He Dumped His Fiancée When He Discovered She Cheated On Him Twice, But Two Years Later, He’s Still In Love With Her
Two years ago, this man unfortunately learned that his fiancée was cheating on him with one of her coworkers.
He was at home, making sure their infant son was well cared for, while his fiancée was out and about with her affair partner.
He did forgive her, and looking back now, he says it was not a smart move on his part. However, he really was thinking about what was best for their son when he did this.
“I knew it hurt, and I knew I would struggle to trust her, but I really thought we were strong enough to heal from it,” he explained.
“We moved on; she cut him off and promised me that it would never happen again. Fast forward a year later, she had a new job. She was meeting new people and making friends, which made me happy for her.”
“I was supportive and made sure she had the free time she needed from our son to be with her new friends and maintain a social life, even though this meant I didn’t have one at all. One day, she started staying overnight at her friend’s places. I didn’t think much of it, although the lack of communication about when she would return always put me on edge.”
It was extremely upsetting for him to go 14 hours without hearing from his fiancée at all. He then began to suspect that perhaps she was out cheating with him again.
He was able to go through her phone to search for answers, which is unlike him, but he didn’t know what else to do.
What he came across on his fiancée’s phone made him sick. His fiancée had tons of evidence on there of her with another man, spelling out her second affair.

“Pictures and videos of them, together, in nearly every square inch of our home, including my son’s room,” he said.
“In our kitchen, where we cooked together and ate each night. In our bed, on our couch, and even on our deck. It broke me…I sobbed every morning on the way to work and every evening on the way home.”
“I would sit in my car, unable to get out due to the crippling emptiness I felt inside. The only thing that ever pulled me somewhat back to reality was my son. He needed me now more than ever, and I struggled to leave him alone with his own mother. I was terrified that he could somehow end up hurt in all this mess.”
He did confront his fiancée by dropping her phone in front of her before walking away and simply stating they were done.
His fiancée called him up screaming and crying after he left, saying she knows everything is her fault.
He didn’t want to hear it. It pained him so much that he knew it was best to move on and leave her in his past.
Now, two years later, it’s easier said than done for him. He tries his best to be polite to her for his son’s benefit, but it kills him to do this.
“The worst part of it all is that I still love her,” he continued. “I mourn her loss as if she’s dead. I look at her and see the shell of the woman I once loved, but I know that inside, she has become something unfamiliar.”
“It kills me each time we speak. It kills me each time she laughs with our son. It kills me when I dream of a time before all of this pain.”
