      It’s definitely up there!!! I’ve lost a child and mom both to cancer…those pains were deadlier to me, but betrayal is DEFINITELY right after! I just told my unfaithful this yesterday.😢

      ⁠@@kquestvision7248 I respect your feelings. I’ve lost a young mother to illness & my daughter (32 yrs) & for me the Intention of Betrayal (2yrs) is even more painful & deadly for me. Intentionally done. My loved ones didn’t choose to leave my life & I do trust my Lord to hold them. My husband hurt me for his selfishness.

    One of the worst things my wife ever said to me after d day came out of the narcissistic bubble of a wayward spouse. I was trying to answer the question that was consuming me. How far back do I need to go to find when we had something real and I wasn’t being lied to? She answered my questions up to a point and I kept trying to get the whole truth. She said How can you do this to me?
    I can report that over time trust was rebuilt. D day was 20 years ago. Like rebuilding a home, rebuilding trust starts at the foundation. I pushed that all things great and small needed to be true. Where are you going? When will you be back? Who else will be there? Will you call if you’re running late? Eventually we overcame the affair. Some people might say that it is always there like ghosts in a haunted house. The thing is we got through it so I don’t believe in ghosts. Last week, we made it to our 32nd anniversary.

    In my opinion, genuine faith and trust are gone forever after a betrayal. Both are based on facts: facts that state, "In my heart [faith] and mind [trust] I know my spouse will never betray me. After the betrayal, those permanent facts change forever. Any form of building trust have easy workarounds. I recommend to betrayers to prove to themselves daily they can be trusted and let it go at that.

    The unfaithful has to own their sh*t. No reservations, no qualifications. They also have to recognize and acknowledge the pain they have caused. When the betrayed confronts you, when the hurt flows out from them to you, you have to accept it. Don't blame shift/deny, don't excuse yourself. If there were demotivational issues in the marriage, you will get your chance to bring them up eventually. Your betrayed has to be able to get at least some of the pain off their chest first. If you absorb that pain without anger or judgement, you will be able to air your concerns, too, eventually. If you take responsibility, your betrayed will see the change of heart and you will get credit for it. Eventually. If not, that might be a boundary that you set for the relationship. You can't be a doormat going forward, but maybe at first you will have to act like one. After all, you caused a lot of pain. Don't devalue their suffering by denying it.

    It's one thing to betray and destroy your own spouse "which is bad enough" but then to also betray and destroy the affair partners spouse that had nothing to do with it at all ? Not to mention kids and family . How narcissistic and self entitled do you have to be to destroy so many lives for your own selfish pleasures ?

    I'm a betrayed and my wife is doing a lot. But she gets defensive and accuses me of attacking her if I express negative opinions. No yelling. Like once I said she was cold hearted (during the affair) and she said I was attacking her. Even talking about the affair in general will make her squirm if I do it "too much". She wants breaks from talking about it. I want breaks from thinking about it. I don't get them. She does. What is talking about it too much? What is considered attacking and what is just expressing anger and pain?
    Also I have been pursuing her and it's making me feel uncomfortable because I wish for her to pursue me and to win me back. Why am I the only one pursuing?

      Thank you for responding. It means a lot to me. I have started the boot camp. I have read the article and sent it to her. I've never felt like this in my life even though I've suffered from depression since I was a child. I didn't know these depths were possible. I hope to save enough to enroll in the programs soon. Thank you and the rest of the team there.

    I told my wayward, I am not in love with him anymore. Because that man was an illusion. As he was living a double life, and I was lied to for 23 to 24 years.
    I just asked him last week to tell me what he wanted in a wife, if we were to recommit? I also asked, what type of husband would I be getting in return? I gave him over a week to think this over. Tonight we are supposed to talk about this. I have to keep the communication going, or we might as well as divorce.

      He sees two therapist a week one csat one csat for EMDR. Plus paid for couses with Rob Weiss. I will tell him, but I'm done wasting money on this myself. Coming up to way over250,000 dollars on his affairs and his recovery.

    Or how about-I don’t trust myself, I am actually not trustworthy yet, I actually have a whole lot of work to do and not just kid myself that I’m doing it when I’m still doing pretty much everything still not to look at myself. It’s my problem that I just look like I am something I am not and I’m actually really really skilled at that. Of course you shouldn’t trust me… and maybe how I can even make that work for me-I’ll make you the bad guy… over and over

  • @KimB-ns1go
    @KimB-ns1go 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

    There's no way I would be loving towards someone, or fight for a untrustworthy relationship, or be intimate or close with ANYONE without trusting them! What's the point of trust in that case? Maybe I'm misunderstanding this - but that sounds completely wild, whether you're just "shooting for it" or actually doing it! :/

    I am the unfaithful spouse, and I am SO remorseful and guilty and feel horrible. I feel like a lot of resources show the dynamic of the unfaithful spouse being frustrated with the betrayed spouse being upset still, or that the unfaithful spouses are having a hard time cutting ties, or seeing what they did wasnt that bad. I am the opposite. I am utterly devastated by what i did. I'm begging for forgiveness and doing everything in my power to show him I've changed. Do you have any advice with dealing with the guilt and shame? My spouse is hanging our marriage over our head and i feel like if i say or do one thing wrong, he will leave me. I feel like its so far away from him even coming close to moving on. Any advice?

      This!!! This is exactly what I’m going thru. I’m trying so hard. I’m in therapy. I’m so full of guilt and shame..my partner switches back and forth between wanting to work on our relationship to saying it’s too soon to and that I’ve killed our marriage and ruined his life. I own that, I sit in the pain with him but sometimes I feel so hopeless….it’s been six months…will this ever get any better??

    I honestly believe that trust must be restored on BOTH sides. If someone reached the point to betray their spouse they evidently did not trust their spouse anymore as being able to work things out, to cerate a relationship made of reciprocal support, complicity. So as a betrayed spouse I always think my husband crushed my trust, but somehow he THOUGHT there was no hope within our relationship to create a working and healthy rapport. I am NOT justifying what he did that was vile and unfair, but it helps me understand.

      No, don’t try blaming betrayal on someone else. An adult talks to their spouse, not blames it on them AFTER doing an unforgivable, cruel act.
