Is it really happening? It was a question that made me question reality. The time I found out that my husband was cheating on me was the time I was faced with reality but I couldn’t grasp it for what it was.
I remember coming up with excuses for him! The sweet person I had met at the university and later married had been my perfect guy. He was kind, gentle, humble, and everything I had wanted in a lifetime partner. More than that, we were best friends.
When I found out that he had been cheating and that it wasn’t just a one-night stand but an affair that had been going on for six months, it tore my world apart. I just couldn’t grasp the fact that he was capable of such a thing. He was a nerd to begin with, the nutty professor type. Very intelligent and physics was his thing. Besides that, the guy who emerged when we met and started dating was a kind and gentle soul.
The guy who later emerged many years later, was someone who made me question reality. Years later and when circumstances had changed meaning he was no longer the nerdy guy or maybe he still was but the “money” he was earning made him very attractive to the women who were willing to do anything for him. This included breaking up a marriage. It was a no holds barred kind of thing.
You’ve heard the saying, “money corrupts.” Well, it took a kind and sweet person and turned him into an arrogant and total SOB! I no longer recognized him and even though I questioned my reality at the time, it was time to let him go.
I did.
