I hope you enjoy this story. Accidentally had an intimate encounter with my sister's spouse, leading to the ruin of her marriage and our relationship. I, a 29-year-old woman, am now facing a complex and challenging predicament that has put a strain on me. Relationship with my sister, 31F. I recently slept with her husband, and now she refuses to speak to me. However, I genuinely believe that I am not solely to blame for the fallout, and I need an impartial judgment on my. whether I am the asshole in this scenario. Prior to the incident, I noticed some questionable behavior from my brother-in-law, 33m, towards me, feeling concerned about my sister's well-being,

I decided to address the issue with her. However, she dismissed my concerns, leaving me unsure of how to proceed. My sister works as a flight attendant and is gone more than she is at home. My bill recently lost his job and was feeling depressed. During one of her frequent absences from home, she asked me to keep her husband company. She trusted me and didn't believe the warnings that I gave her before about his behavior towards me, but I saw this as an opportunity to support their marriage and help them rebuild their connection. Unfortunately, as we spent more time together, our bond deepened, and we eventually crossed

a line that should never have been crossed. We had both been drinking and he was complaining to me about. about the troubles in their marriage and how he hasn't been for a while. He was crying and I decided to comfort him. One thing lead to another and we did the unthinkable. I woke up realizing the nature of what I did and immediately realized the nature of what had happened. We both were so intoxicated that we stupidly ended up falling all seep. I awoke to my sister screaming and hitting the both of us screaming. How could you do this to me? Were sisters I trusted you? She wouldn't even give me a chance to explain and kick me out of the house.

Now, my sister refuses to speak to me. She has filed for divorce. Our parents are siding with her saying that I violated every family moral. However, I believe that there are multiple factors at play here, and I am not the only one responsible for the breakdown of their marriage. While I acknowledge my mistake, I also question why my sister failed to address the issues in her relationship and why she left her husband in my care without setting clear boundaries. I do feel a sense of guilt and remorse for my actions, but I also recognize that my sister and her husband had their fair share of problems. It's unfair to place all the blame on me when there were underlying issues that existed long before our involvement. That being said,

I understand my sister's anger and hurt. I am willing to accept responsibility for my actions and make amends, but I also believe that it is crucial for her to acknowledge her role in this situation. Rebuilding trust and repairing our relationship will require open and honest communication from both parties. In sharing my story, I hope for an unbiased judgment and guidance on how to navigate this difficult situation. Ida for sleeping with my sister's husband. Edit screenshots of my last conversation with her before she blocked me on my profile. Update 1. Okay guys, I get it. You guys have ripped me apart in the comments and yeah, I admit I messed up. After deeply reflecting on my actions and seeking advice from others,

I have come to realize the extent of the hurt and damage I caused to my sister. I genuinely regret my behavior and am now fully aware that I was in the wrong. There's no excuse for what I did and I think I was trying to excuse my actions because the thought of it always too painful. Last night after reading comments, I mustered up the courage to reach out and apologize to my sister. Unfortunately, despite my sincere efforts, she has not only refused to speak to me but has also blocked me from all forms of communication. The fact that my sister has taken such measures is deeply upsetting to me. I yearn for her forgiveness and genuinely want her back in my life. However, I understand that I cannot force her to reconcile or forgive me on my terms.

I have sought advice from friends and family on how to navigate this situation, but it seems like the best course of action for now is to respect her boundaries and give her the space she clearly needs. I have continued to reflect on my actions and have sought therapy to address the underlying issues that led to my hurtful behavior. I found some online and plan on calling soon to get started up to help figure out the route for my behavior. I am committed to personal growth and becoming a better person, regardless of whether or not my sister chooses to reconnect with me in which I will never give up trying. I have also reached out to mutual friends and family members, hoping they might act as intermediaries or offer support in bridging the gap between us. However, I understand

that they too must respect my sister's boundaries and not get involved in our personal dispute. My ex-bill has refused to pick up any of my phone calls through all of this. I heard from my mother that he told her I initiated the entire thing and got him drunk then forced myself onto him, which is the furthest thing from the truth. I can't believe he'd threw me under the bus after I was there for him for so long. Yes, I really look like the fool, huh? The pain of not being able to communicate with my sister is devastating,

but I am determined to learn from my mistakes and make amends in any way possible. I will continue to work on myself and strive to become someone who deserves her forgiveness, even if it takes a significant amount of time. To say the past few months has been insane is an understatement. I feel like my entire world has caved in. While I hold on to hope that one day my sister will be willing to reopen the lines of communication,

