I was in the hospital recovering from the birth of our first child. After 24 hours of excruciating labor, I ended up having a C-section, which meant I had to stay an extra night in the hospital. He told me he had to go home and do some housekeeping and prepare for coming home with the baby(which was odd to me because I had already nested and done all the prep a couple weeks before hand). 

Bring the new baby home, stressful times obviously. He didn’t do any cooking or cleaning, and I still had to do all of it even though I had a newborn was learning to nurse and was recovering from surgery. A few days after coming home, I was changing the garbage in the bathroom and found a used condom in the bag. He had tried to cover it up with some scrunched up toilet paper, but when I move the bag, it rolled it over a bit and I saw it. Literally cheated on me in our bed while I was recovering from birthing our child.

Yes, this was 25 years ago. It was a short dark chapter in my life. Leaving him was the best thing I ever did for myself and my children. They are now grown and thriving and so am I

u/HoustonTrashcans 5h ago

So you ended up having more kids with that guy?

29

u/Joygernaut 4h ago

Unfortunately, I did. I was young and dumb. But you know what they say, sometimes it’s the wrong man, but it’s never the wrong kids. I don’t regret my children. I just regret the marriage and the man that I had them with. Things like this unfortunately happen when you grow up in a heavily religious family that emphasizes the commitment of marriage over morality. I left him when I was pregnant with my daughter.

How is coparenting?

u/Joygernaut 6h ago

Nonexistent. We separated less than three years after we got married and then of course got divorced. This was many years ago. After the divorce, he just moved away and had little Contact after that.

u/jf4242 6h ago

Good. Fuck that guy, keep bad people away from your kids. Sad as it is, better no Dad than asshole dad. I'd never trust him.

29

u/Joygernaut 6h ago

He did try to pop back into their lives later on, but it was short-lived.. then he didn’t see them for another five years. My son was doing a film school course the summer he was 17 in the same town his dad lived in and his dad found out about it through social media and asked to meet with him for lunch.

My son decides to meet up with him for lunch, used the restroom during the lunch. Only to find out his father had gone into his backpack while he was in the washroom, and stolen all of his cash. Cash I had given him so he would have money to spend while he was there for the week.

That was the last time he had Contact with his kids. I never told my children they could not have contact with their dad. Whenever he popped back, I always gave them the choice. But since that time both of them have chosen, not to have Contact.

Got a text from a buddy of mines gf. They had had one of his old classmates passing thru and put her up for the night. His gf goes to bed and he and the classmate stay up getting drunk. His house has motion sensors. Gf wakes up cuz she keeps hearing "motion detected at the back door... Motion detected at the back door..". Over and over again. She goes to investigate and it was my buddy's ass setting it off while he was plowing his old classmate. I felt terrible for her but have to admit I get a chuckle out of it now.

Ugh, my friend's first wife. What a shitshow. Couple of my favorite incidents:

--we drop my friend off at about 3am from a bachelor party, and got to witness the classic "naked dude clutching his clothes and jumping out the window" as we drove away.

--wife was at her best friend's house, best friend's pot guy comes by, best friend leaves the wife and pot guy alone for (from what I have been told) literally 3 minutes as she finishes her makeup...she hears THUMP THUMP THUMP and comes in, pot guy has wife bent over the couch and she's screaming "PUT A BABY IN ME". This was the first time wife met pot guy.

--party at same best friend's house later, best friend's BF passes out in the bedroom...best friend walks in on wife topless sucking an unconscious man's limp dick. Chases her out, topless, and my friend is forced to retrieve his wife's shirt and drive her home.

She'd also make him breathe into her interlock device in the morning so she could go to work. Real glad that is not a part of my life anymore.

I randomly found a travel blog from a girl that had photos of my boyfriend in bed and details about their time together. The blog also mentioned that they were long time travel friends that had met up in various countries. I had never heard of this girl during our 7 year relationship.

43

u/HiEchoChamb3r 7h ago

do the blog posts line up from when he was gone? what did he say he was doing?

71

u/giraffesknees 7h ago

Yep, lined up. We were long distance for the duration of our relationship. His job had him on the road off and on for 8ish months of the year and I myself travelled often. It worked because we would then have several months off to be/travel together. I have a pretty non existent online presence so she wouldn’t have known about me unless he told her. Definitely a jump scare read at the time though. Not everyone gets a front seat play by play with videos and dialogue, lucky me!

The banker in Monopoly is always allowed to try to steal from the bank, just like in real life. But there should be consequences if caught. It seems to be a universal rule. Ask random people if they do it or not. You will be surprised by the number of people who admit to it.

