28 Cheaters Who Really Made Sure To Twist The Knife After Stabbing Their Partners In The Back
"My dad cheated on my mom with my best friend's mom who was also married. I was a teenager at the time, and I unfortunately found out before my mom did. Guess who had to tell her? My dad told me I 'owed it to him' to not say anything. The massive amount of guilt I dealt with for 'outing' him and destroying my mom's life haunted me for years."
"I went to the wedding of my then-boyfriend's friend. Easily the best wedding I've ever been to — absolutely a smash. The bride was the lead singer in a band, and they performed and killed it. Just a great party all around. People had a great time, and the couple seemed so happy. The next day, I'm at brunch with the wedding party (sans married couple), and everyone's phone buzzes. The best man gets up and takes a call. The mood absolutely falls and everyone gets quiet. I ask my boyfriend what's going on. Apparently the bride had been cheating on the groom the entire relationship with the drummer in her band, who performed at the wedding. She told him that morning. Immediate divorce. We all sat there and one of the groomsmen said, 'We can never tell him how great his wedding was.'"
"My ex told me that he was hanging out with his cousin, who he'd reconnected with, a bunch. I found out he was cheating on me with her. He told me he had lied to me and that she was just a friend and not his cousin. As if that made it any better. Like, thankfully they aren't cousins, but yes, he still admitted to cheating on me. Turns out it WAS his cousin. He was cheating on me with his cousin. I was so disgusted and disturbed, I vomited all over the floor. And, my grandpa died the day I found out."
"One of my wife's cousins died of cancer after a 30-year marriage. When her husband was clearing out her home office, he found a box with diaries, receipts, letters, hotel keys, etc., all detailing the hundreds of times she'd cheated on him with random guys throughout their whole marriage. She'd gone so far as to take their daughters to meetups and gaslight them about what was happening."
"My boyfriend of seven years cheated on me while I was home saying goodbye to my dying dog and visiting my mom in the hospital. I was also in the thick of an accelerated nursing school program and it was finals week. ALSO, my car had just broken down in the drive-thru of a Whataburger that same weekend. The girl he cheated with? A very close friend who was getting married in a month. She begged me to not tell her fiancé (I told him)."
"My ex and I were together for eight years! She had been sleeping with her boss for the last year of our relationship. We were looking at getting a new place to rent. She was adamant that she wanted to live in this very specific block of flats. Turns out her boss lived downstairs from us. They were having sex right under my nose."
"I was an IT contractor for the Department of Defense. We got a keyword alert on an email conversation. Then more. Same folks involved. So, we went and checked out the email and the email thread. Turns out it was a senior chief who was talking to nearly half a dozen women under his chain of command, all of whom he was having affairs with, and multiples of which were pregnant with his children. He, of course, was married and had four kids with his wife. What started out as a 'Hey, you're not supposed to discuss that on regular email' investigation turned into a massive scandal that wrecked multiple marriages and turned into a whole lot of meetings with his VERY angry CO. Don't do stupid stuff on company email. And REALLY don't do stupid stuff on DOD servers."
"My best friend. He was madly in love with a woman and wanted to marry her. They lived together and were very happy. As a birthday gift, she bought him a plane ticket so he could fly out to see me. While he was with me, he would talk to her every so often. Every time he got off the phone with her, he would tell me something just wasn't right. His spidey senses were tingling. He came home to find evidence that she'd had someone over at their place. She initially denied it, but eventually she admitted to having a male coworker in the house. Her buying the ticket was just a way for her to have the place to herself for a three-day sex romp. My buddy was devastated and heartbroken. It took him years to recover."
"My bio mom's best friend was diagnosed with stage-four lung cancer. We moved her, her husband, and her daughter in with us. My mom slept with her friend's husband and got pregnant, so they put her friend in a nursing home to die all alone, just so they wouldn't have to deal with the consequences. She was hours away as well, so her daughter, who was 10 at the time, was unable to visit her. She died alone because she went to her 'best friend' for help. I don't speak to my bio mom anymore. After her friend's death, she showed off the brand new car she got with the life insurance money (she married the husband). At the time, her dead best friend also had a 19-year-old daughter who was homeless with a toddler. I felt so sick sitting in the car listening to my bio mom brag about how nice it was and how she finally got the car she deserved. Some people are disgusting."
