Infidelity is a hurt that never seems to go away. The pain will subside for a few days and then a song, or driving past a particular location and “Wham!” the pain returns. Like many sin-based behaviors, there are often patterns associated with Infidelity and its pain. You may find that when you return to the times of year that the infidelity occurred or the place where it occurred, the pain is revived. Although many wrongs can be fixed, this one is like a stain that never goes away. It is like a tell-tale stain that even though faded reminds its victims that it happened.
Knowing that the pain of infidelity often follows patterns, when you discover the pattern, take steps to change that pattern. Go somewhere different. Change your routine. Create new meanings for the time of year that the infidelity occurred or when you remember it. These changes will not fully take the pain away, but it will allow you to feel more in control in dealing with it.
