Your spouse knows about your affair, and things will never be the same.
Every morning you wake up with a pit in your stomach, wishing it was all a dream. You wonder how your spouse will feel today.
When they're feeling good, it fills you with hope. You two laugh at the dinner table, and life feels normal again. You think, "Maybe we're putting all this behind us."
But things turn on a dime. Your cell phone vibrates and you see your spouse stiffen. You tell them you're running to the store, and they get suspicious. You calmly hand over your phone, but inside you're panicking. You didn't do anything wrong this time, but you're still nervous.
On the bad days, you feel completely lost. You want to wrap your spouse up in a big hug, but you're trying to respect their need for space. Some days they want all the details of your affair, and you don't know how to answer. Whatever you say just makes things worse.
You're barely sleeping, and you can't focus at work. You're terrified they'll ask for a divorce. You've Googled, "Am I a narcissist?" more times than you care to admit.
You don't understand how you could have done such a thing. You never thought you would cheat. You have no idea who you are or how you let your life get to this point.
Maybe you want to:
-
rebuild trust with your spouse and have fun together again
-
talk to your spouse about the affair without it turning into an argument
-
stop feeling so ashamed, depressed, and on edge
-
end the urges to text your affair partner
-
make sure you never have another affair again
