When I found out about my husband\u2019s affair, the shock hit me like a punch to the gut. The betrayal was more than just physical; it was emotional, deep, and far-reaching. But what\u2019s worse than the affair itself is the way he\u2019s made me feel since then.<\/p>\n<p>Instead of expressing remorse for his actions, instead of owning up to the hurt he caused, he\u2019s made it about me. He says I wasn\u2019t there for him enough, that I didn\u2019t show him enough love, enough affection. He tells me I pushed him away by focusing on everything but our relationship. And somehow, through all of this, I find myself carrying the weight of his choices, questioning what I did wrong.<\/p>\n<p>I spent so much time trying to be a good partner\u2014working hard, being supportive, keeping things together. I never once thought I was neglecting him. But now, all I hear is how I failed him, how my actions\u2014or lack thereof\u2014drove him to look elsewhere. I never imagined that after his betrayal, I\u2019d be left wondering if I was the one who should apologize, the one who should try to make things right.<\/p>\n<p>But no matter how much he points the finger at me, I know deep down that cheating is a choice. It\u2019s a betrayal of trust, a conscious decision to break the commitment we made to each other. I didn\u2019t cause this. He did. Yet, here I am, struggling to let go of the guilt he\u2019s placed on me, trying to figure out how to heal from the hurt he caused without losing myself in the process. How did this happen? How did I end up questioning my worth when he\u2019s the one who should be asking for forgiveness?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I never thought I\u2019d be in a situation like this\u2014feeling as though I\u2019m the one who should apologize, the one who should carry the guilt, even though&#8230; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-18259","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/findpath.xyz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18259","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/findpath.xyz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/findpath.xyz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/findpath.xyz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/findpath.xyz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=18259"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/findpath.xyz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18259\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":18261,"href":"https:\/\/findpath.xyz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18259\/revisions\/18261"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/findpath.xyz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=18259"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/findpath.xyz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=18259"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/findpath.xyz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=18259"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
