It’s been 6 months since discovering my wife’s 3-year-long emotional and physical affair with my close friend and first cousin. In the first few weeks after, her tears and sadness were only directed toward him. I’ve accepted that due to the nature of the affair a detox may need to occur but is empathy, remorse, and emotion for me and my hurt yet to come? I feel that as the months tick by it seems less likely to genuinely come to the surface. That’s if it’s even there at all.
