He Cheated

Are we really surprised? For the last 9 months of our relationship. And she knew he had a girlfriend. So, we have two cheaters together who will never have a moment's peace, because they'll always be wondering when the other person will do TO them what was done WITH them.

I was hurt, then sad, then angry. Now, I'm over it. All in the span of less than 24 hours. How did I do that? I'm sure being broken up for 6 months already when I found out helped. But what really helps is the fact that, as Kellie Pickler puts it, "he's already had the best days of his life." With me. But I have not yet had the best days of mine.

I don't hate him, I don't pity him, I don't ANYTHING him. He has to live with what he did. All of that is on him. Kinda sad, really. I have amazing friends, great family, a good job and lots of prospects. He has maybe 1 friend who knows the real story, and he has to pretend to everyone else. I can hold my head up high and look people in the eye. I'm not ashamed for people to know who I am and what I've done.

Gaelic Storm says, "She was the prize." And I was. He lost that prize. Lucky for the next guy.

Why don't cheaters ever figure this out?

How do you know she knew?

Queen - Cheaters are always looking for the next best thing, and it's only after they've moved on that they realize they haven't moved up.

Anon - He told me she knew and gave me some specifics. The funny thing is that she's upset that he still talks to me (well, up to the point that I found out about the cheating). Hmm...wonder what she's worried about? Maybe that he'll do the same thing to her that he did to me?

Correction: She didn't know. I've spoken to her. And she's actually a lovely person. One more lie he told. He didn't think he'd get found out. But we're both smarter than him. She wasn't a cheater - he was.