I also acknowledge the possibility that she may never want to speak to me again. Regardless, I will continue to grow, learn, and reflect on my actions, knowing that healing and reconciliation are processes that cannot be rushed or forced. I hope my sister sees my remorse and my effort to grow. I will update if anything further happens. comments where Op has replied. Use slash medical underscore caller underscore 2,678 says, Your logic is their relationship was already failing

so your sister should take responsibility. Let me ask you a question using your own logic. Let's say your car is older and need some work done. If I come up and steal your car GTA style, and I total it, would you be at fall for the crash because the car was already failing or would it be me because I'm the one that took it and couldn't control the car and crashed.

See how dumb that sounds? If it was failing, then your job was to help your sister get through this and guide her towards counseling or a divorce. Instead, you guided your way into his pants. I think it's more to the story and the more to the story is you had feelings for the bill for a while and this drunk behavior made you act on it.

You give off golden child energy in which you've rarely been held accountable. Oh, and if my comment wasn't clear enough, Oda. Oop, I understand what you're saying. It makes sense. Com underscore Froyo underscore 475. This has to be a troll post-rage bait. Oop, how am I baiting?

Do you need to see screenshots between my sister and I? I feel bad. Yes. My point. I shouldn't be completely at fault here. I'm not trying to be a victim. Oop, Lindsay, I'm extremely sorry. I haven't been able to eat, sleep or function since this has all happened.

Regardless of you believing it's been ongoing. It's only happened once. I take full responsibility for my part. I should have distanced from him when he was making advances before I should have pressed it more. I shouldn't have given in. I was intoxicated. I wouldn't have done it sober. I take responsibility for it.

I just feel that responsibility needs. needs to be taken that it was already failing. You should have left him a long time ago or even believe me when I tried to tell you. Oops, sister, are you kidding me? You're always the victim, Kelly, always. You can never take responsibility for your actions. I swear you could hit someone with a car walking on a dom sidewalk and you'd still argue it was their fault too for not moving. You betrayed me. You're right. I stupidly didn't believe you because I would was in denial about my marriage, but I never thought that you would do this to me ever. I helped raise you.

I was there for you whenever you needed me. I forgave you for the upbringing we had with you always being the favorite. You cannot handle the fact that Mom and Dad are siding with me for once. I never want to see you again. You are no longer my sister. O.P., I am sorry. I never meant to hurt you. I am not trying to play the victim at all.

I take responsibility. But why am I getting the most heat here? He's just as at fault. All I am saying is that you should have left him or been actively trying to fix the relationship or it wouldn't have gotten this far. But that still does not excuse my behavior. I am the worst. I just don't understand why I get the most heat.

Oops, sister, because you are my sister. Men come and go. I am not going back and forth. Have a good life being the that you are. Final update. Why you guys are ruthless. I fully see that I was in the wrong and my behavior is inexcusable. I do not deserve to have her as a sister and I am literally a piece of crap.

There's not a single insult you guys can give me, that I haven't given myself. Surprisingly, my sister unblocked me, expressing her desire for closure and personal healing. It seems that she has reached a point where she needs to address. the past in order to move forward, but she has made it clear that she doesn't wish to continue our relationship. We had an open and honest discussion about the pain and hurt that had accumulated over time. It was an emotional and challenging conversation, but one that allowed us to express our feelings and seek some form of closure. During our conversation, my sister made it clear that she has made the difficult decision to no longer have a relationship with me. She explained

that she needs to focus on her own healing and well-being, and believes that she has been a difficult decision. maintaining a relationship with me would hinder that process. It was a heartbreaking realization for me to accept, but I understand and respect her choice. In our conversation, I took the opportunity to sincerely apologize for any pain I have caused her. I acknowledged my past mistakes and expressed deep regret for my actions. While I had hoped for a different outcome, I understand that my sister's healing journey is her own to navigate, and it may not involve me. Moving forward, I will continue to reflect on the lessons learned from this experience. I have come to understand the impact of my actions and the importance of personal growth and self-reflection. It is crucial for me to learn

