Infidelity is always a painful subject for people, who are in a marriage and who love their spouses more than anything. Once a spouse has cheated, it’s so hard to bring the trust back and to return to a relationship where everything is fine. Our today’s heroine is a woman, who cheated on her husband 13 times, and now she’s working hard to save her marriage with a husband, whom she loves sincerely.
A woman, 28, started her post, saying, «I know that I’m a horrible person, and I’m incredibly lucky to even have a second chance to save my marriage after single-handedly destroying everything sacred in this relationship.»
She continues her story and provides shocking details. The woman wrote, «I cheated with multiple people over the course of about a year. It was mostly a series of one-night stands, even though there were two people that I met up with more than once. My husband unfortunately had to tolerate a lot of bad things from me when he found out, I lied about things, I blame-shifted, gaslighted him and manipulated him and tried to make it seem like he’s overreacting.»
When some user asked her about the reasoning behind her infidelity, the woman honestly replied to them in the comments. She explained, «I think more people need to understand this, because it is often implied that cheating only happens in a bad primary relationship. In truth, there isn’t always a ’motive’.»
«Sure, some people who cheat are in broken marriages. But many people are in broken marriages, and not everyone cheats. There are also people like me who are in perfectly healthy marriages and still cheat. I honestly think there’s zero correlation between having a bad marriage and cheating, and anyone who says otherwise in lying to themselves.»
«No, I didn’t resent my husband, and there was nothing wrong with our love life. There is no ’motive’. As I said, I did it because I wanted to. I had everything and I still wanted more because I was selfish, and I didn’t have empathy for how my husband would feel. It really is just as simple as that