"Former colleague of mine in his mid-30s. He was living with his long-term girlfriend and they had been shopping for engagement rings. He came to work one day, and early afternoon, he received a text from her telling him she was seeing someone else, has packed up the house, and moved out to live with the other guy. No apology and no further explanation. She then immediately blocked him and left him to deal with the rent and other bills on his own. He was a nice guy. It was horrendous to see that happen to him."
"I had a roommate in college who was a big cheater. He had a girlfriend from high school at another college, and she would come to visit on the weekend sometimes. He cheated on her all the time. One weekend, she came down to visit and he was not home. The rest of us had taken a taxi home from a bar, but he went home with a girl. His very cute girlfriend was wearing an overcoat, and it was obvious that she had driven a couple of hours from her college in special lingerie to come see him. He knew she was coming."
"I know someone who had a multi-decade affair with a married father of four. The guy would lie and say he was at the laundromat and would take his kids' laundry over to her house. The woman he was having the affair with would do his kids' laundry, but not even her own children's. The woman wanted him to leave his wife, but the guy wouldn't, so she married another dude and they ended up getting divorced because she would cheat on her husband with the other dude. The worst part is that her husband had suspicions she was cheating, but still went through with it. If you have any doubts, do not get married."
"My friend's husband hired a sex worker for $40 when my friend was a few weeks postpartum with their baby. He invited the sex worker over to their house while taking care of their baby and had sex in their bed. My friend found out later because he was missing from the school where they both worked, and she found out he had been arrested or detained or something (I forget exactly) because he had gone to the police to report that he was being blackmailed. The sex worker had started blackmailing him and he went to a loan shark to get $1,000 to pay her off. When she demanded more money, I guess he decided he couldn't keep paying and tried to report her to the cops and tried to lie about his involvement. The cops obviously were suspicious and found out he had hired her. He was fired from his job at the school and it crushed my friend."
"I know someone who regularly cheated on their out-of-town girlfriend. I guess he was going to cut all that out when she finished her advanced degree program out of state. She moved to his state and they got an apartment together. While in the shower, his phone was buzzing with messages. She found the girl's username sending all these messages and decided to send her a direct message from her own account, and the other girl was completely honest with her. 'I know who you are. I hook up with your boyfriend all the time, including last weekend at your new apartment in your bed.' Etc."
"Firefighter asked another firefighter to cover his shift by working for him. He then went and had sex with that guy's wife that day."
"My cousin told me this while he was in boot camp. There was a guy who had a girlfriend/wife and a girl who had a boyfriend/husband. The guy and girl decided to cheat on their S.O.s the day before graduating from boot camp. A sergeant, who was a family man and didn't approve of people who cheated on their S.O.s, saw them kissing and had them call their partners to tell them that they wouldn't be graduating from boot camp and needed to start from day one again because they chose to cheat on their partners."
"My friend was partying with her boyfriend and some other people. Her boyfriend had sex with another girl on the same couch as his girlfriend while she was passed out. She woke up part of the way through it and just didn't know what to do."
"I was working in IT and needed to perform manual backups of sales laptops. Long story short, I found dozens of pictures and videos of two coworkers getting it on in a company-provided hotel room. They left nothing to the imagination. The guy also saved screenshots of texts between him and his wife. She had found out about the affair and was in the process of divorcing him. It was really messy — kids involved and all that. I sat him down and told him I found stuff that shouldn't be on company property, and he turned white as a ghost. But, I told him I'd keep it between us, which I did. Data was deleted and that was it about it."
"When I was a police officer, a coworker found his wife in bed with another police officer from the same district. The wife would tell the lover about her husband's weekly schedule, and her lover would have his changed in order to have sex with the wife while her husband was working. Problem was, one day, her husband got dismissed three hours early and went back home without texting his wife first. He had some suspects but never imagined it was another police officer."
