Exposing at EA

[Still Waters]

Here's another crack at a follow-up to my W. No response at all from me may have a stronger impact, but if she is being honest with me then I want to let her know I hear her. But since she could also be lying I don't want to go too far with what I say.


Dear W,

It makes me sad to hear that you are feeling such self-hatred for the affair, but I understand why you would feel that way. I know that it wasn't easy for you to tell me these things, and I thank you for trusting me enough to share these painful feelings with me. I hope that you will be able to share these same feelings with the other people in your life who support you.

And while it is difficult for me to completely trust what you're saying right now, I believe that in time, and through your actions, that trust can be rebuilt.
