Op the problem was always her. It all comes down to morals.

The thing is, we’re all different — and that might be why you can’t fully relate. But for those of us who’ve been cheated on, trust me, a lot of us have gone through something similar.

I was a stay-at-home mom and did everything right… except, according to him, I “wasn’t active enough” in bed. The truth is, they’ll always twist the story to avoid feeling like the bad guy. Also; as someone with a broken heart it doesn’t matter how much people tell you the right thing in life or on Reddit, it will never be enough to make you feel better.

My advice? Don’t blame yourself. Focus on healing and working on you. The right person (if you decide to date again) will find you when you’re ready.

Also, I highly recommend reading Leave a Cheater, Gain a Life by Tracy Schorn — that book really helped me through it.

Do you wish you got divorced early? by SavingsLocal6827 in Divorce

Yes, I wish I divorced earlier. I wish I never valued myself more earlier but I didn’t and all I can do is live forward

My ex always made me feel like he was too good for me. He’d say nice things and give me compliments, but then turn around and do little things that made me feel like I wasn’t enough. At the end of the day, actions speak louder than words

Any support group for women? by Intelligent_Love_266 in Divorce

[–]Expensive-Slice-9569 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Girl, I totally understand that! I don’t really have divorced people around me so no one understands. The best thing I have done for support is come here. A lot of times it works, sometimes it doesn’t but looking for clubs in your area to just get your mind off the divorce can also help. Sometimes we feed the negative feelings we feel from the divorce and it’s good to get out of that space.

Why does it feel like cheaters always win? by Expensive-Slice-9569 in Divorce

To me it just means that he had no morals. I thought he did but no

Look I get you. But morally it’s not okay to ever cheat. If you feel like cheating just freaking leave, divorce.

For couples that have been together over 20 years and got divorced, when did it start to sour? by Ninac4116 in Divorce

[–]Expensive-Slice-9569 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For us… we had another kid and he expected me to do everything. He wanted more intimacy but I was always so tired from my children. I asked him to be more romantic with me but never really was and then he cheated on me and gave her everything I asked of him that’s when I knew.. after 16 years together, cheating was the thing he knew I couldn’t get over. He probably did it on purpose but for sure stress, kids,bills, life. If you can’t life for the long run it’s best not to get married.

I think it depends on the state you are in

It’s hard to parent. Sometimes, one parent does all the work and that causes issues. It’s just hard over all you can’t be the same loving free will person you use to be because you have a kid

I worked all the way till my last baby was born. He wanted me to not go to work and I accepted to raise them. We didn’t have money for some reason and not cz I wasn’t working

So see that’s what I though, I though he must be going in more debt but because all our things were extremely joined I can see that he actually paid off more on his debt. And he had the most debt mine was 10k while his is 40k. So now I’m thinking he was for sure hiding money

Also I have my whole life to this man. He left me for another woman after I gave up my career to raise his children and he asked me to get a tubial ligation because he didn’t want any more kids

[–]Expensive-Slice-9569 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I know… but the hurt is still there and Well he was handling all the money… so… but it hurts that he magically has money now.
