If you and your mate are striving to save your marriage after as great a setback as adultery, you obviously face a difficult challenge. The first several months after the news is broken may be especially trying. But you can succeed! How can you rebuild trust? The wisdom found in the Bible can help. Consider the following four suggestions.
1 Be Honest With Each Other. “Now that you have put away falsehood, speak truth,” wrote the apostle Paul. (Ephesians 4:25) Lies, half-truths, and even silence undermine trust. So you need to speak openly and honestly with each other.
At first, you and your mate may be too upset to discuss the infidelity. Eventually, though, you will need to talk candidly about what happened

I want to thank everyone for all their encouraging words. Well, as of Thursday she left to go on a business trip. Mind you she works with child services and she had to go to deal with a family in desperate need of help. I told her of what has been said here, but of course in my own words. I had said that I love her and the kids love her and we need her to rejoin our family. I know you help many families through your job and that is so awesome and very admirable. I need her to be the wife I married and a mother to our children. I also had stated that we both lost a son and we need to get through this together. I also said that she needed to stop drinking and needed to attend AA meetings in our area and attend anger management at least for a few sessions. Anyway, she came back this morning a totally different person. I guess turns out she had to help a family go through what my wife and I had to go through with the loss of our son. When I picked her up at the airport she ran into my arms and hugged our kids and never wanted to let go. I had a hard time not crying, cause that is not very manly. LOL. She told my that she wanted to put our family back together. I feel like our family is complete again. I didn't have to go to our church for some counseling.
