Hello SI tribe.
I thought I would post to celebrate the fact I am still alive and infidelity free.
I lived to tell my infidelity story and am writing a new story of my life.
I worked really really hard on myself and I am healing.
I regret every minute I stayed with my cheating lying husband after I found out he "loved" some woman other than me. Every minute post me finding out he lied to me.
But you know what? I am forgiving myself for that pretty well too.
I laugh now. I have beautiful things in my life. I am enjoying learning how to better give and receive love.
I take showers most days now (unlike right after the infidelity). And I no longer give one iota about what THE EX or any of his co abusers in the "groups" he participated in on the internet or friends or family or anyone else but me thinks of me or my decision to say "no more".
I tell my story to people, and I am looking into possible opportunities to tell my story publicly because you never know... It might save the next person.
If you are reading this...you can survive infidelity too. I did.
I have a better life than I ever thought possible and my body is healing.
((Hugs)) to all on this journey.
