Reader matter:
My partner and that I are divided. She was unfaithful three times this last thirty days, but I became unfaithful 19 years ago. We’ve been hitched 21 years. She desires to divorce and after a couple of months, get hitched once more so we may have a clear record.
I have forgiven her of most and wish to operate it. But am I wasting my time, or is this correct?
-Mike R. (Arizona)
Dr. Wendy Walsh’s Response:
OK, I Am confused. Your spouse desires to invest thousands of dollars with the family money in separation court and keeping two individual homes, only so she will wed you again? I could realize the lady dependence on some kind of symbolic routine to generate a «clean slate» in her head, but separation and divorce is not necessarily the solution to exercise.
I recommend a week-long lovers retreat that culminates to you two reinstating your vows. Important thing: You two need to have open communication so you can understand just why she had those affairs. Affairs will always the symptom of a more impressive problem. And that’s what you need to uncover before you can proceed.
