Rick, Six-months post D-Day. I know early according to the timeline for recovery. How does a betrayed find peace and commit to trying to save the 25 year marriage when the unfaithful leaves nothing sacred in the marriage? The unfaithful tells his AP that she is his soul-mate, has an emotional and sexual affair with her, tells her negative things about me, shares stories and pictures of our children and starts a business venture with her. How do you make peace with such betrayal or do I have to settle to always feeling like his second best? His affair lasted 4 months but continued to communicate with her for another 5 months (business only, I was told) until his affair was discovered then he cut all contact with her.
