Things You Should Know
- Don’t expect the cheated-upon to get over infidelity quickly. The cheater must be patient and kind, allowing their partner the time they need to grieve.
- Have an open conversation about what needs to change between both partners. Reconciliation requires shared continued effort and commitment.
- Consider working with a marriage counselor to create a reconciliation plan. In this safe and open environment, both partners may be better able to communicate.
