To be betrayed

After thirty years of marriage I was delivered a blow that has forever knocked the wind out of my spirit. My wife had been seeing a younger guy. All she said was that it wasn’t my fault she just wanted someone younger. As if that would ease the pain. It literally felt as if someone was kicking my insides out. I had to take some time off from work because I was unable to function. I would start weeping at any given moment for no reason. Well yes there was a reason, I loved her more than life itself. Maybe it would’ve been different if I had given her a reason for her action, but I hadn’t. I went into severe manic depression. I finally went to see a counselor which I must say did help over a period of time. I have lots of friends and without them I seriously doubt that I would’ve made it. The only problem I’m dealing with now is trust issues. I trusted her with my life. Can anyone blame me for feeling this way? I’m not ignorant enough to think that all women are like the one I had. It’s just a matter of finding the right one. I did not say this to receive pity cause I’m not like that. I only did it to let people know exactly how I feel about people that cheat. For the men that cheat on their wives, you’re not a man, but a far cry from being one. It takes a man to love in better or worse. For the women that cheat on their husbands, you’re nothing but a cheap slut that I wouldn’t give the time of day to. I hope this will give some a different point of view if they’re thinking about cheating on their spouses. Peace
