A woman has been left heartbroken after discovering the man she was dating is actually married – and has been left with a permanent reminder of their relationship
A heartbroken woman has discovered that her boyfriend is married and has given her an STD. She found out about his double life after spotting his work name tag, which had a different name to the one he had given her.
On Reddit, she said: “I’ve been dating a man in his 50s for a few months – a fantastic gentleman, I was really loving life. While away on business, I saw his name tag had a different name than what he gave me.”
She went on to explain that she had found loving photos of him with a wife on Facebook and that she felt like she was “I’ve found loving photos with a wife on Facebook. Grieving is the word for what I feel.”
The woman also revealed that she had been cheated on in the past and had contacted other women to let them know what was happening behind their backs, but had never received a response. “In the past, I’ve sent messages to the other girlfriend, but with no response. What do you suggest? ,” she asked, reports the Mirror.

“She should know that, right? I’m so sad and disappointed how people treat each other. For those who say to just dump him and not tell… he gave me herpes. Everything else tested negative. He said he didn’t think it was him but there are facts.”
While many users sympathised with the woman, others urged her to contact the wife to tell her the truth about her “disgusting” husband. One user commented: “Tell the wife in the most non-confrontational way possible. It may appear that she does nothing, but she’ll have the information, which is what matters.”
“I’ve been the wife on the receiving end of this kind of message and when a stranger brings information like this to you, you don’t know their intent or if it is credible. But, having this happen made me hyper-aware and on the lookout for suspicious behaviour. Spoiler – we’re now divorced.”
Another person said: “He gave you herpes? Not to mention married. Yeah, I’d make his life a living hell. Sorry this happened to you.” Someone else mentioned: “Please, please, please tell her! I have been in her shoes and multiple people could have stopped that train. I am so thankful the other women came forward. She was also misled about the status of our marriage.”
