My Husband Of 10 Years Cheated On Me With My Best Friend

Reeling from my husband’s five-year affair with my best friend Liora, I was devastated when my mother-in-law, Ildiko, revealed their love letters. She’d confronted him, disgusted by his casual admission, and moved in to support me. We bonded through grief, cooking, and a lake cabin getaway where Ildiko shared her own heartbreaks, giving me strength. A letter from Liora confessed her miscarriage and love for him, easing my self-

doubt. I filed for divorce, supported by Ildiko, and ignored my ex’s pleas. Joining a book club, I met Thayer, a kind divorcee who understood betrayal. We grew close, cautiously. Ildiko and I gardened, cooked, and rebuilt. My ex’s attempts to reconcile failed; I’d found peace. Thayer confessed his love, promising patience. Liora sought therapy, and I found peace in letting go. Ildiko moved nearby, remaining family. A year later, celebrating with loved ones, I embraced my strength, grateful for the unexpected light after darkness.
