I found out a few months ago that my husband cheated on me right after we were married. we will be married 4 years in May. it was a one time thing where alcohol was involved. This is different than a long term affair, but it hurts as much. We've went through counseling, but my self esteem where he is concerned, is shot! I keep feeling something must be wrong with me. How do I cope.

hi olivia, sorry about your situation. Alot of people say it doesnt matter if the A was a ONS or EA/PA, its the BETRAYAL that hurts. I also discovered WHs A long after it happened. It annoys me i lived that time in ignorance about A. It hurts just the same, however long ago A took place. I also suffered a crash in self esteem and convinced myself OW must have done something better. BUT i now realise the only thing she had over me was she was an easy (literally!) escape from Hs problems. The A had nothing to do with YOU as a person. take care of yourself, ad xx
