Then the shocking revelation of her infidelity jolted me out of my own surrealism. She demanded alimony even though she cheated.
I begged her for mercy but she continued to hold me at ransom for years brandishing the women's charter like an entitlement over me. To her I was a spare tyre, ready to be dispensed with at any time.
Suicide was an option for years until the wee hours of that fateful night when I sat by the roadside crying. Seeing the dreadful sight of a grown man in tears must've spurred that person to engage me in conversation. Like Abbé Faria to Edmond Dantes, he showed me that there is life in the path of darkness that can illuminate my pathetically narrow views. It was through him I learnt about the avenues to seek what I perceived as forbiddened.
And that was how I came to know about Sammy Boy forum.
You asked why men cheated... I guess I offered some fresh perspectives to you.

I'm sorry for your bad experience bro. In a way I kind of understand why people would cheat. Watching my parents in a dead marriage for years is depressing. No cheating was involved but just two people changing from lovers to strangers doesn't seem to justify loyalty to me. Although that doesnt mean cheating is a good choice to make. All actions have consequences both good and bad. Wish you, ts, and other bros here all the best
