Cheated on a good man

About a year ago I had a I cheated on my boyfriend with his best friend and he caught us together. A few days later he met with me and I told him everything and he found it in his heart to forgive the both of us but he would never forget.

Now I am engaged to the new guy and I recently found out through mutual friends that my ex has not been out with any woman since he caught us in bed that night. Apparently all he does now is work.

I feel so horrible because the two people he trusted the most in the world betrayed him so badly, my fiancee and I want to talk to him but we are afraid of what will happen.

Is it normal to want to get this guy back in our lives
Do you think it's normal?

wow that is (****)=). try to know is he seriously doing it and the people are not delivered by him. if it is not so the best way is go back to him and tell him that your really sorry and you want him to come back to you and you come back to him.

then you would spend with him your whole life happy.

but now if you ignore it you would not be happy and he would not be happy in your whole life.

everything comes back to you!!!!!!!
I'm sorry things have to happen this way. I'm afraid the damage has been done. If you had told him back then you were seeing his best friend, then things might be alright, but for him to find out this way must be extremely traumatic.

I've experienced something like this before so let me tell you what's happening to him: he's lost his faith in true love. Once upon a time, he was faithful to the person he loved only to be betrayed in this way. Once upon a time, he though that as long as he is faithful and nice, kind and caring, she would do the same to him. But not anymore. He will never invest the same time and energy on a woman like that again.

I'm not saying all of this to criticize you. You did what you had to do, but let's be fair here, if he never finds a woman again, it's probably because of you.

There's not much use now talking to him. You will only be seen as talking to him purely out of pity. He needs to talk to somebody about it, but that somebody cannot be you. Until he talks to someone about it, he will never get over this and find himself another girl. Frankly, he deserves someone better...
i agree. leave the guy alone. he not only deserves better than you, he deserves to not have either you or his worthless ex "best friend" anywhere in his life.
I also agree, and from my own experience with exactly the same situation I can say that chances are... he hates you and always will. Get over it and leave him alone. You've done more than enough already. Nothing personal, but you don't even deserve to be acknowledged by him.
Congratulations, you're a terrible human being.
I think you're a b*tch to be honest.

leave the poor guy alone, ok?

u sound so big headed.. he DOESNT want you back cos like MrChimpo said, ur a terrible human being.

you knew EXACTLY what u were doing when u cheated with his best friend! how could you do that to him?? u and ur current boyfriend should just P*SS off and leave ur ex lone.
hey umm pointing out the obvious u never cared bought his feelings when u cheated on him with his best friend and now u care like what the hell is wrong with u :P
he would probably feel better if your fiance cheated on you with your best friend,got engaged to her, and then got cheated on by her.
I don't understand how people could cheat like that.
Dipsh**s like you wreck homes and negatively affect the lives of many.
You lost a good man and I hope you get what you deserve.
i would really recommend not going to talk to this man, who knows what fuse that may light...
listen i know shit happens and mistakes are made. dont let people judge your for this. however having said this, not the best idea on your part. lucky he didnt attack the man right then and there... cuz i did when it happened to me...
Wow. That's tough. I could put myself in your shoes and try to think about how you feel, but you would really have to walk in his shoes to understand how bad that guy feels. He has become disenchanted with life and is working to distract himself from the reality that two people he trusted betrayed him. He probably has lost his faith in social and sexual relationships. He's going through a healing process that may not end for a long time.
If he had cheated on you with your best friend chances are you probably wouldn't want anything to do with him either. I agree, just give the man his space. You never know, he could go serial killer on your a**
You are a slut. You know it, your ex knows it, and your fiance knows it. Don't ever forget that.
You are a bitch i would have killed you if i were him i would have strung u up by ur feet and slit ur throat and watched you with your life slowly draining away cuz thats probably how you made that man feel but thats just me have a nice life slut
I agree with everyone else who calls you a bitch. Just stay out of his life, he doesn't need people like you.

And seriously, why would he need to be dating any woman within a year? He doesn't need anyone to be concerned about his love life, you're obviously no expert. It almost seems like you just want to fix things up and see him with a new girl so you can feel better about yourself.
From personal experience I would say to let him go. I found myself in the same situation (Kinda) and my boyfriend is still best friends with his buddy who I almost cheated with. *YES I'M A HORRIBLE PERSON TOO* I got caught planing to cheat. I regret it. But it drives me nuts when we all hang out and I don't understand why my bf is still with me or best buds with his friend. I guess I deserve to feel miserable. In your circumstances... you should let him go. If I stayed with my bf's best friend. It would torture my ex bf to know that were together. Don't do that to him.
Yes it is completly normal but it is not in the best intrest of his mental health or state.

He is probably emotionally destroyed and it is hard for someone to have to see the people who did it to them, could make there life miserable.

And no person should suffer that