"The day my brother was born, my father was in the hospital with my mom for the delivery, and he told her he wished she wasn't the mom. He then went and spent the night at his girlfriend's house while I (5 years old) stayed with my grandparents. He was a long haul trucker and was back on the road immediately after, so my mom brought my brother home from the hospital alone, had 5-year-old me to take care of, and had a dog as well. And it was a C-section birth. No idea how she did it."
"This girl in high school cheated on her boyfriend with the guys who bullied him. Then, she got bullied by all their girlfriends."
"Years back, in my early 20s, there was this one guy in my extended friend group. I didn't know him that well, but he was a friend of a friend of a friend, and we would occasionally find ourselves in the same social gatherings. He had just started dating this girl. She was maybe a few years younger than us. Probably about 18 or 19. They were at the very start of their relationship, so I don't know if they were exclusive to each other, but people knew they were dating. A bunch of them had a night out. I didn't go out, but I heard about what happened later on. This friend of mind got extremely drunk. The girl he was seeing helped him back to his house. His dad was still up and heard them trying to get into the door. This was the first time the girl had met his dad. The dad helped my friend to his room and then invited the girl in for a chat and to get to know her a bit. The girl ended up having sex with the dad that night."
"I know a woman who has been cheating on her high school sweetheart (who joined the Navy) basically since the jump. We all sort of assumed they had an agreement because she was very fixated on being 'not like other girls' and having wildly inappropriate levels of friendship and intimacy with all his male friends. She found some trashy divorced guy 20 years her senior with a daughter eight years younger than herself at her office and proceeded to carry on a year-long affair (including interstate travel) and finally had to come clean to her husband when it got too obvious and her lies about travel were falling apart. They got divorced, and it turns out she had been sleeping with basically all his friends the whole time."
"A good friend of mine was a doctor who took over his father's private practice when he retired. His wife was a med student when they first started dating, 10 years younger than him and one of the most intelligent and beautiful people I've ever met. They became associates when she graduated, and under her management, the practice grew to four associates and six contracted doctors. Truly an amazing person, highly competent, born leader, funny, the list goes on. But, my friend no longer felt like the center of attention, so he quit being a doctor to become an influencer. You can imagine how that went. When that failed, he went and started an affair with a 19-year-old nurse-in-training who worked for his wife. She learned about the affair when the girl's mother knocked on her door."
"She cheated on me with her cousin's fiancé while I was out of town for work. This fiancé had also cheated on his partner with her own mother. My foolish self tried to move past it, only to find out shortly after marriage that she and someone I considered a friend for over 12 years were screwing around. Moral of the story: trust and listen to your gut."
"A friend of a friend ended up dating her uni professor for a bit. He was older than her, but it was getting serious and they were making life plans together. On weekends, he would regularly go visit his 'mother' in another city. I can't remember exactly how she found out, but it turns out that the 'mother' was indeed his wife, who was really, really sick. When our friend found out, she confronted him and he said that he loved her and wanted to have kids with her, but he wanted her to be patient because he was just trying to put his wife in hospice so he wouldn't have to deal with her anymore and could be with my friend. She obviously dumped him on the spot and the dude continued to try and pursue her, sending her the most cringeworthy love messages and videos. Mind you, this was a university professor in his late-40s"
"My husband confessed to cheating on me while we were in the car AFTER my mom had a stroke and I'd just seen her in the ICU not knowing if she would live or die. We had an hour-long car ride home and I had to keep it together when all I wanted to do was freak out."
And: "A woman I knew suspected her husband was cheating on her, but he was very good at hiding his tracks and she couldn't get proof. She was trying to get evidence to divorce him. Then, one day, the mistress showed up at the door to confess everything. Turns out he'd cheated on the mistress with a third girl and gotten that girl pregnant. Divorce happened very quickly after that."

