Adults 40+ any advice?

Is taking revenge worth it on someone who cheated on you? I’m conflicted between genuinely moving on or taking revenge.

God, no - unless you accept that “the best revenge is living well.” As long as you harbor anger, the person or event holds power over you. Don’t let it.

When the pain fades, and you’re ready, carefully try to understand why your partner cheated. It’s not to place blame or find fault, but to gain greater insight into human nature.
@DownTheStreet I’ve done that but what about consequences, it feels like I’m the only facing them

@LeahLovee the consequence is that he losses you. But if you live well, it will remind him what a great opportunity he messed up. I mean, you could fuck his friend or whatever, but it’ll just cause more trouble.
@DownTheStreet you’re right 🥹 after reading everyone’s post I’m actually making an effort to move on from so many broken relationships and friendships

@LeahLovee life is about living forward
@DownTheStreet that’s so true ❤️
