My wife and I had been married for several years and we had a beautiful baby girl together. I never suspected that she would cheat on me. I went away to graduate school about 200 miles from home during the week and came home every weekend. When the program was over two years later, I moved back home full-time. Shortly after I moved back, my wife said that she wanted to separate. I found out that she was having an affair with the next door neighbor.

I couldn't believe that I didn't know what was going on. She left to be with him and moved far away. She left me and our little girl. She doesn't even want to split custody. She ended up marrying the guy and they never had any kids together. The ironic thing is that she told her family that I cheated on her. Every so often, I run into one of them and it is very awkward. I never had the heart to tell them that it was her that cheated. They probably wouldn't believe me anyway!

I have finally found a woman to settle down with and will be asking her to marry me soon. I already bought the ring and my daughter approves.

My husband and I have been together since we were 16. We had our first child at 17 and our second several years later. We married at 21 and struggled to make ends meet. He worked hard and I put myself through school and was able to get a great paying job at the local hospital. I worked a lot of overtime to help furnish our brand new house and pay for the new pool and an RV. I thought that things were perfect. We had achieved our dreams and surprised our families who never thought we could make it on our own.

My life was shattered when I found out that he was shacking up with some tramp from work. Why would he do this to me after all the things I did for him and us? I kicked him out of the house as soon as I found out. His "girlfriend" was just wanting to play the field. She wasn't looking for a lasting relationship with anyone. So, she dumped him shortly after I did.

Boy, was he ever apologetic. He wanted to come back home, but I just couldn't let him back after he betrayed me. Well, he persisted and, eventually, I took pity on the poor guy. About six months after discovering that he cheated on me, I decided to give him another chance. That was about five years ago and he has since moved back home and we have had another child. We went through counseling and have a better understanding of each other now.

I was married to my husband for several years before I discovered that he was having an affair. Once confronted, he was apologetic and promised that it would "never" happen again. I believed him and we went to counseling and tried to work things out. Several months later, he was at it again. He was "sorry" and we tried again to work things out. After a while, I found out that he was cheating yet again and this time I told him to get out. I don't know why, but I kept forgiving him and trying again.

To make a long story short, after he cheated on me for the sixth time, I finally kicked him out for good. It has been several years and the divorce is now final. I would rather be alone for the rest of my life if it comes down to it than to deal with his repeated infidelity. Obviously, he never intended to be true to me. I am just thankful that we never had any kids together!
