You didn't fail. Your cheating ex did.
...
To all of those who have been cheated on, IT IS NOT YOUR FAULT.
While some things you did or said (or not did or not said) may have bugged your Ex, THEY chose not to address that. THEY kept the secrets. THEY lied. THEY cheated.
It was THEIR CHOICE.
NOT YOURS.
...
I am working past this myself, and I am here to tell you that IT IS NOT YOUR FAULT.
And, frankly, if your ex, like mine, keeps trying to place the blame on you,
THEY ARE NOT WORTH THE EMOTIONAL PAIN,
and
YOU DESERVE BETTER!
