I'm OK with resetting the "trust" clock. She's got to be fairly sure she won't get those same old feelings again. Respect is earned when we live up to our promises - when we do what we say, when we lead from the front. Meeting mutually agreed upon expectations builds respect.
My objection to robx's post is that I will never "respect" her decision to have an affair.
