Today, I ran into my ex-girlfriend from 5 years back. Still bitter, I said, "Hey baby, you remember riding me 5 years ago?" I was then punched in the face and restrained until the police arrived. She'd been having an 8 year anniversary dinner with her husband. FML

You had sex 5 years ago? And she was married for 8 years?

I don't get why the overwhelming majority thinks he's totally in the wrong. She was a jerk plus she cheated on him when all he did was make a snide comment. Not mature, but she's the bad guy here, not OP.

No ones the winner in this situation. OP is just the one complaining like a little girl about it.

She didn't cheat ON him. She cheated WITH him. There's a difference.

She was dating him and being physical with another dude. She cheated on both of them. It would be different if she just had a one night stand with some random. In that case you'd be right.

They called the cops? For a COMMENT? AFTER assaulting you, nonetheless? Wow. Sounds as though you all need help: you, for not letting it go, and her for 1) cheating, and 2) her disgusting oversensitivity.

I see why everyone jumps to the conclusion that her husband deserves to be told, but it's been five years. It's very plausible she HAS told him, and they worked through it. They might have even been in a rough patch in their relationship, and taking a break. OP was wrong and disrespectful, cheating wife or not. You cannot harass people like that.

I'd say the larger harassment here was against the OP. The wife had an affair THREE YEARS into her marriage. She should be getting the punch in the face if anyone!

Also the couple clearly hasn't "worked through it" otherwise his reaction would have been much more subdued.

If the husband knew, he could have worked the issues out with his wife. It doesn't mean that seeing the guy she cheated with wouldn't piss him off. I think with problems like that it's possible to continue with the relationship, but it isn't something you completely get over because it ruins the trust you have in the person. Seeing the guy, and him saying what he did would bring up every ounce of anger the husband felt when he learned of the betrayal.

Because he was still bitter from the break up. That's what the FML said anyway.

Yet another example of the basics your mother should have taught you young: if you have nothing nice to say, kindly shut the **** up. ;p (Some paraphrasing: my mother never said it quite that way.) ;) 5 years is too long to walk around bitter. Grow up a bit and do yourself a favour: just let it go and move on with your life. Sorry, but by not letting it go, whatever happened before, just got even worse because of it. ;p

OP outed her to her husband that she had cheated on him (8 year anniversary, bitter ex from 5 years ago?). He probably didn't know she was married back then and is bitter because he got dumped by a cheating hore. And put a shirt on.

You must be joking!!! This woman was his girlfriend!! Not just a random shag, but his actual girlfriend. Meanwhile she'd been married for maybe 3 years whilst they were going out. If this was your wife, who would you be more upset with, the idiot who didn't know your wife was married, or your wife.

63- I completely agree with you: it also sounds to me like be Did get cheated on by a married woman, and I imagine it Did hurt him back then. But 5 years is a long time to be solidly bitter about it, don't you think? I never said she was faultless, absolutely not. Only that letting it to would be doing himself a favour. I have been cheated on, before I met my wife, and found out it wasn't just a one time thing with one partner either. It hurt, sure. I was resentful and angry and we broke up. Eventually, bit by bit, I let it go though. It wasn't doing me any good to hang on to it, and I needed to get over it, to move on. And I did. Now, I occasionally run into her in public. And do I say mean things or such? Not at all. I pity her husband, but hope she's changed and become a better person, nothing more. :) Oh, and as far as the shirtless pic goes, I have no intention of changing it unless I'm actually offending someone with it. It's up to remind me that I got a fatter, while trying to work it off. :p

Does nobody realise that op did not, in fact, deserve it, because his ex-girlfriend cheated on him with her husband.

I think people have said that because it was a pretty sleezy, douche comment, because it would be hard to miss that she was with another guy, but I'm on your side! This woman is a manipulative bitch!

That's why I voted for BOTH YDI and FYL. YDI for being a douchenozzle and holding a FIVE YEAR GRUDGE, and FYL for her cheating on him.
