Cheating can take many forms: there’s physical infidelity or emotional infidelity, then there’s one-time things and premeditated cheating. It’s hard to say which combination is the most hurtful, but some people say that the best revenge is to give the cheater a taste of their own medicine.
This cheating saga comes to you from the guy who got exactly that. The man spent six years being unfaithful to his wife but pulled a surprised Pikachu face when he found out that his wife had been doing the same thing. The man shared his story online looking for some comfort, yet faced incessant roasting and little support.

She’s a licensed clinical psychologist, affair recovery specialist, and author of The Courage to Stay: How to Heal From an Affair and Save Your Marriage.
