    My ex didn’t say I was judgemental. She said I “wasn’t there for her”. Still no idea what the fuck that meant, because I drove 11 hours twice a month to go and see her, paid her bills, video called her every day, and thought I did a pretty good job of showing her love.

    She also cheated on me the week before my 21st birthday party and then invited the guy she cheated on me with to my party. I even knew the guy and was semi-friends with them.

    In retrospect, I’m glad she showed her hand before marriage, because then I’d have been extra fucked. Dodged a building-sized bullet and am much happier now.

        That’s the weird thing…when I went to break up with her, she told me she still wanted to get married and how she had planned to never tell me she cheated, just pretending it never happened.

        I’m pretty sure it was just that I was financially stable and supporting her, while her side piece was broke. Which is nuts because I was in uni and didn’t have a lot.

          it’s super common man. many people have no morality, they just seek to exploit and use other people for their own gain.

          I have been on the flip side. Several women at work hit on me and went out with me, only for me to find out they had a husband/boyfriend they lived with. They wanted me to bang them and have fun with them while their less attractive boyfriend at home paid their bills for them. One of these women actually married the guy, with a big FAT engagement ring on her finger. Poor dude. I met him once at work, he was not a good looking guy, but he bought her nice things and she liked that.

          I think cheating is fucking gross, so yeah I never saw them again and basically didn’t talk to them at work anymore. In their mind, I was the asshole, because they just wanted to have fun with me, and I didn’t play along.
