A Lot has to do with forgiveness, prayer, reading, and not holding on to the bitterness.
I found by holding on to the bitterness your only hurting yourself,your life, your marriage etc.

If it hadn't been for ALOT of prayers and my great support group (all you gals here and there) then I would have NEVER made it. Some made me strong, some made me confident, some gave me great ideas, and most of all support to do what I do.

First oviously are the Bible, the Marriage Builder's books and just recently the Books by Joel Osteen (saw him on Independent channel formerly PAX) he is facinating and makes alot of sence. www.joelosteen.com
Joel has some postive ways to get rid of emotional baggage, pent up anger and resentment,bitterness and more, all are bible based, I learned a lot from watching one progam of his on tv and Intend on reading those books. Most library's carry theese books.
Though some of the other BW's might not like me saying this, I have learned ton's by reading/posting on TOW and, the Other Child EZ board's it really puts seroius perspetive on the whole situation and not one side of it.
Ladies our husbands are not innocent and we are not the only one they have deeply hurt.
I also recommend CHRISTIAN COUNSULING for both individual and marraige counsuling(not just regular)
I have learned that I played a part in my H having an affair,ladies listen to what your H's or even BF's are say to you in all area's of your relationships, they are telling you want they need and want ,but we have to wake up and listen.