from this and strive to become a better person, even if it means accepting that my sister wants no further relationship with me. While it is painful to accept the loss of a close bond, I will honor my sister's wishes and give her the space she needs to heal and move forward. I will continue to work on myself, seeking personal growth and understanding, and ensuring that I do not repeat the mistakes of the past. This experience has taught me the importance of empathy, forgiveness, and respecting the boundaries of others. I am grateful for the opportunity to have had this conversation with my sister, as it has allowed me to gain a deeper understanding of the consequences of my actions and the importance of growth and healing and relationships. This will likely be my last update as there's nothing more to say. I lost my sister and the respect of the people closest to me.

But through all of that she is the victim, not me. I deserve this. Now on to the next story. Story 2. Discovered that my fiancé of eight years cheated on me with escorts. I, 30F, and my fiancé, 30M. I can't believe I even had to write that sentence out. We have been together eight years, engaged for six months.

We have had problems connecting lately due to a host of underlying issues, his drug and alcohol problems and I dealt with seasonal effective disorder over the winter. A week ago we went on a trip to get away and rekindle our love blah, blah, blah, blah, and I thought we were getting on the right track. However, since we got back, both nights he stayed out past 3 a.m., on a work night, and I've had my suspicions that he started doing coke again which he promised me he wouldn't. So I snooped, I know, his computer eye messages because they're sync up with his phone messages. And yes, he was texting with his dealer and sending

picks of him doing coke to his friend Greg. But then I noticed the text to Greg were weird, like hard emojis and I miss you so I kept scrolling and there were all these explicit texts and him telling this girl he loves her. Obviously Greg was a fake name and how much he despises me. And honestly all this shocking stuff, I still believe I'm in some kind of nightmare. He's been sending her thousands of dollars, and based off their conversations, she's not the only escort he's been sleeping with and he hasn't been using protection. The kicker is I've been helping him pay rent, and sending him money here and there because of cash flow issues with his business. And he has cash flow issues because of the prostitutes.

I don't know why I'm posting this here, maybe because I'm too embarrassed to confide in anyone I know. Maybe hoping to hear how other people have gotten through similar situations. He's going out of town next week for work aka to meet up with this escort and I'm planning on just moving out without saying anything. I also plan on telling his dad what's going on since it's his father's business and he's taking company money to pay for sex. I also think I should tell his dad about the drug abuse because he's going to kill himself with the path he's on.

Coke, Adderall, Xanax, booze, any other substances in the vicinity. I actually hate him to my core right now, but don't actually actually want him dead. Sorry for the stream of thought wall of text, it's just 3 a.m. and I can't sleep and I feel so blindsided and hoping if I ever fall asleep I'll wake up and this never happened. Comments where Opes replied, Big, Greg 72-88, damn that's pretty lowdown. You obviously know what needs to be done. Take a STD test to make sure you're clean and get rid of this guy. Eight years and he's sleeping with prostitutes and doing coke. He clearly, doesn't care about his life, don't let him ruin yours as well.

Oop, yep, getting tested is number one on my list to do. And thank you, I can't believe I wasted eight years for this to be the end. I can't have him ruin my life any longer. Big Greg 72.88 I hear you on the time wasting. Look at it as a lesson on what not to tolerate from now on. Oop true, definitely changing my ways moving forward, and at least we never went through with a wedding, thank you COVID. Update 1, February 11th, 2024.

