Lessons From the End of a Marriage
We're often told to "get over it" when perhaps better advice would be to "learn from it."
Be comforted. Be educated. Be inspired.
Let your past be your inspiration rather than your excuse.

Viewer Questions: How do I keep my thoughts present?
Thank you ❤ I love you. I caught him just few days ago with another woman he continues to lie, and he hasn't been around since, and when he is, he gets so defensive when I ask where he's been. I'm so hurt. How do I let him go when he's obviously gone already.? He left me crying many times when I'd accuse him of infidelity he is not very kind to me these days.
Gosh I dont know how I found you but I am sooo certain that god sent me your way. Thank you, you explained my emotions to the T. Thank you for that.
Lots of empty space in America where no one will think a plot of disturbed ground is out of place. Just sayin'.
cried while watching this. which I haven't allowed myself to do at all. thank you for your wisdom.
Lisa, thank you. 🙏🏼
It hurts 😢
Little bit to the BOREDOM side this video doesn't reallt give much power. Boring and shes stuck in her own experience with a cheater, but doesn't really offer any genuine help...wat a cheater, i feel cheated out of my precious time watching this time wasting video
That's is what I'm going thru now since she found her sister our marriage is on the rocks and im the blame for everything 😢
Seriously
What a great video. The hardest part for me honestly is how she could live such a double life… I now think back on so many occasions we have had together recently and think to myself wow she was probably texting him while we were at the baseball game or dinner or in bed together. Not to mention all the manipulation she used making me think she is at certain places when she was with him. Cheaters are all around awful soul less people. You have to be pretty evil to knowingly hurt your unsuspecting spouse. All of us deserve better. To anyone reading this comment… I hope you find your happiness. You deserve better 💜
Knowing someone would flunk a Sunday School test taken in crayon is probably a clue…Godlessness!
My wife used to cheat on me and now she acts like it never happened 😮
My husband has cheated twice that I know of. The last one no sex yet I walked right into see them at a public place. 24 years together. I keep obsessing, he picked me but it’s been a rough road. He still is her boss this is what makes it difficult. Thank you for this it truly helped me. It’s only been 2 months. Good luck to all they don’t deserve the space in our head.
Its a killer estranged from my two children all becise i found out and called out my ex wife 15 yrs later the pain is still raw ..its abuse
I gave her my heart and soul, I did everything in my power so that we could have a future together. So much history full of love and trust and happiness completely crushed. I'll never understand why she did what she did, it was cruel and I didn't deserve any of it. It's such an incredibly lonely and sad place to be. Thank you for this video, I needed to hear some of the things you said. Anyone else who might be reading this, you're not alone. Stay strong.
🫡 I’m right there with you buddy. I’m days into this myself. It’s not the first time with my wife sadly… but I’m making sure this is the LAST
@@barkburton1 yessir! It'll only keep happening and you don't deserve to go through that kind of pain once, let alone multiple times. It's gonna suck to get through, it already does suck, but there's a light at the end of the tunnel. Good luck man.
@@quantum3183 good luck to you as well… cheaters suck. They will get their karma. Anytime I get sad I just remember there is nothing to be sad about. That person isn’t real. She’s fake as the day is long. I feel like William Wallace at the end of Braveheart…… FREEEEEEEEDOM!
I'm just happier being single. I really like the freedom and now I can focus on bettering my own life and future instead of someone else's. Plus, I have a kid and I don't want any new partner coming in telling me how to raise my kid.
People who cheat are sick pieces of shit with serious insecurities. Their infidelity has nothing to do with you, you were just collateral damage unfortunately. Try to put your focus and energy on things that make you happy, or make you grow as a person, money moves, discover new hobbies, go to God, seek therapy. Happy healing everyone.
This is the hardest, most gut-wrenching thing I have ever dealt with. I have been in past relationships where I was cheated on, but I was younger and still had so much of life ahead of me. I am in my 3rd marriage and just found out that he has been cheating for 4 years with a woman who also helped break his first marriage. I thought this marriage was a blessing from God, and I am sure there is a blessing somewhere. I am scared of moving too fast with a divorce, but maybe that is me being in denial. Thanks for sharing your words of wisdom.
this is so powerful and needed today. thank you for sharing your words.
0:57 Redefine purpose and identity... Who am my now and how can pursue new purpose.
You know. There is a shift in their behavior, plus they get defensive. The worse is when you have evidence and they still deny it.
Amy Mullis was a two time cheater. Not now
I have been happily divorced for 40 years, and they have been the happiest years of my life. I haven't given up on woman though, I have dated over 90 woman only for casual sex. Take it from me marriage is the leading cause of divorce. Marriage is a terrible idea for most ambitious men. Keep state divorce laws out of out of your business and finances. STAY SINGLE! you can still have amazing intimate relationships with beautiful woman without getting married.
