Affair Surviving - 3 Reasons Why Asking Your Husband To Go To Counseling Is A Big Mistake
By Denise A. Dilmore
If you have recently found out about your husband's affair, you know just how devastating affair surviving really is. You may want to ask your husband to attend counselling sessions as you feel they are needed to save your marriage. Think again! Asking your husband to go to counselling is a big mistake.
Over 50% of couples and individuals who seek marriage counselling after an affair reported the counselling seldom worked. If both couples were not 100% committed to the affair surviving help, the cheating spouse entered counselling guarded and with little intent to interact or disclose any deep feelings.
The cheating spouse then often sabotaged the sessions and the end result was the counselling pushed them away rather than saved the marriage.
