How to Deal With Cheaters/i'm so sad

Advertisement


Question
I was very much in love with a man who cheated on me the years we were together and left me for the other woman. When he dumped me I didn't know about the woman, so I just wrote him an email saying how much I would miss him and goodbye. Now months later he replies to my last email  randomly and says how much he misses me and loves me. What the hell!??! Why now after all this time has passed.

So in your experience what do you think happened. Things between her and him didn't work out and he realized he made a mistake? Feels guilty about how he treated me, etc.

I am still very sad about what he did to me. I trusted him, and he treated me like that. I try to avoid both of them but I see them together downtown sometimes, and when they see me they smirk and sneer. It really hurts. I am so sad :(

Answer
First off, if he cheated on you, that’s a pretty good indication of what type of guy he is and that he really wasn’t that into you.
Secondly, it took him this long to write back? That’s not good.
He is probably looking to score and thinks that since you wrote him and miss him that he might have a chance. I assume he read your email a long time ago.
I suggest you let this go and leave him out of your life! Why would you want to waste your time on someone who hurts you makes you feel so bad? You need to move on so you can find the man that will love and honor you and make you feel good! You are worth more than this creep can offer you!

Is he/she cheating? The signs of a cheater are obvious if you know what to look for. If you think your mate is cheating ask me. I can also help you heal after being cheated on. If you are thinking about cheating but need help so you will NOT, I can try and help you. Please do NOT ask me how to cheat and get away with it. Cheating is hurtful and I do not condone it.

Experience

I have spent years studying relationships. I also have done some research on why people cheat and what to look for if you think they are.