This is an update to a post I made almost three years ago. Oh, wow, I had completely forgotten about this throwaway account I made and just stumbled back on it. As someone who hates when people don't provide updates, because I'm nosy, sorry I never provided one. Also rereading my prior post it sounds so fake I'm starting to realize half the crazy posts I think on Reddit are fake actually are probably real, LOL. Well. Anyways on to the updates nobody asked for, and honestly as it's been almost three years at this point it feels like a lifetime ago and I can't believe that was my life, so sorry if details are a little glossed over. For starters, in hindsight, finding out about the cheating was the best thing that ever happened to me. I have weird anxious thoughts about the alternative

timeline me who never discovered any of this and stayed in that relationship. After I found out, the next day I went and got STD testing, all clear, and the nurse was actually the first person I told about what happened. I immediately started the process of moving out, emailed landlords separately to let them know we would not be renewing, luckily we only had like two months left. Since he was leaving in a couple days to go out of town for work, I decided to just suck it up and play it cool till he left. Once he left I packed up all my stuff, hired a moving company to keep my things in storage until I figured out where I wanted to live, and booked a flight out to California to stay at a hotel on a beach with my dog, and I have family out there. I'm actually pretty close with my family, but I did this all on my own because I just wanted to process things on my own, and wanted to ugly cry in peace.

The day my ex was supposed to return to our apartment, I did end up contacting his parents to let them know what was up so they could meet him there, mainly because I was afraid he would do something drastic once he saw I was gone. I ended up staying in California for a couple of months with my sister, until I decided to move back to my city midsummer. I didn't love living out of a suitcase and wanted to make a new place for myself. After initially staying no contact, me and my ex did start texting again, was not healthy, and probably due to some level of codependency. He got into therapy and went sober, although he refused to go to AA or anything. The whole time he thought we would eventually get back together but I was adamant that we would never, although thought we could

be friends, L.O.L. Eventually we had to stop talking because he got pissed that everything he was doing wasn't making me want to get back together with him, and occasionally he would blame me for why he cheating in the first place, classic. Oh, and he started drinking again. T.W. for the next paragraph. The last straw was that fall. When he texted me he had drank a bottle of vodka, plus a full bottle of Xanax, and he'd see me in the next life. He ended up getting to the hospital on time, and after having his stomach pumped was fine, but this was a very traumatic event for me. After everything was handled, I blocked his number, probably should have happened from the start, but I'd codependency shit. That saga more or less ended back in November 2021,

so flash forward over two years later and some present-day updates. I'm a completely different person to where my family is shocked. I hadn't realized how much that relationship was affecting me negatively. I used to truly be a glass-half-empty person to the core, and now I'm so easy-going, happy, glass-half-full type of gal. And I lost like 40 pounds, not that losing weight is always a good thing but in my case it was. I'm 33 now, and to all the ladies. out there afraid of starting over in their 30s don't despair. I have been dating my amazing

boyfriend for two years now who is actually perfect for me. My ex and I were opposites, he was a chaotic wild card, grumpy, and really not a kind or considerate person, really embarrassed why I was dating a person like this. My current boyfriend is so chill, has such a calming presence, and is the kindest and most thoughtful person I've met. We have not had a single fight in the two years we've been together and are just very respectful of each other, something that at the core my last relationship lacked. My ex seems to be doing fine, hasn't changed much from what I hear through the grapevine, we don't really talk, but I wish him the best. Comments where Op has replied. Neanderbeast congratulations for getting free from him. Your ex will never change, it doesn't even

sound like he wants to change. Oop, thanks. I think at the end of the day as they say, people really don't change. Even myself, while I seem like a different person, I think I am the same at the core, just a happy version now that I'm not weighted down by all the stress and negativity of my prior relationship. But trap a bearclaw congrats on your new life. Can you tell us about how you met your current partner? Reddit says your last post was two years ago, so it's reading like you basically jumped into this relationship immediately after splitting with your ex. which obviously is whatever because it's worked out for you. But like you said, we nosy, LOL.

Oop the Reddit date is actually a little confusing. My last post was actually March 17th, 2021, worst St. Patrick's Day ever, LOL. So it should probably say three years once we get to that date. I first started dating again like six months later just to put myself out there. I had never done any of the online slash app dating as I had been with my ex since we met in college. I definitely was probably not emotionally ready when I started dating, but I also wasn't looking for anything serious. I ended up meeting my now boyfriend on Bumble a little while after that. I don't think either of us were looking for something serious. He was under the

impression he was moving for work. He ended up not moving, and I had just gotten out of this crazy long-term relationship. Because of that, we took things semi-slow at first, and then ended up becoming exclusive slash official February 2022.
