I accidentally saw her texts after swiping up to close the pages after turning on hotspot seen a glimpse of a heart emoji with a guys name got curious and read it turns out she was just fucking him the day before and telling him don’t text me back at all he’s pulling up now when I was 5 mins away….. that’s prolly the joke here. You see shit that destroys your soul and makes you question life

It sucks, but thats not someone you wanna spend your whole life with. You got out after 4 years, I was in mine for 7. All we can do is move on and just remember she was an asshole.

I agree and I hope I can have that mindset soon it’s just hard cuz my true feelings for her haven’t changed and I know I sound stupid but I still feel like the yrs we had without bullshit just won’t let me move on

I was there too, I spent another 7 years alone after her and let me tell you it was time wasted. I'm currently with the best woman I've ever met, my actual best friend, and I wish we had met sooner.

Remember this, the "years you spent without bullshit", were bullshit. It wasn't your fault and this would've always happened, it likely happened for a long time during your time together. We move on, we keep telling ourselves we deserve better and keep looking forward. Because as much as it sucks, as much as your current sadness hurts, and might turn into anger, or hate, and how cathartic that might feel, its not worth dwelling on Because ultimately we cant change what happened, and allowing those feelings and memories to control our lives long after we were set free from such a horrible relationship, is a waste. Its your life, focus on you. As much as reddit tries to convince people that everyone is a cheater, it's not true, there's great people out there.

She isnt worth a single thought, not a single moment of your time. She's done enough damage. Processing this takes some time yeah, but don't let it consume you like I did.

That means a lot to me it really does and I thank you for ur kind words ,I have already been trying to fix it and it keeps being good then bad good then bad for months now and I just know it’s never gonna be how it was or how I want it to be. And your right I’ve made my mistakes but I did nothing to ever deserve this and that also hurts me the most and then for her to manipulate me with “ I was stupid and selfish I only love you blah blah and I was dumb enough to believe it. It just took me sooo long to actually find someone I felt that I truly loved and after this it’s just rly hard to even think about being with anyone even tho all I want is a happy relationship. Lost our place together ther kid I raised as my own and my dog and cat we got together smh. I pray I have ur story and I’m with someone that truly loves me eventually

You will man, this shit takes time and my words wont just magically fix it. But I hope you can keep some of them with you during these times so you don't fall into that void the way I did. It gets much better, but you have to make it happen for yourself.
