Goodbye to Infidelity Pain

Anyone experiencing the infidelity of a spouse or partner, knows the resultant pain. It can be excruciating.

In the first video of the 20 part series (Surviving Infidelity: The Top 10 Questions People Ask and the Top 10 Questions People SHOULD Ask” the topic of the longevity of pain was covered.

In this video surviving an affair the question is posed: “How does one get rid of the pain?”

When Will the Pain Go Away?

Surviving infidelity means facing the pain and agony of discovery, one of the worst experiences of any thoughtful alive person.

A primary question in surviving an affair is initially, How long will this pain last?

I’ve created a video posing this question below.

Please leave your comment below the video. I and everyone else will appreciate what you say.

Healing from Infidelity

Here are more comments from readers on their journey of healing:

>>>I have gone through the pain, and attained better emotional stability. And now i am giving my husband a last chance to improve, also planning a healthy break-up if he does not give any assurance to change himself. Sometimes I feel he has sexual addiction.

>>>Trying to see the big picture and be the only one to work on improving the marriage. By charging neutral, not reacting with my communications, I have kept our marriage afloat. My husband has dropped legal dissolution, and our communication is better than it ever has been. Like you said, make the marriage better than ever.

>>>My husband and I have been trying to reconcile for 2 months. He has left 2 times and always come back (we have 4 small children) your insights helped me realize what I was going thru and what to expect. I think we are finished now but I am still wondering what we’ll be up against.I often forward your emails to him. The most telling one was the most recent about therapy-it was us to a tee. He participated only to have an out and say it didn’t work.

>>>The course made me see the mistakes I have been making and showed me the depth of my pain, worded my feelings and, sadly, made me feel “one of the crew” of unhappy people to whom this has happened. It made me feel better, too, to know that many other people had experienced the same terrible emotions, insecurities and doubts and got through them, hopefully, for good. So I immediately ordered the book and now, three months after I found out about my husbands affair and passionate love for the other person I stopped crying every day, he stayed, says that he wants to work on the marriage and I think about the next course for my less-than-satisfactory life and marriage. I’m also now quite capable of thinking about divorce without crying and see it as something that won’t break me if it happens. Thank you.
