He Found Out His Wife Cheated After He Donated A Kidney To Her, So He Forced Her To Call Her Parents And Siblings To Confess About The Infidelity
This 30-year-old man and his wife, who is also 30, have been together for 10 years and married for six years. They also have a 4-year-old son.
However, just a few months ago, his wife needed a kidney transplant, so he actually donated one of his organs to her.
They both felt extremely lucky that he was able to pass all of the matching tests – including blood type compatibility, tissue typing, and more. Plus, he was thankfully considered a “healthy donor” after he underwent his own extensive medical testing.
“The surgery itself took a few hours, and we did home recovery for three months. I got a lot of thanks from my wife’s parents, her siblings, and then finally, of course, my wife,” he recalled.
But after he didn’t even hesitate to help out his wife during her time of need, he found out one month into their recovery that their relationship had been a lie.
Apparently, she confessed to cheating on him during a one-night stand many years ago. As for why she chose to come clean then, his wife claimed that she simply couldn’t keep the infidelity a secret anymore, especially after he sacrificed his kidney for her.
“She seemed extremely remorseful,” he said, “And I believed her that it was a one-time thing.”
Despite that, he was left feeling devastated. Overwhelmed by anger, he wasn’t even able to speak to his wife for an entire week.
Then, last weekend, he asked his sister to watch their son for a couple of days. He wanted to “blow off a lot of steam,” and he just didn’t want his son around to witness that.

His sister agreed to watch after his son, too, so once his child was gone, he finally unleashed all of his feelings on his wife.
“I don’t usually get angry much, but last weekend, I did. All my pent-up emotions bubbled up, and I said a lot of horrible things to my wife,” he explained.
He hoped that his wife would at least have something to say for herself, but that wasn’t the case. Rather, she just stayed quiet and kept crying, which only infuriated him more.
Afterward, he wound up forcing his wife to call both her parents and her siblings to confess to cheating on him.
“That was the first time my wife said something, and she seemed really hesitant about it. But I told her I would leave her if she didn’t,” he revealed.
“And so she did. She called her parents and her siblings and told them that she cheated on me.”
Once his wife owned up to her mistakes, he actually felt a lot better, and much of his anger subsided. She, on the other hand, has been crying a ton since their argument. Still, he doesn’t even have the emotional energy to console her.
“All I’m telling my wife is to not cry when our son is there and to do it alone in the bathroom or somewhere else,” he vented.
Now, with their marriage on the rocks, he’s not sure if he handled the situation appropriately or if making his wife own up to her cheating was the wrong thing to do.
How would you feel if you made such a large sacrifice for your spouse and later found out they betrayed you by cheating? Did he go too far by making his wife admit that she cheated to her family or not?
