It Was Only After Moving In with My Lover That I Realised What a Huge Mistake I’d Made

My wife has always been incredibly shy. Whenever we were with our friends, she was quiet and reservednever speaking up first, only joining in when someone asked her a direct question. She never made a scene or acted jealous, always giving me her full attention without setting conditions or demands. She accepted all my gifts with genuine gratitude.
You could say our marriage was as close to perfect as one could hope for. Nothing was hidden between us; we always resolved matters together. Coming home after a long day at work, I could count on a delicious supper, a smiling wife, and a tidy house. What more could a man want?
Still, as things often go Despite this seemingly perfect family life, I started craving something thrilling, a little excitement. The truth is, I always felt something was missing with my wifespecifically in our intimate life, which was almost non-existent. I couldn’t accept this, so I made the foolish decision to find a lover.
My wife found out, and that was the end of us.
I moved in with my lover, and it was only then that I realised how foolish I had been. The flat was always in disarray, and there was never a warm meal waiting for me when I got home. We didnt even have much to talk about.
I decided eventually to try and return to my wife, but by then, it was too lateshe had already met someone else.
Ill never forgive myself. Through sheer stupidity, I lost the most wonderful woman I could have ever hoped for.
