Would you reach out and take your power back and let them know that they didn’t get away with it? Or would you keep your lips shut and move on.
How would you react if your ex cheated/lined someone else up while you were together but you found out months after the breakup?

Honestly i would be mad and a bit bitter but also realise i dogded a huge bullet.
I would feel happy we were broken up. I would not reach out. Living better is the best revenge
I would not be surprised
If I’m completely over him, I wouldn’t care tbh.
I’d feel bad for the poor girl who ended up with that 💩 bag, and be grateful that i dodged that bullet.
I reacted super poorly when this happened to me. Found out months later and bitched him out. BUT he had been emotionally cheating on me/lining up someone else while I was doing hospice for my grandmother. He convinced me our relationship was ending because my grief made me a bad partner. I internalized that and after the grief subsided, guilt remained for ruining my relationship. He also asked I let him know if I dated someone else because we had talked about getting back together once I recovered emotionally. Nope, turns out he just wanted to be with this other girl, who by the way, was my neighbor. Had been talking to her since before my grandma even got sick.
If I could do it all over again I’d let it go, but truth be told I felt better after confronting him despite the fact that it made me the crazy ex.
Well I already know he’s trash so like what’s one more thing in the evidence box. Hopefully she gave him Chlamydia or something.
It would give me more peace and closure. No point in confronting them and experiencing negative emotions.
I was recently told information about my partners new relationship. Disclaimer: I am off socials, I am not seeking this information. We have mutual friends and they just kind of blurted it out without my say. I had already known he started dating someone within weeks. But recently I found out, he met her while we were still together. The friend who told me this says, he knows the timeline he didn’t do anything wrong. You think my ex would openly admit he met someone else while dating me whom he found attractive and exchanged contact? So I don’t know what really happened, it’s not something I want to know more about and certainly won’t make contact with my ex. It’s unfair, feels like there’s no justice but like others have said all you can do is live your best life, and hey at least yours got herpes 🙃
If I’m already out of that relationship, then I see no value in re-engaging. There’s nothing it can give me.
I don’t want any further contact with that person, so my peace is far better served by continuing on my path thankful that they no longer walk beside me.

Move on. Don’t give them any attention at all.
It is not often that life validates your choices or proves various events happened to your benefit. What you are describing is exactly this. I would drink a shot to it and move on.
If you reach out they’ll think you care. Don’t give them that power.
you dodged a bullet, girl
I would think I’m better off without them.
tell them off .
This actually happened to me, I just moved on and ended up with my husband
Honestly I would feel sorry for her that now she gets to keep him. You lose them how you got them. It’s just a matter of time until they cheat on each other. She just took the trash with her leaving me free to find someone who is worthy of me. I would just be mad he potentially gave me an std or something. Like I tell my partners it’s not my job to make you behave. It’s not my job to make you not cheat. You’re an adult not a child I’m not going to chase you. I deserve to be your main priority and your first and only choice. If another girl manages to take your attention from me then she can have you because I don’t want you. The best revenge you can have is move on and have an amazing life
I wouldn’t. Good riddance.
