Let Off Some Steam

And you can even bring out the demons that have been disturbing you and ask them if they think that you might have weakened your marriage or even driven him into another woman’s arms through your suspiciousness, all the weight you have put on, your nagging ways, a lack of interest in intimacy, etc.

In other words, with friends, you can let off steam, knowing that there will be no repercussions, knowing that these people are on your side. The unstinting support we get from friends increases our self-confidence and sense of self-worth even after a devastating cheating spouse issue. Talking things over freely and frankly also helps us get things into perspective so that we can decide what we are going to do.
