Why is it so hard for someone who cheated to break ties with the affair partner? It isn’t always because they love the affair partner more. Sometimes the affair became tied to escape, validation, fantasy, novelty, emotional attachment, and a version of themselves they didn’t have to confront in their real life. Ending the affair means facing the consequences, grieving the fantasy, and doing the uncomfortable work of understanding WHY they chose it in the first place. ❤️‍🩹 #affair #sidechick #cheating #infidelity #betrayaltrauma
