My ex wife cheated on me as well. We’ve been divorced for 7 years and I hate to say it still hurts. Especially when I considered she moved on with her AP but when that fizzled quickly jumped into another relationship and recently married that man and had a baby. My heart still hurts from the pain she caused and I hope one day I’ll be able to fully move forward. I am in a loving relationship with a woman I fully trust but I have never been able to fully open myself to her the way I did with my ex because of the betrayal trauma. God-please help me forgive myself and love myself again so I can move forward.

@@macciddy7689I’ve been where you are and remember you cant take responsibility for your ex’s bad decisions. Some people in your life will make bad decisions based off of who they are and what they have seen and been through and has nothing to do w u. Give yourself time and from my experience it takes about 1 yr to 18 months to get over them. In each of my relationships once I get over them they come back and I say no way ! Find several ways to slowly improve yourself from going to the gym to getting outside grounding in the sun. spend time w friends and make new ones. once your past this dark time find someone who needs your help and help them. the trauma your going through can help others and helps you release trapped or buried negative emotions. let them go and stop thinking ab them. be your own best friend and know the person who hurt you won’t hurt you again bc your not allowing them in your life. it gives you your power back. hope this helps and Wish you and anyone reading this well. your one day closer being over them and they will never hurt you again. practice saying this all day.

I have learned that we sometimes need to flip the experience around. Theres something wrong with the cheater. They have a problem. Unable to love. Be sincere. They lack integrity. They often insecure. I found this helped me alot. I am NOT the problem. The cheater has issues and have to deal with their lack of esteem and integrity. Wholesome people do NOT cheat. They often run from one meaningless relationship to another. Shame on them..

My husband only went as far as kissing her, but when he apologized, he basically said what you did, and that he should have trusted me as well as tried harder instead of going to someone else. He's been nothing but loving, understanding, patient and empathetic. Even small little details that I’ve noticed he’s changed because he knows it may hurt my feelings, he won’t even tell me, I just notice. Instead of running away he’s taken full accountability and tries really hard every day to fix what he broke. Not a lot of people get this but he’s been holding my hand through all of these things she’s mentioned in this video and it helps but it still hurts like hell.

I got cheated on 7 months ago and It destroyed me as I never imagined it could, The anxiety is unreal and the person I became (I felt dragged into it) I just can’t recognize her. I feel angry all the time, ugly, old…just totally broken. My therapist was not able to help with any of my symptoms and after 6 months of therapy just told me to find someone more skilled,I stopped watching these videos because it would only trigger me more but yours has put so many things into place and gave me such a great guidance on what to look for in my therapy…Thank you a million times! I hope you really have an Idea of how helpful you’re being and how compassionate too. I hope whoever feels like I do can get to heal and move on from this! Thanks again 💕

I relate so much. At times, I have a hard time being outside. Watching normal couples just sitting in a car would trigger me. It's hard when you're out, you can't relax there. I just try to finish whatever I have and just run back home. I have spent many nights just crying myself to sleep. I could be having a good day but just a certain trigger or just a tiny bit of a flashback could ruin my day. I haven't talked to a therapist about that ( i hardly trust anyone to be vulnerable), just trying to heal by myself. I agree with your views about Doctor Snipes videos. She is probably the only one whose content i watch regularly to process my healing. Wishing you health and peace! Good luck for your healing journey.

Alan Robarge is another great one to watch, IMO. My husband of 13yrs left w someone half my age, so I also understand how it feels for your self esteem to be absolutely pulverized. After 2yrs of being isolated & depressed abt it I've decided to start visualizing myself happy & healthy, & figuring out what activities, behaviors & new routines I can begin doing to reach the woman I visualize myself to be. And bc chronic stress can literally kill you, make sure you get as much deep sleep as possible until those cortisol levels even out. I didn't know this abt cortisol, & ended up having 4surgeries & losing handfuls of hair until I had bald spots bc of the constant despair, crying & stress. I had to watch youtube videos to learn how to process the grief of betrayal in order to even begin to feel human again. Stay strong Sis. Everything's going to be so much better for you bc you're actually making the effort to learn how to heal 💪🏼🤍

I spent four more years with my ex after she cheated on me and honestly I needed faith and a good friend to convince me it was over. Nothing ever got better but just got worse over time. Finally realized I’m still wanted on the market after feeling numb for years. I just learned to let go and move on. No more beating myself up. No more of letting my thoughts cloud my self esteem or value. The love was never that deep if they could cheat. It’s like a big relief and weight was taken off my shoulders. I pray for anyone currently going through, I know it’s hard. God bless you all!

