TW: Cheating

While I was at work today, I got a random message. It was my ex-gf’s co-worker sending me screenshots and voicemails of my gf telling her friends that she’s been sleeping with their boss for the last 2 months.

For context, my gf works in a BPO in Makati. I just feel so stupid I saw all the signs in front of me from her avoiding intimacy, not being home for days, and getting a yeast infection after her boss gave her extra pay.

I confronted her through call when I found out. She ended up telling me that I should take accountability as well. She claims that when she was with me she felt domesticated and she lost her sense of self. For context that issue started when I asked her to not wear revealing clothing when attending family events. Since my family to an extend is conservative Catholic. But other than family events, I don’t really care what she wears.

What’s even more crazy is that my ex gf is one of those people who label themselves as “Tibak” part of left leaning orgs. You’d expect that she’d have more principle but apparently not.

It is what it is. This is the second straight long term relationship I’ve been cheated on. Why is it so hard for people to just break up before hooking up with other people.
