Drove my car into the woods and shouted at the top of my voice for about 20 minutes.

Then cried every day for about 18 months.

Got up and sped home to punch a hole in my bedroom wall.

I was at her place and she was in the shower, saw some things on her phone.

Got up and sped home to punch a hole in my bedroom wall.

I was fairly upset.

She was texting and calling for a couple of days before I told her what I found.

The last text between us was her saying are you gonna break up with me?

:(

Spent a day blitzing through my house throwing out anything that reminded me of her.

I cried a lot and got pretty angry.

Blocked her and her family on everything.

Spent the last month redecorating, reconnecting with friends and changing up my lifestyle.

It sucks but Im not going to let it destroy me.

I peed in her car air vents.

I peed in her car air vents.

My best buddys sister is her roommate and she said the car reeked of piss for weeks.

All was good I thought.

Turns out it was planned).

Threw myself into my work, gaming, BMXing, Anything.

8 years later and I still cant trust women because of her.

I crawled into a bottle.

I drank…like a lot.

It was while in the Army stationed in Germany back in the 90s.

She had been cheating on me with several other soldiers.

So we broke up, obviously.

She gave me back my ring.

I crawled into a bottle and had the best 18 months of my life.

I was in shock.

On my birthday, she told me.

I was in shock, and we just kind of sat in the same room for about 10 minutes.

It was so creepy, she just sat there with no expression, then she went to bed.

About 15 minutes later, I walked in, told her to get out.

Suddenly she burst into tears.

I shut the door and sat in the room for a while, not even tired.

20-30 minutes later, there are flashing lights in the driveway.

She attempted suicide by rubbing a credit card back and forth across her wrists.

They took her to the looney bin after a quick hospital trip.

She called me the next day and told me how everything was my fault.

I spoke with the social services lady and requested that Im never contacted again.

Yeah, sure, no problem, who is it?

Its the guy (and his wife) that she cheated on me with.

I politely explain this to her, and she says, I understand.

I filled with rage.

Happened to me January 2017.

Was living together on her parents property.

Was a smallholding and she ran a (mothers)guesthouse on it.

We were really happy.

She complained that I was gaining weight.

After a couple of weeks of this, I suspected something was wrong.

This particular night, I joined her, playing poker with some of the guests.

I had a long day at work and went to the gym, so I was a bit tired.

All of them have been playing cards and drinking the entire afternoon.

I said goodnight and went to bed.

A while later I had a bad feeling and went to check on everyone.

No one is there.

Everyone went to bed, and my GF is not in our place with me.

I called her, no answer.

I see the shirtless guest in the background locking his door when he saw me.

I filled with rage.

She was immediately mad at me, for being too suspicions.

I just asked her if anything happened, she said: No, nothing happened!

They did fool around I later found out.

I get it now.

Feel awesome and happy!

Secretly I was making plans.

Time came (like a week later), and I had cheater drop me at work.

I had already explained to them, and they knew I was leaving the state.

Got picked up by my ex.

Broke into the apartment (didnt have a key), got my boxes and left.

Moved back home two states away.

Cheater realized it when she got home and all sorts of things (mine) were missing.

I told her I couldnt do it and was going home.

She couldnt understand why I left her.

Had her mom call me.

Mom said good for you in a long conversation.

I wish it was all a bad dream.

I was so overwhelmed with emotions.

Mad, sad, disappointment, and disbelief.

I didnt want any of it to happen, I wish it was all a bad dream.

I dont wish it on anyone.

I just ate myself into a depression.

She told me after I questioned why shed been distant.

I gave her a hug, walked out her house and blocked her from everything.

No way was I dealing with that shit again.

I never did the hit the gym kind of thing, I just ate myself into a depression.

DENIALNo, theres no way she would do such a thing right?

It just doesnt make sense, I said, still suspicious.

Queue some argument I cant remember followed by the longest bus ride back home.

I was still in denial ate that point.