Hope you're doing better! I think learning thought awareness, CBT techniques to get and feel more in control of your emotions, and days. Thoughts influence emotions which can lead to actions... the brain naturally leans toward negative thoughts as a defense mechanism.. especially if youve been through trauma....once you become aware of this you can practice challenging those negative thoughts with positive ones! which leads to good emotions.. for example what are you grateful for? What is something that makes you smile?....what can you do to self care today? Be compassionate toward yourself. practice this every day and you will retrain your brain away from defaulting to the negative. Cognitive behavioral therapy will help you to learn your brain and feel safe in controlling thought.. therefore emotions and actions improve. CBT therapy with a professional may be great for you.. this video gives some great techniques to start with grounding yourself etc. Best. You got this. Every day is a fresh start!🎉

Thanks for the talk. Betrayal trauma is definitely not talked about often enough. My wife had an affair in our 24th year of marriage. I've been through some difficult times in my life, but nothing hurts like a betrayal by the person you love and built a life with. There is a reason that Dante put betrayal one step above hell in The Inferno. You have to first get your head around how someone is capable of that level betrayal to you and your children and live another life. Its been 2 years since the D-day, when she went on vacation with her lover and my youngest son while I was overseas on business.....his older brother, who was also away on a trip at the same time, told me about the affair after he got back and spoke to his younger brother. Needless to say her infidelity has impacted the entire family. He fractured his hand by putting it through a wall when he saw me crying at my desk one morning. I was a mess and could not concentrate on anything for a long time. Awful, but I'm getting better.

And above all.....forgive and love yourself. Rejection causes a person to feel inadequate, and less than in many areas. Let her go. Decide to live. And love. Best wishes to you friend.

@@RS-rh9kp Yes, we are still together and things are better, but you almost have to treat it like a new relationship and get to the root cause of why she cheated. Most guys like to push 100% of the blame on the wayward spouse. Your marriage was probably not great before, even though that is no excuse for cheating. We are working through the EMS Online Affair Recovery course now. The materials and group calls help bring some of these to the surface. We tried it on our own for 2 years and only got so far. Just realize this is long process. I didn't want to break up my family and throw away a 30 year relationship without at least giving it a try. A new relationship has risks too. If I had less invested, I.e. married less than 5 years and no kids, I would have bailed. Hope that helps

Ended it with him and years later met my current partner, been with him 8 years and just found out he has fathered a child to someone whilst we were broken up last year for 4 months and he tells me he had slept with her on and off after we got engaged a few years back. I don’t think these sick individuals realise the trauma and pain they cause to others. It’s evil, horrific and can destroy another persons soul. I will never trust a human again. Ever

I am sorry that happened to you. Betrayal hurts. When we experience a betrayal or a hurt that comes from a person we trusted, it cuts to the very core of our being, it feels like a physical assault and it does cause injury. Betrayal is an emotional assault that causes the loss of trust, the loss of the relationship you thought you had and a need to reconsider your assumptions about your emotional and physical safety, people and the world. When we are betrayed, we experience many loses and those losses need to be grieved. God knows, He sees and He hears.

​@DocSnipes Can it also be financially betrayed? I pray to God for wisdom and patience all the time. I feel guilty for giving all our money under my husband to take care of. I was raised that way. I was attorney before marriage, dealing - only by grace of God - almost amazingly with money. In marriage I wanted to be a mother, as for me this is most valued gift and honor that I feel could ever be given by God. After 10 years of marriage I'm not sure can I even count to 10. I don't leave house. Whenever I want to leave this insanity, I'm being told by my husband and my mother, that I'm crazy. I don't know, maybe I'm am. But I can't stop feeling what I feel, which is feeling like living with good looking, loving and caring (for my daughter for 100%), but as it's seem also for me, best person ever. Then, me feeling like living with worst enemy, feels like either for real I'm spoiled so bad as they say, or crazy or I don't what else. Can someone feel so bad, if things are so great ? Can we feel something so unreal ? I don't think so. But maybe I'm sick. I don't know. God bless 💜💜💜

Just found out my boyfriend of almost 5 years had another woman he was sleeping with on the side the entire time. I feel so disgusted that he compromised my health and that he could disrespect and lie so easily all this time. He was only sorry he got caught and was trying to convince me to forgive him. I’m proud of myself for kicking him out and breaking up with him right away but the pain now is unbearable. I always felt safe in our relationship. I thought he was my best friend and I truly trusted him and now that has been shattered. I never knew who he truly was if he was capable of doing this to me. He never truly loved me and it’s so painful to come to terms with.

