D day was just over 1 month ago so I appreciate it's still really early on, we have decided to trying and work things out and WH is saying/doing all the right things and we've had a lot of honest open conversations about things we never have before so that has been helpful. I just feel so up and down and I'm fine one day and then upset the next and he's telling me all these nice things but then I wonder if he means them or is just saying it to keep me happy it's just the whole trust thing, every time the phone goes I panic etc and he will show me and tell me who it is and let's me have his phone and he's even sent me pictures when he's out to show where he is which makes me feel better but I just feel a bit pathetic and it's not normal to have to do that. Don't really know what I want from this post I just feel a bit lost and am wondering if it's possible to ever get that trust back again?

That’s normal sister.

What is important about reconciliation is the work.
One month seems really fast for. Cheater to make that radical turn, healing and change of personality.
When things are so fast usually is no regret, is camouflage.

The cheater rugsweeping the betrayal and managing the betrayed partner (who above all would like to persuade themselves that the betrayal was not real, that it was some terrible mistake and whatnot, instead of understanding that their partner IS a cheater, is a Liar, Is having No regrets, and is going to do that again and again, just most carefully so you won’t catch them).

I tell you because if you are devastated now, trust when I say you will be even more devastated if one day you’ll discover that reconciliation was just another lie, another betrayal, with more to come (or continue).

Are you absolutely sure that your husband is changed so deeply and seeking help, accepting all consequences of his betrayal, even if those consequences were you would decide to abandon him one day?

The rollercoaster is normal, it will get worse, then slowly better. But is not worthy to ride that nightmare carousel unless you really believe is worthy

You are welcome to send me a PM if you think I can help you. I respond when I can.
