Question: 

After discovery my husband gave me his phone to check and unfortunately I saw some very graphic and explicit photos of my husband’s affair partner and some selfies of them kissing taken on our boat while they went away for the weekend. The images are etched in my brain and cause me a lot of pain. They also trigger trauma for me as they remind me that they had sex in our 'marital' bed on our boat. I can't go anywhere near our boat or see items from the boat in our house, does this ever go away?
