My affair lasted 4 ½ years. At first, I claimed I didn’t have any feelings for my affair partner anymore. I want ALL the feelings for the AP to be gone. How does that happen? How long will my feelings for her last? My feelings for her make it excruciatingly painful for my wife. How can my wife handle the pain of my ongoing feelings for her?Sections: Rick's Q & A timeRick's QuestionsRL_Category: Breaking Off The AffairQ&A Recovery LibrarySafety in RecoveryRL_Media Type: Video