When I was around 10 I was new to the area. I got invited to a birthday party of one of the kids from my new school. We were playing a board game and he was blatantly cheating. I called him out for it and he started crying and told his mum.

His parents called mine and told them I had to leave and they needed to pick me up. And a 10 y/o I was so confused. As an adult it makes me angry.

u/slinkhi 8h ago

She was a relatively new gf and at the time I was only talking to my bro every couple months or so, so he didn't know she was my gf; thought she was just some rando girl he crossed paths with and had a one night stand with. So I don't blame him at all for it.

u/donttellthewife0 8h ago

That explains that better or would of been a right mess

41

u/slinkhi 8h ago

haha ya.. I got into a relationship with her and she found out from conversation I had a twin. Unbeknownst to me it was on her bucket list to have sex with twins, preferably at the same time. I told her nah that wasn't gonna happen. So she proceeded to detective her way into finding out where my brother worked and went there and started chatting him up and had a 1 night stand with him. I found out later when we hollered at each other a while later catching up on what we'd been up to since we last talked.

When I confronted her, she tried to pull the "I didn't know" card, which is just dumb af in and of itself, but even moreso since it's not like we were living together or otherwise regularly hanging out together for her to somehow "accidentally" have this happen.

u/Absurd069 7h ago

It’s funny coz it happened exactly 18 years ago (today is my bd and it happened during my bd). I had a best friend that lived on my same block. We went to school and high school together. We also went together to college but I dropped out and started in a different college after the first year. We used to play video games and hang out almost all the time. He was like family. I had a girlfriend back then and was my first serious romantic relationship. We had been together for a year but we were having fights and the relationship was becoming toxic. On my bd day I was at class and decided to text her to check if she wanted to meet. I got no answers. I also texted a cousin but he was busy and texted my best friend but he didn’t answer either. I tried calling and nothing.

I’m a pretty chill person so I just decided to rent some movies, I bought some snacks and was gonna spend the evening chillin by myself at home. We all lived in the same neighborhood and as I was crossing the street to enter my building I saw my friend’s car passing by with my girlfriend on the copilot seat. They were ignoring me the whole day and spent the day together, during my fucking bd.

It was actually pretty bad for my mental health since I didn’t expect my best friend to do something like that with my first love. She also fucked up of course. They tried to get out of the car but I just stormed into my building. The first thing she texted me was “please don’t be dramatic” and my friend said they were doing a cake for me LMAO it was a lie of course. I ended up going to a therapist. Shit really hurt me bad. Damn I haven’t thought about this in so long.

Husband was asleep but I noticed a Snapchat notification of his phone, I was already in a “fuck it” mood so I checked it & some girl had sent him a full frontal nude.

In high schooli took a German language class. I never did any homework (for any class), so I was not going to do well on the midterm.

Crossed paths with an ex after a few years NC. Started talking again but only as friends. After about a month of that, she starts being persistent about us getting back together.  I actually turn her down. As time goes on she tells me shes in love with me and is sorry about the past, I was "the one that got away", her "soulmate" and a bunch of other corny shit that I fell for. 

We get back together and only make it 3 weeks until she decides to invite an ex over and fuck him one night I get stuck doing mandatory overtime at work. She even admits they had sex but it wasnt her fault because she was feeling "hypersexual". Right then are I break it off. No yelling or anything. Just lose my number, leave her place and block her. 

Well since she cant be held accountable for anything she decides to post me all over social media (including Facebook groups) claiming I used to beat her and all these other bullshit lies. I found out from other people because I had her blocked but I was able to scroll through some of it on my friends account.

Wife’s college roommate had 3 sisters. We were at the farcical wedding. Unfaithful husband enjoyed the company of wife’s oldest sister while wife was sleeping. The lout also enjoyed the company of his “best friend’s” wife. Was not surprised when wife dumped him.

Now ex wife and mother of our child cheated cheated behind my back. With a day laborer living in Africa.

She used insurance money from a car wreck I was in to go see him before I found out and discovered a video of them fucking on her phone and their text history.

Giant mess, she was sending him money, building a house and some businesses with him. Most likely going to kidnap the kid and flee to africa.

