It is important to allow yourself to feel the pain and hurt that you are experiencing, and to communicate these feelings with your partner. It can be helpful to set aside dedicated time to talk about the affair and to work through your emotions together.

Establishing trust is an essential component of affair recovery. The partner who had the affair should be transparent and accountable, and should be willing to do whatever it takes to rebuild trust. This may include being open and honest about the details of the affair, being willing to answer questions, and being responsive to your partner’s needs and concerns. The other partner should be open to the possibility of rebuilding trust, and should be willing to give their partner a chance to demonstrate their commitment to the relationship.
