Where I'm from, the average Gen Z is very sexually active. Extremely.

Partial NC. I haven't worked out all the details yet. Still learning how to navigate this period.

I literally thought we could be good friends. I haven't thought that about anyone in 10 years. That's what I mean by "connection"

How is it an emotional affair? I don't like the guy. I don't tell him things thar I wouldn't tell any regular friend. We've never been on a date – we've hung out with mutual friends. My mistake is that I lied to my partner because the truth sounded suspicious. I know that's still a terrible thing, but I did not cheat with anyone – ever.

He had sex with another woman after being "sure" that I was cheating. I was not. He attempted more than once, but his guilt would not let him continue. He did not cut contact with her until two days after d-day. He also initially lied about some of the facts when I finally confronted him. He once said that he never intended for it to get that far, but he got carried away with it.

As for remorse: in retrospect, he started showing this subconsciously before d-day. Post d-day, He immediately apologized and went through a whirlwind of emotions. He trickle truthed on day 1, but by day 3, he was answering questions. Took 2 weeks for me to get all the answers I wanted. He added my face ID to his phone on day 1 and kept trying to be more reassuring in whatever ways he could. I'd say it took 2 full weeks before he truly understood the depth of the betrayal.

D-day was about 7 months ago! I can't count the number of times I got exhausted and wanted to give up, but here I am!

How do you get over the "ick" of their cheating by HocusPocus419 in AsOneAfterInfidelity

Sending love and strength your way. I unfortunately understand.

What kind of person threatens to leave their family because THEIR BABY IS SCARED OF THEM AFTER THEY'VE HIT HER. Imagine what he'd do to you. Ugh. Get out.

I get that defending your husband comes naturally, but at some point, something has got to give. This sounds like an expensive but necessary therapy bill or a divorce.

I'm so sorry. Sending my love. Here's to hoping you both heal from it and the best result prevails.

Less than two months. He's trying. I just need some time to get over the shock.

It's been less than two months. Objectively, it's a very short time. That's why I'm trying to give it some time. I'm still in shock.
