PreMarital Infidelity

It is sometimes the case that the issue of infidelity arises when a couple is engaged. Plans for the BIG DAY are in the works, money is spent; the upcoming wedding is a dream come true and it's on it's way. Then, through accident or confession, an infidelity is uncovered. It may be recent or back when you were first dating. It may have been a brief mistake or a prolonged affair. Whatever the case, this discovery is devastating. And the timing is a nightmare.

Engaged & Cheating

There is never a good time to realize that your partner has been unfaithful. But finding out on the way to the wedding is another level of upheaval. You are excited to get married, you've found your person, your love is strong. You know there will be challenges along the way but are comforted knowing that you'd be facing them together, giving each other strength. You expected rough patches but you never expected it would be this. I am deeply sorry if you are going though anything like this. I know how upsetting & crushing it can be.

You are already under stress with the practical details of event planning but now you can't think straight, you don't know what to do. Do you tell people? Will they slam your partner and scorn your marriage if you go through with it? Will your parents hate your partner and make the wedding tense? Should you even get married? Should you forgive? Is this a test? If they cheated once will they do it again? Every possible question passes through your mind. What you want is to feel loved, safe and normal again. You need a place to work things out. Someplace calm, free from distraction. Counseling as a Couple can be that for you.
