Welcome to R slash relationships, where O.P.'s wife leaves him and instantly regrets it. Our next Reddit post is from Throwaway Upset Girlfriend. I'm a 20-year-old woman, and my brother Darren is 26.

My brother and I think that our partners are cheating on us with each other. I've been dating my boyfriend Cole for a year now, and my brother recently started dating Sage about a month ago. We still live with our mom, as I still go to school, and my older brother helps with Bills and our younger brother. Cole moved in with us at the end of November last year. It started just as him staying over on weekends, then his stays just got progressively longer, and eventually he just started staying over every night. He's currently also in school, but online, and he helps around the house with cleaning and cooking and that kind of stuff.

He's very good with my younger brother, and they have a brotherly bond as well. Sage has been staying over for the past like three or four weeks shortly after my brother and her started dating. She took some time off work to come stay over for a few weeks. She lives more than three hours away. She's a nice girl, super easy to talk and joke around with. My boyfriend and I are honestly a little startled by how outgoing she is, since we're a little more shy and our introverts. She's already met our extended family as well,

and she fits right in with us and everyone adores her. Now to the main topic. When Sage first came over, we were all told by my mom to come and make her feel welcomed and comfortable, so we were out in the living room or kitchen most of the week playing games and having fun when we weren't doing school or work. Over the first week, we've gotten more comfortable with her, including my boyfriend. She and my boyfriend have been the only one's home alone when everyone else was at work or school. One night, when I woke up in the middle of the night, Cole wasn't in bed and didn't come back for a while. I didn't think anything of it and went back

to bed after a while, and the next day the four of us were in the living room together. Darren, Sage, Cole, and I. We were talking and joking around, and I brought up the fact that he was gone for a while and asked where he went last night. He claimed he just went to the bathroom, but then Darren also asked Sage the same thing. They were both gone for long periods of time that night. Sage looked at Darren and laughed and apologized and said that she got a call from her friend and went outside to talk to her in the car. She then said to Darren, I'll let you know next time if she calls again. We moved on after that. The next thing that happened that's made us truly question things was this morning when I was dropping my younger brother off for school. My younger brother

asked Cole and I to keep it down when we were doing it because he couldn't really sleep last night. He went on all about how he didn't need to hear his older sister getting some, and he wished that we didn't share a wall. Now, this could have been a valid concern if it was me, but it wasn't. I went to my cousin's house to hang out for for the evening and didn't come back home until about 2 a.m. Cole and I didn't do anything. He was already sleeping by the time I came back. Yeah, I bet he was.

Also, Cole and I are always, always mindful about the fact that my younger brother's room is on the other side of the wall. So, who was my boyfriend screwing in my own bid when I wasn't there? Well, after my younger brother voiced his disgust, I just said, okay, yeah, sorry about that. It won't happen again. and I dropped him off at school. I immediately texted Darren and asked him if Sage left any time during the night. And he said that at about midnight, she went to go talk with her friend again. I told Darren about

what our little brother told me, and Darren said that we would talk about it after work. So we went about the day, and when we came home, I went to Darren's car and we talked for a long time. Darren told me that Sage had been talking to her friend almost every night. We compared every little thing that we might have brushed off as nothing, but then it all clicked, or so we think. These are the two big incidents that happened, but there are more. We need advice or an outside perspective on these incidents and what we should do. Does this sound like cheating? Or are we just overthinking idiots with trust issues, lull? Then one week later, OP posted an update. So yeah, they were definitely sleeping together. But first, I just want to say a quick thank you to everyone who replied to my last

post. Darren and I read through them all and laughed at a few. Some of y'all are crazy. Darren told me to say that to those of you who suggested that I sleep with my brother, he says, sorry, but we aren't from Alabama. Anyways, so like I said, the two damn cheaters were sleeping together in our family house. The night after I posted, we thought about putting cameras up as the top comment suggested. But then we decided for me to just go through Cole's phone, so I did. They've been texting since we first met her. So basically, the day she got here. It looked like it was a normal conversation at first. Then the messages would be like, my partner's gone asleep. Want to come to the room or meet in the bathroom? Or that was fun, winky face. Just flirty texts like that. So that pretty much

