You guys know that we spend A LOT of time on Reddit. First of all, it's part of our job - to scour the ends of the webs for the juiciest and most drama-filled stories so that we can present them on a silver platter to you, our gossip-loving community. But as you guys know, gossiping is not the only thing we do here on CheezCake. We also use these stories as lessons on what to do and what not to do in relationships. 

So while reading through countless dating stories, we can't help but feel like people have become way too quick to judge their significant others and immediately opt for the 'dump him' option. Don't get us wrong, if there are major red flags - you should save yourself. But something people fail to do is actually work on and through their problems. 

Welp, today we're bringing you a crazy story filled with shock value. We encourage you to read through the end because, unlike all those other people we mentioned above, these two are actually capable of working through their issues and growing together as a team.

    Mammal - I (29F) and my husband (30M) have been married for 4 years now, together for 7. And it's going fantastically well. He's handsome, cute, kind, loving, and makes me feel safe and wanted and loved and protected. He takes me on dates, shows physical affection wherever he can, and also just makes me feel happy.

    Font - We have no kids but we are trying for it. So the other day I was cleaning the house (I'm a housewife) and I was cleaning the air vent at the top of the staircase aisle, because we had never cleaned it ever since we bought the house. And when I opened it, there was a box. An unmarked box. I took it out and then opened it and then there was a note (more about it somewhere down below) and...

    Human body - Divorce papers. All ready with our names on it. The only thing wasn't filled in was the signatures of us. I was crushed. He had just gone to work after kissing me for 7-8 minutes and hugged me and everything has been going great. So why this?

    'He had just gone to work after kissing me for 7-8 minutes and hugged me and everything has been going great. So why this?' 

    This part broke us a little. Because men do be acting like everything is rainbows and unicorns and then go ahead and cheat or file for divorce. Insane.

    Font - I opened the note, and it read as follows: It is with immense regret and sadness that your love between you and (my name) has ran its course. I'm sorry (his name). You didn't deserve this. Or you did. I don't know. Maybe she cheated, maybe you did. Maybe the love didn't last for you. All those times, all those moments of being with her, are of no use now. In the end, she did go away. Or you rather made her leave. She's gone. Never coming back. It's okay you fucking r word pos, you didn't

    Font - Or She cheated on you. I'm sorry for that. She let another man's dick inside her and she didn't back off. She had an affair physical or emotional, and she didn't choose you. Forget her. Forgive her. Because to be amity, is to be forgiving. And you deserve the peace my friend. You did everything that you could, but she wanted more. Listen to "We Don't Understand Each Other" from ST3, and go to sleep. Hit the gym tomorrow. I'm here for you. Take care mate. Yours, (His Name).

    Font - His note was from himself by himself for himself. I'm crying right now. I've never cheated on him and never even had the thought of cheating on him. All I want is him to be with me. What should I do? It breaks me to see how he thinks like this

    Font - slobone 10 days ago OP I hope you read this. When my mental health/paranoid delusion was at its worst, my intrusive thoughts were always telling me I should be meticulously preparing for my strong, healthy LTR to fall apart and I would do shit like this. I wrote myself notes to cheer myself up after imaginary scenarios like this- "you pushed them away" "they cheated and you want to die" "you've fallen out of love" "so your mental illness was too much and he left you". I even got myself on

    Font - He is depressed but has gotten considerably better, due to medical means and therapy. He was diagnosed with OCD and Depression (moderate). He also has been portraying signs of imposter syndrome ever since we started dating, but not to the extent that it could be considered seriously.

    Font - He is quite smart as he has been to an Ivy League school, and is now currently working as a head of department of R&D, in a well paying job. But he doesnt openly express emotions, struggles with affection display. He does portray how much he loves me and makes me feel wanted but he's still afraid of opening up.

    Font - So he came home. I was sitting on the couch with the box on the coffee table. He tried to kiss me but froze the moment he saw the box. I broke down at that point, because the though of him not coming home to me every day broke me. He came to comfort me, but I pushed him away. don't I am Just crying and saying, Why? Why would you do this?! You think you deserve me or you thought I fucking cheated on you?!

    Font - He said nothing. After I calmed down, he said that: He had made the arrangements for this, a contingency plan 3-4 months ago when an office worker of his got cheated on and another office worker's marriage failed as the wife didn't find the husband attractive or interesting anymore and also that was coincidentally the time he became a reddit user, and he started to get frightened about this issue as he read many posts on r/survivinginfedelity, and also open marriages and relationships.

    Font - At this point, we both were breaking down. He tried to come closer to touch and comfort me and I let him. I wrapped my arms around him and didn't let go. We hugged forever, and cried our hearts out. When he finally pulled back and he kissed me for, God knows how long. I don't wanna lose him. I love this man and I want to be around him forever and ever. We fell asleep on the couch with me on top of him. When we woke up and had breakfast. Then we burned the divorce papers and the note in ou

    Font - We discussed and will consult a therapist for the both of us to counter the things he has in his mind. The more I look at him the more I smile because I know I've found the one for me.
