[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]The most glamorous beautiful women in the world get cheated on.

It has everything to do with the cheater and nothing to do with you.

You are not alone. [/b]

I have been in the mind movies. I think it’s the brain in shock trying to make sense of things.

Medication and therapy helped. Friends helped. Dark humor. Connecting with people who “get” it. If you haven’t lived it you don’t truly understand. [/quote]

This. It truly isn’t you. It isn’t something you did or didn’t do. Trust me- you can be literally perfect (hot, great mom, make great $, have regular sex, etc) and 10, 15, 20 years in some spouses will still cheat on you.

It truly is a defect in them, not you.

Time cures it. Sadly it was around the 5th year mark for me—but movies/books/shows with adultery no longer trigger me like they used to—very badly and I’d spiral.

I mean look at the well-known serial cheaters like Tiger, Lamar Odom, Shakira’s ex, Ben Affleck,  Amy Robach/Holmes, Sandra Bullock’s ex (Jesse James), Woody Allen, Jay-Z, Hugh (Elizabeth Hurley’s ex),. etc they have serious issues—addiction (booze or drugs), mental, family trauma.[/quote]
