Being cheated on hurts. So. Bad.
The way I loved before, I know I’ll never be able to get back to that point ever again.
My sense of self worth has gone down, I now question my trust in my own intuition, and my hurt feels like a pain I’ve never felt before.
“I’m so glad I never have to worry about him.”
Something I used to always tell my mom and friends.
I always thought his love for me would overpower his desire for other women. I was so wrong.
I felt stupid. I felt played.
I’d had opportunities to do him as ***** (if not dirtier) than he did me. I didn’t partake in those opportunities because I felt like our love was so pure and I didn’t want to be the one to ruin something so beautiful.
I was wrong.
I felt embarrassed. I felt ashamed.
While I was sick, I thought he was being true to me. I fantasized about having his kids upon healing. I thought our love grew stronger because he was there for me at my lowest.
I was wrong.
Instead, he was spending time and money - something we both felt we had such little of- on someone else.
I feel hurt. I feel unsafe.
I don’t trust the same way I used to. I don’t look at him the same way I used to. I don’t have “forever” hopes like I used to.
Hopefully someday I’ll heal.
But for now, my heart hurts.
I’ll never be the same.