I'm so sorry to hear about what you're going through. It sounds incredibly painful and disorienting. Trusting someone so deeply, only to have that trust broken, is profoundly hurtful. It's completely understandable to feel a mix of anger, betrayal, and sadness. It's important to allow yourself to feel these emotions and not rush the healing process. You made a strong decision in a very tough moment, and that shows a lot of courage and self-respect. Remember, it's okay to seek support from friends, family, or a professional during this time. Healing from such a deep wound takes time, but each day, you're moving forward, even if it doesn't always feel that way. What tips from the video will you use to start your healing journey?

Thank you so much for watching the video. I'm really sorry to hear that you're going through such a difficult time. Infidelity can be incredibly painful and challenging to cope with, especially in a long-term relationship. It's important to prioritize your own emotional well-being. Consider seeking support from a therapist or counselor to help you navigate your feelings and make decisions about your relationship moving forward. Surrounding yourself with friends and loved ones who can offer support can also be helpful during this tough period. Remember, you don't have to go through this alone, and there are people who can provide guidance and a listening ear as you work through your emotions and choices.

I’ve stayed for 30yrs after being cheated on numerous times and thought everything would settle down as we grew older together but it’s hitting me now like it’s never hit before because I have started to have that compassion for myself and stopped thinking it has/had something to do with me. Wasn’t I good enough is something I struggled with for years and now I know it wasn’t me it’s HIM that has issues. And now I feel like I’m too old to start over and just stay and hope for the best when in actual fact I’m thinking I can’t finish my life bitter and still wondering, thinking, stressing and full of anxiety it’s taking a toll on my health now.. I don’t want to admit I have wasted more than half my life on who I thought was my best friend🥺

My 2nd wife with extreme bpd just hung herself in sept. She hung herself due to extreme shame from all the cheating. I was her true love. She killed me. were married 5 years and friends for 18 before hand. I have had bpd relationship after bpd relationship since 1994. My life has been a trauma filled tragedy and I'm more fucked than I've ever been, but I'm making my own silver lining. I'm trying to at least.

Risk giving STD to spouse. Trust is foundation to any good relationship. When there’s no remorse on part of cheater. Trust won’t be rebuilt. I have high standards and morals that allow me to use as a compass. I choose not to be with a low value person. I deserve high quality.

Took my charming ex wife all of 3 months from our wedding day to cheat on a "girls night out™". By this point we'd been together over 11 years and I completely adored her. Despite the pain I stuck around for another 7 years but deep down I never saw her the same again and stopped trusting her. We broke up 4 years ago after a total of 18 years together and I've not even been on so much as a date since. I just can't trust women anymore. I had to go on the only honeymoon I'll ever go on with a cheat and act like what she'd done hadn't all but killed me. Nope. I'm out. I'd rather die alone than feel like that again. I won't offer anyone an opportunity to hurt me like that a second time.

Sir, I understand your feelings. TRUST was destroyed in me to the core. But I want to say this in retrospect. I've been alone since 1998. Closed myself off. Vowed I would NEVER go through that horror and hell again. I chose alone-ness. Celibacy comes along with that ride. OVER 20 years. Wish I had given myself a chance to heal, and realize that companionship is so precious. Especially as one ages. Two are better than one. Lack of human love, touch, sharing a meal, just talking, is so much to give up. Don't let this woman rob you of your life. I went inward to protect myself and out of fear. It tainted my entire life. Don't let your ex steal another 18 years. I 🙏 you will find the love of your life. And you will have time to make good memories.

My heart still hurts from the pain she caused and I hope one day I’ll be able to fully move forward.