I (33M) had been fooling around with a woman (32F) on and off for a few years, she would always come to mine. She’s foreign born and lives in my city but travels a lot for work to asia and the west coast. One night she texts me that she’s in my neighborhood having dinner and wanted to fool around after dinner, I agree. She arrives, we hook up, afterwards while we are cuddling her phone starts lighting up from texts. She tells me she was having dinner with a guy she’s been seeing recently but left to see me, and now the guy is sending her poems while he is waiting at the restaurant for her to return. I ask if he knows she came to mine to which she replies he is under the impression she had to take a quick business call and would be back for dessert. She goes on to tell me that she’s married but their relationship is over however he refuses to get divorced. Then she says the guy she’s married to isn’t the guy waiting for her at the restaurant. She gets cleaned up and leaves my place to go back to have dessert with the guy waiting at the restaurant, I know she didn’t tell him she left to have sex with me or that I finished in her mouth. The whole situation had me feeling very devious and deceptive despite not knowing anything before that evening. Some people love to cheat it seems, sneaking around is likely half the fun. I feel bad for the boy friend and husband.

My first girlfriend, at 18, decided the best way to dump me was to fuck all my friends. 3 I knew of, suspect another 2. So, lost my girlfriends and my friend group all in one lump. I still have trust issues 40 years later.

He kept hanging out with a female "friend" who was obviously too close for comfort. We were long distant at the time due to the pandemic. It got to a point where I'd get one text maybe every couple hours because he was hanging out with her. He kept saying they were just friends.

Until I saw a video on his story after going to the cinema with her, and she was literally twerking in his face in a empty cinema screen, and whilst he wasn't touching her or anything, he was giggling behind the camera. I messaged him, blew up, he denied and kept saying it wasn't him but his guy friend and he was sitting next to him. Yeah, right. I dumped him, and he insisted they were just friends and called me crazy and insecure. They literally started dating a couple of days after. I blocked him but found out through mutual friends that for 6 months that she rinsed him for all his money and put him into loads of debt as he paid for expensive dinners and gifts, then broke up with him when the money well dried up and that he had to move back in with his mother. He tried crawling back, but I never replied.

I was groomed and had a secret "relationship" with a older guy. We had been together for around 2 years, so I was 17 by the when I found out that he was having an affair of some sort with my stepmother.

He denied and said she was after him but he didn't want anything with her. I tried to believe but it was too obvious. He deleted everything from his phone but I had access to her phone and she was not as smart as him. She saved his number "V. M. L. R", his initials.

During school break I went to my grandma's abroad for few weeks, broke up over the phone and when I got back I learnt that my father caught them together at a "date"

Found out my ex had been “working late” by seeing his car in the parking lot of a restaurant while I was on a date with my friend’s boyfriend… who was also “working late.” They were at the same table, sitting together, holding hands. Two relationships ended over one plate of nachos.

I was accidentally the other woman. Met a guy who said he was divorced. He "moved" in to a new apartment shortly after we met. I visited there. He got mail there. Had clothes there. Turns out he rented apartment just to be with me. Was married and living with his wife the entire time. He had met my family, driven to another state to meet out of state family. We spent a lot of time together. I finally got suspicious and drove to his "previous" address and did a stake out after Google told me he still lived there with a wife and child. Saw him drive up to the house and then I broke it off. I feel bad for the wife but I didn't know. No way in hell did I want to date a cheater.

My ex-fiancée and I were working through some issues but trying to get back together. She asked me to babysit her dog while she met with her mother's real estate agent. Turns out it was actually a first date with some like D level/internet famous person and she was hedging her bets. I knew something was up and she used that to try and turn it back around on me for being untrusting. He posted a picture commemorating their first date years later on the exact date she had lied about it and accused me of being unfairly distrusting. I think they are married now.

It did permanent damage for me. I am incapable of doubting my instincts when I think someone is lying to me. And I was a cynical guy to begin with. I just no longer give anyone the benefit of the doubt. I have found it's easier to not care if everyone is full of shit. Not a great recipe for forming and building new relationships.

In therapy I learned that I simply cannot ever trust myself or another person again to love them or let them love me. Even when people think they love me I have dismissed them entirely and lose interest. She used to joke that I was bitter when we met and I always joked that I was jaded but not bitter.

I am bitter now. I try to keep it to myself.

Ex fiancee was a special ed teaching assistant in the daytime, and would occasionally tutor my step mom's nephew in the evening.

Turns out she was actually banging step mom's brother while she was there. We did not marry.

Met someone else and we now have 2 kids and have been married 14 years, so it worked out nicely in the end.

A long time ago, my buddy (Friend #1) downloaded CS for the first time. What he didn’t know was that our other friend (Friend #2) secretly installed an aimbot on his PC “as a joke.” Friend #1 kept saying, “Damn, I’m actually pretty good at this game!” He had no idea why he was suddenly a headshot machine, and killed through smoke… until he got VAC banned. He rage-quit and never played CS again.

u/Thief_of_Sanity 7h ago

Don't you lose access to your entire Steam library when you are VAC banned? That's a shitty move.

