“It would have been easier to find out he had died. Then, at least, his leaving wouldn't have been deliberate and I wouldn't be tormented over why he wanted someone else more than me.”

Orlando, Florida: Although the affair counseling offered on this site is available only to those living in or traveling to the Orlando/Central Florida area, the information and resources listed here are intended to be helpful to anyone who needs help coping with an affair.

Affair. Infidelity. Adultery. No matter what label we attach to it, it's an issue that has managed to touch most of us in one way or another. Since you're reading this, it's likely that you, in particular, are experiencing the confusion or pain that eventually surrounds most affairs.

Recent studies indicate that around half of men and women are involved in extramarital affairs by the time they are 40. Once an affair is discovered, marriages struggle to survive and each person involved is forced to deal with emotions and choices that will have a significant impact on the rest of his or her life. There is no such thing as an affair without consequences.

Questions emerge: How could this have happened? Can I ever trust my spouse again? Is my marriage worth saving? How can I be married to someone I am no longer in love with? What did I do wrong? Should I forgive? When will the pain go away? Do we stay together for the sake of the children?

Here's the truth: there is good news and bad news when it comes to recovering from an affair. The bad news: It will take time and effort to get through this. The good news: Healing is possible. In fact, the goal of affair recovery is not to just get "back to normal," but to get to a better place than you were before. The work it takes to get there is worth it.

This site is created for those of you who have been touched by an affair with the hope that you will experience restoration. You'll find insight, warning, and encouragement from questions and answers based on Tim Tedder's work with individuals and couples and from the stories and comments of those who have been where you are now.
