Hey Reddit, I just need to vent. I’m Abhay, 21, and I’ve been a mess since last Valentine’s week. My girlfriend Mrunal, who I’d been with for four years, cheated on me. We met during our diploma , I was in Mechanical, she was in Civil. We were solid, or so I thought.

Things started falling apart in January. We had an ugly fight, and after that, she started pulling away. I tried calling her in February, but she ignored me. She’d joined a coaching center in Koyalnagar, Rourkela since one year and I didn’t even know where she was staying until I found her address on Gmail because she is a shoppingwholic. Desparate, I went to see her. I got to her place around 9 PM and waited outside near a closed tea stall.

Then it happened. A muscular guy rolled up on a Pulsar and parked near her room, close to a jasmine tree. After a bit, two girls came out and started chatting with him. One of them was my girlfriend Mrunal. I hadn’t seen her in eight months, and she looked different little chubby, her curves more noticeable. I was just staring, trying to process it.

The other girl left after some time , and it was just Mrunal and this guy. Then he pulled her close, hugged her, kissed her, and started groping her , one hand on her breast , the other on her ass, pressing and squeezing hard. I was frozen, like, “What the hell am I seeing?” My heart sank. Part of me wanted to storm over and confront them, but the other part stopped me. He was a 6-foot gym dude, and I’m just a skinny 49 kg guy . I wouldn’t stand a chance.

It got worse. He flipped her around, bent her over, and started dry humping her right there. I felt so helpless, just watching. Eventually, they stopped. She headed back to her room, and as she walked away, he slapped her butt, hopped on his bike, and took off. I stood there, crushed, unable to move or do anything. I returned home that same night, feeling completely broken.

Four years, man. Four years with her, and this is how it ends. Since that day, I’ve tried to reach out to her, to connect somehow, but I’ve failed every time. I feel so helpless, like I’m stuck in this loop of wanting her back but knowing what she did. i don't know what to do .
