1. The Serial Spouse

I cheated on my ex-wife, got caught, we divorced, and then I married my lover. I cheated on her too, divorced her, and married another lover again. Marriage matters to women, not to me—I only go along when they push me… By the way, I have someone new now.

2. Pretending

The woman completely swept me off my feet—she was so enthusiastic in bed that I felt crazy about her, like I couldn’t live without her. She kept pushing me to divorce and marry her, threatening to leave otherwise, and I just couldn’t bear that. But right after the wedding, she changed—no interest in sex, wild spending, and I felt she hated me.

I realized it was all an act and she was after my money. My wife and friends warned me, but I didn’t believe it until later. I divorced her and worked hard to win back my wife, who I never plan to leave again. Fate showed me what happens when you’re selfish and follow only your desires.

3. Happy Ending

I confessed to my wife that I had fallen in love with someone else and wanted a divorce. Our relationship had been cold for about two years. She wasn’t happy but accepted it. While the divorce was still ongoing, she met a man. It’s been ten years since, and the four of us are so close that we regularly vacation together.

4. Not So Well

I divorced and married my lover, but she sulked whenever my kids were around. I suffered so much—I missed my daughters terribly and went crazy because I could only see them every other weekend. She made things harder. After months of constant fighting, she bluntly demanded I cut ties with my kids or she’d divorce me. I told her off. We divorced within a year, and since then, I’ve been alone—grateful she didn’t get pregnant, or she would have chained me to her forever.

5. Offspring

My ex-wife didn’t want children. I did, but I accepted her choice. Then I met my love, we dated secretly for six months, I came clean, and divorced. With my second wife, we’re raising two beautiful kids, and I’m the happiest man alive. I always wanted to be a dad.

6. That’s Life…

I married young, at 24. My friends were still dating well into their thirties, while I stayed monogamous. Then I met Bea, the sexiest woman at the company. I fell hard and left my wife without looking back.

I married Bea, and soon our first, then second, then third child was born. I didn’t want any kids—neither did my ex-wife—but Bea claimed she was on medication, which was clearly a lie. Our marriage fell apart, and we divorced. I was 40 then and haven’t had a relationship in ten years. I live alone, lonely, spending all my money on child support, while watching on Facebook as my first wife travels the world with her new partner. I often think if I hadn’t been so foolish, she’d be traveling with me now.

7. Caught

Somewhere, I’m glad I got caught because it led to a quick divorce. Now I’m with the woman I love, and she loves me back.

8. Left With Nothing

When my wife found out about my affair, she went wild and left me stripped financially in the divorce. My new wife and I started almost from scratch, but at least I know she doesn’t love me for my money, and we’re still doing well today.

9. Women, Countries

Klara was my lover for 12 years. I worked in Germany and only came home on weekends. When my job ended, I realized I wanted to be with Klara, not my wife. She didn’t take it well, but I left her the house and moved to Germany. I don’t regret my decision.

10. Together

I got caught having an affair, and my wife told me she had someone too. So, in full agreement, we divorced and both remarried.
