Re: Still not over it
Well we had our first therapy session yesterday and when we left I felt drained. I almost felt bad for him because our therapist didn't hold back any punches regarding his affair and validating my feelings. She told me that I did nothing to provoke his actions. She told him through his actions he not only broke the trust in our relationship but he also took away my power to choose. She also got into his background and the influences he had growing up. I had a couple of AH HA moments during our session.
She suggested a book, After The Affair by Janis Abrahms Spring. We picked the book up last night and we'll begin reading it together this weekend. I read the first chapter last night on my own it and all I could do was nod my head in agreement as I read each word.
The road to recovery is long but I feel good about our future.
