I thought I knew my wife until that night that was unbelievable to me. She always likes to go out in the evenings with a group of friends, saying it's to relax. I didn't think much of it, after all, everyone has their own space.
That day, one of her friends called me and said that he saw her with a strange man. I couldn't believe my ears, did she betray me? But I kept my cool and decided to talk to her first.
As soon as she got home, she explained to me that the man was just one of her colleagues and that they were just discussing work. She also blamed the friend for being nosy and told me not to believe the rumors. Although I had some doubts, I chose to trust her.
However, in the days that followed, I began to notice something that was not right. She always avoids me when she picks up, and often finds excuses to work overtime or hang out with friends. I began to wonder if she was really cheating on me.
Finally one day, I found some text messages in her phone, proving that she was in a relationship with the man. My heart was like a knife, and I roared, "Why are you doing this to me? She was speechless, just silently weeping.
I don't know what to do in the face of such a blow. Is it to divorce or forgive her? I sat on the edge of the bed, wondering if there was any chance of salvage for our relationship. I knew I had to face that fact, but I also knew I couldn't give up on our marriage so easily.
So, I decided to have a frank conversation with her. I told her that I could forgive her for her mistakes, but that we had to work together to repair our marriage. She burst into tears and promised me that I would cherish our relationship.
Since then, our marriage has become more intimate. We have learned to listen to each other, to be honest with each other, and not to let lies break our trust. While the process is painful, we know that only through honest communication can our marriage be stronger.
