To think karma has served up a lovely cold dish?

[Interestingfactsabouttoes]

I truly don't mean to be horrible and gloat,
But aibu to have a big on my face after finding out that exdp has been cheating on his gf (ow). She's found out as the ow called her and told her she was sleeping with her bf thinking gf was the ow (all a bit Jeremy Kyle).

If they can do it for you. They can do it to you

It's lovely when things come full circle isn't it?

Enjoy your moment, then back to being The Bigger Person.

Nothing wrong with that at all. Hopefully she's learned a valuable lesson.

Reminds me of the Maya Angelou poem
"Poor Girl"
You've got another love
and I know it
Someone who adores you
just like me
Hanging on your words
like they were gold
Thinking that she understands
your soul
Poor Girl
just like me.

You're breaking another heart
and I know it
And there's nothing
I can do
If I try to tell her
what I know
She'll misunderstand
and make me go
Poor Girl
just like me.
You're going to leave her too
and I know it
She'll never know
what made you go
She'll cry and wonder
what went wrong
Then she'll begin
to sing this song
Poor Girl
just like me.

Yes, but wouldn't it have been far more satisfying if ow had been doing the cheating?? He sounds like a rat who should carry a warning tattoo across his forehead!

Full circle would have been ifow had been cheating on ex, no? At the moment the cheating ex has simply cheated on another woman (or two, as both thought they were the gf).

Leopards do not charge their spots etc. I am always amazed by anyone taking on a known cheat. Obviously honesty and respect are not in their personalities!

I know someone like this . She was the OW and broke up their marriage .... The OW and cheat got married . cheat then met another OW and started an affair
Bizarelly it's the second time he'd cheated on OW with the same OW and she still took him back !!

He's an utter cuntbag and so is she

Either way katharina I still have a smile on my face. That woman made my life hell for the last two years, after finding out about their affair she constantly sent me pictures of her and ex together, telling me she took my man and that she was coming for my dcs next. Needless to say she is not allowed within 5feet of my dcs, she can keep 'my man' as he is the lowest of the low and has proved once again that he's just a dog with two dicks

If he cheats to be with you, he'll cheat on you sooner or later. A leopard does not change their spots

Nothing wrong with having a little to yourself

Wonder if he will try and come crawling back to u??

Happened to me this year too, was left for a woman on the internet, and 15yrs later she left him for someone on the internet.

Took it's time but I truly hope he knows how it felt now

shiny I've no doubt in my mind that she will take him back.
I remember about a year after we split I went out with friends and he was there with another woman and a few of his friends she turnt up and all hell broke loose, it was quite amusing to watch, I think it's still the same woman he's sleeping with now.

miss he has not a chance in hell.

Oh yes, must be great to see.

I have to say, I get small pleasure form just knowing how closely the OW (now my ExH Wife) watches what he is up to, knowing he has the potential to cheat. She is nervous that he will do the same to her as he did to me! As far as I am concerned, that is no way to live, but she knew what she was getting into!

YABU but I can't be arsed to explain the principles of Karma. Just remember what goes around comes around and you laughing at someone else's bad Karma will come back to you.
On a lighter note 😃 he's a cunt.

An exdp cheated on me then left for OW. Found out after they'd been together a couple of years that he was cheating on her too. On the one hand I felt bad that she'd been suckered in by him and was going to through the same as me but on the other, you reap what you sow (she knew he was my dp when they started their affair)

Don't see why he should have his cake and eat it again though, hope he chokes on it!

Yes, Painted.

I would say this is not Karma, but more like Nemesis.

painted I genuinely am a nice person. I help little old ladies cross the street, cook for my neighbour who is trying to fix his drinking problem, I think by the rules of karma I'm ok even if I do have a smug look on my face at the fact that a woman who believes she is gods gift to the world and nobody would ever cheat on her as she is perfect has been cheated on.
I would have preferred it if it was exdp but it wasn't meant to be that way.

Why do some women assume that they are so wonderful that despite knowing their boyfriend is a serial cheat he won't cheat on them?

It's a particular kind of self delusion.

What Painted said. Be careful that this doesn't smack you in the face, OP, although I understand that you're enjoying the validation. 'Validation' is fine, karma-proof.

My ex phoned the other day extremely unhappy because he thinks his girlfriend (the one he cheated on me with and then left me for) has been seeing someone behind his back. He considers himself to be incredibly intelligent, and yet he doesn't see the irony.....

You're not horrible.
I would have laughed myself fucking hoarse :)

Oh dear what a pity (stifles laughter).

Mmmm, delicious schadenfreude. You can always resume being nice once you've savoured the taste of "I told you so" for a little while. BTW, I find schadenfreude goes really well with sauvignon blanc =)
