DEAR CHRISTINE: Happily married after admitting to cheating

Dear Christine,

THANK YOU for printing the following testimonial.

I hope it will help married couples who have strayed.

Six years ago, my wife found out that I had been having an affair with a woman at work for more than three years. Her husband called my wife and told her all the details.

It happened five days before Christmas, and I had to call both our families to explain why we would not be attending the holiday gatherings.

I also had to explain to our teenage daughter why I was moving out of our home.

We are a very close family, and when I faced the ugliness of what I had done and the hurt I caused, I realised what a fool I’d been.

After convincing my wife that I would do absolutely anything to stay married to her, she allowed me to move back home and seemed willing to give it a try.

We worked with a wonderful counsellor who helped us to rediscover each other, and we fell in love all over again – 25 years after we’d done it the first time.

 We also became best friends, and truly have a dream marriage now.

Christine, I will always feel guilt and sadness about what I did However, love and forgiveness gave us a way to begin again.

– Blessed

Dear Blessed,

Thanks for sharing this story about love and forgiveness.

It could only have happened because both sides agreed to work on the relationship.

Let’s hope it’s a blessing to couples out there.

– CHRISTINE