Probably still in love then too… even when finally she admitted it.

ANGERHow come she gets to be happy?

Whilst I feel like dogshit?

I thought, repeatedly.

Write a letter detailing all your thoughts but dont send it, burn it.

Guess I forgot the last step.

Why….Oh, I guess this is life now.

ACCEPTANCEIll let you know when I reach this one, otherwise, loop back to ANGER.

I felt disgusted with not only her, but myself.

Turned out I was the one she was cheating with.

Somehow, she managed to hide not only her husband but two kids.

Restaurant was two floors, and the patio was up top, so she didnt see me.

Next time we met up, I confronted her about it, and she broke down.

I ended it then and there.

I felt disgusted with not only her, but myself.

To be put in that spot made me hate myself in a way.

I wanted more than anything to tell her husband, but I didnt.

I probably should have, but theres no way to know which choice was right.

Ill always wonder if I made the right call or not.

I asked Kisses goodnight?

What does that mean?

She refused to look at me, and just kept watching the TV.

What does that mean?

I turned off the TV and asked her point blank have you been cheating on me with your boss?

and she broke down crying.

I didnt know what to do.

I said Im breaking up with you?

phrased as a question, because I couldnt believe I was saying it.

I was angry at her, but mostly I was just hurt.

I took all my essentials and left the next day, taking a two-hour drive to my mothers house.

I slept through the New Years celebrations.

I dont know why she told me those things, she had never been that hurtful during our relationship.

All of her friends turned against her after the cheating, but I think theyre on good terms now.

It was the most disgust Ive ever felt in my life.

She was my first girlfriend.

She gave me a huge hug and I asked her why she was so upset.

It was then she told me… that she wanted to break up.

Blindsided and confused, I wanted to know why.

She refused to tell me, just saying over and over again how we cant be together anymore.

I told her that whatever it was, we could fix it.

It was the most disgust Ive ever felt in my life.

I couldnt touch her, could barely stand to look at her, she literally repulsed me.

After the truth came out, she started bawling and tried desperately to stay together.

She told me that whatever it was, we could fix it.

It was hard to do, but breaking up then was one of the best decisions of my life.

We were crashing at a friends house after a wedding.

To this day I have never badmouthed her to anyone about the whole thing.

It was a decision she made, it is what it is.

I blew off some steam the 24 hours directly after I found it, and have never looked back.

I immediately felt sick to my stomach.

The shame that went with it was incredible.

My now ex-wife and I had been distant for a couple of months.

One night I saw her being very protective of her tablet that she usually used for gaming.

I turned it on and saw her email was opened and an email to herself was still open.

I immediately felt sick to my stomach.

The shame that went with it was incredible.

Thinking I had to keep this secret to not appear a failure to family, friends, and coworkers.

The physical and emotional pain that I felt was something I dont wish on anyone.

The fatigue is something I wont forget either.

I couldnt even read it.

I wasnt angry at first, I immediately thought of was my fault for not being attentive enough.

I walked back upstairs with the tablet and confronted her with it.

She didnt deny it (how could she?)

All on the day before our 1st wedding anniversary.

I tried to make it work with her for the next 4 months but nothing I did worked.

Date nights didnt impress and we moved hoping that a new start was what we needed.

Cashed out my vacation and pension from my job so that do so as well.

She left me for him 2 weeks after the move.

Currently divorced and Im now dating someone amazing, but the trust issues are hard to get rid of.

Kids, dont eat poison to convince yourself youre tough.

I lucked out and didnt have any repercussions, but it easily couldve gone awry.

I had a glass of gin to calm myself.

This happened fairly recently.

I had met my ex gf in college and we dated for three years.

We were seeing each other less and less.

I always tried to make time, but she didnt.

She cancelled plans often, and if she kept them she would show up five hours late.

Last summer, she started texting this guy constantly.

Every time Id glance at her phone, there would be a message from him.

Every time she stayed over, hed call her late at night.

She also told me he was moving to Alabama.

