Question: 

It has been 3 years since D-Day and my husband still struggles many times during the day and wakes up at night thinking about the affair partner. He says he wants to be with me and he doesn’t want to think about her. All these pictures and thoughts led him to a six month relapse last fall. Will he ever be free of those thoughts and feelings? Do those thoughts and feelings mean he still loves her?
