Ya'll is describing some of the scum of the earth when it comes to females- I guess I could be included in that.
I can see how most of you would say that for men cheating is a physical thing and that for the women it's emotional. There might be something to that.
My ass did wrong. I know I did. I let go of the best thing I ever had, the only person that I truly loved, over some bitchass emotions. What makes it worse it was shortly after the birth of our child. I had been trying to figure out why I became such a horrible person bent on destroying my family- that was until I had to try to take a moment to understand my feelings. I didn't want to cheat- it wasn't like I woke up that morning and was like "Im'ma go fuck some other dude." Women only do that shit to be spiteful; I ain't that chick. The feelings that I had during my infidelities weren't really feelings. I felt remorse and guilt for what I did/was doing but as far a feelings towards the other person, it wasn't there. I came to the realization this morning that perhaps, (because I had just had a child), that it had to do with postpartum depression.
Now some of you might think that is a fucking cop out- cheat and not take responsibility for your actions, but blame it on something/someone else. I'm not like that. I fess up to what I did; I hurt people and I am not proud. I've been depressed before and probably the reason why I didn't notice it was because this was a different type of depression. One that wasn't centered on the daily chemical functions of my brain but had to do with my chemical imbalance as a woman. I say this because for some of the women you men may encounter, even if they do wrong, sometimes we have no reason why we act because we don't understand ourselves and everything that comes with it. No one is perfect, and I am the last to admit that I am. But sometimes it takes time for a woman to deal with things to figure out what it is she is dealing with.
Now I don't have all of the answers as to why women cheat. I still don't understand how men can cheat and then catch their girl and then loose faith in all women. But if there is some real love in that relationship with time and some talk the two of you should be able to make it to the root of the problem and try to rebuild something that was destroyed. At least I hope that.
Think of me what you will- whether its another bitch trying to justify her actions or someone who really sounds as though she has learned her lesson. I don't care. The only truths I know is that I hold one man in my heart and I always will. My pussy does not rule me like a dick rules a man. Some of you got bored with married sex- I wait for it. My cheating wasn't about having sex with another, (before that I had only had sex with one person), it was about running away from my home life. But why would I want to run away from something I had worked seven years to build? The only explanation I can give is that I was not in my right mind. Having been depressed-severely depressed- before my cheating period was on another level of depression because I felt dead inside. I couldn't understand how I could feel dead but still feel remorseful. I guess it's because being a cheater like I was at that time isn't who I am. Because I have never sought psychiatric help either before or after my pregnancy there was no way for me or anyone else to tell what was wrong with me; I just looked grimy.
I know when you catch your girl cheating you hurt. But for some chicks, they hurt to. Maybe I'm an exception; I don't know. But if I could do it all over again, I would and keep my family together. I was too stupid or blind and confused to realize that I had the best man willing to be with me in my life, and I fucked that up. I'm personally hoping that he will one day try to forgive me so that I can make it up to him. Or to begin to try to make it up to him, and my child. I have no right to ask you for anything but having an explanation for my confusions and knowing why I had mixed feelings at the time makes me confident in knowing I can be a better person. I think that if I had another child, even if I experienced postpartum depression again the same thing would not happen because I know what it feels like now.