This went on for a while.

We started seeing each other for a bit.

She framed it like I was more important to her than this other guy, which sadly I bought.

I immediately put two and two together and confronted her.

She told me she went down when we werent together and that nothing happened.

She had left her laptop at my house.

Ive never been the punch in to snoop, but I had to.

With trembling fingers, I opened her laptop.

I opened her pictures folder, and I typed in his name.

A folder popped up.

Lots of pictures of countryside in the south.

Then a picture of him, shirtless, in a bed.

Then, pictures of them kissing.

And pictures of them in a hot tub.

I closed the file and opened her Facebookshe had left herself logged in.

There is something interesting about seeing what someone you love writes to someone else.

There is a lot of overlap.

She compliments him the same way.

He says he loves her.

He pours out his insecurities to her.

They say goodnight to each other every night, or rather they did up until January.

Somehow it ended, and he was asking her if she was seeing anyone else.

She was being her typical evasive self, not answering the question.

I felt for him: He obviously never knew about me.

To him, I was the other guy.

As Im sitting in my room, seething, she sends me a cute text message.

I had a glass of gin to calm myself.

Id say I hatched a plan, but it didnt really work like that.

I just instantly knew what I was going to do.

I took her laptop and drove down to her hometown and stopped by a coffee shop.

I sent him a message on Facebook.

I then drove right to her parents house, and delivered the laptop to them.

She asked me why.

That was the last kind thing Ill ever do for my ex.

As I was walking back to the car, she calls me twice.

I block her number, and unfriend her on all social media.

I had one more call to make.

He was married, and an all around good guy.

I told him everything.

He was upset, saying he couldnt believe it.

We still keep in touch.

At this point, I felt great; elated even.

I was giddy on my drive back home.

The other guy called me that night.

He was a mess.

Apparently he had called her and confronted her.

He seemed like a nice guy, but holy shit was he needy.

What was interesting was that I ended up comforting him; telling him the things he needed to hear.

I had no hate for him at all, and tried to get him to move on.

A few months later, and Im doing great!

Ive also been dating again.

Im definitely not ready for anything serious, but its nice to feel wanted.

She still drives by my apartment regularly.

I fucking felt like dying.

She started working with a friend of mine at this place.

I FUCKING CALLED IT IN ADVANCE.

Lost my job as I was pretty bad into drugs.

She said she didnt wanna be with an unemployed person and said we needed a break.

Im pretty sure she fucked him that night, or at least that week, probably more than once.

I fucking felt like dying.

So I tried to forgive her and take her back.

That lasted about a week.

Never actually broke up with her.

Just let her think we were together.

Went to a party a few months after, still tore up about her.

I met a girl who was into me and asked ME out.

Said to myself why the hell not?

We started dating, eventually move in together.

EX-GF started FREAKING OUT when she sees Im in a relationship on Facebook.

Chews me out saying Im cheating on her, etc.

Deleted that bitch off my social media WITH AUTHORITY.

Lets Recap our current situations.

Ex-GF: Now a massive coke-fiend, weedhead and PCP addict.

Still single, and has been rode hard and put away wet.

Hits me up on occasion to send me nude pics.

Guy she cheated with: Failing, unemployed wannabe musician.

Thinks hes gonna make it in music, but he is nowhere close.

My life is better because she wanted to slut it up.

A loser I felt like indeed.

To be honest, I cared a little too much.

So like any other boyfriend, I trust her to do whats right for our relationship without hesitation.

Within the first week I started to see pictures on Facebook of her with 2 other guys.

So seeing those pictures didnt make me nervous.

So I started to think.

Thinking about the first night we met was sort of an awakening for me.

I shrugged it off until I had a verrry unproductive looong day at work.

I decided I was going to hack into her Facebook.

I knew her email, just needed the password.

I breezed thru the first 2 security questions but was having a difficult time with the third one.

Where do you want your honeymoon?

