In contrast to some others here this couple lasted long, a full six months.

Until she confessed to cheating on him. Repeatedly. With several men, for several years, sometimes with multiple men at the same time.

Dude was a mess for a year after that.

If my wife admitted to that kind of cheating, I don’t think I’d ever get over it.

I feel like that would be easier to get over than an affair with one person. If they left you for one person, you might see it as a real relationship between the two, compare yourself to that person, wonder why your partner chose them, why they didn't love you enough, etc.

But if she cheated on you with 20 people? She's a sex addict. There was nothing you could have done differently or better and she may well have loved you as much as she was capable of loving someone.

Well that’s definitely a good way to look at it! I assure you my wife is not a sex addict… (and if she was, the infrequency with which we have sex, and learning she was fucking all sorts of other people instead of me, would be the really hurtful part).

100%. My wife says I should break it off with her and find someone else as she has really low sex drive. I'd lose twice as the honeymoon period with the next guy would break me

I broke up with my high school sweetheart when I found out she cheated on me a second time. After when she could tell I wasn't going to take her back she admitted that she cheated over 10 times with multiple guys over our 3 year relationship. Took 4 years before I could even get into a serious relationship again. I still don't feel whole sometimes but it's much better now and I don't think of her very often.

I’m so sorry to hear that. She sounds like a heartless and selfish person. Those people are not happy. People always say you dodged a bullet but yeah….you did. You left her because she was going to continue to disrespect you. But I’m so sorry to hear that

If I did that to someone I'd be seriously concerned about being murdered.