The person who I thought I will get married to cheated on me six months ago and didn’t tell me until I found out by accident last week. The worst part is not that I do not know who I am without him and what am I gonna do with my future, the worst prr is that he stole my memories. All the good memories together now seem fake, covered by dark clouds because I was feeling happy when I had no idea what he was doing to me. This is the worst part, not knowing what to believe and not knowing what to feel because all the love that I had was not for the person who I found out he is.

You're definitely not the only one who feels this way. We are many. It's a shame that this topic is still such a taboo topic or that it's simply hardly possible to talk about it sensibly with outsiders. I think it would help people like us enormously if we could simply show and express why and how we suffer. And maybe it would also prevent one or two affairs or cheating. For example, I am affected by the fact that my husband was with prostitutes. How am I supposed to talk to others about something like that? On the one hand, prostitution is so normalized, but which woman talks about it when her own partner has done it (I tried, bad idea) - or which man stands up in public and says "yes, I go to whores"?

I completely agree with how you mentioned that our individual stories also have different impacts, and can then trigger different struggles with trust. For me, my story differs from you as I was in a woman/woman relationship and she cheated on me with a man-- for me, this brought insecurities of not being enough (especially with the societal stereotype that you can't please a woman without "PIV" sex or that lesbian sex isn't real) But I can only imagine your insecurities and trust difficulties when facing that different circumstance. This also reminds me of how kids of divorced parents experience drastically different trauma depending on the age they were when the divorce happened and how everything went down. We all have such different stories.

I got over my partners affairs by just focusing on living well, improvement, leveling up.

Thank you for sharing your experience and perspective. It sounds like you've done a lot of meaningful work in channeling the pain from your partner’s affairs into personal growth and self-improvement, which is a powerful approach. You're absolutely right-simply trying to avoid or distract yourself from the hurt often isn't enough for long-term healing. Facing the pain head-on and acknowledging how it has changed you is an essential part of moving forward. The fact that you still experience nightmares is a sign that, even though you've made progress, there may be lingering emotional wounds that need further attention. It’s common for trauma like this to resurface, even when you're actively working on growth. By acknowledging the pain and finding a way to process it, you allow yourself to heal more deeply. Channeling those emotions into something productive, like improving yourself or creating new opportunities, is an excellent way to regain a sense of control and meaning. At the same time, being compassionate with yourself during moments when the hurt resurfaces is equally important. Healing isn’t about erasing the past but about learning how to live well despite it, just as you’ve described. You’ve clearly tapped into an effective strategy by embracing the change and focusing on growth. Keep honoring that process while also giving yourself space to acknowledge and process any emotions that still need attention.

10 years ago, I was cheated on. She met the guy at work and rekindled an old relationship. She was intimate with him for 3 months before I found out. She ended up blaming me for everything and after 5 years together and 1 child she chose to be with the guy. A month or 2 later he passed away in traffic accident, feeling the need to be there for her we ended up working past the infidelity. We’ve since gotten married and been together for 10 years since the incident and I still have a wall up, I have episodes where I’m thinking the worst, I feel like the way I think it’s hurting the relationship since I can’t give her my 100%.

I've had so much about myself change after dealing with betrayal. The biggest thing I've noticed is the loss of memory I've experienced. I look at old photos and I don't remember the vast majority of it. I have a hard time even thinking of a happy memory at all.... I don't even know if I ever truly was happy at any point in my life before. It's been three years now.... I feel like I have to find out who I am, completely lost any sense of identity, no sense of ambition or feeling that anything I do actually makes a difference or matters. The only time I feel good about something is when I day dream about being in a secluded place and alone, it just feels so peaceful and safe. I've done therapy and have gotten better but it is clear to me that there are deep permanent changes/damage done to the brain.

