I was married to a 'wife guy' for 10 years. He cheated on me, so I ended it.

• I was married for 10 years to a man I was in a relationship with for 14 years.

• I left his account because he cheated on me.

• Some people tried to blame me for not being more understanding.

I was in a relationship with a man who wrote "devoted husband" on his website. The guy loved and cherished me, according to everyone. I traveled the world in my early 20s and he waited at home in London to post on Facebook.

My mother said there were not many men who would do that.

Another woman told him that she didn't think she appreciated how lucky she was.

I ended things because he cheated on me. I was seen as the bad person because I upset a nice man. He moved into my sister's place for three months before my parents lent him an apartment. My neighbors still don't like me for tearing apart our family.

He created a brand around me

My ex- husband created a strong personal brand by flooding everyone's timelines with his love for me. He was a woman's man.

Social media is not an accurate depiction of a person's daily life. The graduation photos and praise for my accomplishments did not convey that he was rarely at home.

While I was being sliced open to deliver our baby, the selfies of him in blue scrubs brought him effusive praise. When I returned from the hospital with our baby, he was at a Christmas party.

I think my ex-husband wanted to be seen as a hero because he was so popular. Readers of childhood fairy tales know that there is always a villain. The hero cops have their bad guys, while the wife guy has his good guys.

Being a devoted husband is a label that renders almost any negative characteristic void. His displays of emotion andvulnerability made people overlook his flirting, excessive partying, and questionable ways.

He shared a selfies on the rare occasion he did change a diaper.

We live in a society where women are told to be grateful for the smallest amount of help from men. Even if you find your wife attractive, the bar for men is so low that it's worth celebrating.

Society celebrates a man who talks about being sexually attracted to his wife as if he's a hero.

There is no female equivalent of a wife guy. Women are expected to be devoted to their husbands.

We can only hope that the recent escapades of Ned Fulmer and Adam Levine will bring an end to the era of the wife guy.