confirmed it. But then, as if that wasn't enough, I saw Sage ask Cole, can you send that video? I want to see it. And he sent the video of them doing it. I watched the video because, well, I'm an idiot who likes to hurt her own feelings, and it was bad. He was recording from behind, and she was calling him kinky names and kept saying, Am I better than O.P. Daddy? Or something along those lines. In my bid. To be honest, it was pretty funny watching it because he wouldn't answer her when she would ask, which I assume is why she kept saying it. It hurts seeing my boyfriend of a year going at it with another girl, of course. but what can I do about something that's already happened many times?

So I sent the video to myself and didn't bother deleting the evidence and I sent it to my brother. That same night we confronted them and they both denied it at first, then I showed them the video that I'd sent to myself. Then that's when they both started crying and apologizing. I've never had to deal with a cheater in real life, let alone too, but man, it's pathetic when they get caught. I literally had to hold back a laugh when Cole started to start. started crying because why are you the one crying when I'm the victim?

I don't know. Darren told Sage she's kicked out and he didn't care where she went. She tried to say that she had nowhere to go and brought up that she lived three hours away and that he picked her up so she has no car either. Darren said he didn't care and needed her out within the hour, that it was one thing to go behind his back, but hurting me was a big no-no. I love protective older brothers. So he kicked her out and And I told Cole that he had to leave too. He tried to ask if we could talk about it that we shouldn't let this ruin our year-long relationship, using all the cheater excuses there are.

And I just told him that I was done with him, so they both left. Did they meet up after? Probably. Do I care? No. He didn't have a job or a car. And he even stated that he doesn't really want a job either. He lives off his daddy's money. It's embarrassing for me that I was with him for so long. So if they wanted to even try to make that work, she'd have to deal with that.

Not my problem anymore. After they left, that's when I cried and let it out, and Darren comforted me. He even cried a bit himself. Cole has tried DMing me on Instagram, but I just leave him on scene. Sage even DM'd me too, apologizing and asking if I could tell Darren to call her. So that's what happened. Thanks Reddit for your kind words and advice. We both appreciate it a lot.

And Darren definitely learned his lesson on moving too fast in relationships, loll. I saw a comment I like that said that every single time one of the messages you, just reply with the video they made. Our next Reddit post is from Throwaway Another 2. My wife and I have been in a relationship for just over 2 and a half years, married 6 months. My wife cheated on me two months ago and was planning to divorce me for the affair partner. I only found out about the affair partner last week. I thought the divorce talks were just personal failings of mine and stuff I needed to work on. She moved out earlier this week, which she framed as a trial separation before divorce,

and we've kept in low contact since then. However, we had a mental check-in to see how we're doing tonight since things were kind of messy during the last days. Turns out, Affair partner is not so good now that I know about the affair, and there's not any adrenaline anymore. He keeps talking about how he's been with better women and how he could still pull better women. She regrets leaving and wants to end things with him and work on our marriage again. As things are, we're currently planning on working it out. I said that I still wanted to work it out after I discovered the affair and before she moved

out. I'm okay with the concept of non-monogamy. We had long-term plans to open up sometime next year and eventually hope for a triad down the line. For me, it's more so the matter that it happened before we agreed on officially opening, and it was with a person who I said at the very first discussion was on my no list. Yes, a boundary was crossed, but we both needed to work on a lot. Yeah, I have an individual therapy appointment set up for Tuesday to work on myself mentally, and also why I'm more okay with everything than I thought I'd be.

Yeah, we'll be getting couples counseling if we do end up getting back together. So we both want to give it a go again, but everything's kind of, of messed up now that she officially moved out. Since her original plan was that they were going to get in a relationship after our divorce, the affair partner is a co-signer on her lease. They spent $8,000 on furniture for her and their new apartment, and he was going to be paying for part of her rent. If she tried to break things off with him, he has a key, could take all the furniture back, and she wouldn't be able to pay for the rent on her own. And that's just on the logistics side. The main part that I'm mentally stuck on is they hooked up three times total before she moved out.

