Bumping into infidelity is often like being run over by a truck, or tank or anything that is huge and overwhelming.
At least, that is what most people say who visit this site and my other main site: Break Free From the Affair.
I did a poll recently showing what feeling most experience once they encounter the infidelity in their marriage or relationship.
This is a progressive scale, i.e. as healing takes place one moves “down” the ladder, so to speak, with increasing comfort and better feelings and thoughts at each level.
Here’s the question I asked:
Upon the discovery of your spouses/partners infidelity, where did you predominately enter on the 8 paths scale?
>>Depression, Victimization, Frozen, Fear -51.7%
>>Guilt, Responsibility, Self Blame – 6.9%
>>Jealousy, Rage, Anger, Resentment – 32.8%
>>Worry, Doubt, Confusion – 5.2%
>>Overwhelm, Impatience, Frustration – 3.4%
>>Acceptance, Patience, Boredom – 0%
>>Hopeful, Optimistic, Positive Thoughts – 0%
>>Happy, Eager, Joy – 0%
