I also explain the vicious and calculated antics my husband's other woman resorted to when the affair ended and how that effected me. We also talk about how you're perceived, as a wife, when you respond to the terrible decisions made by those around you.

Episode 7: *TRIGGER WARNING* Please be careful listening if you are struggling with post-infidelity trauma. I had an emotional breakthrough this week, while P has had a pretty stressful time with one thing and another. She also had some urges around contacting the other woman, so in response to that and some listener's questions, we finally address the topic of "the other woman". Did we contact, confront or communicate with them in anyway? What's the best way to deal with this?
