@michaeljfit: If you cheated, waiting for your spouse to bring up the affair is making it harder for them to trust you. You believe avoiding the subject protects them from more pain. To your betrayed spouse, your silence feels like avoidance. It makes them question whether you care, understand the damage, or have already moved on. Start the conversation yourself. Ask: “Were you triggered by anything today?” “Are there any new questions you want to ask me?” “Is there anything I previously explained that still does not make sense?” Your spouse needs to see that you are willing to face the discomfort required to give them comfort.