I'm truly sorry to hear about the pain and betrayal you've experienced. It's understandable to feel crushed and to struggle with trust after such profound hurt. Healing from this kind of emotional trauma is a process, and it's important to give yourself permission to grieve the loss and work through the complex emotions that arise. Here are some steps to consider as you navigate this difficult time: Acknowledge Your Feelings: It's normal to feel a range of emotions, including anger, guilt, and sadness. Recognize these feelings and allow yourself to experience them without judgment. Seek Support: Connect with friends, family, or a support group who can provide a consistent and validating presence. This can help you feel less isolated and more grounded as you heal. Self-Care: Engage in activities that promote well-being and relaxation. This can help reduce stress and improve your mood during this challenging period. Therapy: Consider speaking with a therapist who can help you process your feelings, develop coping strategies, and work on rebuilding trust in yourself and future relationships. Reframe the Narrative: Understand that your wife's actions are a reflection of her choices and issues, not your worth or desirability. This can help you separate your identity from the betrayal. Create New Memories: As you move forward, it's important to create new experiences and associations that don't involve the painful past. This can help in making your environment feel safe again. Rebuild Trust Gradually: Trust is rebuilt over time. Start with small steps and gradually open up as you feel comfortable. Remember, it's okay to set boundaries and communicate your needs to future partners. Reflect and Learn: Take time to reflect on the relationship and what you can learn from the experience. This can help you make informed choices in future relationships and recognize red flags earlier. Envision Your Future: Consider what you want your life to look like moving forward. Setting goals for yourself can provide direction and a sense of purpose as you rebuild. Remember, healing is not linear, and it's okay to have good days and bad days. Be patient with yourself and recognize that rebuilding trust and overcoming betrayal is a journey that takes time. If you ever feel overwhelmed, don't hesitate to reach out for professional help. You're not alone in this, and there is hope for a happier, more trusting future.

After struggling with the effects of my husband's infidelity for so long and clinging to every straw, my husband (sex and porn addict) has recently proven to me, conclusively, that he is untrustworthy and that everything he says is how he wants to change , are just declarations of intent. That was like a wake-up call for me. I was now finally able to free myself internally, because if I had only gotten to know him now, one thing is certain: I would never enter into a new relationship with a person like him. Mendacious, selfish, lazy and cowardly. Phew, I'm really feeling better.

Thank you for sharing your experience. It sounds like you’ve gone through a lot of pain and struggle, but it’s powerful that you’ve reached a place of clarity and inner freedom. Realizing that someone’s words don’t align with their actions can be heartbreaking, but it can also be a turning point in reclaiming your peace and sense of self. It’s a significant shift when you can look at the situation more objectively and recognize that, if this was someone new in your life, you’d never choose to invest in that relationship. That insight can be incredibly liberating. It speaks to your strength and growth that you’re now prioritizing your well-being over clinging to empty promises. Moving forward, it’s important to honor these realizations and continue focusing on what brings you peace and fulfillment. Healing from betrayal takes time, but acknowledging the reality of the situation and freeing yourself from the cycle of false hope is a big step toward regaining your sense of self and autonomy. I’m glad to hear you’re feeling better-keep trusting your instincts and prioritizing what’s best for you and, if you’re interested in more tips and tools on healing for infidelity or all things mental health, please don’t hesitate to use my Ai: allceus.com/AskDocSnipes. Additionally, I’d be grateful if you were to share what you found most useful from the video.

@@DocSnipes Hi Doc, thank you very much for your detailed and generous answer, I really appreciate it! Yes, this inner liberation is truly a gift. It does bring new pain and sadness with it, but that's okay, it has to be that way. I couldn't even say which part of the video was most helpful to me. It was probably more the case that different points were within my reach at different times and sort of “docked” into me. It's a process, a path that only reveals itself slowly, right? What doesn't suit me today may be exactly what I need in a few weeks. And the antidepressants that I started taking nine months ago (because it was becoming dangerous for me) first had to correct my brain chemistry to such an extent that my brain began to work almost normally again. But your videos were definitely interesting and important to me overall, so I would like to express my deepest gratitude for allowing people like me to benefit from your knowledge and skills! Without any exaggeration, you contributed to my survival. I am a nurse and have worked passionately in psychiatry, so - I suspect - I am most interested in "medical" topics that are clearly dealt with in a factual and structural manner. Facts, not nonsense. Btw, I used to work with new patients who were admitted with such massive depression and were either massively delusional or almost stuporous (without any indicators of this in their biography) and whose medical examinations, such as MRI, ruled out any organic cause , why these women seemed to become so seriously ill from one day to the next. Based on what I have now experienced first hand, I could certainly imagine that they experienced massive trauma in their relationship. I mean - hey, no one goes crazy straight away or becomes a dementia sufferer without something very serious having happened! And what all of these women had in common was that the men seemed cold and distant. Would this be possible?

