But no matter how you want to cut in him in pieces, deep inside you still love him- a fact that makes everything more difficult for you. After the affair is time of much deliberation and decision making on how to start over.
One of the things you should to is to recover from a confidence and esteem shattering occurrence. You should find means and ways to bring back your strong sense of self. You have to take care, prioritize and pamper yourself, anything to regain your self worth. Believe and live that you will rise from this.

Some of the things you need to do to recover is to ask for support, from parents, friends or even going to the therapist. Know your strength and nurture them- if you are good in dancing enroll in a dance class. Develop your sense of humor- huumor cannot solve or make your problems disappear but it can’t make anything worst either.
Using a sense of humor can give a different perspective of the situation- laughing at your problems can make it a little less heavy. Having sense of humor about the incident means accepting yourself and the situation. After the affair, try to be friendly and amiable to other people- saying “thank you” or “your welcome” to your doorman, mail man, even the gasoline boy.
The reason for this is to create connection, since this is what you need after being alienated and isolated by the depression caused by his philandering. And interaction and shed new light to yourself of how fascinating and effective you are. After the affair, lending an ear and getting involved is good for you- yes you are preoccupied and hurt but listening and lending a hand can make you forget your own problems for a while.
Go out and smell the roses-cease the day! Have fun- if dancing makes you feel free for awhile, then call up your friends and go on a night out and dance the night away. After the affair of your husband, have a total but subtle make over of your appearance.
Get your hair done, hair cut can somehow boost your morale, cover those white hairs and look young again. Consider having some highlights to enhance your look. Of course, deciding to go to the gym is a perfect ideal for a total make over- doing aerobics or yoga can definitely shed those extra years away.
Don’t be afraid to try new things. Doing new things can be a liberating experience. Try bungee jumping or swimming with the dolphins in your local water club can make you feel new and nice- ‘gives you a sense of second chance in life.” If you love being around with people, organizing and agreeing to have an after and regular barb-q day every Sunday can be quite fun and unfettering, especially if you use to be an introvert person.
Being indulgent to your needs right now is good for you- just be sure you don’t spend away those life savings- do something out of the ordinary. It also helps especially during your quiet moments to write down your blues moments. Having a journal or diary can be of great help especially, in somehow alleviates your mood swings and gives you time to reflect and look at things outside of the box.
After the affair of your husband, things will never be the same again- you are now stronger and better. The incident maybe devastatingly traumatic but you are now wise enough not to be beaten up by the situation and you come out as the winner.
