Sometimes I wonder if we really can make a go of it again, or if too much is lost.
After marrying my best friend eight months ago, we began to have problems right away. He lived in a different state and we fought over the phone all the time. Things got really bad, and after being married for only six months, I had an affair. A month or so later he cheated on me also. We've decided to give each other a second chance, but I'm still struggling with overcoming his infidelity. Even though we've both been the victims, I can't stop picturing my husband with that other woman. I've almost become obsessed to the point of comparing myself to her. Wondering what she looks like and all that. I've lost weight and feel like I have to prove to my husband that I'm prettier than her or better in bed. It has done a lot of damage on my self-esteem. I'm sure he's going through the same issues, but he doesn't like to talk about it at all. Sometimes I wonder if we really can make a go of it again, or if too much is lost.
