We were together almost five years. I trusted her with everything, my heart, my future, my past. I never questioned her loyalty. That’s what hurts the most now.
I found out by accident. I wasn’t snooping. Her phone lit up, and something just didn’t feel right. What I saw unraveled everything. Messages, emotions, connection, just not with me.
When I asked her about it, she lied. Looked me in the eyes and denied it, like it meant nothing. Even after everything I saw, part of me still wanted to believe her. But I couldn’t unsee the truth.
I didn’t yell. I didn’t cry in front of her. I just left. Packed a bag, walked out, and didn’t look back. She hasn’t reached out since. Maybe that’s what’s been hardest, the silence.
It’s strange. I’m not angry as much as I am hollow. Like something inside me quietly gave up. I go through my days pretending I’m fine, but deep down, I still feel like I’m standing in that moment, realizing the person I loved most was willing to lie to my face.
I just needed to put this somewhere outside my own head. Because carrying it alone is getting heavy.
Thanks for reading.

You didnt deserve that anbd im really sorry youre carrying this the fact that you walked away with dignity shows incredible strength healing takes time but this pain wont last forever and youre not alone
Losing love hurts, but losing trust cuts even deeper, it shakes the ground you stand on. The fact you walked away with dignity shows your strength, even if your heart hasn’t caught up yet.
I feel your pain. Been there, trust me, it’s brutal. But don’t let this chomp away at you. Hard to accept rn, but it’s her loss, big time. People like that will always be stuck in a loop of dishonesty. You? You pulled the ejection seat. That takes guts. Hang in there.
It’s like time stands still and everyone else is moving. So hard, sorry brother.
That’s a real bummer dude. That silence says all you need to hold onto through all of this! I hope you’re able to find someone that will give you the love you deserve, not the facade of love. I’m sorry this happened, I hate that people are so careless with others feelings… especially ones they allegedly loved
