Getting Over An Affair - Is The Pain Worth It?
Did your spouse have an affair and you are now left struggling with getting over an affair? Are you still in a lot of pain and anger over their affair? Recovering from infidelity is not easy and it will take years before you both are healed from this devastation. Most people don't like hearing that it takes years to heal from infidelity, but it is the truth. It was 4 years before I could say that I was completely healed. I had spent years looking for answers to getting over an affair and ridding myself of the pain.
My spouse did all the right things and did everything I asked of him, including moving far away but to my surprise this did not help in getting over an affair. No matter how far away we went the pain seemed to follow me. When I finally realized that no matter where we lived, I was going to be in pain, we moved back home. I missed my family and living far away really wasn't accomplishing anything. Moving home didn't heal me, as I was still in a lot of pain, I was angry, I was depressed and I was turning bitter and resentful. I was even starting to hate my spouse and I really didn't want my life to keep going on like this. I knew if I didn't change we would end up divorced.
I then decided that I need to get serious about getting over an affair before I lost my entire marriage. I decided to use daily devotions to help me with my pain and my wounded spirit. I was in so much pain that I knew I needed a closer relationship with God so that He could fill me with love, comfort and peace and take out all of my anger, resentment, bitterness and pain. I knew that only He could do this because I had been trying to do this myself for years and it was not working. Once I really started getting into His Word and getting closer to Him I noticed that I started having good days again. In fact, I noticed that I was having more good days than bad days.
I started to enjoy being with my spouse and I started to like who I was again. Using daily devotions is a sure fire way of getting over an affair and having a happy marriage again!
