Defacto, I completely agree. There's my experience and ww experience and while both could be different, it doesn't change the way the experience made/makes her feel.
I don't discount that and have done a lot of work on pursuing, self-esteem, etc so that sex with anyone isn't my go to cure for insecurity or feeling alone/apart from anyone who cares about me - as was the case largely with her. I made her essentially my everything.
With that, she can either choose over time to accept that, do work on her own and heal or hold on to it and nothing will be the same. I have the same choices when it comes to the lying, cheating, affair hurt she did.
I continue to wish you the best and hope you and your wife and able to make choices to do the work and move closer towards each other, assuming that's what you BOTH want.
