Summary
If your husband cheated and left you, it's one of the most heart-wrenching things anyone can go through. When the man who vowed to love you for better or worse betrays you, it affects your self-esteem, your health, your family, every aspect of your life. No one deserves to be treated that way. A lot of people will tell you it's time to give up on your marriage. But if you're reading this, there must be some part of you that still wants to make it work. The question is: How are you supposed to do that, especially if your husband is living with another woman? Or maybe he's saying he is done, he's not in love with you anymore and there's no changing his mind. It's enough to make anyone feel hopeless and ready to give up. Kudos to you for not giving up. Because as the wife, the keeper of your relationship, you have enormous power to turn things around, in my experience. On today's episode of The Empowered Wife Podcast, we're talking about why husbands come back after leaving for another woman.
My guest Julie's husband filed for divorce twice, and their marriage had little intimacy physically or emotionally. The whole thing seemed hopeless. But today her marriage is a delight because he dotes on her, they laugh together, and there's a lot of intimacy between them. She's going to tell us how she did it so you can do it too.
The Worst Relationship Advice of the Week Award goes to an article that promises "The Secret to Stopping Housework-Related Resentment" but actually just says the same old same old tired thing that you and I already tried and never, ever worked.
