Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

You didn’t know and immediately did the right thing upon learning. You were lied to by omission, it’s not a normalized thing to ask “are you in an exclusive relationship?”. The cheater ruined the marriage, not you.
That conversation ranks up there with one of the more difficult ones I’ve ever had to approach a stranger for. Had she not made such a big deal about me not talking to him when I was first approaching, it probably wouldn’t have gotten his attention and I might not have followed thru with it.
Acting guilty instead of playing it cool definitely dug some of that hole. I can’t really imagine, but I certainly believe you in that it must have been incredibly difficult.
