Here is my personal story.
My name is Chris! I was gone for a long time on here but i'm BACK!
My boyfriend David and I have been together for almost two years now. We have a great relationship but it wasn't always that way. This past year I cheated on him with my neighbor Mark. Mark and I have known each other for years and he has been there for me for a long time. But he is 37 and I am 22 so we both had it understood that no relationship could happen between us. But then I got drunk one night and it happened. Sadly enough it happened two more times so the drunk as an excuse doesn't apply here. He kept telling me that since I had already done it that it doesn't matter anymore. He also kept inviting me to his house to help with his homework and I would go, but then I figured it out. Turns out he has slept with half the neighborhood doing this and no one had bothered to tell me. One girl stepped forward and I put the affair to an end. She almost pressed charges because she considered getting a girl drunk just to sleep with her as rape. Now, keep in mind, the first night I went over there, I wasn't alone. I had my friend Hika there just in case. But she proved useless. She later admitted to pretending to be asleep on the couch while he kissed me in the kitchen. She was there to protect me but she said we were both adults and it was our choice to do that. Fast- Forward. Months later. I had stopped being friends with Mark because of what happened, but because of this he stopped letting his children (both teenagers) come to my house and I was a great asset to them. So I started talking to him again and his kids were allowed to come over and go to the gym with me. Hika seen this as me and Mark were continuing the affair and when I went to his sons baseball game with him, she TOLD! She came to my house! And then told my boyfriend all about the night. And the two other night on top of that. Thats when me and David broke up (for two days). He came back around after I told him the whole truth and nothing but the truth so help me GOD. We have spent a long time working on the relationship. I told Mark that I could never talk to him again. And I haven't. I got tested for STD's and thank God I was clean. Now for the kicker... My boyfriend used humor to get over the whole ordeal and it really hurt me. Every time we would see Mark outside he would make comments about him that were of the bullying type (go get your boyfriend, or you should go ask him to come over here to talk) and it didn't stop. Finally one night he said something in front of my friend and I just came inside! I was so mad at him and my friend even told him that was uncalled for. So another month passes and he continued until one night. He was at his friends house drinking. Let me restate that. He was at his SINGLE friends house who happened to be a GIRL drinking ALONE with her. So I told him point blank, "David, this is a bad idea, I trust you but I don't trust her, get yourself OUT OF THERE before something bad happens!" He was like, oh hunny, we are fine. Nothings going to happen! Your overreacting! The next day he came to my house and admitted to it! He slept with her! I gave him a harsh talking to but deep down, I felt better. i knew we were even now. I knew he couldn't bad mouth me anymore for what I had did to him. No more bullying! So we made an agreement. We would never hurt eachother ever again by being unfaithful. He still complains though when he sees a pretty girl saying I got to sleep with Mark three times and he only got a one night stand. But i highly doubt he will pick up the other two "freebies" without some serious consequences. So to conclude, yes. If you both are willing to work on things...or at least if you are willing to even the score!
(Just kidding)
