16 Quotes About Cheating To Remind You That TRUST Is EARNED
Cheating is never worth it.
Being cheated on sucks. We can ALL agree on that one. No one deserved to be cheated on. It doesn't matter if you and your man have been together for six weeks or six months; a lot of women blame themselves when they get cheated on.
It is easy to think that you have done something to "scare" your boyfriend away. He might have told you that you were being too clingy or that he didn't feel like the two of you were having sex often enough.
Whatever story he spins to excuse his actions, remember this: he is trying to make HIMSELF look like the victim, in turn placing the blame on YOU, and getting him off the hook for cheating.
Adults are capable of making their own decisions, which means taking responsibility for the good AND the bad in your life. Us women are strong and bad ass. We can survive anything, including an unfaithful relationship.
If your significant other can't respect you or your relationship, the only things that should be going through your mind are: ditching the zero, lots of Ben & Jerry's, some serious girl time, and flirting with a new guy.
We all have our own ways of coping. It can be truly devastating to find out that your partner is going behind your back and throwing away your future for a quick fling. Whether your coping style is building a cocoon in your bed for the next month or handing out your digits to guys like they were free samples, remember that a cheater doesn't define you.
You can move on with a clear conscious; sooner or later his bad decisions will catch up with him. But by the time that happens, you'll be the successful, happy goddess of your own life, surrounded by people who have your back no matter what.
And THAT is why you are so much better than your loser ex made you out to be. So, keep workin' it, girl.
