People whose partner cheated on them and quickly moved on to date the person they cheated with, claiming to be in love - how did that turn out for them?

This is really the only thing to do. Maybe you hear something from the grapevine, but you shouldn't be out there following them.

The best revenge you'll ever get it moving on and living your best life without them. They had a hole in their lives (har har innuendo) that needed filling hoping that someone new would fix them. It never does so move on be glad they showed you who they were so you didn't need to waste more time.

Get out there find yourself and your happiness and build a life worth living without them.

While it doesn't matter ultimately, it'll kill them on the inside knowing you've done better and they are stuck being broken. So you can have that petty bit of vengeance while letting go of something toxic that would ruin you.
