my uncle cheated on my aunt after 15 years

and my grandma says "he was probably under a love potion"

my capricorn's ex cheated on him after 11 years and he says:

"he must've brainwashed her"



how come the cheater's never at fault?

my aries ex got back with his libra ex after bombing me online

and she can have her spoils coz she won fair and square

my high school leo bf got love letters from some annoying girl

he threw them away but why would i get mad over tributes to my beloved? lol

my taurus sun/taurus moon cousin cheated on her cancer ex with a gemini and sent him back the dog she got for their anniversary but can't really judge coz....

gemini won her affections

maybe it's my first house recognizing the spoils of war

but most men leave for uglier people statistically anyway.....

i had a point somewhere in all these i swear

it's true

they've got those scientific articles about men (coz women level up) leaving their partners for people considered less attractive by conventional standards

just ask all the cancer women to confirm

also as someone whose once aspired to steal a boyfriend and sentimental asf enough to believe in instant connections....even if i'm the one in danger of loss, i can't ever really fault the 3rd wheel

Are there really studies that show men leave their partners for women that *they* are less physically/sexually attracted to? I mean I'm sure lots of people who've been dumped/cheated on, etc. tell themselves it that their ex has downgraded. And I've seen studies that purport to show that men are more interested in marriage with females who have less typically feminine features, and conversely studies that claim that women are happier wrt to feeling less pressure (particularly around dietary restrictions) with men considered less conventionally attractive....but these are really different issues...

It's easier.

To accept that it was the SOs decision to potentially hurt you would mean to question the relationship even further than the situation often already demands. If however the main "villain" in the story is someone you don't really know or have a connection with the relationship can keep functioning mostly the same way it did before once the the "villain" has been removed.

In other words it's mostly just a cognitive trick.


yes this.

plus for people to blame the ex means that they chose an arsehole.

worse yet, to blame the ex meant that that person felt that you (the person cheated on) were inferior and as you have been left behind, logic states you are inferior.

that's not a comfortable conclusion to confront for anyone. it's much easier to say it was out of their control. it absolves the cheated on for any poor judgement and any suggestion that they might actually be not as good ("what do they have that i don't have?" etc)

At the end of the day I think feminine ego will go to great lengths to see itself as all-accepting.

It changes with age of course.

+5000 mansplaining points for the day

the fact that i have.. quite an EGO actually helps me move on easier

why stay where i feel undesirable?

This could be an area where you are masculine. The whole topic is a pure guess on my part.

I think most people just like to play the blame game and they like blaming others because blaming their partner would necessitate that they come to terms with some cold hard truths like their partner is a insensitive, careless and a disrespectful degenerate. Most people love to play ostrich

Instead of fixating on this, think about all the things you can get away with this guy who doesn't even talk bad about his hoor of an ex.

lol i'm only his 2nd gf..... ever

he expected to be married last march

yet i still get paranoid sometimes even though he spoils me

kittens was right, these cap men will spoil you

And then you pre-emptively cheat on him out of paranoia that he'll do it to you first.

Holy shit.

Either way, you gave me "the Frida Kahlo gambit" today. Which I'm stealing.

Gonna go read about her for the night.

would've made more sense if gatsby turned out gay

turn of the century twist

watched The Other Woman with Cameron Diaz and thought it was gonna turn gay

these plots are more effective this way

I've forgotten which way around it goes, but I think it was courtship that came first (invented in France or Florence??) and then later dating came about after the first World War. Right when that was written. @Antiphates will probably know.

It makes sense to me that a radical departure from courtship would blow wide open a vaccuum of nostalgia, for men and women to spend the rest of the century writing about homoerotic love without even realising.

interesting now I feel like reading about that

LOL. I was telling my mom and bro about your last and this comment and they were laughing because a lot of people, including them, say this to me in real life.

I was dating this Taurus moon dude couple months back and I think he was blissfully ignorant about STIs. I told him about herpes and getting regularly checked and I think he resented me for it. He wished I never told him that. LOL.#poppingpeoplesbubblesince1986

😘 thank you for your kind words. That’s the thing I like Virgos for, which is their appreciation for the aqua mind and the feeling is mutual. I respect Virgos for their analytical mind.

I’ve been lately snapping my Virgo dominant aunt out of her slumber lately and she legit said your comment to me like three days ago.
