest than she did, she made me remove someone from my side.

She cheated and eventually chose him instead.
She cheated and eventually chose him instead.
And it was the best thing that ever happened to me.
Went back to school, got a career, and met a wonderful person to spend my life with.

She told me that I needed to choose between her and my family.
My ex-fiance and I kept disagreeing about stuff for the wedding.
My family offered to help out on some things and she agreed to give a little ground.
I found out a week later that she and her mom had completely changed everything without telling me.
Most of these changes I couldnt afford.
When I confronted her about it, she asked me where I had heard that.
I told her my sister had told me.
She told me that I needed to choose between her and my family.

Was with my s/o for 3 years before we got engaged.
I tried to be supportive and help her through it, but we started arguing about small things constantly.
Mole hills started to become mountains and we started to fall apart.
Not long after our four-year anniversary she got the news her father had passed away.
OnValentines Day, no less.
She had left the engagement ring on the bed for me to find.
I never did get an explanation, only that she didnt feel love between us anymore.
Sometimes you just have to accept what happened and push on.

During her finals, she goes and sees this wealthy powerful politician from Europe give a speech.
He kind of hits on her and says his son is looking for an American wife.
So my second year she went away to a very prestigious all-girls school on the east coast.
Almost immediately she starts in about marriage and me dropping out and living near her.
But she sticks on it, so we get engaged right before finals when I went to visit.
She is sooooo happy.

On my birthday, she doesnt call and I figure my worst fears are true.
I truly believe she was 100% in love with me just a few weeks before.
Part of me doesnt blame her and part of me thinks that she is a selfish snake.
Anyway, they got married, he was on horseback with a sword and everything.

She cheated on me with a double-digit amount of guys, and girls apparently.
She had an orgy with minors and fucked her own cousin, just to name a few people.

The red flags werent there and I found out only because her family ratted her out.
She took weeks to fess up but later admitted to everything in detail.

She had to know where I was every moment of the day.
As far as she was concerned, my sole reason for existence was to do whatever she wanted.
She was controlling, manipulative, and abusive.
She got worse after the engagement.
I wasnt allowed to have any friends or dive into the internet.
I couldnt watch TV, go to movies, or read any books without her permission first.

As far as she was concerned, my sole reason for existence was to do whatever she wanted.
One day, I got fed up with something she wanted me to do and told her no.
She said that she couldnt marry me if I wasnt willing to do what she asked.
She broke off the engagement a few days later.
A few months later, she called me to attempt to get back together with me.
She didnt think that the breakup would be permanent.
She just thought that I would be so unhappy without her that I would go crawling back to her.

It was a fun time.

She had an abortion without my knowledge.
I found out during a fight that she had an abortion while we were together.
It was one of those petty arguments that people in their 20s get into.
She kept trying to rip me down, but every time she did I kinda clowned her back.
So I stopped fighting with her and just started packing some stuff up.
So, at this point shes really mad that I dont want to fight any more.
And when I told her that she won and nothing I could say would be so shitty.
So of course then the crying starts and shes sorry, etc.
I told her I wasnt even mad about the abortion.
People go through things.
If the time wasnt right, it wasnt right.
If she would have told me I would have drove her there and paid for it.
I just wasnt going to spend my life with someone that would pull something like that out.
Just to win a fight over me wanting to take her out on a date.

14. tl;dr she was unfaithful.
eventually it broke me.
Six months later she died.
We had been dating for a year.
It had ups and downs.
The good times were the best I had.
The bad times were breaking.
Still, it was the most connected Ive ever felt with any partner.
There had been red flags but I remained hopeful, from promises and signs of change.
I recreated our first date on our 1y anniversary.
We had the same restaurant, same table.
I made sure the same waitress would be there.
I wore the same clothes.
After dinner we went home and I proposed with acustom magic deck.
Infidelities uncovered and likely more I didnt know haunts the next year.
Each time finding truth was like pulling teeth.
Reluctant half-confessions in the face of evidence.
Then came the custody battle for my daughter.
Our wedding date was pushed back with each violation of trust.
For a couple months I even called it off.
Still we were engaged again because I could not see a future without her in my life.
I secretly made playlists.
So many songs so painful to hear now.
I distanced myself from her and her children.
Fuck the patriarchy).
Everything that could be canceled was.
Everything that could be returned was.
I dont know what happened to the dress in the end.
Her response was getting wasted and cheating on me more, to feel wanted in her words.
Two people who love each other so much shouldnt be apart.
In hindsight, it wasnt fair to say she didnt love me.
She just couldnt be faithful.
They both got into AA.
They seemed a good match.
We found things belonging to each other and exchanged them.
She sold me back the Magic decks I had built for her.
We talked about the kids (all from past relationships).
We saw each other Christmas Eve and exchanged presents and hugs.
I cried feeling her in my arms once more.
I drove down to Oregon with my daughter to spend Christmas with my mother.
On the 27th I received a phone call from my exs son.
He told me her boyfriend found her unresponsive in her bathtub.
She was in hospital but had no signs of significant brain activity.
My daughter and I came home, then said our goodbyes to her in hospital.
Her mother ended life support a couple weeks later after dozens of brain scans provided no hope.
It was years ago now yet I still love her.
I tried to be in another relationship but it failed.
I hadnt grieved and Im still not done grieving.
Someday Ill be ok though and my life will move on.
Until then the radio and old moving boxes are minefields finding joy and heartache in equal measure.

We were about four months from the wedding.
My heart felt like it imploded in my chest.
Ive never felt so many emotions at once.
I confronted her and she lied about the whole ordeal.
Finally, I told her how I found out and she reluctantly decided to stop lying about it happening.
Then she started lying about how often and when.

I logged in and found her various escapades going back at least three of the six years.
We were together for six years, engaged for two I believe.
Was waiting for her to finish college.
She began to distance herself, and finally, her best friend called me over.
This was when Facebook was only available to those with a school ID.
She showed me some pop in of not normal conversations were going on.
Back then you could only see the whole conversation if you were friends with both.
Angry is a pretty good analysis of how I was feeling.
Despite all the evidence, she still denies it to this day.
Still, best thing to happen to me.

We were happy, bought a house together but eventually just grew apart.
Together for 8 years, engaged for most of that.
We were high-school sweethearts.
We were happy, bought a house together but eventually just grew apart.
It was an amicable break up and were still friends.
It just became apparent that we wanted very different things in life.
