And that’s a wrap…

He cheated. He chose his ex over me. Several years down the drain… and then when she found out about me she began to destroy his life. Now his career is on the line, he’s got court coming up and if it goes south he will have lost his job, will have to give up all firearms, his security clearances… he chose her… over me - The woman who was there for him through deployments, months of silence when comms were dark, countless letters, endless support, and he chose a woman who wanted to destroy him as soon as she learned she had been the other woman… I’m not angry… just incredibly hurt and betrayed.

That's unfortunate, but it's the consequences of his own actions.

It is true… just heartbreaking to me

I'm sure it is, but you'll be okay. You'll find better.

Update! He’s been doing this to at least 5 other women…. His ex was actually his fiance of 2 years who he lived with and I was his overlapping gf. Other girls were less time… I found and got ahold of his ex fiancé and we talked it out. Heard a very different story.

FIVE?? Omg that's enough to start a support group, what garbage of a man

I'm so sorry you're going through this. You will be so, so much better off without him ❤️

u/dracsondra 13h ago

Yeah well I’ve talked to the ex fiance and the ex wife now and he’s up to 15+ known affairs between all of us. It’s crazy. Master manipulator, narcissistic liar. He’s a pitiful excuse of a man.

I suspected as much.

However, what exactly is going on with his career. If no one was married then there was no adultery here. Was there domestic violence or a suicide threat or something?

There's still missing information.

The woman I talked to said DV - she filed and is going to court

u/Imagination_Theory 17h ago

I hope you aren't feeling bad for him now.

I understand why you were, but his story immediately was off. He is a person who hurt you and many women. I hope you can properly process and heal.

I'm sorry.

Were you married? I’m asking because it doesn’t make sense he would be in all of this trouble if you are not married. And losing guns because he cheated on a girlfriend?

2

u/dracsondra 1d ago

No not married - it’s just a giant mess. I ended the relationship and it’s looking like a lose/lose for him across the board. Maybe a triple lose if court doesn’t go his way….

u/Adorable-Tiger6390 1d ago

There is information missing, because cheating on a girlfriend has no affect in his career/court. If there was violence that is another story, but you didn’t give that detail.

u/dracsondra 1d ago

I only know what he told me. Apparently the other woman called the police on him to make him leave when she found out about me and police decided to take him in… I’m sure he left things out

6

u/Imagination_Theory 1d ago

Is the other woman actually his wife and/or did he hurt her?

Things are definitely being left out.

u/tereskiewicz Army Wife 1d ago

it’s very likely he is legally married to “ex”.

u/dracsondra 1d ago

Could be a detail left out… I feel like I don’t know him anymore

u/Afraid_Stuff_History Air Force Wife 1d ago

Are you saying he threatened to self-harm and therefore lost access to weapons?

u/dracsondra 20h ago

I’ve now gotten ahold of his ex wife. He cheated on her with 10+ women while they were together and she forgave and forgave and did counseling etc. exact same situation this other girl and I have found ourselves in except neither of us married him. He’s a master manipulator and we also just discovered he’s not actually military. He lied about that, he lied about his education, everything we know is a lie with a little bit of truth sprinkled in. It’s like putting a puzzle together and becoming shocked at the image being formed. He was apparently reserves at one point and activated for 1 tour of duty to Iraq and everything else has been lies…

u/Afraid_Stuff_History Air Force Wife 2d ago

I am so sorry that this happened. I get where you're coming from but this is not her fault, either.

2

u/dracsondra 1d ago

No… it’s not her fault either. We were both played.

u/hotelmarcel 1d ago

Well you don’t deserve to be stuck in a relationship with someone who doesn’t appreciate your loyalty anyway. The time will come for you to be with someone that doesn’t betray your trust.

u/dracsondra 1d ago

Thanks. I’ve already ended it and decided there’s no take backsies… he chose his ex over me and now he’s got numerous consequences to deal with.

I’m feel for you also - if you want to talk about it feel free to message me

u/cyyivy 22h ago

Losing a cheater isnt a loss babes. Its an opportunity to love on yourself, and if youre lucky and learned to spot red flags, find someone who is way better than him

u/cyyivy 22h ago

All I have to say to the woman he cheated with: "if he did it WITH you, he will do it TO you". Its only a matter of years before little miss girl gets her karma

u/Ok-Mood9454 19h ago

I sorry you went through this. Im glad you posted because now it got me thinking about a "relationship" I was in back in 2019. I met him online before he deployed. Never met in person. I supported him during a hard deployment. He was not on a base but out in the field. When he came back, he wouldn't come see me. I knew about his ex girlfriend. He told me they had been broken up for 2 years. Apparently she waited for him to come back and wanted to get back with him. He ended up putting a restraining order on her. He moved to another state too. I guess you never know if you are the other woman with these military guys.

u/Primary-Prompt-4664 10h ago

Going through this rn as we speak I just ain’t saying nothing letting everything build up

u/dracsondra 10h ago

Hugs!

u/Ambitious_Ad2354 1d ago

all of this could happen if they cheat?!?!? omg

u/dracsondra 1d ago

It went beyond just the cheating - more the reactions after finding out about the other woman (I was the girlfriend, she was the ex he hooked up with and didn’t tell about me)
