They had an emotional affair for a year and a sexual affair for 6 months

Our relationship lack communication and when i told him i am still struggling with his betrayal, he says he is a loser and I can continue to step on him!

You can look at him and be happy? It’s been five months since I found out amd feel like I will never be able to smile at him the way I once did. My trust in his faithfulness was over the top amd I fear I’ll never be able to see the man I once saw.

All he say is that we are still talking with each other and he still love me and our children and nothing else

It imploded our world, our family! That was 6 months ago. I was devastated, the betrayal from both of them was overwhelming, I was numb for 2 months. My husband was suicidal so I had to care for the man who had broke my heart before taking care of myself. We finally got him the medication he needed for so long. We are so fortunate to find an amazing therapist who we see individually and together. We have committed to work at this. It’s very hard, I’m still sad most days. I ruminate hours a day, but slowly it’s getting better. My husband is better than the man I married, he’s working so hard to make me feel safe. Read more
