No, that was the one thing I could not do. It's happened to me, I wish not to detail, but that was years of learning to trust again with her. We did in our own way, but some conclusions come to you don't have to be with them anymore, yet they know you know them in a more intimate way than some ever can.

@awildsheepschase im sorry sorry youvwent through that.
Are you still together?

@Lee2025 No.... but we remained as friends for years, I would drive her to see her father who was dying from Cancer. She would break down and cry and tell me parts as you would want from someone who loved you while she was now with someone. I wanted the best for her, and I knew that kind of weight, and I knew just to give my heart in listening

@awildsheepschase i hope you've healed from the pain inflicted by her betrayal.
I lied to someone I love , it breaks my heart seeing the hurt I've caused. I could bare it all if i could... she didnt deserve any of it

@Lee2025 I am healed, it took years. I won't hide her father became like a father to me too when my father died when I was with her. She tried, but she was not always good to me then, but I don't blame her, I was despondent in grief. Yet her choices were hers and what brought us closer together then was by me telling just how much she hurt me, words I'd rather not repeat, and I surprised myself with how hurtful I could be with words - but that was the only way to convey my hurt and emotions and she did listen.

That healed the betrayal.

I think it helped us grow together in really understanding each other, even if apart now.

@Lee2025 All I can say, don't beat yourself up. There's never really a good reason to lie and cheat, but we are all human and we have to live to learn our flaws while learning from them.

@awildsheepschase im glad you've healed. The person i betrayed has days when shes just hurtful in words. I just always wonder how long it will last , how much can i really take. I never intended to hurt i , i know its hard for her to believe this given her hurt. But i hope she one day knows how much i love her and regret the lies
