Question: 

We are in week 10 on EMS Online. I am confused as to why are you still trying to blame the betrayed. I have been married for 30 years and my husband started cheating 5 years into our marriage. I did not drive him to his behavior. All I did was give birth 3 years in and give birth to twins 2 1/2 years later, who were born 4 weeks early and needed extra care of which he was not interested in providing. All the while I thought he just didn’t care because we were still intimate with each other but he started sleeping with a coworker. You can’t tell me how I could have prevented this and the several other things he has done to me throughout the rest of our marriage. All I did was to give birth, someone had to be the adult in the household. Why do you keep wanting us to find fault? I admit that I have not been easy to live with since I already had proof of the 1st time but he has always been in denial.

I agree. Some of the exercises in EOS make the betrayed feel like they have to dig and reveal their part in this mess. We have to baby the betrayers as to not hurt their feelings. It’s kinda bs!
