5 years just like that
I (24F) was just told that my partner (26M) has been cheating on me for some time. One of his ‘flings’(?) said they left it on bad terms around May and she confirmed that there were/are others.
My heart feels like it’s struggling to beat. I feel like it’s happening to someone else.
It’s not the first time I’ve been cheated on but I thought it would be the last and that I’d found a good thing.
The worst part is I feel so embarrassed. He’s met my family. I’m sure his friends knew, his neighbors knew (I was over at his all the time). And now I’m almost the last to know.
I can say he was good at hiding it. I had NO idea. None at all. He was caring, attentive, loving and all those good things.
I know I’m still young and all that but it doesn’t make it hurt any less. I may leave, I may not. I can’t express the hurt to my friends because I’m just not like that so strangers are easier.
I’m not looking for any advice, just hoping to feel a little lighter and I do. At least I can make it to work tomorrow.
