This situation actually happened to some friends mine. Except it wasn’t revenge, it just kind of happened.

Both couples were good friends with one another, there was an affair between two of the partners in the relationship, very messy breakup, etc etc. The cheating partners both moved out and eventually got married. In the aftermath, the non-cheating partners ended up together.

What happened to the cheaters? Did they lived happily ever after

I know a couple of couples who did this. Cheaters broke up many moons ago. The cheatees are still together. The female cheater was such a pious twat. Just feel sorry for the kids involved in a very messy situation.

Just looked up pious because my definition was exact opposite of yours and here I am learning that you can use it sarcastically to mean the opposite (in a sense)

No. in context it means a holier than thou religious narcissist. Someone who espouses their own righteousness, forgives their own transgressions but hates those that don't make them feel like their faith is special. It's not a matter of sarcasm, it's just the fact that faith is a form of narcissism and so those most addicted to it are as hypocritical as you'd expect.

I couldn't encapsulate her better than that... Especially having espoused the sanctity of marriage a year previously.

I know a partner swap that happened almost a couple decades ago. The cheaters are still together, the cheatees broke up a long time ago. The cheaters were otherwise such good people, and the cheatees were both kind of pompous pricks.

My cheating ex at some point bought an apartment with her co-worker , also new partner, also same sport club. Seems happy because they can actually stand seeing each other 24/7/3+years. I'm not even mad bc I couldn't.
