I've never been cheated on, but I have cheated on someone else once. My ex was this hot blonde hair blue eyed chick. Very hot. We met in CFA L1 class. We started studying together and dating, but we went through some tumultuous times one night. We were arguing on the phone and I thought we were almost done. I was at this party in Adam's Morgan DC and sat down to chill and have a few beers and this girl was all over me. We went outside and she started openly flashing me. I could see her underwear blatantly and she was getting off on it. Then, she left and said she would be right back and she came back in 5min and started flashing me again but, she took off her underwear so was bare naked. I was totally hooked and was a bit buzzed and we went up to her room and did the deed. I told my gf at the time and she was pissed, but we stayed together. Until I broke up with her.....

I’ll bite. I had an ex cheat on me. The most important thing you need to know is most women do not have ice water in their veins and can’t keep a cool demeanor after they cheat.

In my case, it was a concert with a crew of friends while I was working on my GMAT prep. I told her have fun and didn’t have a care or worry in the world.

The next day something was off. Women have awful poker faces. So I probe at how things went, how was the after party, whatever. I heard a name and knew it. So I confront her, “You did something with Nick didn’t you!?” She just broke down crying and that was that. No forgiveness no second chances. I went on to matriculate in b school and she monkey branched me and married a now doctor. Now she’s his problem. Looking back, Nick did me a solid. I should probably get him a beer if I ever see him again.

To the young monkeys. Have the stones to cut and run. I have a zero tolerance policy for disrespect and dishonesty in all areas of my life. There are plenty of more beautiful, more intelligent, and truly loyal females in the dating pool. Don’t settle for a second chance.

 

Did it happen?

Yea man. It was a wicked heartbreak.

The circumstances of the evening broke her.

It was a favorite band of hers.

She was with friends killing tequila shots.

Her best friend didn’t really like me.

Nick was a slippery one who had a way with manipulating his way into females beds.

What happened was Nick wore her down. “Wolf isn’t the one, he only cares about himself and his succeeds/money. Look, we’re all out enjoying a great time and he’s studying for a standardized exam for more school? What a fool. He doesn’t care about you. He cares about himself, his dream, and money…bla bla bla” and it broke her down until she did the deed.”

When she was confronted and confessed, I handed her back her things at my apartment and sent her on her way. She begged me to forgive saying it was only a one time thing and it would never happened again and she’d make it right and bla bla bla. Nope. Sent her out and that was that. Didn’t pick up any phone calls or texts and blocked all her socials.

I was pretty jaded for awhile and refused to enter into a solid relationship as they say, “once bitten, twice shy.” But, time does heal all wounds. If I were to bump into her one of these days, I wouldn’t be resentful. Likely cordial and wish her the best.

 

lmfao women will cheat serially for years and years and justify it all types of ways and somehow blame the man when they get caught and feel zero type of way about it because they lost respect for you a long time ago. your girl actually still liked you is the thing but that is usually not the case - especially in marriage. a lot of married people don't even like or even hate each other. you can love and hate someone concurrently also. marriage is fucked.

Thank you, Good sir, for this very valuable comment, I feel people need to realize that they should put their self respect above all else and do themselves right by choosing to not deal with a dishonest or disloyal person and cut ties. Zero tolerance.

Life happens. Know that the one you made your world may very well not be your world. Tons of world to explore and greener grass does exist if you’re not being respected.

 

My boyfriend cheated on me. I found out when I checked my instagram and noticed I had a blocked contact that I didn't know. From there I did some digging. Honestly, it was a silver lining looking back on it. Hope you heal.

I have never had a girlfriend (work at FTP tho, $140k as an1 btw), but once cheated on a rival bank during a competitive and rigorous recruiting process.

I was talking with a mid tier bank (think CVP/PJT) during my junior year of college. They were acting jealous, needy and were constantly asking about who else I was interviewing with, etc. It got to the point where they were calling me almost every day asking "FTPinsider, when can we make things OFFICIAL??" This should have been a red flag, but I was young, dumb, and enamored by this banks hefty (pay) package. I accepted their offer.

A few weeks pass and I am feeling a tickle of regret over settling down so quick with a mere mid-tier bank. I drown my sorrows in alcohol, and lo and behold, I discover a cold email in my drunken stupor from the best bank on the street (think FTP). I immediately contact them to set up a time to meet. They are quick to respond and suggest, "U up now?" I am eager and filled with an alcohol-fueled lust for prestige. The conversation starts slow and flirty, but to my demise, they then unveil their phat and succulent (compensation) package. The thought of my loyal mid-tier bank SA position lingers in the back of my mind, but I simply cannot resist. I dive in raw and the rest is history. Their (pay) package is like a drug to me - even still. I reluctantly informed my mid-tier bank the next day, "I have decided not pursue your SA position in favor of an offer that better suits my career goals".

I sometimes feel bad for letting them down, but I know I made the right choice and I will grow from this experience.

 

dork lmao never gf but i make a buck forty guysss. don't explain yourself bro you don't have to be in relationships don't defend and justify shit. but also your story is gay and you are probably also.
