“My ex husband was an abusive alcoholic. I left him and moved across the country to be with family. My husband's ex wife was a complete slut-and was a drunk who had run off with other guys a lot, leaving my husband and their two year old home alone on holidays, she was just the worst. At the time I w…”— Goldcoinsandsleet, reddit.com
“I did and I'm now married to the other person. We are very happy. Our respective kids are happy and they all get along. My parents love my new husband and his parents love me. So yeah, so far it's all good. My only regret is that I stayed in an unhappy marriage for far too long”— debbie_upper, reddit.com
“Marriage was already over, just not officially separated and out of the house. She was a friend I was fooling around with, and when I moved out, it didn't stop. It developed into a relationship a few months later and here we are a year and a half later. She's moved in and we're quite happy. I guess…”— epileptrick, reddit.com
“Was in a horrible marriage with a man who abused both me and our child. I met another man who made me realize my child and I deserved better. Left my abusive husband for him and we are currently married with 4 children. Not proud of how I handled the whole thing, but when beaten down and feeling lik…”— weedle_weedle, reddit.com
“I was married for a couple of years when I left my wife. The relationship I had with my wife was that of a friendship. There was no chemistry and no sex. The woman that I left her for had her own complications. So how did this work out? I will answer that in two ways. First, it sped up a divorce tha…”— Dontjudgemeforever, reddit.com
“I was married to my wife for 21 years and had two wonderful daughters. I was seriously unhappy for the last 11 or 12 years of the marriage and she never saw it, everyone else did but not her. It came to a head when my mother asked me one day when I was going to leave her because I was way too young…”— IdahoPatMan, reddit.com
“The other person and I are married and couldn't be happier. We both came from unhealthy/dead marriages. I do regret how the whole separation/divorce went with my ex but I never regretted leaving and I never will even if things between my now husband and me shouldn't work out.”— andthentherewerefour, reddit.com
“Backstory: My ex and I were best friends for 12 years, dated for 8. We weren't married because it was illegal at the time (gayyyyyy). Near the end of our relationship I did actually ask her to marry me because it was becoming legal in some states. Her response was to write me a letter, telling me sh…”— AskMe_If_ICare, reddit.com
“I got married young at 19, to someone I had been with for a year but friends with throughout school. The marriage was not the best thought out idea (we were both quite immature teenagers who absolutely believed we were the most mature two people on the planet. Hindsight.) though we got along really…”— mtwtfssrepeat, reddit.com
“Met my wife online, married 14 years. She left me because marriage was getting stale as well. Left me, my son and daughter (her biological children, my stepchildren). Held on as long as I could in the house we rented because we had 6 dogs at the time. My children, in time, moved in with their mom be…”— mcatech, reddit.com
“I left an abusive lazy fiance (I was 21 then) for a man who was 59. I saw he had something of interest to me for sale online. I rode my motorbike 120kms to pick up the item one night. He greeted me at the doorway and I found him very attractive! (A sort of thrashed out Matthew McConaughey)... he was…”— Rideronthestorm27, reddit.com
“I was in a bad marriage, wasn't abusive; but toxic and controlling. We didn't agree a lot on things, no similar hobbies, I couldn't spend time with family or friends without him getting jealous. Not to justify what I did, but our marriage was dead. I met someone online through a gaming forum and we…”— Inmysguin, reddit.com
“Marriage was stale, living parallel lives, blah blah blah. Ran into "the one that got away" on FB. Chatting led to flirting led to a tryst in a city between us. It was meant to be a once-and-done, to get it out of our system. What we didn't plan on was falling in love. Knowing I'd want to see her ag…”— Scrappy_Larue, reddit.com
“I left my wife for someone who I felt was my best friend. We tried living together and it was a complete disaster. All I did was compare her to my wife, in retrospect I regret all of it. The emotional toll is something you cannot fully express. A bad situation like that never has any chance of worki…”— ELMachoMetro, reddit.com
“Oral sex is amazing, but I usually have to give out the same pointers. 1: It's not a sandwich; think of it more like an ice cream. 2: It is much easier for me to cum if I am confident that he is not bored and is prepared to go on as long as necessary. Paranoia about elusive orgasms only makes them m…”— kittybot, reddit.com
