“Back when I was in my mid-20s, I made some dumb decisions with this girl. She was beautiful, which probably influenced my decisions. I was ‘the other guy’ for a bit, and her fiancé at the time would drive her 30 minutes from college to drop her off at my house at 9 p.m. for the night. I can’t believe he was that trusting of her. I’d drop her off at her apartment on my way to work. Eventually, they broke off their relationship. However, I think she was still sleeping with him after the breakup.”
“I decided to keep the sex going with her. I proposed to her, and the next thing I knew, we were engaged. She moved in with me, and after graduating from college, had some job interviews. After one of the interviews, I caught her texting some guy a lot, and she accidentally left her messenger app open at the time on her computer, where I could clearly see them chatting about a sexual experience they had and how they were planning another. I broke off the engagement, kicked her out of my house, where she ran to that guy’s place and started living with him.
I later found out that it didn’t last long. She eventually cheated on him again and got married to someone else with money. That didn’t last long as she cheated on him, too. So I guess once a cheater, always a cheater.”
