Get Ex Back - Steps To Resolving Infidelity
Posted at Feb 22nd, 2009 in Relationship Advice
Infidelity - one partner cheating on the other, is one of the biggest causes of relationship breakups. If your mate cheated on you, or you on them, you know it feels like a bomb went off in the relationship. Because when trust is damaged, one person almost always feel like I can never trust him/her again.
Love and trust are very closely connected. It is hard to have one without the other. So when the trust has been broken by infidelity, we may both feel like there is little hope for getting it back again. No matter how much we loved our partner, the betrayal damaged the core of our intimacy.
However, trust can be rebuilt, and it must be, in order for the relationship to have any chance. And, it can begin to be restored in minutes. Heres whats needed:
A Deep Apology is necessary. Not an easy to brush off apology, but a true, deep apology. There are different levels of apologizing, and most people don’t realize this. A Deep Apology is powerful.
Deep Apologies are the kinds of apologies needed to begin to restore trust once it has been broken. Deep Apologies are much more than saying Im sorry, no matter how much you mean it.
Deep apologies have several different steps involved in them before you actually say “I’m sorry.” One important step is to empathize with your mate by mirroring the emotional pain you caused by cheating on them. You need to make your mate feel deeply understood to get to deeper levels of forgiveness.
There are some other things you need to do for a deep apology. However, don’t just say “I’m sorry” and expect trust to be restored. It doesn’t work that way. And, a good deep apology involves listening to your mate as much as speaking.
If you are the one who was cheated on, and you want to get past the infidelity, there are also ways you can ask your mate to fess up and tell you how they think it made you feel. This will help you begin to let go of the hurt feelings. Again, there is more to all of this, but you can get past infidelity and save your relationship or marriage if you use some Emotional Intelligence to help restore the broken trust.
