If you've just found out your spouse has been involved in an affair you are no doubt feeling the excruciating pain of betrayal. And in the midst of the pain you probably have many questions and feel confused about the possible answers. You may be asking such questions as, "What does this mean for us?" "Are we over as a couple?" "He/she wants me to keep this to ourselves and work through it on our own. Is that a good idea?" "Should we tell the kids?" "S/he says s/he needs to meet one more time with the affair partner in order to end it, but that makes me uncomfortable. Should I agree to this anyway?" "I want to know the details and I don't want to know. Does that make sense?"

Let's face it, affairs are devestating. Just the nature of marriage means your spouse can bless you in ways that no one else ever could. But the flip side is also true: no one can hurt you more deeply than the one you're married to. And affairs are perhaps the deepest hurt of all. Upon the revelation of an affair there's often a confusing jumble of emotions, including shock, numbness, anger, and the shattered feeling that life will never be the same.

When you're going through something like this you need someone to wade with you through the difficult waters of healing. You'll need the support of your dearest friends. your pastor, or trusted family members as you make this journey. And it's often helpful to have an experienced counselor make the journey with you.
