My wife, Rosa, and I have been happily married for 15 years. We’ve always been more than just spouses—we’ve been kindred spirits, united by trust and understanding. But recently, everything changed.
I made a huge mistake. I cheated on Rosa with a client. I don’t know why I did it, but after a short time, I couldn’t handle the guilt. I ended the affair, cut off contact with her, and confessed everything to Rosa. I’ve been in therapy since, trying to fix myself.
Rosa was devastated. She became distant, depressed, and angry. I begged her not to divorce me, offering therapy and even suggesting she date other men to cope, but she just asked for space. I moved out and called her every day, but she didn’t want to talk.
Three weeks later, she surprised me by asking me to move back in. She said she wanted to work things out and immediately started being the loving wife I’d always known. We’re trying to rebuild, but it’s been tough.
