  2. Be respectful to others, even if they're the subject of your rant. Realize that you can be angry at someone without denigrating them.
  3. Keep it on Topic. Memes about ranting are allowed for now, but will be banned if they start to become more prevalent than actual rants.

One year since I discovered my partner's infidelity (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

I was with a man for four years and thought we were going to get married. He was a widower and I fell in love for the first time. When I found out he was cheating, it killed me. I felt my whole self die.

I miss myself. I wake up every day and go through the motions, even try to date here and there, but at the end of the day I am a soulless husk of a person. I've tried focusing on myself - losing weight, exercising, rejuvenating old hobbies, lots and lots of therapy and meds. Nothing helps. At this point I'm only living because I have three pets who rely on me.

I still don't understand why I deserved that. I guess this is just as good as life gets for someone like me.

I wholeheartedly disagree, no one deserves to be cheated on and that's his choice and his fault🖕.

Everyone including you deserves to be treated with more kindness and empathy🌻

I have hope that you'll find someone better than your ex as even in the conservative province that I live in is still full of emotionally supportive and trustworthy people🌸🍀
