When do you know whether you can get over the affair or not? When do you know if it's time to move beyond the marriage because the damage is far beyond what you can handle? No matter how hard you want the marriage to work, how do you know that it won't because it's too hard to move beyond all the "stuff"? My H says that he's just going with the flow and he doesn't think I can get over the affair. I'm beginning to think he's right. How do you know?
