I never thought I would be in this situation. The man I loved, trusted, and built my life with betrayed me. That pain alone is unbearable, but what makes it even worse is that instead of taking responsibility, he’s somehow making it seem like it’s my fault. He was the one who cheated, yet I’m the one being blamed.
When I confronted him, I expected regret, guilt—maybe even an apology. But instead, he turned the tables on me. He told me I had changed, that I wasn’t the same woman he married. He said I was too busy, too distant, too wrapped up in everything but him. It was as if he had been waiting for the moment to place the blame on me, to justify what he had done.
At first, I felt lost and confused. I started questioning myself—was I really the problem? Could I have done something differently? But then I took a step back and saw the truth. No matter what challenges we faced, he had a choice. Instead of working through our problems, he chose to betray me. That is not my fault.
So now, the question is: How do I take control of this situation? Do I keep trying to fix something with a man who refuses to take responsibility? Or do I walk away and reclaim my power? One thing I know for sure—I refuse to let his betrayal define me, and I refuse to carry blame that isn’t mine.
