My ex-wife and I were one of those "perfect" relationships. And then I found out she cheated on me for over a year.

I'm feeling a little better after my post from earlier. I wanted to tell more of this story. This is in the way of the TLDR stuff, more details here. <br><br>My ex-wife and I were married for almost 10 years, together for 15. We went to high school together but met when we were adults. We were just one of those couples that everyone just loved. We were so close and had so much fun together. For the first 13 years together, we just had a blast. It was a dream come true, I was so lucky. And once our daughter was born, we had a child that we just adored and loved and we had the "perfect" little family. <br><br><br>I'm just feeling better because after I read my post from earlier, I was like "man, I led just such a miserable life" but reading it that way I felt like I was putting a spin on it. I really did have so much fun and we really were good together. I think she was perfect for a long time. I think she was happy and in love with me for a long time and that we really had a very special thing. I'm not the man I was when we first met but I feel like the way I am today is probably what I should have been all along. <br><br>I'm really so in love with my new wife and excited to see where the rest of my life goes. I'm more sad about the way my daughter is going to experience her Mom and I being divorced than anything. I'm sad for her and I wish she had my ex-wife from a few years ago and I was 5-10 years younger. I feel like me being younger and my ex-wife being happy with me and in love with me would be the best scenario for my daughter. I know I can try to be as supportive as possible and try to make sure I'm giving her the best life possible, but I really do wish she had "perfect" parents like my parents.
