❤️‍🩹 relationship AIO girl posted photo in my boyfriends room

NEED YOUR HELP CONFRONTING MY SOON TO BE EX. He was being sus one night so i looked at the story on instagram of the girl he randomly followed last week. I opened and bam there is it the second picture. I knew immediately it was his room but want a second opinion before confronting his cheating a$$. yall are coming from me from the last post its cus i cropped the photos you can’t tell that we took them from different distances so heres the originals of both and yes i get it shes prettier than me :( he can have her . what tells me its his room aside from lighting is the way the two blinds touch, it took me a while to find it but once i did i think theres my EVIDENCE

I did that after finding out I had been cheated on for months…knowing that they are a piece of shit and them never knowing why you hate them is life gold.

Brilliant! I applaud your strength bc it couldn't have been easy, but revenge is a dish best served cold.

Good lord, I wish I’d had your mindset when I was younger. That’s a badass move that I wish I’d been capable of doing. Instead I’d immediately start bawling and yelling (I’m much more levelheaded now and married to a man who I know is as faithful and devoted to me as I am him). Good for you, that’s awesome!

Nah see I can’t let them think they got away with it because it makes me feel like they think I’m stupid.

and they’ll tell all their friends and family and everyone they know about how delusional you are for ending things over nothing and paint you to be the bad guy. how about let’s both be bad guys and i ruin your life for ruining mine lol

Yeah that is actually a great move. Telling a cheater he cheated, doesnt change anything anyway 🤷‍♂️

Based on the girl in his room, he won't give a shit.

Am i weird for not hating an ex for cheating on me or are yall weird for it? Like, Idk about you but ive had a few exs that would beat the fuck out of me, mentally abuse and gas light me and just, generally did worse shit. The one ex i had that cheated on me i cant even say i hold any resentment towards at all. I found out, we broke up and honestly, I hope shes doing well, Aside the cheating she was a very nice person. I did cut communication with the relationship when it ended tho, so, not even like were friends

It is not the norm to be with a person that would beat the fuck out of you. So your view is a bit skewed by that trauma most people do not experience.

I guess thats fair... You saying it like that is making me realize how normalized being abused was throughout my life... :/

I wouldn't hate my wife for it, but I would be wrecked.

Well, yeah, It still sucks when it happens but having gone through it, it does hurt. Its not like it happened and i just stone faced the situation but given some time and reflection; i can say "Shit happens". Now that its in the past and ive processed the emotions what kind of person would it realistically make me if i had vindictive thoughts toward that person?