Instagram wrongly accuses some users of breaching child sex abuse rules
Instagram users have told the BBC of the "extreme stress" of having their accounts banned after being wrongly accused by the platform of breaching its rules on child sexual exploitation. The BBC has been in touch with three people who were told by parent company Meta that their accounts were being permanently disabled, only to have them reinstated shortly after their cases were highlighted to journalists. "I've lost endless hours of sleep, felt isolated. It's been horrible, not to mention having an accusation like that over my head," one of the men told BBC News. Meta declined to comment. BBC News has been contacted by more than 100 people who claim to have been wrongly banned by Meta. Some talk of a loss of earnings after being locked out of their business pages, while others highlight the pain of no longer having access to years of pictures and memories. Many point to the impact it has had on their mental health. Over 27,000 people have signed a petition that accuses Meta's moderation system, powered by artificial intelligence (AI), of falsely banning accounts and then having an appeal process that is unfit for purpose. Thousands of people are also in Reddit forums dedicated to the subject, and many users have posted on social media about being banned. Meta has previously acknowledged a problem with Facebook Groups but denied its platforms were more widely affected. The BBC has changed the names of the people in this piece to protect their identities. David, from Aberdeen in Scotland, was suspended from Instagram on 4 June. He was told he had not followed Meta's community standards on child sexual exploitation, abuse and nudity. He appealed that day, and was then permanently disabled on Instagram and his associated Facebook and Facebook Messenger accounts. David found a Reddit thread, where many others were posting that they had also been wrongly banned over child sexual exploitation. "We have lost years of memories, in my case over 10 years of messages, photos and posts - due to a completely outrageous and vile accusation," he told BBC News. He said Meta was "an embarrassment", with AI-generated replies and templated responses to his questions. He still has no idea why his account was banned. "I've lost endless hours of sleep, extreme stress, felt isolated. It's been horrible, not to mention having an accusation like that over my head. "Although you can speak to people on Reddit, it is hard to go and speak to a family member or a colleague. They probably don't know the context that there is a ban wave going on." The BBC raised David's case to Meta on 3 July, as one of a number of people who claimed to have been wrongly banned over child sexual exploitation. Within hours, his account was reinstated. In a message sent to David, and seen by the BBC, the tech giant said: "We're sorry that we've got this wrong, and that you weren't able to use Instagram for a while. Sometimes, we need to take action to help keep our community safe." "It is a massive weight off my shoulders," said David. How can you keep your child safe online? What is AI and how does it work? Faisal was banned from Instagram on 6 June over alleged child sexual exploitation and, like David, found his Facebook account suspended too. The student from London is embarking on a career in the creative arts, and was starting to earn money via commissions on his Instagram page when it was suspended. He appealed after feeling he had done nothing wrong, and then his account was then banned a few minutes later. He told BBC News: "I don't know what to do and I'm really upset. "[Meta] falsely accuse me of a crime that I have never done, which also damages my mental state and health and it has put me into pure isolation throughout the past month." His case was also raised with Meta by the BBC on 3 July. About five hours later, his accounts were reinstated. He received the exact same email as David, with the apology from Meta. He told BBC News he was "quite relieved" after hearing the news. "I am trying to limit my time on Instagram now." Faisal said he remained upset over the incident, and is now worried the account ban might come up if any background checks are made on him. A third user Salim told BBC News that he also had accounts falsely banned for child sexual exploitation violations. He highlighted his case to journalists, stating that appeals are "largely ignored", business accounts were being affected, and AI was "labelling ordinary people as criminal abusers". Almost a week after he was banned, his Instagram and Facebook accounts were reinstated. When asked by BBC News, Meta declined to comment on the cases of David, Faisal, and Salim, and did not answer questions about whether it had a problem with wrongly accusing users of child abuse offences. It seems in one part of the world, however, it has acknowledged there is a wider issue. The BBC has learned that the chair of the Science, ICT, Broadcasting, and Communications Committee at the National Assembly in South Korea, said last month that Meta had acknowledged