He Was Unfaithful Years Ago But Just Asked His Wife For A Divorce After Finding Out She’s Been Sleeping With His Friend
9 years ago, this man got married to his wife, and they have been together for 12 years in total. They have two children, a 4-year-old and an 8-year-old. A year after their youngest was born, he carried out an affair with one of their mutual friends.
He deeply regrets what he did. His friend was relocating to Germany with her husband, and he slept with her six times before she made the move.
He and his wife weren’t physically close for more than a year, and that’s what tempted him to go for his friend.
He presumed his wife would never learn of his infidelity, but his friend spilled the beans to his wife a year later.
His friend decided to leave her husband, and she was weighed down by guilt, which was her reason for telling the truth.
“She either wanted to take me down with her, or she assumed we would divorce and we might get together,” he explained.
“Either way, I graveled and begged my wife’s forgiveness. She wanted to divorce but didn’t. I know she stayed mainly because of how hard it is to be a single mom, and I hoped she would eventually forgive me.”
“She asked that I agree to let her have an affair like I did with someone of her choosing as a condition of staying married, and I stupidly agreed because I didn’t think she would actually do it.”
It hasn’t been easy moving forward, but he thought his wife found it in her heart to forgive him. They’ve been working well together raising their kids, have a great physical bond now, and even purchased a home to live closer to her mom and dad.

He really believed his affair was buried in the past where he wanted it. But then, four months ago, his wife confessed that she was sleeping with one of his friends, who just got divorced.
He was sad and furious, but his wife outlined their previous agreement: she was allowed to sleep with someone else because he did the same thing years ago.
“She is way more manipulative than I thought possible because she waited until one of my close friends was divorced,” he said.
“I tried not to show it, but I was livid, and I feel so hurt. Yes, I know it’s ironic because I cheated first. She has since finished the affair and told me it was the same length and number of “experiences” as mine.”
“I haven’t talked to that friend, and I have no idea if I can ever again. He never reached out, so I assume it’s the end of that friendship. I’m thinking of a divorce because clearly, she never forgave me, and I can’t forgive her for this. I brought up divorce, and she got mad and reminded me I gave her a free affair card years ago.”
He said to his wife she has not moved on, but she retorted that she was able to forgive him as soon as she began her own fling.
He’s left wondering if he’s in the wrong for wanting a divorce right now.
