Three weeks ago, this 28-year-old woman’s 29-year-old boyfriend went out of town to attend a conference for work.

Sadly, he just admitted to her that on his trip, he slept with one of his coworkers. After he got back, he was acting strange, and she guessed something was going on with him.

However, never in her wildest dreams would she have anticipated that her boyfriend cheated on her.

She didn’t think he was capable of doing such a heartbreaking thing, and she says their relationship is so happy.

They have lived with one another for two years, and this Friday, they’re supposed to sign a new lease on a place.

“As soon as he told me, I broke up with him and told him I’m done,” she explained. “But after talking to him at length last night, he claims that it was a one-time thing and will never happen again.”

Her boyfriend said that if she does want to still be with him, he will do a number of things to make everything better.

He offered to go to therapy in order to work on his issues, and he said he would stop drinking, as apparently that was involved in his cheating.

He also said they could try couples therapy as well in an effort to fix things between them. While that’s all well and good, she’s not sure if that’s enough.

“I just don’t know if I can ever get over this betrayal,” she said. “I can’t even look at him without picturing him and his coworker together. It makes me sick to my stomach.”

“The worst part is that he has to continue working with her every day and can’t cut all communication with her.”

“I keep running over scenarios in my head, trying to understand how he could throw away our entire future together for a moment of pleasure. I genuinely thought I was going to marry this man… if you were in my shoes, what would you do?”