As one who has been diagnosed with multiple labels and used the senses to ground as well as visualizing I find grounding. However, as one who has spent most of my life in survival mode and hyper vigilance, I can sink into perpetual mourning. The best memories are with those who asked me questions and sincerely, out of love, had a desire to see me succeed. We, Survivors, have been conditioned/programmed to fear relationships they should trust and trust the relationships we should fear. The predators who ask questions to use me to fullfill their own wants needs and desires have overrun those who pray for my success. I may translate and read as self centered from the readers perspective. I would like to state for the record. I can only speak for my self. To try to step into my shoes or translate the view from where I sit would be pretty assumption. . . No. You can not sit in my lap. No. I do not want to sit in yours. If I want to wear shoes. I have my own. I have boots too. It snows here. How I cope is none of your business, until, I violate your right to say No. No Is a complete sentence. No explanation mandates. I explain because our people are dying. And if another person utters the words "you are the strongest person I know" to me. I may punch them in the face and call it self defense. Carry on Doc Snipes.

When your ex-wife managed to convince you that you were the crazy one when your “spidey sense” was alerting you that something wasn’t right for over a decade. When you find out your daughters knew about your ex-wife’s multiple partners and never told you. When you finally realize what has gone on and you say no more and your ex-wife who also happens to be a social worker lies and gets protective orders against you when all you have done is confront her regarding the behavior and how it has destroyed the family. No threats, no yelling nothing other than how could you have done this to all of us? I’m $170k into fighting to get custody of children she didn’t want to adopt because she had started another affair. The legal system is a shame.

You are most likely dealing with a narcissist/ sociopath. Do some research and I'm sure you will come to that conclusion. Dr. Ramani has a ton of information about this personality disorder. They will destroy the partners reputation to save their reputation after already breaking your heart and mind fucking you. A special attorney will be needed too because divorcing a narcissist is not a normal divorce, they actually like hurting you and will never admit what they did, they will work even harder to destroy you. Move in silence,of you keep talking you are letting on about what know and what you may be preparing to do. You have been sleeping with the enemy.

I can only talk from my own experience. My wife and I had a confession night 2 years ago when we admitted to each other a one night stand on both sides during a 3 week long argument & separation(in 2014). Two weeks ago I found out she actually slept with that guy for more than a year and kept seeing him for another 4 years after that. Terry Real says that rebuilding trust in a relationship after infidelity takes a massive amount of work and a long time of being extra-transparent from the cheater partner. Even with that, the doubt never really goes away, as a cheating partner will most probably never forget the forbidden fruit is still there, within reach. When one partner cheats, the relationship ends there and then. Both partners then have to decide whether they can start a new one on different terms or walk away. Its up to you to balance the good and the bad in each other to decide if you both go on. But considering that honesty, integrity and transparency ( which most of us look for in others ) are the traits that suffer most in infidelity, it's clear why people seldom stay after cheating.

I'm truly sorry to hear about the pain you've been carrying for so long. It's incredibly difficult to cope with such deep emotional wounds, especially when they are intertwined with a long history and the responsibility of raising children. Your decision to stay for your children shows your immense strength and dedication as a parent. It's important to acknowledge both your struggles and the good times you've had. Seeking support from a counselor or therapist might help you work through these painful memories and find a way to balance them with the positive ones. Remember, it's okay to prioritize your own healing too. Please feel free to share what tips from the video you’d consider using first to start healing.

They live in my suburb - had 2 kids. I am forced to share 50/50 custody with my son so I have basically lost everything. I’m 5 years in and it’s still not ok. I think my strategies of self care do help but when an incident occurs I still have a strong emotional response.

I'm so sorry you're going through this. Being betrayed for so long by someone you trusted, and now feeling abandoned and alone, is an incredibly heavy burden to bear. It’s completely understandable that you feel stuck, like time has stopped, and that moving forward seems impossible. The pain of infidelity can cut so deep, and it sounds like the situation has left you feeling not only emotionally devastated but also struggling with the unfairness of it all. It's important to acknowledge that your pain is valid, and being a man doesn't mean you're supposed to carry it all without help or support. What you’re going through is incredibly difficult, and no one should have to face this kind of betrayal alone. It’s okay to reach out for help, whether from friends, a support group, or a therapist who can help you begin to process all that’s happened. Healing from something like this takes time, and it might feel impossible right now, but small steps toward reclaiming your life and your sense of self will eventually help you move forward. You deserve to find peace and to rebuild your life on your own terms, even though it feels like everything has been taken from you. Is there any specific support you're looking for as you navigate this? Please feel free to use my Ai to search for strategies to address this: allceus.com/AskDocSnipes and pease know that you're not alone, and there are people who can help you through this.

