“I was sad, I was angry, I was being emotionally and physically abused in my relationship. I wanted comfort. I was in the middle of nowhere and couldn’t really escape. Definitely not my proudest moment, and even though my ex was an abusive bastard, I don’t think he deserved that. 10/10 would never cheat again. Even though there were reasons that some people might deem understandable, in my eyes I still cheated and it was wrong.”

“I was tired of being treated like crap but had low enough self-esteem to not get out of a bad relationship.
Five years of him cheating on me, us breaking up, only to start a relationship again. Eventually we got engaged, and from the beginning I had reservations about it/him but we were together for so long it almost felt like I had to because that’s what you do after years together.
Throughout the relationship different girls would contact me about how he was cheating on me, or his stories just wouldn’t add up. But being 19-25 and dumb I believed all the bullshit he spit out.
Eventually I realized my worth. Unfortunately, I wasn’t smart enough to break up with him before having sex with someone else. Maybe it was partly a revenge thing, I’m not sure.
Luckily I broke up with him soon after because I found out the niece his sister-in-law had a year before (while we were still dating) was actually his daughter…”
