Caught Cheating? How to Move Forward After Being Unfaithful
2. Cut off the “other man”
In order to resolve your relationship, contact with “the other person” must be cut off 100 percent. You can’t work on dealing with the consequences of the affair while you’re still having it. Keeping a person in your life with whom you have had an affair is like trying to put toothpaste back into the tube. Not only is this a confusing message to the other person, it is also extremely disrespectful to your boyfriend or spouse. It does not matter if you have known the other man since kindergarten, or have to see him at work. It is time to break those ties. Do what you must to avoid any contact. It’s a baby step in the right direction by showing your man that you are committed to making things right and want to forget about your terrible mistake.
