Shownotes Transcript

The original poster asked for advice on how to deal with the discovery that his wife had an affair six years prior, which she only confessed to after he found evidence. The posters who responded to the original poster agreed that his wife's actions were unacceptable and that he was justified in feeling hurt and betrayed. The original poster's wife dismissed his feelings and claimed that the affair was no longer relevant, further infuriating the posters. There was also debate on whether or not the original poster's wife's behavior indicated a potential pattern of infidelity and whether or not she was truly remorseful for her actions. The conversation then shifted to a discussion about the nature of cheating and how people react to infidelity. Several posters also accused the wife of gaslighting her husband. The conversation concluded with a majority of posters suggesting that the original poster should consider separating from his wife.
