I knew our marriage wasn’t perfect, but I didn’t expect my longtime husband to find someone younger to cheat on me with. When the truth came out, I tried fighting for my marriage but only emboldened his mistress. Luckily for me, the universe had MY back!
I, Emma, 45, had always prided myself on being a good wife. For fifteen long years, I was the woman who stood by her husband through thick and thin. I was the one who put his needs before mine, who forgave his occasional lapses. But even the strongest walls have their cracks, and mine started to show when I noticed the subtle changes in his behavior.

He had late nights at the office that became more frequent, his phone was glued to his hand as he sent sneaky texts, and the once tender affection between us felt like a distant memory. My husband also started caring a lot about his looks.
He’d constantly ask me before leaving for work, “Em, does this shirt suit me? Does it make my belly look bigger?”
