The things my brain did to try to protect me still amaze me. There was so much shock. I knew what happened, but I also couldn’t allow myself to know. Betrayal is destructive and it’s a bigger deal than I ever thought it was.

“I felt that I was blowing up our life..”not his actions blew up our lives is a clear indicator that you’d been carrying the burden of the relationship all along. Bravo for sharing this vulnerable glimpse into your thought process. This is so healing to hear!✨💕

Also, depending how long someone is in a relationship for, it could be sunk cost fallacy. That was me with a previous 8-year relationship 🙃

It makes sense. Something traumatic just happened, you want to reach out to the person you're closest to, which usually is the person who caused the trauma. It doesn't make sense, and like you said, our brains play tricks so we can survive. I experienced the same thing

This is why the ‘just leave’ comments are BS because this is the experience of so many betrayed people. Sometimes it isn’t just that easy, at least at first.

My first relationship started at 15 lasted 34 years ended in betrayal and divorce.It nearly destroyed me and I still grieve. My second relationship was 16 years also ended in betrayal.I was committed to these men and loved them unconditionally. They didn't value me. I'm sad for them

Wait this is me. I tried everything when my fiance came out as “polyamorous “ to maintain our life, future, pets, home, etc. Told me I was primary and wanted to marry me. Eventually he gave all the time and attention to the new girl thus neglecting our 6 year relationship…. Stuck while we are selling the home while he continues to date and talk to this new person. Betrayal is the closest word for how I feel.

I was right there in March when my partner got arrested. 3 months after we got engaged. I found out so many truths and I didn't accept and feel them until last week

My brain definitely did that.. my wife cheated with men and we lost everything! I still stayed and now I’m the provider but because it’s been a while and now I’m not so blind. Our relationship has changed so much to the point where I have considered leaving now even though she’s changed. My heart broke and I lost feelings for the person who meant everything to me.. she sees it and so do I..

This is exactly what I’ve been through, you can ignore a betrayal and try to rationalise it and sympathise with the person but time will show you that you simply cannot. It’s such a shock to the system and takes so long to get out, sometimes u gotta force yourself to leave even if you are tearing at the walls on your way out

I feel this so much!! I caught them together and he convinced me that I did not see them kissing that he was willing to blow up our lives to hold hands with her in the park. After 30 years together I was not ready to see who he really was.

This is me currently...I feel so stupid cause I know I'm slightly trying to win him back, even though he's the one who cheated and walked out. But 12 years is alot of history, how can I not fight? I know my worth and I know I deserve better, especially since he's my husband and still said what he said and did what he did. Still doesn't make breaking this bond easier. My friends and family think I'm dumb for still helping him financially, I cant help it. Its a second nature to me. I'm slowly cutting ties though, my heart and head are are war though

i grew up doing this. Its actually hard to quit. It makes it hard to act in the moment. It makes it hard to address harm at the right time.
