Thank you so much for providing this video. You have helped me so much! It hit right at home with my own journey with my husband. I do have a question. You mentioned at the start of the video that even though you wanted to give up your affair that you could not. You also mentioned that when your AP called you at a later date, that if you did not cut off communcation with her right then, you could possible resume your affair with her. Why is that? This is an area which I struggle with my husband's bands 'story." He states wanted to be out of the "friendship" with his co-worker once it turned physical Yet, he did not know why he could not stop the "habit." I am hoping that you provide some insight on this. Even through therapy, nobody can give me an answer/insight and this is what is leaving me stuck. I so respect both you and Stephanie for all that you have gone through and all of the important information that you have provided. Thank you

I appreciated your sharing your story but I would have liked to hear more from Stephanie. A lot of the video is just you talking about YOUR feelings and struggles. We hear very little about why Stephanie decided to accept what you had done and stay with you anyway, and that is the hardest part for me. Didn't she ever struggle with this? Why don't you talk about that? It just seems like you both assumed she would stay and you would work on your recovery - even though she lost her friends, her church, her community and her trust in you in one fell swoop. Why did she forgive you?
