People can often tell when something’s wrong with their loved ones. If someone starts doing unexpected romantic things, it can make you suspicious. This happened to a Reddit user who figured out her husband’s strange behavior, left him, but then had doubts.
Here’s her story.
I’m 25 and my husband is 30. He started acting weird, staying out late, leaving early, and giving me expensive gifts for no reason. I realized he was cheating.
I didn’t want to spy on him, so I waited for him to come home and asked if he was cheating. He admitted it, apologized, and said it wouldn’t happen again.
But I couldn’t trust him anymore. Without trust, a relationship can’t work, so I packed my things. He begged me to stay, but I left.
That was three days ago. Since then, he’s been sending me lots of messages, asking how I could leave without trying to fix things, saying every couple has hard times.
I’m really conflicted. He was my first love, and I still have feelings for him. But he broke my trust, and I don’t think he can earn it back.
People in the comments assure her that she has made the right decision.
- Ask him this. How could he cheat without “even trying to fix things”? If he “ever loved” you, he wouldn’t have cheated. “Every couple goes through hard times”…yet somehow you managed to stay faithful.
- You don’t owe him anything anymore; he broke your trust, the “sacred” vow. If you feel it’s over, and you can’t trust him, then that’s how it is. Focus on yourself.
- Simply ask him, “Why should I fight for a cheater?” He disqualified himself the second he decided to sleep with another woman. There’s nothing to fight for. He made sure of that. Block him and have your peace, girl.
