Most people dont want to date a cheater, let alonemarryone.
But some folks truly think their love can change a cheetahs (pun intended) spots.
They fall so deeply in love that the red flags start to look almost rose-colored.
Thats what happened to a Redditors younger sister.
The sister fell in love with the womans cheating ex-fiance and even got engaged to him.
She had dated a man named Mike for five years.
She immediately called off the wedding, and Mike moved away shortly after.
Infidelitycan have a deep impact on the victim.
It can make the betrayed person feel a huge sense of loss, loneliness, and emptiness.
Thats why it often takes a long time to heal from cheating.
The worst part is that even OPsparentsknew about the relationship but had decided to keep the information from her.
This was a terrible betrayal on many levels and must have been extremely difficult for the woman to process.
The negative feelings might be stronger if the betrayer is ones romantic partner or close family member.
She didnt seem to understand how painful the entire experience must have been for her sibling.
Even the posters parents sided with their youngest daughter.
The OP could not handle their behavior and decided not to attend her sisters wedding.
Psychologists say the best way to deal with a betrayal is to calm your mind and avoid overthinking.
The womans parents didnt understand her feelings and expected her to stop being selfish and attend her sisters wedding.
If she just gave in, it might indicate that she hadforgiven the betrayal.
But forgiveness takes time and should not be rushed.
Hopefully, the sisters can patch things up and heal their relationship.
But nobody should have been forcing the OP to move on and accept such betrayal in the first place.
