I recently heard from a wife who told me that she didn't think that she could ever get over the lies she was uncovering about her husband's affair. She said, in part: "his cheating on me and having an affair is bad enough. But, it seems like every day, I undercover yet another lie that he has told me. He knows that honesty is huge with me. Being lied to like this is just something that I don't think that I can tolerate. And yet, LatinFeels.com I have children and the thought of breaking up their family seems worse to me than dealing with his lies. So I want to work on the marriage for my kids. But how can I get over this lies? And how can I make him see that honesty is 100% required from this moment on? Because if I keep catching these untruths, I am going to eventually have no patience left."
Dishonesty is so wrapped up in
infidelity that it's sometimes hard to separate one from another. And this
situation is so very common. But, you can set some ground rules and come to
some understanding from this point forward. I will discuss this more in the
following article.
Being Hurt By His Dishonesty And
His Lies During The Affair Is Absolutely Understandable: The act of infidelity,
YourLoveMeet.com review by definition, means that your spouse is
likely going to need to lie to you to carry it out. And, we're often not only
talking about one lie or even a couple. Depending on how long the affair went
on for, we're sometimes talking about countless lies on an almost daily basis.
And many of these untruths required careful planning beforehand and looking at
you with a perfectly straight face while they were being told.
I don't know very many wives
dealing with the aftermath of an affair who are not asking themselves how their
husband could look at them in their home and then blatantly lie. And he's doing
this with the sole purpose to deceive you so that he can continue to carry out
his infidelity. And often, he's not only lying to you, he's also stretching the
truth with the other woman. So, there's plenty of dishonesty to go around, but
this certainly doesn't make it right.
Many wives find themselves
wondering if it's even worth it to try to save a marriage that is built on this
sort of deception. Many wives tell me that they wonder if they are just being
stupid by trying to continue DilMil to be with someone who has shown themselves as
horribly dishonest.
What's very interesting is that
often the husbands who had the affair try to justify their dishonesty. They'll
tell you that they were trying to spare you pain or that they weren't sure what
they wanted or that they were in denial. But it's rare that these things ring
true. In fact, many women's response is something like: "if I had felt
this way, I would've been honest and told my husband so that we could work on
our marriage before any infidelity happened. I wouldn't have been sneaky and
kept my concerns from him. His doing so just proves what kind of character he
truly has."
I completely understand these
feelings as I experienced them. And, it took me a long time to stop fixating on
the deception. But eventually, you have to decide a couple of things. You have
to decide if it's going to be deal breaker and you have to decide if you're
going to sit back and decide for yourself if you feel he can chance or if you
can come to trust him again.
Returning Honesty In A Marriage
Nearly Ruined By Lies And Infidelity: Here's the thing. Unfortunately, you
can't change what has happened. And dealing with being betrayed just stinks. It
really does. There is nothing fun or positive about it as it's happening to
you. But, there will typically come a time when you get begin to get so tired
of feeling angry and enraged all of the time. You just get to a point where you
want to return to a sense of calm and routine. And it's very difficult to do
this when you are constantly churning out more anger.
When you reach this place, you'll
often need to decide how you want to proceed. Sometimes, you determine that you
just can not move past these types of lies and deception. And if this is what
it takes for you to feel peace, then you need not make any apologies for this.
The right answer is the one that works best for you and gives you the most
peace.
But, others will want to maintain
their marriage and their family. For those women, it helps to decide that you
aren't going to drag this around with you continuously and that you want to
move on. One way to do this is to make it crystal clear to your husband that
will never tolerate this type of betrayal or dishonesty again. With that done,
you'll often then need to work on reestablishing open communication in your
marriage. You need to be free to tell him how you are feeling. And, he needs to
feel OK about approaching you with any issues.
Whether it's valid or not, many men
who have affairs will claim that they didn't feel comfortable approaching their
wives with issues. This isn't a valid excuse of course. But, one important
issue when trying to save your marriage after an affair is safeguarding your
marriage from future infidelity. It's difficult to save your marriage when
you're constantly worried that he's going to cheat again.
