These stick out in my mind:

1. I never said anything bad about you to the OW.
2. She's not a bad person.

And my all time favorite:

3. I want to be faithful to OW. I don't want this (cheating on my significant other) to happen again.
Coming from a chronic cheater, this was a bit over the top for me!


Always do right. This will gratify some people, and astonish the rest.
Mark Twain
