Show of hands - expose or not - success stories

[ediemarie]

I haven't read this whole thread, but just wanted to weigh in:

I did expose my H's A to my family, and an elder of our church - WORST decision EVER! I thought I was going to get support - instead my H was villified and eventually so was I...it will be 4 years this June and we are STILL dealing with the fall out. I am thankful that my H has stuck it out and has decided to work towards restitution - with ALL parties involved, but it has been a nightmare! And we have had to make some really tough decisions, not to mention that we haven't just had to work to repair our marriage, but also relationships with others. Exposing compounded the problems in our R, it did NOT help at all.

Just keep in mind that when you give information away that information becomes the property of whoever you told and that person will do what they will with it. You can only control what YOU do, you can't control what others do with information you give them.
