Question
My mate and I are 8 months from D-Day and have completed the EMS Online course. I had taken the course as the betrayed partner at the time. I engaged in an emotional and physical affair with a co worker and am now the unfaithful. My partner had done everything to change for me, and due to my resentment and lack of empathy, I betrayed him. I feel that I don’t have the right to express my concerns in that, but it worries me. I desperately want this to work, but I’ve left an overwhelming mess to clean up. I have abused my mate’s trust numerous times throughout the healing process and taken advantage of him. We are both terrified of trusting each other. How do I make him feel safe after this? How do we move on? Is there still hope for us?
