The past year had been filled with stolen glances and secret rendezvous, but never had I thought that this would be the way it would all end.
I had been married to my wife for over 10 years and never had any indication that she was suspicious of my actions. We had a good life and things were going well, or so I thought.
Suspected I was cheating, got a PI to find out
Little did I know that my wife had been keeping tabs on me and had even hired a private investigator to follow me and document my movements.
When the private investigator informed her of my mistress’s identity and that I had been meeting with her regularly, my wife came up with a plan to confront me and my mistress.
She asked her to come to our house and when my mistress arrived, my wife was ready with a speech to expose our affair.
My mistress was horrified, but I could tell that she was also relieved that the truth was finally out. Despite the shock that she was feeling, she still had the courage to confront my wife and ask her why she had chosen this particular way to reveal the truth.
My wife calmly replied that she wanted to be sure that I was aware of the consequences of my actions and that I would be held accountable for the pain that I had caused her.
Got me to choose between them
My wife then made me choose between my mistress or her.
The answer was obvious, no matter how much I was fooling around outside, I still will choose my family that I have built up over the years.
With that, my mistress took her leave and as I watched her go, I knew that this was the end of our relationship. I had hurt my wife, and I had hurt my mistress. I had broken my own heart in the process and I was not sure if I would ever be able to forgive myself for my mistakes.
My wife and I spent the rest of the evening in silence, both of us unable to process what had just happened. I knew that I had broken her trust and that our marriage would never be the same again.
I had betrayed her and my mistress, and the guilt was almost too much to bear.
I had been so consumed by my desire for something more that I had completely forgotten about the people I was hurting in the process.
I had caused so much pain and suffering to my wife and my mistress, and my marriage was as good as over. I had let my own selfishness and desires take over my life and there was no going back.
