The anxiety that is hanging over you is getting in the way of your day to day life. 😳 You can live like this or you can sit down and tell your wife what happened and why it happened and ask for her forgiveness. I know you’re afraid of losing her because you made a mistake, but that fear you’re living with is not going to go away unless she is the one who banishes it. It’s not this other guy you’re afraid of — it’s your wife’s disappointment and possible rejection. While this is clearly an awful fear, the only way to truly have relief is to take full responsibility and be the one to tell her.
Imagine how awful it’s going to be if she finds out from someone else — this guy or a friend of a friend of a friend of an acquaintance. Your betrayal was bad, but if she finds out that other people are talking about the betrayal and she’s the last one to know because you never told her — that’s going to be way worse for her and therefore for you.
People get over infidelities, but it takes an understanding of how and why it happened and a commitment to make things better.
I hope that helps. Let me know how things go.
