She's bad in bed?
Ooor because the family obviously has issues?
#7, that's a ****** up and vain reason to cheat on someone.
#38: define 'good reason'. Some would say that dissatisfaction is a good reason.
#39, even dissatisfaction isn't a good reason. If you're not happy, just leave. That's better than betrayal.
Pretty sure #7 was joking. Lighten up.
I felt 7 was saying possible reasons as to why they were blaming the wife. Not an opinion of 7 on OP.
Don't worry you'll find someone worth your time!
FYL, but the sooner you find out the better for you.
Well at this point you're not involved with the family anymore, so who gives a crap?
I do believe he became the ex fiancé at this gathering
This was actually quite helpful, thank you
What kind of messed up logic is that?!
The "You fail logic forever" brand. Its sad how many people buy from them.
i really wonder how you ended up being the person that everyone is pointing fingers to
It doesn't matter, he's responsible for his own actions. He could have sacked up and broken it off before he stabbed his brother in the back.
People come up with plenty of stupid reasons to try to justify why the cheater is the victim in these cases. Usually, it's to make themselves feel better about their choices - to make themselves not look like the bad guy - and use their significant other as a scapegoat for their problems (i.e., she was boring in bed, so I had no choice but to shop around elsewhere; his attitude when discussing having kids drove me to seek another; it's his/her fault I wasn't happy in the relationship and found love somewhere else, etc.). No doubt, OP was a victim of illogical poppycock; the ex probably drummed up sympathy by saying he wasn't happy with OP, and they gave him the benefit of the doubt by overlooking his infidelity and projecting the causes onto OP in the process. In other words, they were blaming the tree for being where the fire was.
Sounds pretty Jerry Springer up in there
Oh I've encountered other's parents who are like that: ones that refuse to believe that their "flawless child" is guilty in any situation, thus why if their kid hurts somebody outside of their bloodline, they give that person the blame for their son's/daughter's actions. Don't worry, OP. Just be grateful that you're no longer with that asshole. You'll find somebody better.
I understand people who are like that, but why blame OP? It seems more logical to blame the brother's girlfriend to me. Maybe there is something else there and this is just an excuse to do be angry with OP?
I'm guessing it's just a question of playing favorites. The brother's gf may be more liked than OP, so they use OP as a convenient scapegoat to avoid blaming anyone else. Talk about denial!