the possibility of wrongful suspensions for people in her country. Dr Carolina Are, a blogger and researcher at Northumbria University into social media moderation, said it was hard to know what the root of the problem was because Meta was not being open about it. However, she suggested it could be due to recent changes to the wording of some its community guidelines and an ongoing lack of a workable appeal process. "Meta often don't explain what it is that triggered the deletion. We are not privy to what went wrong with the algorithm," she told BBC News. In a previous statement, Meta said: "We take action on accounts that violate our policies, and people can appeal if they think we've made a mistake." Meta, in common with all big technology firms, have come under increased pressure in recent years from regulators and authorities to make their platforms safe spaces. Meta told the BBC it used a combination of people and technology to find and remove accounts that broke its rules, and was not aware of a spike in erroneous account suspension. Meta says its child sexual exploitation policy relates to children and "non-real depictions with a human likeness", such as art, content generated by AI or fictional characters. Meta also told the BBC a few weeks ago it uses technology to identify potentially suspicious behaviours, such as adult accounts being reported by teen accounts, or adults repeatedly searching for "harmful" terms. Meta states that when it becomes aware of "apparent child exploitation", it reports it to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC) in the US. NCMEC told BBC News it makes all of those reports available to law enforcement around the world.

Teen Cancels Birthday Trip After Mom Demands Stepsister Be Invited: 'I Just Wanted One Weekend Without Her'
A teen pulled the plug on his birthday cabin trip after learning one unwelcome guest was coming along Years of tension with his stepsister came to a head when she was added to the birthday guest list His mom called it a tantrum — but he says he just wants one weekend aloneA teen is turning to the Reddit community for support after his decision to cancel a birthday weekend trip sparked a family dispute. The 16-year-old, who is almost 17, shares that he called off the trip after his mom insisted his stepsister Megan be included. As per his post, trouble began almost immediately after their families blended. The teen's mother married his stepfather, Karl, four years ago, and Megan, now 15, began living with them part-time. He explains that his dad died nine years ago, and he has lived full-time with his mom and Karl ever since. 'When we all moved in together, Megan kept trying to come into my room whenever she wanted and wouldn't let me shut the door,' he writes. His discomfort over the lack of privacy was repeatedly brushed aside, forcing him to install locks on both his bedroom and closet doors just to feel secure. The boundary issues didn't stop there. From stealing and destroying his belongings to making scenes at family events, Megan's behavior has escalated over the years, he claims. 'She used to switch my video games without asking and would throw them if she thought they looked boring or 'too boyish,' ' he recalls. One particularly painful memory involves Megan unplugging his PS2 — a sentimental console that had belonged to his late father. He adds that Megan once brought friends over who tried to break into his locked room and closet, prompting him to become even more protective of his personal space. Despite these incidents, the teen says his mother has continued to defend Megan's behavior, insisting she's 'just trying to bond.' The poster outlines a pattern of what he describes as 'constant disrespect.' Megan has reportedly taken money left by their parents, ordered food just for herself and dismissed his complaints. 'She tells me to suck it up like it's normal to just take whatever you want from someone else,' he says. Even when their parents are away, Megan reportedly seizes control of shared resources and acts as if she's in charge. Beyond stealing and boundary-crossing, Megan's behavior has at times become personal and inappropriate, he writes. 'She's weird around my friends…flirts with them, tries to kiss them. A few of them told me they're uncomfortable coming over now,' he shares. In another incident, she tried pressuring him into dating her best friend, then reacted angrily when he declined. The situation came to a head when Megan found out he was gay and hadn't told her. 'She had a total meltdown,' he says. 'She told me I should've told her because she's my 'sister.' I told her she isn't.' Despite the repeated tension, his mother has continued pushing for Megan's inclusion in family activities and milestones; something the teen says has made him feel ignored and unsupported. 'My mom keeps saying Megan is part of the family and has to be included,' he writes. 'But I'm the one being hurt in all this, and nobody seems to care.' When his mother informed him that Megan would be attending his birthday weekend at a rented cabin, and that the dates had been changed specifically to fit her schedule, he decided he'd had enough. 