Man, you can bet your ass had this been a policy here I would have signed the fuck up for me and my cheating bitch of an ex wife.
6 months of hard labor sounds terrible, but to make her go through it too would put a smile on my face.
Where's the vote option for "good point but what the hell bro, get therapy"
Man I've been doin the therapy part. Discovering the images of another dudes dick with the naked photos of your wife she sent does something really fucked up to the brain.
Really fucked up. I mean I'm a lot better than I was, but shit dude, it... Fucks you up. A year and a half since that discovery, 5 years since she had the affair. At my current state I'm ok being single, because I don't ever want to go through anything remotely so painful again
Same boat. It was December 13, 2023 that I found out. Still waiting for the anger and hurt and deadness to stop.
I don't think it will stop. It hasn't for me. But it has gotten easier. Reaching the realization that I was infatuated with an idea of her, rather than who she really was, has helped.
Her mom had an affair when she was a kid and her parents divorced. She never forgave her mom, or so I thought. She swore up and down she'd never be like that. She clearly lied about her own principles.
Many hugs, friend. For what it's worth, I hope you're wrong and that it will stop someday. We've both still got a lot of living to do, and maybe even still some love buried deep in our black hearts.
I hope I'm wrong too. Best of luck friend
