I've never understood this one. She confessed one day that she had been going on dates and texting one guy but nothing happened. Then later on she confessed that she fucked another man in a ONS slutty way. She was begging for my forgiveness of course. I was so shocked that it took me two weeks to man up and leave her (not fully alpha but getting there). I know this is the right choice as I'd never marry a woman that cheated on me, emotionally and physically.

So fast forward a month. I've been doing all the right things. Lifting more, adjusting my diet, socializing more, flirting with other women (but don't want to be tied down or even sleep with anyone for a while), and focusing on my hobbies.

The ex still calls, crying, begging me to take her back. I eventually proposed a FWB just so she'd say no and walk away but she agreed and for awhile I had a plate that was very sexually compatible with me. Now she admits she agreed just to get close to me and try to win me back so I cut that off.

Why do women disrespect everything about you, the relationship, and themselves by cheating then suddenly want you back AFTER you kick them to the curb?
