Infidelity Support Group
Any relationship in which one partner engages willfully in sexual relations with another outside of the partnership is considered to have experienced infidelity. This breach of trust is often traumatizing for the faithful partner as well as the relationship, and support is often needed to heal emotionally and to decide whether or not the relationship should continue after...
I guess I'm just in denial. I keep looking around for someone to tell me that it just isn't so, but I'm afraid that my SO did indeed have and may still be having an affair. Of course it doesn't help that she denies it. I guess I shouldn't have confronted her when I first suspected as I probably just drove her and the other man underground so to speak. You know, I want so bad to believe only good things about my SO and our relationship. Color me blinded by the obvious.

I know what you mean. I was in denial for years about my husband's infidelity and I can't only blame his lies. I knew better but so wanted to believe that he would not do this to me that I let myself believe him. I just couldn't believe that this person who I loved so much would have this in him. I've known for a long time now and it still shocks me sometimes. I wonder not only how he could do this to me but also how could I be so incredibly wrong about someone. "Blinded by the obvious" - yep, guess that's it. Sorry you're having to feel this way.

I'm sorry for what you're going through. I know all about denial, we just don't want to accept something so painful. It may not be too late for you to use some of the tools to get to the truth that I learned about when reading "Never be lied to again". I wish I'd read it before I confronted my H and called the OW to learn the truth. It would have gone a long way toward rebuilding trust if I had been able to get my H to be truthful upfront. Good luck!

Thank you for the responses and support. I have 7 years invested in this relationship and a couple more weeks or so won't make that much difference. I have ordered the book from Amazon and will see if I can gain some insight from it. It can't hurt. In the meantime I'll just keep on trying to hide my feelings and hope that she slips up somehow. I sure wish things were different and better for all of us right now.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
