This is my first post.
I had and affair for 1 year, 8 months.
D-day was July 8. 41 days ago.
Why isnt my wife exhibiting any of these things the BS is supposed to do?
Even my counselor is puzzled.

Literally 30 years since DDay. I have been reading SI daily for months. I find it very helpful. There are many triggers, but there are many things that I never dealt with. My guilt and shame are with me daily. This site is helping me come to grips with what I did - still trying to fully understand why. It did get me to regularly thank my wife for giving me a second chance. That triggered her a bit since we don’t normally talk about my A. But it has proven helpful. We are getting closer every day. R is not easy and it is not quick. It is worth it. Do you ever truly forgive yourself? I’ll let you know if it happens.

Thank you so much for reposting this. It is so important to not just read this, but to live it every day for them and their recovery...something I have not done. I am going to read this daily and listen and act. Thank you!!

I sent to my WW. I'm not sure what I intended, but it described me so very accurately. I guess I just wanted her to read something that is so eloquently put and dead on the money!

Great post, lots to unpack and I've reread it a few times - sums up a lot of other resources. Hope I can make it to R one day.

This is great! Very accurate in describing what a betrayed spouse goes through… it’s made me feel really thankful about how my wayward spouse has handled things even though it’s been years.

Hello, BS here. I have not shared my story yet, but I have found some comfort reading around the forum and this post which I have shared with my H whom is currently trying hard to mend to what he did (ONS) and feels powerless when I have my moments.
Thanks for sharing!