They went up to four times three days after she moved out. After she told me she wants to work things out, she got high, and then it went up again to five times total. We agreed on giving her a month to end the situation with him and tell him that she wants to work things out with me. But she's also said there's a chance that that number could still go up again before that month ends. Because she still has no idea how to end things with him, since he's so involved in the new apartment. Yo, what am I reading? Part of me understands that, but part of me is also very not okay with that. More stuff to work on in therapy.

I know most of the advice I'm probably going to get is leave her, but at least currently, we both want to make it work. Any advice on what to do going forward would be appreciated. Mainly ways that she could end things with him and ways that we could begin to mend to trust. I mean, I feel like step one is to not sleep with a guy anymore. You know, because breaking up with a guy and then riding him are kind of like opposites. Because, you know, breaking up with a guy and then boinking him are kind of incompatible. Then 11 months later, OP posted an update. Dang, I was deep in the denial stage when I wrote part one, huh?

I was already in therapy at that point, as some comments suggested, but was still quite early into it. I was still really desperate to save a relationship that I should have given up on way earlier. It's wild to read that now and see what I was willing to let myself be put through. And then seeing how much I still let myself be put through after the initial post. Well, I'm happy to report that I finally gave up. It still took me way longer than it should have to pull the plug, but the plug has been pulled. We had a final talk in December where I finally said that enough was enough. We'd already filed for divorce at that point, and we're just waiting for the court date.

And currently, we're four months past our divorce being officially finalized. I do have some fun details that I could get into, like how her affair partner apparently has two other side chicks besides her. How my ex and affair partner were planning a trip to Vegas while she was telling me that she was going to actually take time to herself. Or how she keeps breaking no contact post-divorce to ask if I'm starting some drama or another to just scratch the surface. But there's kind of not really a point to going into that. I'm in a significantly better relationship now with someone who actually values me,

and not the money that I could spend on her. And now I get to have dates where we make Pokemon teams for characters in the D&D podcast that we both listen to. Like, there's not really a point into getting into all the foolishness with my ex because I'm in an objectively happier situation now. And frankly, it wouldn't be worth the brain power to reopen those. I'd much rather spend that energy thinking about my new girlfriend. This just feels like the final line to write in the story between me and my ex, so I'm writing it so I can permanently close it. The top comment is,

The best revenge is living well, my friend, and then the reply beneath that. And knowing that she got cheated on by her own affair partner, that has to raise a smile. If he'll cheat with her, he'll cheat on her. Our next Reddit post is from Empty Technology. Over the holidays, I visited my parents. I noticed my mom's breath was a little, well, it smelled like literal poop. I sat next to her in the car on the way to dinner one night,

and the smell of literal poop filled up the car so much that my eyes were watering. She visited me last month, and the smell had gotten even worse. I asked my sister, who also visited my mother recently if she noticed, and my sister confirmed that she did. My sister says that our mom must know because the smell is overwhelming, and surely her husband or co-workers must have mentioned it to her. But I'm not so sure. My mom always likes to dress well. She never leaves the house without a full face of makeup and a nice outfit, so I can't imagine she would be okay with this stuff if she knew. I'm certain that she would at least have a purse full of breathments and mouthwash that she carried everywhere with her if she couldn't solve the underlying problem. I'm afraid my mom will think that I'm just being mean if I bring it up. But she has a professional job in an office, and I'm afraid that this isn't the best way to present herself,

and that she might be grateful to have an opportunity to fix it if she still actually believes me. Yo, if your own family isn't going to tell you that you have turd breath, who is your co? worker, your boss? That sounds like a sexual harassment HR issue. Someone please tell this lady that she has turd breath so she can go see some kind of medical professional. I once encountered someone with turd breath and I still vividly remember it like five years later. The smell where I was, the temperature, what the guy was wearing, it was like it was like seared into my brain. It was so like, I don't say traumatizing. That's kind of an extreme word. It just, it was so disgusting that it like created a flashbulb memory for me. So I can't even imagine how her coworkers feel about it.

That was our slash relationships. And if you like this content, be sure to follow my podcast because I put out new Reddit podcast episodes every single day.
