I’ve spent decades helping wives recover from this situation and transform their failing marriage into a dream marriage. Understand that this is a wakeup call that your marriage has not been working well for some time now. But, it doesn’t mean that your marriage has to end.Īny type of cheating, from so-called “emotional affairs” to discovering a hidden longterm girlfriend, should serve as a catalyst to change things. Cheating of any kind, to any degree, is immoral, and it is a big deal. For too many people, cheating on one’s spouse is no longer seen as a “big deal” thanks to the low morality of Hollywood and the example they set in their lives and in media.
