Emotional abuse

What’s something you’ve forgiven but haven’t forgotten?

My ex husband cheated on me the entirety of our 20 yr marriage. He was involved in illegal sexual activity. The entire time he promised to change but he didn’t. He also told me countless times it was my fault he did these things. I figured he spent $200,000 over the years on his sexual activities.

I have forgiven him because he is a shallow man who had been put on a pedestal by his family. He needed to be the center of attention. His needs came first. When I realized he was mentally ill, the forgiveness came easier. But I will never forget what he did.
