I’ll say it right at the top. I cheated on my husband, and I’m not entirely sure why I cheated on my husband. Writing things out has been therapeutic for me in the past, and I had planned to post this on some sort of advice related subreddit (relationship_advice, or maybe surviving infidelity.) However, once I wrote it out, my accounting of events is a lot closer to rambling erotica than it is to an advice post. I don’t have anyone to talk to in my personal life about this, and I feel like I need to get it off my chest somewhere so I’m posting here. Sorry if infidelity offends you.
If you had asked me a month, or even two weeks ago how my marriage is going, I’d have told you that it’s amazing. We have a good work/home balance, do things together regularly, and we have sex at least two times a week, very often more than that. I have no explanation for what I did that has any relation to my marriage whatsoever.
