Netizen No Longer Believe in Karma After Seeing Friends Struggle While Their Cheating Exes Succeed
A netizen has questioned karma after seeing two of their female friends struggle while their cheating ex-boyfriends prosper.
Recently, a Reddit user, Jim-Jimmie, shared about two of their friends, described as wonderful women with beauty, intelligence, and great personalities who were in long-term relationships but were cheated on.
Despite the heartbreak, both handled the situation with grace. There were no dramatic confrontations, no indirect social media posts, and no badmouthing their exes. Instead, they simply tried to move on with their lives. One of them even entered a new relationship.
However, the netizen gets frustrated after seeing how the ex-boyfriends, who had cheated on their friends, ended up happily married to the women they had affairs with. They now have families and are living comfortably abroad.
Meanwhile, their friends have been struggling. One is dealing with mental health issues and recently lost her job. The other has faced a streak of bad luck, her house was destroyed by a typhoon, she was robbed, and despite earning well, she is now close to bankruptcy due to her mother’s ongoing hospital bills.
The sender started to question why those who were wronged seem to suffer more while those who caused the pain appear to be living their best lives. They expressed sadness for their friends, feeling that life has been unfair to them.
Here is the full post:
“Parang hindi na ako naniniwala sa karma
I have two friends who are in their mid-30s. Both wonderful women and great catch talaga sila (beauty & brains, super nice, funny, gaan kasama, etc). They were both in long-term relationships but ended up getting cheated on. Bilang classy girlies, they handled the situation gracefully. Wala masyadong drama when they found out, no violent confrontation whatsoever, walang pagpaparinig sa social media kahit subtle lang, at walang sinabing masama tungkol sa mga gagong exes nila. Basta they tried their best na lang to move on and thankfully, they did naman. One of them is in a relationship na ulit.
Anyway, ito yung part na naiinis talaga ako. Yung mga gagong ex nila both ended up marrying yung mga kabit nila. Parehas nang pamilyado and living their best lives abroad. Samantalang yung isang friend ko struggling with her mental health and nawalan ng trabaho. Tapos yung isa naman sobrang minamalas din, nasira bahay dahil sa bagyo, nanakawan, and kahit malaki kumita, on the verge of bankruptcy na kasi in and out sa hospital yung mom for the past 3 years.
Bakit kung sino pa naagrabyado sila pa ang minamalas ng malala?? Bakit yung mga ex nila sobrang ayos ng buhay and thriving?? I feel really bad for my friends. Sobrang hindi nila deserve ‘to. Ang unfair talaga ng mundo!!“
