How can this letter writer just forget about her husband’s emotional affair?
: I am having a very hard time putting my husband’s one year of emotional cheating with his old college flame behind me. It’s been two years since I found messages on his phone, and I’m still thinking and crying about it. He insists that he’s stopped, but I have no proof; in fact, he has kept all of her contact information. I’m still going back and reading their very intimate conversations, and I’m going crazy. I just can’t believe he did that.
Is this some kind of crisis? I just want to find my inner peace and calmness. I haven’t forgiven him, but I pretend everything is fine. He doesn’t want to talk about it and encourages me to forget it. How can I put this behind me?Of course finding these texts turned your world upside down. You were doubly blindsided: first by his act of emotionally cheating, and second by his hurtful comments about your marriage.move on from this and what you may need to do so.
I’d also encourage you to stop reading his messages. It doesn’t solve anything, nor will it make you feel better; in fact, it’s only keeping you stuck in a cycle of despair and making you feel “crazy.” If anything, you are probably revisiting these messages because you haven’t been able to fully accept that this happened.
