I'm sure you are feeling a sense of loss since your affair has been uncovered and also struggling to keep your marriage together. It doesn't matter if it was a one night stand or a long romantic affair, you face a difficult but not impossible battle.

I don't need to tell you about the severe pain and hurt that you have caused your spouse. However, if you don't clearly understand how angry and disappointed your spouse is, you need to. The best chance you have to keep your marriage together is to really be able to accept responsibility for your unfaithfulness and do your part to make things right.

There is no magic formula or plan to hold your marriage together. However, the following steps might help you rebuild your marriage and relationship.

Follow Your Spouses' Lead To Keep Your Marriage

Your spouse has been wounded as a result of your cheating and probably is a little confused at this point. He or she may be unsure at this point how to begin the healing and restoration process. Your spouse may flip-flop on what you should be doing to make things right. Don't try to push your spouse into making decisions or giving you a feel if things can be worked out. I would suggest for the sake of keeping your marriage together, you practice being humble and patient.

Be Honest and Clear To Keep Your Marriage

There is very little that can derail your efforts to rebuild your marriage after being unfaithful then dishonesty or vagueness. You have already broken the trust your spouse had in you. If you demonstrate at all that you are being dishonest or holding back key information that would impact your relationship, you will have a hard time keeping your marriage together. You owe it to your spouse be honest.

Honor Your Promises

Clearly, you have or will be making promises to keep your marriage together. Again, you have to earn back the trust your spouse once had for you. This can only be done as you keep your word going forward. Don't make promises that you can't keep.

Don't Patronize Your Spouse

The last thing your spouse needs is your patronizing. If you don't agree with something your spouse is saying or doing, be willing to discuss it. Agreeing with statements or points of views your spouse brings up for the sake of trying to make him or her feel good will be seen for what it is, phony.
