The pillar of every relationship is trust, and when that’s broken everything else crumbles. While many people question if their significant other is cheating on them, it’s not often that they get the answers they need.
U/JeevesTheRunner: “We were living a few hours apart for a few months because of work. I was driving up every weekend to see her. She called me and told me that she had to go see her dad or something that weekend. I knew she had been super busy and stressed at work and she loved wild flowers.
I spent all day Sunday picking wild flowers, bought a vase, and drove up to the house she was renting, intending to drop them off on the porch so she’d see them when she got home that night. Her car was there. A sport bike was parked next to it.”
Friend’s Truth
U/danielstover: “Her best friend called me and told me. She was very gentle about it, knew it would hurt a lot. Eased me into it, provided evidence, wished me a good evening.
Side Email
U/apostate456: “I received an ‘anonymous’ email from someone who felt I ‘deserved to know’ that he was seeing someone else. The email included details about the relationship and several screenshots. 99% sure it was sent by his side chick who wanted a promotion to main chick.
I gracefully gave her the promotion and he found a replacement for her old position shortly thereafter.”
Broken Trust
U/Oilers-Billdozer23: “She was playing Fallout: New Vegas and asked me to read the text message that came through on her phone. It said ‘had a great time today 😉 make sure to let me know the next time your bf isn’t home.’
Really helped solidify my decision not to propose. She never came clean but he eventually messaged me to let me know how long it had been going on for 1.5 years.”
Deceit Unveiled
I decided to go to a friends house to see if he would help me find her… and I found them both. She had been cheating on me for months, despite my proposal and engagement ring. Was the beginning of a dark time in my life. Thankfully things have changed.
Long Hours
U/Humble_virgo84: “Things were great for about a year…Then he started working ‘long hours’ around the same time I saw a person named ANNA pop up on his phone. I stored my number under ‘ANNA’ in his phone and deleted myself. I then messaged him as her telling him to come over. I followed him to her house.
Dash Cam Deception
U/AT0MLFRS: “Found flirty messages on her snap chat, a few days later came home from a concert, she wasn’t home, looked at her dash cam and saw it was purposely unplugged the night she left the house when I was at said concert. Finally drug it out of her. I broke down, she tried to comfort me I told her to leave.
Found phone number on phone bill, reverse num lookup, used name to get address on been verified, drove over next morning to find her car there. Total a– situation.”
Father Figure
He insisted he was not the father and encouraged them to conduct any necessary tests to prove it. After the tests were done, they informed him that he was correct – the child was not his. Shockingly, the doctor also revealed that his four children did not belong to him either—he was infertile. It wasn’t until that moment that he realized his wife had been having an affair for the duration of their marriage and each of her pregnancies had been from the other guy.”
Always a Cheater
U/NMe84: “She told me the day after, in tears. It was rough, but I forgave her. A week later she did the exact same thing. This was even rougher, but I had zero self esteem and forgave her again.
A week or two later she dumped me because she ‘found out’ I had a study debt, which was never a secret and she definitely knew about. She did me a favor though, that was a very toxic relationship and even though I’ve been single for almost 20 years since then, I prefer that over the idea of having to spend any more time with her.”
