Why do i still want them back after being cheated on?

i found out a week after we broke up that i was cheated on. i was doing much better until i found that out, and now it feels like im dealing with a whole new kind of pain and betrayal that i haven’t felt yet. and still im so ashamed because i still have a little part of me that would forgive and take her back. staying no contact is hard today. i want her to know that i know, and she didn’t get away with it like she thinks. but i don’t think that helps me one bit

i wanted that reaction too, but staying silent ended up hurting me less than reopening the door just to prove i knew.

do you think you want her back, or do you mostly want her to know that what she did actually hurt you?

finding out AFTER the breakup somehow made everything hurt again. i hated that part of me still wanted my ex even after knowing what they did, like my heart hadn't caught up with the truth yet

l i literally feel you, i also was cheated on, but we also broke up and i found out after, and i just have so much rage and anger inside of me, i wanted him to know that i hate him, and no one treated me like the way he did, and he already is with other girls at parties and i know that cause i see, he does that right in front of me, so i know what you feel, right now what you need to do is focus in yourself, dont give up on you, dont be alone, move on with your life, i know that kind of betrayal is horrible but you Will find someone who treats you that way you deserve, so dont give up
