Now that I got some answers, I can follow it up.
My wife asked for a divorce back in January (while I was in Air Force BMT...yea). I saw her at graduation and that was the last contact we had. I went to tech school, hooked up with a hot young 19 year old (I"m 26, felt good) for the duration and then graduated. When I went home, I found out she was now dating a friend of mine. Do I know if it started before she asked me for a divorce? No. Do I think it did? Yes. So to me, she cheated. Fast forward to now, she"s living in L.A., still dating this guy but not living together, and recently contacting me through emails, telling me how miserable she is and probing if I would be willing to try to reconcile.
We were together for six years and didn"t get married until four years in. I"d be lying if I said she wasn"t the love of my life. I was happy and we were doing well up to my leaving for BMT. I never, ever thought she had it in her to do what happened. I think the shock of it all was worse than the actual event itself. I still don"t really know why it happened and she hasn"t been able to give me a good reason.
Either way, we aren"t getting back together because I don"t think I could ever get past it. Like someone said, there would always be a nagging "What if" in the back of my mind. I"m living in Germany and not really having a happy life at the moment but trying to look forward to the future. We won"t be legally divorced until Oct. 31. I"m kind of just hoping she moves out of L.A. because that"s where I"m likely going after Germany...
