One of the most difficult things a person could ever have to go through is to deal with the unfaithfulness of their significant other. It seems to be especially difficult for those who discover a cheating partner before they are even married.
That is what we have of the following story about a woman who found out her fiancé was cheating on her. Although the man tried to make a lot of excuses, none of which were any good, it fell on deaf ears.
Rather than simply having him move out of the home, she decided to get a little sweet revenge. Read on to find out more.
Standing in our once shared living room, the heaviness of betrayal nearly crushing me, I understood that slipping away quietly wasn’t my path. I needed to make a statement. “Now he texts me begging to make it stop,” Chloe recounted, a bitter edge to her voice.
It all began accidentally enough. I had left my laptop charger at the office, and I needed to make an online payment—so, I borrowed Dale’s laptop. That’s when I stumbled upon the shocking emails, filled with details no partner would ever want to discover.
As I sifted through the emails—graphic love notes between Dale and a woman named Mandy—he called out from the kitchen, oblivious to the storm brewing mere feet away. “How much chili is too much?” he asked casually. “You decide,” I responded, my voice hollow, as I shut down his laptop.
I was torn on how to confront him. With our wedding only six months away and the invitations already mailed, the stakes were high. Finally, stepping into the kitchen where Dale hummed along to a tune, I couldn’t contain my rage any longer.
Suddenly, the man in front of me seemed like a stranger—a shadow of the person I was supposed to marry. “So, Mandy, huh?” I confronted him sharply. The room froze. Dale tried to explain, claiming Mandy meant nothing, that it was a mistake meant to reaffirm his commitment to me. “Mandy was just for me to realize how good I have it with you,” he tried to justify, reaching for a bottle of vodka.
His excuses didn’t suffice. “And that’s an acceptable reason?” I challenged, my tone incredulous. Eventually, Dale packed a bag to stay with his brother, saying we needed to cool off. I agreed but with a plan in mind. “Give me a few days, and I’ll be out of here. I need to get my things and I’m done,” I stated firmly, resolved to leave but not without leaving my mark.