'I told her to cancel the whole thing. I told my friends the trip was off and that we'd do something else instead," he shares. His mother did not take it well. 'She told me not to throw a tantrum and to think about Megan's feelings,' he writes. 'But I just said I didn't care anymore. I didn't want her there, and it would ruin the weekend if she came.' The teen describes the cancellation as a last resort after years of feeling dismissed. Even after asking his mother for help in setting boundaries, he says Megan continues to come into his room without permission, break his things and cross personal lines without consequence. 'She even ruined my favorite hoodie by giving it to her best friend,' he adds. 'Even when Mom told her to make it right, she just kept asking for forgiveness instead of changing.' Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories..' Now, he's asking the Reddit community whether he was wrong for canceling a celebration that had been meant to bring him joy. Commenters are squarely on his side. "Suggest that Mom and step dad take Megan for a weekend to the cabin. She would be out of town for your birthday, and [you] could have a nice afternoon and evening with his friends," writes one. Adds another, "Calling off the cabin trip was you drawing a boundary. That is not a tantrum. That is self preservation with receipts. You are not excluding family. You are excluding someone who has consistently made your life harder. Big difference." Read the original article on People

28 Cheaters Who Really Made Sure To Twist The Knife After Stabbing Their Partners In The Back
Reddit user u/h3llofaRide posed the question, "What's the worst cheating story you've ever heard?" The replies quickly filled with a bunch of infuriating and devastating stories of infidelity. Here's what people shared: "My dad cheated on my mom with my best friend's mom who was also married. I was a teenager at the time, and I unfortunately found out before my mom did.

My friend found out later because he was missing from the school where they both worked, and she found out he had been arrested or detained or something (I forget exactly) because he had gone to the police to report that he was being blackmailed. The sex worker had started blackmailing him and he went to a loan shark to get $1,000 to pay her off. When she demanded more money, I guess he decided he couldn't keep paying and tried to report her to the cops and tried to lie about his involvement. The cops obviously were suspicious and found out he had hired her. He was fired from his job at the school and it crushed my friend." "I know someone who regularly cheated on their out-of-town girlfriend. I guess he was going to cut all that out when she finished her advanced degree program out of state. She moved to his state and they got an apartment together. While in the shower, his phone was buzzing with messages. She found the girl's username sending all these messages and decided to send her a direct message from her own account, and the other girl was completely honest with her. 'I know who you are. I hook up with your boyfriend all the time, including last weekend at your new apartment in your bed.' Etc." "Firefighter asked another firefighter to cover his shift by working for him. He then went and had sex with that guy's wife that day." "My cousin told me this while he was in boot camp. There was a guy who had a girlfriend/wife and a girl who had a boyfriend/husband. The guy and girl decided to cheat on their S.O.s the day before graduating from boot camp. A sergeant, who was a family man and didn't approve of people who cheated on their S.O.s, saw them kissing and had them call their partners to tell them that they wouldn't be graduating from boot camp and needed to start from day one again because they chose to cheat on their partners." "My friend was partying with her boyfriend and some other people. Her boyfriend had sex with another girl on the same couch as his girlfriend while she was passed out. She woke up part of the way through it and just didn't know what to do." "I was working in IT and needed to perform manual backups of sales laptops. Long story short, I found dozens of pictures and videos of two coworkers getting it on in a company-provided hotel room. They left nothing to the imagination. The guy also saved screenshots of texts between him and his wife. She had found out about the affair and was in the process of divorcing him. It was really messy — kids involved and all that. I sat him down and told him I found stuff that shouldn't be on company property, and he turned white as a ghost. But, I told him I'd keep it between us, which I did. Data was deleted and that was it about it." "When I was a police officer, a coworker found his wife in bed with another police officer from the same district. The wife would tell the lover about her husband's weekly schedule, and her lover would have his changed in order to have sex with the wife while her husband was working. Problem was, one day, her husband got dismissed three