I had been with my boyfriend for 6 years.

One night he didn't come home.

The next morning I get 2 phone calls. One from him explaining he had fallen asleep drink at a friends house. The next call was from the girl who worked at the plumbing merchants where he got his supplies. She proceded to tell me in a very vicious way the my boyfriend had been with her all night and gave me explicit details ofor their sex acts.

I was 21. My first and only boyfriend since I was 15. It destroyed me. To find out you have been cheated on is hard enough but to have the other woman phone and taunt me was very damaging.

Boyfriend kept saying she was a mistake and begged me back. I moved to Spain and ignored him but the emails and contact never stopped.

Fast forward 10 years. He has married her

He emails me again telling me he felt pressured wasn't happy about it and that he has never stopped loving me and getting with her was one ofor the biggest mistakes of his life.

I sent it on to her.

Not sure if it's something I feel proud of or not but revenge felt sweet.

Thanks for up votes. What happened next?

He called me shocked and upset I had done it.

I'm not normally so vindictive.

But when I explained to him how I still burned up inside thinking of her phone calls and with her, gloves are off, he understood. (Burnings stopped now - can think of it to with no pain now)

He is half way through his divorcee. He's still in UK and I'm still in Spain but strangely we are very good friends now and talk every week. We get on too well. Know each others families. He has poped into my mum and sisters to fix things and for a cup of tea.

He was a young boy of 21 when he cheated. I'm not saying it's excusable but it's understandable. Neither of us had been with anyone else etc etc. He has learnt alot and really matured. Still lets me know he would like us to be together but i have made it clear. It won't happen but I love him like a brother now.

She was so vicious and what she said was awful and even years on when I matured and thought about her and what she said it was still shocking ( to give a general idea - “he loved fucking my arse and you don't let him do thathe do you? Etc etc you get the idea.)

So years on when I got the email I did have second thoughts as didn't want to hurt my ex but my finger would not stop twitching. I had to do it. I justify it by hoping she learns some class and morals and how to treat her fellow women.

She put a few things up on Facebook referring to me afterwards but I didn't respond as she only embarrassed herself.
