Jun 19, 2024

Do you ever find yourself fantasizing about your ex-affair partner? Do you torture yourself reminiscing on the wonderful times you shared, and the amazing memories you hold with them, even though the infidelity situation has since come to an end? I recently received a question from a listener facing this exact situation who wanted to know when this pain and hurt would just end already! And this has formed the basis for this week’s episode.

It is so easy to think there should to be a time limit on when we hurt and feel pain. Our infidelity situation ends, the pain should stop, and we should be free and able to move on, right?! Well, sometimes, that may be the case. But what if that time doesn’t come? What if the pain and hurt continue longer than you would like or expect?

Regardless of how your infidelity situation ended, the lingering hurt can be debilitating. Floods of tears, staying stuck in the pain, feeling empty and deflated; it’s A LOT. But the right tools mixed with the right effort can lead to some pretty amazing changes, and it is possible to stop fantasizing about your ex-affair partner, it all starts with approaching your challenges in a different spirit.

In this week’s episode of Your Secret is Safe With Me, find out the reasons you might still be fantasizing about your ex-affair partner, and how to start to ease your way out of this if you really do want to relegate your memories to the compost bin of history.

I share some tips to help you take action that is right for you the next time you notice yourself thinking about your ex-affair partner and the three choices you always have available to you when it comes to fantasizing about your ex-affair partner.