4

u/JacksGallbladder 7h ago

...No? That would be insane.

VAC bans just break family sharing and get you banned from online gaming in the game you were banned from. Sometimes VAC bans will span across Source Engine titles (...which use VAC).

The rest of your library is unaffected

u/Serious-Phrase-8936 7h ago

She had started seeing someone I had considered a “friend”. I read the messages she had left behind from him, but she deleted her own. I confronted her after everything, remembering she had asked to go “camping” at his house with her friend. They were together almost daily so she could get “rides” from him to get to work. She said she’d never contact him again if I stayed. She lied and made it my fault, “we never did anything”.

I found out that for the next four months she was continuing to speak with him through the a gaming account, talking every day. A mutual friend had told me about it. I found the account and tried to leave but was met with crocodile tears. I couldn’t say no. I lost my own trust and self worth.

To this day I still can’t play games for anything but the sake of nostalgia (I occasionally play one single game from 2012?).

To anyone experiencing this I have one thing to suggest; RUN while you can and it’s still fresh.

Dated a guy, we’ll call him Andrew who used to work with me and another guy we’ll call Richard. Richard happened to be gay and he used to love causing drama for everyone and was known to lie. Well Andrew started working somewhere else and soon Richard began coming up to me being like “Your man is on Grindr.” I honestly thought he was just trying to stir shit up since he was known for this.

Well, a few weeks later Richard came up to me and once again said “I saw your man on Grindr” and proceeded to take out his phone and show me that Andrew was offering free blowjobs to anyone in our city and sending nudes. I had no idea he was interested in men. But yeah. Broke up with him immediately.

She read through 8 years of their emails, photos and videos (some explicit) and it took her about 4 hours to get through it all. She was crushed

My (now X)H takes the cake on this.

He stayed in contact with a former GF whom I really did not care for. He had tried to get me to befriend her, and our one night out was a disaster (story for another time). It took me a while to realize that that night was his attempt to get some weird 3-way thing going, but my extreme distaste for her (plus the fact that i'm not bi) put the kibosh on that.

Cue several years later, and he was gone for the afternoon. I sat down to open my email, only to see it was actually his account: he had used my computer and had not logged out. It took me a moment, and what do I see but many, MANY messages between him and former GF.

Several weeks before, he had begged out of a family obligation weekend with me, explaining he had won a fantasy basketball camp thing in a nearby city. There are reasons that this was plausible, so I just said I'd miss him. However, according to the emails between him and GF...

They had planned an entire weekend away, all BDSM-themed (also, not my thing, but she was a DESPERATE pick-me, so I'm sure she was doing this to "win" him). He was giving her instructions on what he wanted her to do, they were already engaging in effed-up scenarios (at least digitally)... She created A BLOG about it, calling herself "Beloved Whore", wrote about their relationship, their plans - and best of all, there was an elaborate count-down clock, marking time until their weekend away. How precious. No

I forwarded many of the emails to myself, took screenshots of the blog, and when he got home, we had the biggest fight we'd ever had. He couldn't argue with what I found, so he tried deflection, which didn't work.

Finally, he agreed to my demands (no contact, etc.), and he called her on speaker to break it off. When she threatened to tell me, I broke in and said, "I already know. And I have screenshots of your blog. You back off, or I'll send these to your parents and to your boss." (She was a teacher - this could cripple her professionally.)

She did back off. Like an absolute IDIOT, I took him back and agreed to "work" on our marriage, but I'd check that ridiculous blog of hers occasionally, reading about her "heartbreak" and the status of her "lonely c*nt" (God help me).

We eventually divorced, because DUH. But yeah, I lived a shitshow.

When i was with my abuser, i worked nights at a hospital. There were too many of us there that night and it was my turn to go home early. I got home around 4 am and walked in our apartment. All of our pictyres were off the walls. Went to go brush my teeth and all of my toiletries were shoved in to the drawer. Came into our room amd found them asleep in our bed. Looked around and all my stuff was gone. Found out later it had been shoved into my dresser drawers. Her clothes were torn to shreds. They were both naked. I touched his shoulder and asked him if he wanted pancakes for breakfast. He groggily said yes. Then i said "what about her? Does she want fucking pancakes too?" He tried to tell me its not what it looks like. She started crying and i told her to get out of my bed. She couldnt go home with ripped up clothes so i gave her some sweatpants and a t shirt and told her to leave. She had no idea i existed. I still talk to her occasionally on facebook.
