After discovering infidelity, a partner who's been betrayed is likely to feel traumatized. If there's to be any hope of reconciliation, the cheater should prepare for these reactions—and more.
Your partner may have worked very hard to create the best possible “us.” If so, their self-esteem may take a huge hit because of your cheating. Your spouse might suddenly feel unattractive and unlovable, no matter the reality.By cheating, you have violated your partner’s trust in you and your relationship. This trust must be re-earned, and that takes both time and effort. For now, you need to accept that your significant other is likely to question every little thing you do and say .
None of these responses is easy to tolerate, especially if you have stopped cheating and are now being honest. When that happens, you will need to make a choice. You can react to your partner’s emotions, becoming defensive and making things worse, or you can swallow your pride, your ego, and your desire to be right, allowing your partner to feel whatever it is that needs to be felt while you continue a path of rigorous honesty so you can re-earn trust and heal your relationship.Steffens, B.
