Moving On from Betrayal

So yeah, here we go. I’m a 25M and my ex 24F cheated on me about a few months

ago after almost two years together. I thought we had a stable thing going. Not perfect,

but comfortable. Safe. At least that’s what I believed. Then she started

acting weird. The usual signs: suddenly super protective of her phone, “just tired,” staying

late at work even though her job isn’t exactly the kind of place you stay late at.

I brought it up gently because I don’t like accusing people without evidence. She told me I was

being paranoid. Spoiler: I wasn’t. I found the messages a week later. She wasn’t even

trying to hide it—some guy calling her “baby,” planning meetups, inside jokes.
