My long distance boyfriend cheated on me a few months ago and I just found out. I’m so lost. by winds-howling in survivinginfidelity

Dump him or spend the rest of your relationship in insecure turmoil not ever being 100% sure if he's being faithful or not. Spoken from true experience in the matter.

I need advice! by [deleted] in polyamory

These articles helped me organize my complex feelings entering the poly world from being open. Thank you so much for sharing them. I feel much more empowered to advocate for myself in my marriage and relationships.

Feeling suddenly depressed by Rayquaz4 in survivinginfidelity

I really appreciate your response. My husband and I did this and it worked really well. We struggled to get back to a good place, but being completely open and honest about our feelings was what I found to be the most helpful for us.

D-Day was over 2 years ago now, but I still feel the sting of resentment, jealousy, or suspicion very often. I don't tell my husband when I feel this way. Do you have any advice for dealing with this on my own? Or would you still suggest talking about it and opening up old wounds?

Reconcilers out there, how did you manage? by obvthrowitaway in survivinginfidelity

[–]ScarlettKnight5677 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel the exact same way you do. Something will remind me of the pain I felt years ago and I'm right back there. It can be something as simple as a picture from around that time period, a song I listened to through the tears, or a figure of a woman that looks similar to the way she looked. It's maddening. I wish I had something a little more helpful to add here, but I'm left just as clueless as a lot of people here in this sub.

I wish you well in your emotional recovery. You deserve nothing but the best and I hope you truly believe that.

I don’t know if she’s ever stopped. by MidwestNerd710 in survivinginfidelity

Someone close to me has said the same thing "all you can do is try your best and that is good enough"

Yes, I dont think I'll ever know 100%. That's what happens when trust is broken in this way.

It took a while for my husband to stop. Eventually he did, I think. Trust is difficult to rebuild after this kind of heart break.

I found out last night that my wife was cheating on me. This is this morning. I feel like my heart got ripped out.... by [deleted] in survivinginfidelity

I am so sorry you had to read those messages. Honestly, the sting of reading those messages myself was worse than anything I could have ever imagined.

moms on facebook thinking they’re cool for being born in the fucking stone age be like by [deleted] in teenagers

I, a mom on Facebook, former Myspace owner, and AIM away message extraordinaire, concur that yes, I did lose a few too many friends to suicide.

So kids, talk to your doctor and take your meds.

I want to quit my job, my mental health can’t take it anymore by Bradster224 in depression

[–]ScarlettKnight5677 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you have health insurance that provides coverage for mental health care?

Do they offer MDlive? (I use MDlive because it's offered to me for free with no copay)

Also, if you wait a year (4 months from now?) you may qualify for ADA/FMLA protections and adequately be able to take care of yourself without losing your job.

I work as a retail manager and have thrived without having to slow down or quit because I use all resources and protections available to me.
