“The Recovery Library gave me 24/7 support because I could be up at 3am and search for the topic I was struggling with. It also helped as a couple because we could investigate topics together so it wasn’t subjective. I trusted this information because it was from professionals who also had lived through and recovered from infidelity. Double credibility in my book.”

I would also say that maybe he should work through his severe judgement of the affair partner. He used the word reprehensible several times. It may be triggering her shame to such a degree that she cannot help but feel the severe judgement is directed at her. I could not be intimate with someone who saw me that way.
