How To Rebuild The Relationship If You Are the One Who Strays Away and He Now Has Trust Issues
Your first step to absolutely, permanently say goodbye to your lover and focus your energies on the marriage. There will be pain and a lot of hurt feelings between you and your husband, but giving up your relationship with the man you cheated with is an important indication on your part that you’re committed to rebuilding your marriage. When followed by other promises of changes in your behavior and doing what you must to meet your husband’s needs, it’s a strong start in the right direction. But you may not have that option. Perhaps your affair ended because you and your lover lost interest in each other or maybe he was the one who ended it. Now you find yourself married to a man who’s hurt, angry, and doesn’t trust you. What can you do to rebuild your relationship under these circumstances?
For starters, you can show genuine remorse. You may not feel guilty for cheating on your husband – you may, in fact, still feel that you were justified because of your unhappiness with your spouse. And your husband probably feels that he’s not at fault in any way, either – in fact, he’s probably feeling a little self-righteous, along with his hurt and disappointment. Each of you is looking at the other as the cause of the trouble. But if neither of you take responsibility for the problems in your marriage, there’s no way you can fix them.
You’ve probably already apologized, and that’s important. But more important than you saying that you’re sorry is to facilitate communication between the two of you so that you can start taking the steps necessary to rebuild your relationship. That means that you both need to stop making the other feel guilty, and each of you take responsibility for what you’ve done wrong. We all tend to feel a little selfish when we’re hurt – we want the other person to take all the blame, apologize, and give us satisfaction that we assume will make us feel better. That’s not the way to fix a broken marriage, however.
You need to offer your husband a deeply felt apology for having betrayed his trust, and for hurting the one person you supposedly loved above all others. Your husband should apologize to you for failing to meet your emotional needs so you felt it necessary to have them met elsewhere. And then you should try to let it go so you can work on rebuilding your relationship, not dwell on the past. No matter how many times a day you think about your anger, don’t dredge up past mistakes and complaints about things he’s does wrong. Each bitter remark erodes your relationship even further, damaging your love when you should be nourishing it.
Once you start doing the work together in earnest, you need to start creating happy new memories to replace the unhappy one created by your infidelity. Certain events and places might trigger unhappy memories – Valentine’s Day might be hard for your husband, when he finds himself expected to buy cards and flowers, and celebrating a holiday devoted to romance with a wife who cheated on him. You’ll need to go the extra mile to start a new scrapbook of happy memories by spending the day doing something he enjoys, like a trip to the zoo or a car show.
By cheating on your husband, you took the risk of destroying your marriage forever. If your husband is willing to work with you to rebuild trust and make your marriage stronger, that’s a gift. It’s probably true that you strayed because of problems that existed before the affair, but that doesn’t make it your husband’s fault. Both of you need to talk to each other like adults and take responsibility for your own parts in what happened. With a lot of work, a lot of tears, and a great deal of commitment, you may be able to make your marriage better and more loving than it was before.
