Man Discovers His Wife Has Been Cheating on Him with Multiple Men While Trying to Silence Her Phone Notifications
A marriage of six years may have just gone down the drain with this man's shocking discovery.
Learning that your spouse has been cheating can be heart-wrenching—it feels like getting hit in the face by a ton of bricks. Your marriage could be thrust into a state of crisis, with the potential to end in divorce.
The desire to understand why your partner cheated is reasonable; however, there is rarely a straightforward explanation for infidelity. It could stem from another issue in your marriage, something from your partner's history, or something completely unconnected to you or your relationship.
Whatever the reason, you'll be grappling with a lot of conflicting emotions and will have much to consider as you determine how to proceed from this point.
One Redditor found himself in a similar situation after discovering that his wife had been having affairs with multiple men. He shared his story on Reddit's "Today I Fucked Up" subreddit, where he explained how her notifications led him to this devastating discovery.
From the story, it was clear that he was enraged and confused about what to do next. In his words:
I’m sitting here, house quiet, nauseous and internally raging, drinking cheap beer, trying to figure out how we got here. I’d wake her up to confront her, but the kids are asleep, and I just don’t have the energy to fight tonight. There are six years down the fuckin' drain, bois.
