I have seen a lot of posts where the woman that was cheated on refers to the other woman as a homewrecker and this is inaccurate. First off if you've been cheated on, I'm sorry to hear that as no one deserves to undergo that kind of pain.

So when we think of entering a home, we have keys we use to unlock the door to get in right? Now think of this, when you're cheated on and you call the other person a homewrecker...who gave them the key to unlock the door to your home? Who opened that door to let them in? Who welcomed them to wreck the home together? Exactly.

The other person can't be the homewrecker because someone had to let them in to wreck it in the first place. Give credit where it's due...to the true homewrecker.

Build your life on a foundation of peace with honesty and loyalty as the frame, love as the insulation and walls, and happiness and joy as the roof.

EDIT: I understand the rollercoaster of emotions that occur after this kind of event especially if it's serial. I am unfortunately speaking from experience (7 years of cheating and abuse, now 4 years free). I do hope that this post somehow helps those by offering another perspective to break through the feelings of self-blame and guilt and even deflection. You are worth the truth and the first and most difficult step is to not lie to yourself. Lay the transgression at the feet of those who earned it and wash your hands of the deed. Feel free to share your advice and uplifting messages as we never know the true strength of our words. Be kind, let the tears fall, and never lose your beautiful smile 😊
