We are approaching our 1st year anniversary of the date I was planning to meet the OM. My H is, understandably, experiencing much pain. He says he has these 'tapes' that he can't turn off and as a result is withdrawing from me both emotionally and physically. The affair has been over for aover a year. How can I, the one who caused the pain to begin with, support him through this?

Just be there for him. Let him go through his pain. Listen to him when he talks. Acknowledge his pain, never belittle it. Completely accept the role you played in his pain. Ask him what you can do to help him. Be patient and understanding and give him time. I think over time it will start to fade some.

Agree with shedawg...remind him you CHOSE him, you want him, you love him, you are exactly where you want to be...with him.