Now we werent in that deep to be discussing that topic so I didnt have a clue.

So I text her, trying to play it cool easing into the conversation before the perfect opportunity came.

Instead of asking Duhhhh honeymoon duhhhhh???

I play it smooth.

If you could go anywhere right now, where would it be?

I immediately look at her messages, and my head collapses.

Asking her questions like Why do you want to go home to that loser?

A loser I felt like indeed.

So I surprise her by showing up at her apartment before she gets home.

I wasnt in school and was hoping she didnt know that.

I say, I know what you did.

I hacked your Facebook.

Her jaw drops How did y, wh, how?

I respond, Youre worried about how, and not why, because you know why.

Cabo San Lucas…?

I left her feeling the same way I felt when I found out, betrayed.

I thought Id be mad.

It turned me on.

I thought Id be mad.

It turned me on.

Which was a strange reaction to have.

But it really turned me on in ways that are hard to describe.

She told me about what happened, what they did, what he did to her.

And I was immediately aroused.

I rage-fucked her in the heat of that moment and it was one hot, passionate mess.

She whimpered with lust during our sex, Ive been a naughty girl!

Fuck me like a naughty girl.

This strange, undiscovered, magic.

But we also discovered hotwifing.

Im turned on by my wife with another man.

Seems strange to pop in that.

Anyway, there it is.

Happily married 20 years with active, pre-approved mischievous intimate evenings with others from time to time.

I felt physical pain, nausea, my legs felt weak and I almost fell to the floor.

Happened once, a long time agoin 1982.

Me, my GF and my best friend went to spend the weekend in a beach house.

His GF was supposed to go, but canceled in the last minute.

After dinner we were chatting and I dozed off.

Woke up by myself, went looking for them.

I opened a bedroom door and found them spooning.

Both fully clothed, so I couldnt be sure what had happened or not, but still.

I felt physical pain, nausea, my legs felt weak and I almost fell to the floor.

It is hard to explain.

Its not that she felt attracted to him.

Its not that my friend would do something like that.

No, the worst part was to feel that she wanted to cause me so much pain.

Why, why would someone I loved decide to torture me to the breaking point like that?

She caught up with me while I was putting the backpack inside the trunk.

Are you just leaving me her with him?

I just looked at her.

There was nothing I could say.

I dont want to be here with him, she said.

I just looked at her.

Can you hey wait?

I dont want you to leave like that.

Let me get my stuff, I came here with you and I will go back with you.

I felt it was the honorable thing to do, at least drive her home if she wanted/needed that.

It was the most dangerous drive of my live.

This was going up from the shore to Sao Paulo, in Brazil.

Theres a mountain range in between, and the road was dangerous to begin with.

I was also out of my mind.

I was raging mad, I wanted to kill her, I wanted to die.

The endless line of semis carrying cargo from the big Santos port presented endless opportunities to just die.

So did the cliffs on the side of the mountain.

I was weaving through traffic, going as fast as I could, I just wanted everything to end.

She was trying to talk with me.

We just fell asleep talking.

I dont know how we ended up in that position.

hey talk to me.

I did not say a word the whole trip.

Gas lasted enough to reach her place.

When we parked, she still wanted to talk.

I remember sitting on the hood of the car, listening to what she had to say.

Nothing happened, you have got to believe me.

I was too hurt to even understand, let alone believe anything.

At some point she stormed into the house, mad at me.

Somehow, she was mad at me.

Or to be precise, 160 Km/h.

Cut me some slack, I was 18.

Many things happened in the years since.

I talked to her again not too long ago, I think it was 2010.

Met online by chance.

I have been happily married for years to a woman I love and who loves me.

I have a wonderful son and my life is awesome.

And so I asked her in 2010, casually, so its been almost 30 years.

Im happy, married, have a child.

Youre also married, you also have a child, you seem happy.

Nothing that happened that night matters anymore, but I am curious.

Can you finally tell me what happened?

I dont know, she said.

I really, really dont know.