Acknowledging the damage done is crucial in the healing process, don't you think?

Thank you so much for your thoughtful comment-it’s such an important point! You’re absolutely right that accountability is a crucial part of the healing process after infidelity. While coping strategies are essential for managing the emotional fallout, they work best when paired with honest acknowledgment of the harm caused and efforts to rebuild trust. Both partners need space to process their emotions, but accountability from the partner who violated trust can be the foundation for genuine healing and growth in the relationship. Open communication, empathy, and sometimes even working with a therapist can help facilitate this accountability in a way that feels safe and constructive for both partners. It’s a delicate balance, but when both partners are willing to take responsibility for their roles and commit to rebuilding, healing becomes much more attainable. If you found the video helpful, please consider sharing it-it might offer others insights into navigating these complex situations. What part of the healing process do you feel is the hardest to navigate? Hearing your perspective could provide valuable insight for others in similar situations!

I feel trapped. My spouse is talking to another women and it hurts. I don’t want to act out in anger but I don’t know what to do. I feel like I can trust no and I can talk to no one that will tell my business to someone. I’m on my 2nd marriage and my spouse has the main income. I feel powerless with no where to go and I can’t afford where I am. I have 3 kids but mentally it’s hard to feel present. I act out of anger towards him and he refuses to leave but I don’t want to hurt him. He refuses to leave and suggest I leave with my kids. What do I do if neither of us can leave the home, I don’t have much income, and my mental health is has gotten so bad that I can’t work because all I see is betrayal. And few he failed us.

I'm so sorry. That is a lot to be dealing with, especially because you feel like you can't trust anyone else either. I can imagine how lonely and trapped you must feel 😔 Idk if you want outsider advice and you're probably doing this but I'd suggest finding someone you can talk to, a therapist, a group (a lot are virtual now too so you can find ones nationwide). Couples therapy if you both want it. Find ways to feel and expell that rage that doesn't hurt your family or him too (which I'm struggling with, that's hard!!!), something spiritual if you are, or if you have time/resources an activity just for you (a daily walk, gym, painting class, journaling, w.e). If he doesn't want to change and/or you want to leave, it's sounds like you need more money, which will take time so maybe you're not "stuck" but need to reframe it as needing to be patient. Maybe job training or sticking to a stricter budget to save more (not knowing anything about your situation of course!) You got this. You're not alone. We're all in messy situations watching this 😂😭

Kimberly! You can’t be serious. He actively is doing this shot to your face? You need to get his ass! You have every right to be in that house with your children, it’s your marital home. Kick his ass out. Go file a restraining order against him and tell the court he’s emotionally abusing you and you don’t feel safe around him. Do something! Get him out of that house if not for you but for your babies. Please don’t put your kids through this shit. And with all that torment on your mind, you’re not functioning well as a mom to your kids. I know it’s not gonna be easy but you’re better than that. Throw his ass on the streets! And let him pay you alimony/child support while you hold down a job.

@DocSnipes

I hear you-leaving a cheater can be incredibly difficult, even when you know it’s what’s best for you. The bond you’ve built, even if it’s been damaged by betrayal, can feel almost like a glue that keeps you stuck. There’s often a mix of emotions: love, hope, anger, fear, and even a desire for things to go back to the way they were. It’s completely normal to feel torn and to struggle with breaking away, especially when you’ve invested so much time and energy into the relationship. Healing from betrayal isn’t just about letting go of the person; it’s also about working through the emotional attachment and the “what ifs” that can keep you holding on. Remember that it’s okay to take your time in the process of moving forward. Surrounding yourself with supportive people, journaling your feelings, and even seeking professional help can be really beneficial in untangling that emotional bond. You deserve to feel whole and at peace, free from the weight of someone who’s betrayed your trust. It’s a tough journey, but taking even small steps toward reclaiming your strength and self-worth is a powerful start.