hours early and went back home without texting his wife first. He had some suspects but never imagined it was another police officer." "The day my brother was born, my father was in the hospital with my mom for the delivery, and he told her he wished she wasn't the mom. He then went and spent the night at his girlfriend's house while I (5 years old) stayed with my grandparents. He was a long haul trucker and was back on the road immediately after, so my mom brought my brother home from the hospital alone, had 5-year-old me to take care of, and had a dog as well. And it was a C-section birth. No idea how she did it." "This girl in high school cheated on her boyfriend with the guys who bullied him. Then, she got bullied by all their girlfriends." "Years back, in my early 20s, there was this one guy in my extended friend group. I didn't know him that well, but he was a friend of a friend of a friend, and we would occasionally find ourselves in the same social gatherings. He had just started dating this girl. She was maybe a few years younger than us. Probably about 18 or 19. They were at the very start of their relationship, so I don't know if they were exclusive to each other, but people knew they were dating. A bunch of them had a night out. I didn't go out, but I heard about what happened later on. This friend of mind got extremely drunk. The girl he was seeing helped him back to his house. His dad was still up and heard them trying to get into the door. This was the first time the girl had met his dad. The dad helped my friend to his room and then invited the girl in for a chat and to get to know her a bit. The girl ended up having sex with the dad that night." "I know a woman who has been cheating on her high school sweetheart (who joined the Navy) basically since the jump. We all sort of assumed they had an agreement because she was very fixated on being 'not like other girls' and having wildly inappropriate levels of friendship and intimacy with all his male friends. She found some trashy divorced guy 20 years her senior with a daughter eight years younger than herself at her office and proceeded to carry on a year-long affair (including interstate travel) and finally had to come clean to her husband when it got too obvious and her lies about travel were falling apart. They got divorced, and it turns out she had been sleeping with basically all his friends the whole time." "A good friend of mine was a doctor who took over his father's private practice when he retired. His wife was a med student when they first started dating, 10 years younger than him and one of the most intelligent and beautiful people I've ever met. They became associates when she graduated, and under her management, the practice grew to four associates and six contracted doctors. Truly an amazing person, highly competent, born leader, funny, the list goes on. But, my friend no longer felt like the center of attention, so he quit being a doctor to become an influencer. You can imagine how that went. When that failed, he went and started an affair with a 19-year-old nurse-in-training who worked for his wife. She learned about the affair when the girl's mother knocked on her door." "She cheated on me with her cousin's fiancé while I was out of town for work. This fiancé had also cheated on his partner with her own mother. My foolish self tried to move past it, only to find out shortly after marriage that she and someone I considered a friend for over 12 years were screwing around. Moral of the story: trust and listen to your gut." "A friend of a friend ended up dating her uni professor for a bit. He was older than her, but it was getting serious and they were making life plans together. On weekends, he would regularly go visit his 'mother' in another city. I can't remember exactly how she found out, but it turns out that the 'mother' was indeed his wife, who was really, really sick. When our friend found out, she confronted him and he said that he loved her and wanted to have kids with her, but he wanted her to be patient because he was just trying to put his wife in hospice so he wouldn't have to deal with her anymore and could be with my friend. She obviously dumped him on the spot and the dude continued to try and pursue her, sending her the most cringeworthy love messages and videos. Mind you, this was a university professor in his late-40s" "My husband confessed to cheating on me while we were in the car AFTER my mom had a stroke and I'd just seen her in the ICU not knowing if she would live or die. We had an hour-long car ride home and I had to keep it together when all I wanted to do was freak out." And: "A woman I knew suspected her husband was cheating on her, but he was very good at hiding his tracks and she couldn't get proof. She was trying to get evidence to divorce him. Then, one day, the mistress showed up at the door to confess everything. Turns out he'd cheated on the mistress with a third girl and gotten that girl pregnant. Divorce happened very quickly after that." Oh. My. Heavens. What's the worst cheating story you've ever heard? Tell us in the comments!
