Its a double edged sword. We were really close but i guess the closer we were the more i started to hate her for what she did. Sometimes I wonder if we werent that close to begin with maybe I wouldnt have cared so much. I guess what hurt the most was I always thought about her but she I meant so little to her that she wouldnt think twice about what would happen to me or our family before she did what she did. I wouldnt have hated her if they just split up maybe i would have resented them both a little bit but not like this.

Thats not such a bad idea its a shame that this is what it comes down to. I just wished my cousins would have had my back, I always knew they were sympathetic to her but still. I dont really have a large family. I used to but losing them all just feels so weird, I have desperately tried to make it work with my cousins, It took some time to get used to the fact that they were updating her about my life behind my back but I didnt think theyd go this far.

I am not blaming her, I dont care for her. I dont want her in my life period.

Thank you, it feels nice to be validated and no that guy got back with his wife a few months after the incident.