"What do you want to be able to do? How do you want to live? How do you want to love? Let THAT be your driving force."
This is the only video on this topic that hasn't annoyed me. I feel very understood, and also I feel I understand more.
Being cheated on destroyed me with severe anxiety. When my ex cheated he denied it and swore to his family that it was not true. After a week he confessed the truth. I then cried and he cried. He apologized and plead to stay with him. I stayed with him and he continued his toxic cycle. and eventually ghosted me a few yrs later. Never stay with a cheat because they will cheat again. It's a awful feeling being cheated on. Not even a pill can help with the anxiety you are feeling. Emotional stress is harder to heal vs physical illness. I do not miss or love him after seeing his true colors. I felt like I was not enough for him.
This was your personal journey, it isn't the same for everyone. I, for example, choose to work toward reconciliation. I would suggest that you present your experience and choices as yours instead of presenting your experience as a path to follow. I will say, however that I appreciated your transparency, desire to help, compassion and suggestions. I did, indeed, appreciate many things about your video. So, thank you.
Wow Lisa, that was the most profound and helpful, heartfelt advice I have heard. It has really encouraged me to rise up in my own strength and stop hoping that my husband can make me feel better. Thank you so much
I just found out... I'm so so sad
I think you should have kids before making suggestions. As a parent you do the best for the kids and yourself. Screw the cheater. She means nothing. I will admit the last point is dead on. Never rely on your kids for support.
No I havent been cheated on but I watch this video because Im communicating with a woman who has been. We have a lot in common and have a great connection at times, but its like bread crumbs. You can't love someone else back to wholeness. I find that this persons , love affection attention and availability to connect are so inconsistent and sporadic...If someone is shut down, closed off and unavailable doesn it stand to reason that their partner will eventually start to look elsewhere?
Hi Lisa, many thanks for making this video. Thank you for your comforting words, today you made my day a happy one, I thank you.
My husband of 23 years divorced me for a 29 year old woman named Ilvyna, that he met online in a game called Adventure Quest 3D.
Thank you so much for this
I have tried 35 years of finding love with a woman. Unfortunately, I have tried everything and wasted too much time and money. At 50, I have given in to the truth that I have failed and I will concentrate on myself alone
Thank you for posting this. I'm recently divorced and have been pursued by two individuals but not feeling ready to date. I'm choosing to stay single until it feels right.
I am a protective and could work for the FBI or CIA in regards to my husband I don't know how to stop because I feel that he's continuing the affair I have a gut instinct I felt it in my I feel it down to every cell in my body knows something has happened or is happening I have lots of evidence saying it is he continues to say not what I don't understand about myself is why I am not leaving and I don't want to I don't understand the fear I don't get it. Very frustrating
Yes i needed the details
Where are you Lisa?? I need your videos
I think my problem is my own ego. She is engaged after 1 year of separation, officially divorced 6 months ago. The guy is a clear downgrade, so I question why am I being replaced by someone who isn't as good looking, successful and morally grounded? Not trying to talk myself up, its just a reality of who she chose. I guess in a way it hurts me, that she chose him, knowing who he is. My perspective is while she has been running straight into a new relationship, I have been focusing on myself, my mental and physical health, and my son. I have changed for the better. She has not changed at all, and guessing most likely this new relationship will crash and burn at some point again.
I’m trying not to care I’m trying not to care
solo traveling and getting a new wardrobe may be wonderful but my dear most of us are broke
Absolutely best guidance to heal …if I only knew then … thank God I came thru alive , thanks .
I wish my wife would just admit it so i can move forward ive begged for her to come clean but she wont idk if its because she doesmt wanna hurt me or she doesmt wanna look bad or if shes cheated with a bunch of people but theres too many things that have happened that make me sick in my spirit. I already know i just need her to verbalize it so i can heal
We were so happy. I had a 6 year old son from a previous relationship and we had a daughter 2 years ago. Bought a house. My ex fiance was begging for a ring and more babies. A cpl months after proposing in front of my whole family on xmas she cheated and monkey branched to that new guy immediately. My house is empty and quiet. Been painting the walls building stuff trying to change all the happy memories. She's heartless & evil now. A completely dif person its scary like that movie pet cemetery. She also abandoned my son and broke his heart too.
Thank you for this. 🥺💗
Dear Lisa, I am so sorry for your loss. I too have experienced multiple unexpected and unimaginable betrayals. Your comments hit home and do move me to tears, again. I remain damaged goods. I feel as though you could be a close friend and confidant. A rock. Thank you.
I want to be able to trust. I don’t think I can ever trust a man though. They are wired to cause pain.
Thanks
Thank you for putting all these frustrating feelings i have into words.
