Just cleaned out some writings that I wrote a year or two ago. Life has gotten so very much better. Time has been the great healer for us. Time is what it has taken to get the rest of what was needed to get life back on track after an affair. Time has been what it has taken to learn acceptance; positive, realistic thinking; commitment to myself and our marriage...OK, and maybe an antidepressant or two but I still believe the key ingredient has been time and lots of it. It's been 3 1/2 years since I discovered the affair. To be honest once in a while I am amazed at how much it still hurts but much more often these days, I am amazed at how far we've come, how well we are treating each other and I am so thankful that we kept going even when we had no idea how we would get out of the mess we'd gotten into. More and more days I can honestly say that we are living proof that gleaning wisdom from however it comes your way, patience, persistence, and love can lead to a very happy life together even after an affair. We are pretty peaced...Yahoo for us! Wish you all the very best.
