My husband cheated on my for three months. With lots of denial and lieing. It has been 2.5 months since he stopped cheating and he has been wonderful. He has done most everything right to help me heal. But I am still hurting so much. I still have distubing flashes of him having sex with the OW and it infurates me. I then become withdrawn and cold to my now loving husband. I have read many books and they talk about how he will heal and step to take to help me heal...but I just don't know how long it will take or how long I can expect my husband to hang in with my wishy washy behavior. Is there anyone out there that can provide me tips on recovering?

Sounds like you could use some good counseling. Good luck.


It is rare for a truly happy woman to try and take a child away from it's father.

Welcome Crystle-

Glad you have found us. It will take about 2 years before you feel like you are back to normal - and that is if your husband continues working on the marriage and helping you heal.

Has no contact been established with the other woman?
