In working through an affair, some decisions will need to consider the unique relationship between you and your spouse. What worked for mom and dad may be a good thing to do, but is it the best thing to do? They discovered what worked for their relationship. it often requires effort to find what works in your unique relationship. Relationships are not a “one size fits all” situation. Applying one size fits all solutions is a sure way to impede intimacy. You may find something that has helpful aspects, but consider whether it works for you and your spouse in improving the intimacy between the both of you.

Most often if you do what mom and dad did, you will likely end up with the same dirty laundry that mom and dad had as well. It also does not help intimacy when you compare your relationship with that of your parents. You need to see your spouse as a unique, original person without comparing them to others.
