Can You Save Your Marriage After an Affair?
If you are someone who recently cheated on your spouse and wish to confess, you have to know the following points in order to be able to deal with the changes that are about to come. Remember that depending on your spouse, it will take time for your relationship to come back on track. And that is not guaranteed, but you have to remember that you should put in your 100% if you wish to save your marriage.
However, many specialists claim that the divorced couple usually do not do so because of the infidelity, but because either the betrayed spouse has given up trying completely, or the spouse that cheated continues to be selfish and untrustworthy.
So how do you have your spouse regain that trust that had been lost before?
You can visit a black magic specialist to help your partner overcome the difficulties he or she is bound to suffer from, or you can take the following steps:
Man up. Tell your spouse about the extent of the affair in one go. Like ripping off a band aid. It has been noticed that partners leave not because of the affair, but because of the truth that comes out drip by drip, being just as agonising every time. Share the vital details about the affair- like how long it lasted and what you told your affair partner about your marriage. That way you can let the spouse the opportunity to forgive you with wide open eyes. It can be scary, but it is the right thing to do.
You have to answer every question your spouse has and you have to do it with total honesty. Be willing to share with him or her everything that makes them feel more secure about the relationship- be it sharing information about texts, posts, bills. Although it might be a little uncomfortable for you, the period of increased accountability should ideally not last forever, but it proves that you are committed to doing everything that will mend the relationship.
There is no doubt that you should completely stop any form of communication with the affair partner, but if they reach out to you, you should confess it to your partner, so they know whose side you really are on. If you hide or delete the evidence, and somehow your partner comes to know about it, remember that it means that this will be nuclear for your marriage. All progress you have made will be lost.
If you are taking full responsibility of the affair, you should also get tested for any sexually transmitted diseases you might have got. The most embarrassing thing for most people is the fact that they have to go to the doctor to get checked for STDs.
It is high time that you pay time and attention to your family and make it your number one priority. Hiding the affair took energy, time, and attention away from your family. It is time for you to go out of your way to show to your spouse that you are ready for a change even if it means attending couples counselling, or going to a love marriage specialist or spending more time with your family.
