Kaizen,

I know she doesn't owe me anything, I'm just frustrated cause she acting like life just goes on when it can't. There's still a major issue here, no?

Today, a different story. It's amazing how your emotions ebb and flow during a sitch like this.

W seems to be on the good side of wanting to work it out, but she's annoying me because I think she has the just "sweep it under the rug" mentality. She not doing anything out of the ordinary to help her or me.

I have accumulated a bunch of knowledge from this forum and in the DR book and I just want to throw all the material at her, but know I can't. Should I be telling her what to do? Guiding her? or... should I sit back and wait till she gets moving. Why do I have to do the heavy lifting, when W is the one who had the A???? Doesn't she owe me?

Today the sitch is on repeat in my head and I'm getting pissed. I feel like I should be yelling at her, but know I can't! Frustrated and venting!!!

How do I proceed?


Hello FindAir,

I'm so sorry for the situation you are in.

It is easy to be conflicted when you have so many emotions and thoughts going through your head!

Little compares to the devastation people feel when they discover their spouse has been unfaithful. Couples often struggle to get past intense emotional pain, mistrust, resentment and never ending arguments about the betrayal. Healing from infidelity is achievable for both of you with the right support and tools.

You are at a very fragile point in this relationship and it would be extremely helpful to know what your next move should be. Feel free to give me a call at 303-444-7004 to discuss how we can best help you determine what to do next.

Thank you Cristy,

2 things...

Fortunately, I called and set up an appointment, I will begin the coaching session tomorrow. Happy about that!

Unfortunately, W and I tried to have a conversation and it didn't go to well. I guess I should of waited until after my first coaching session. Walking the tight rope!

Scare a squirrel that's not there?


There are moments in this life when you are so confident in the rightness of your actions, that not even for a second do you consider the option that you might be wrong.

Purchased 10 DB Coaching sessions and had my first session today. First it feels great to puke everything up and get my sitch out. I've done it a few times w/ close friends and IC (which I gave up to do DB coaching) and I have to say each time I do it feel GOOD just to talk about it!

W and I are still just biz partners and roommates. No R talks and no emotions. Coach says I should just act normal and not pursue. Coach also says to watch W carefully, actions not words.

Although I haven't pulled the trigger and cxl my flight res for our family trip Saturday, I think I'm going to. I need a little me time. Plus since both my W and I are in the pulling back posture, I don't feel like walking on eggshells for a week, plus it won't be good for the kids.

Hey All,

It's been about a week since my last post.

Family is on vacation since 4/8, I decided to stay back cause of my sitch.

Completed reading DR and had some good alone time to think. Not much contact with W other than a few text about kids/biz. I've Facetimed, text and spoken to my kids several times.

I thought I would get some sort of reaction from W staying back and not contacting her, but seems like she's going on her mary way in life. She's not showing much emotion or remorse etc. Don't know how I should read that at 5 weeks after bomb.

I guess I was expecting more.

I still have the emotion rollercoaster ride feeling the whole spectrum. Will it ever level out?

Yes - it sounds like you are still expecting things from her. Once your expectations stay at zero, then I think the roller coaster will level out.

So you had a whole week free from family responsibilities. What did you do to GAL?
