I am 4 years past discovery of the physical affair. Recovery doesn't happen unless everything is discussed and addressed - of course, in as healthy a way as possible. I was willing to do what it took to recover. My husband wasn't. He started counseling but stopped when he wanted to - far short of recovery... short changed again - cast out of my own marriage, again.
Rick, your articles have gotten so much better over the years. I wish this article had been around 4 years ago. It might have made sense to my husband. But with his narcissism I tend to doubt it.
Recovery takes commitment
