Melissa, a 33-year-old woman, recently wrote to us with what felt like a desperate cry for help. She is engaged to the love of her life and is very happy in her relationship, but something has seriously troubled her. Melissa recently had a direct conversation with her future mother-in-law, who revealed some details about her son’s past that Melissa is struggling to accept. She shared her story with us and is looking for some good advice from our readers because she doesn’t know what to do about this unwanted truth she has learned.

Melissa is a 33-year-old woman who has been through a lot of tough times in her life. Now that she has finally found happiness, it seems like she might lose it again because of something she found out about her fiancé by accident. Melissa wrote an emotional letter and shared her story with us. She’s looking for advice from people who understand her pain and struggle. She believes that only someone who can really feel her situation could help her.

She started her letter by saying, “It feels like my life is falling apart again, and I still can’t believe this is happening to me for the second time. I have a very painful experience from my past relationship, which was full of narcissism, toxic behavior, and cheating. I barely survived after a very hard breakup, and my fiancé Michael was the one who helped me heal.

Michael and I met 4 years ago. We didn’t fall in love right away, but we felt a strong attraction to each other. Love came later as we got to know each other better, and our bond grew so strong that we couldn’t spend a day without each other.

Melissa shared, “My partner Michael is everything I want in a man. He’s kind, caring, and open. He’s emotionally available and stable. He’s always been there for me and makes me feel like a better person who is worthy of love.

When we got engaged, it was the happiest moment of my life. I was making plans for our future, believing that the bad times were over and only good things were ahead. I wanted us to have our own house, lots of kids, and to spend my whole life with Michael. He was just as happy as I was.

I knew our relationship meant a lot to Michael because his previous marriage was unhappy too, but he said they parted on good terms—or so I thought. I believed everything he told me, but now I realize I shouldn’t have. I learned the painful truth about my future husband by accident. Bad things happen like that—when you’re happiest and least expecting them.

Melissa explained, “My relationship with my future in-laws is very warm and friendly. They treat me like their own daughter. But I once noticed that my future mother-in-law, Stephanie, seemed unsure about our engagement and marriage. When I asked her why, she just hugged me and didn’t say anything. I thought I was imagining it and never brought it up again.

Recently, while I was having coffee on the terrace, Stephanie called me. She sounded worried and asked if Michael was around. I said no, he was at work, and she asked if she could come over in 10 minutes. She said she had something urgent to discuss with me before the wedding and that it had to be now or never. I agreed, and she arrived very quickly.

She sat down in front of me and told me she needed to share something difficult but important. She asked me not to interrupt, and I listened as she revealed details about Michael’s past that made me feel like I might faint.

Melissa revealed, “I found out that about 8 years ago, Michael cheated on his ex-wife. She forgave him, and they tried to work on their marriage. But when his ex was pregnant, Michael cheated again. She lost the baby, and Michael didn’t support her at all after everything that happened. Their marriage ended, and Michael never took responsibility for his actions.

To make things worse, Michael also cheated on the woman he was cheating with. It sounds like a complete mess, but to me, it was clear that something was really wrong with Michael.

Now, I feel like running away from him, even during our wedding. I love him deeply, but I feel foolish staying with a man who could do such things. I consider myself a smart woman, and I can’t ignore the red flags and pretend this won’t happen to me too.

At the same time, it feels unfair to leave someone I love who loves me back. I’m torn and struggling with what to do. What Michael did shows a serious lack of morals. Do you think he can change for the sake of our love, or should I break up with him and run away?
