Hope Rising 2018: Apology from the Unfaithful

    Being a betrayed husband, I have noticed that most everything on this matter (online) is from the perspective that the husband is the unfaithful spouse or the abuser, and the wife is always the victim. It seems like their is no place, community, or solace for the betrayed man. My trauma is real. My pain is real. My loneliness is real, and all undeserved.

    did you watch the videos with Dr. John Haney and I? those will help along with the video by amanda. you're correct in many ways, but there are resources. also, there was a female who read an apology letter to a group of male betrayed spouses but it wasn't recorded. thanks for watching and sharing

    @@KevinKallsen - This apology was originally written by an unfaithful wife. Samuel edited it to make it his own. At Hope Rising, the author read the letter to the betrayed men in a separate location from where Samuel gave his to the betrayed women. It was very powerful. She, however, was not comfortable with being recorded. I hope that you knowing that the apology was written by a wife will help.

    I cried listening and watching this. I cried because u put words that i so long to hear from my wife. I cried because u put emotions to words that my wife could not. I cried because i feel lonely. I cried because i feel so alienated. I cried because people tell me to get over it, to buck up but i just cant. I cried because im afraid to be happy to be loved by the thought of what it comes back full circle. I cried because at the point of hopelessness, that its ok to hope even if what i see and feel does not translate to that. I cried because i hear my wife speaking those words. Thank you for making me cry a river.

    As the only worthy apology I will ever receive, I intend to watch this every day until I can get through it without sobbing. I can already feel the improvement. This is 18 months on and I still am in shock at the loss of whom I regarded as my best friend. Every day I try to remind myself that it was and still is his choice, so it is likely to remain so. Sad. But real.

    I wish I could hear those words from my husband. I only hear" I am sorry you feel this way because of me" turning himself to a victim. I wish he could sit down a write a letter like this. I wish I wasnt the one that had to discover his LIES. I wish that when we got together after a separation he would have remembered the PROMISE he made to me that NEVER AGAIN. I wish that after listening to one of the videos he would come from a humble place in his being. I wish I wasnt asking for the impossible ... to be humble and to be understanding as a constant in our relationship. I wish I wish I wouldn't have the empathy to understand him more than he understands me.

    As a betrayed spouse, I’m sitting here nodding my head with tears rolling down my face. I never imagined I would hear something that so accurately describes what I’m going through and the shame and hopelessness I feel as a betrayed wife. My husband is still gone and we don’t have contact with each other. He has no idea that I’m still hanging on to a tiny shred of hope that we can someday restore our family. After almost 5 months since DDay and I still cry everyday. I need to take medications for anxiety, depression, high blood pressure and even just to fall asleep at night. The only pain I can imagine that is worse than this would be the loss of a child, which I somewhat feel as well because he’s blocked me from having any contact with my 3 stepchildren. My family doesn’t understand and they just roll their eyes and tell me to get over him and move on when I start to get emotional. As a result, I just stay at home by myself and stay isolated from people who know me to escape the “tough love” treatment. I have a long way to go but I’m so thankful for this video. I pray someday my husband will hear this and we can begin the road to recovery.

What u can do is control who I want to be despite her choices. I don’t know if she will ever apologize nor be accountable for her actions. What I do know is as each day goes by and she refuses to apologize the pain continues. I also know I have to make some hard choices. Please pray for all who suffer from betrayal.

    Im here bc my fiancé & father of my kids cheated on me with a woman who was trying to break us up, and kept it secret for 2 years. It’s been 4 months, and no healing has occurred and he even told me to ‘move on’. This letter made me cry uncontrollably, I hope one day he can tell me these words. I sent him one of the KZread AR videos & he seems to be finally understanding how much this has hurt/traumatized me. I have to take anxiety meds and sleeping pills to help my panic attacks/insomnia created by this occurrence. I told him I will not marry him until I am treasured/treated with endless compassion like the affair partner was, because that’s what I deserve having been loving and loyal to him all these years. I just don’t want to feel this unbearable pain anymore.

    I only found out about my husbands infidelity 3 weeks ago. I was shattered to say the least. Still am. I never thought that he would ever actualy do it. And that with the one person he said I need not to worry about. It is not the infidelity it self that hurts but all the lies. Blaming me for his choices and making himself the victim. No apology or recognition of his wrong doing. Not seeing how broken and utterly shattered I am. Ripping me apart with each and every word he speaks at any given moment the opportunity that arises. Making me feel guilty and shameful for the truth that came to light. Making me the bad one with family and friends. And somehow for some twisted reason I cannot help to see him as this shattered person he is. This apology ripped through every ounce of my body. Wondering if he ever will be remorseful. Will he ever see what it did to me and our children. I can't ' help feeling hopeless and hopefull at the same time. So confusing while trying to pick up the peaces left of my heart.

    This made me cry. I have had 5 years of apologies from my husband. He met with her on Monday it was to end it once and for all. So what happened? She invited him into her house for a coffee - big mistake! Tgey ended up half naked and played with each other. My husband said it wasn't anything too bad 😮😈. He doesn't understand why I'm so traumatised by the whole sordid affair. We've just celebrated our 43rd wedding anniversary, he's 77 and I'm 62, his mistress is 72. This evening I have decided once and for all that he and her can be together. My health and sanity is more important to me that their infatuation with each other. So if my husband wanted to apologise to me yet again I would tell him to stick it where the sun don't shine.

    You have helped me immensely to get through this... in the last 2 months. My husband is not regretful, and this is a deal breaker for me emotionally... he does all the right things, but cannot say the right things... it is very confusing and messed up. Thank you Samuel for all the sharing and virtual support, I am not religious but I am spiritual, and I hope wonderful things come your way in this universe to help you to keep helping us that feel alone and misunderstood (we are unable to put into words ourselves) but your videos guide us through it. Bless you and your team.

Your videos have helped me. I am trying to work through the pain. My husband just wants me to move on and forget it. I can't. It has been 7 months. He hasn't apologized to my kids. I feel that is important. I don't feel like he has truly apologized to me.. he says he feels bad and it shouldn't have happened but the way I treated him.... using me as an excuse. He has accused me for about 28 years of cheating. I never did. Eventually I shut down and gave him the silent treatment that he has done to me all these years which lead him to affairs. Thank you for all that you do. It can't be easy for you and your wife.

    I completely agree I betrayed my spouse and have committed to changing my ways and working and doing everything necessary I can to fix our relationship and I’ve found it hard to put my apology into word by mouth or words but this put everything i try to tell him or want to tell him but can’t put into words. To all the betrayed from the unfaithful some of us do want to change and will do anything to repair the damage. Sometimes it’s hard to apologize without sounding like we are trying to speed up the healing process but when some of us apologize over and over it’s not fake or misplaced it’s just hard to say all the words he just said but we mean all the words and all the things he has said. To the unfaithful if you decide to stay and change love them through all of it and make sure to keep telling them and showing them you choose them even on the bad days and take ownership on those days.

His work wife called me and told me they had been seeing each other and she was pregnant. I found the son on social media and the PTSD for 2 1/2 years has been horrible. Worst than the problem when it happened. I’m 80 years old and better but still have so much resentment and even bitterness. I guess I’ll die alone in this misery. My family thinks I have every kind of mental disorder they can come up with. I don’t have anyone.

So many times I thought perhaps I was "over dramatic", but I see now since discovering this channel, I am not in fact as alone in this as I thought. Thank you for this.

    After 34 years of marriage and 10 years after divorce and longing to get an apology these words has helped me. I thought i had healed but i know now I had not. Making a go at a reconciliation just reopened the old wounds when he lied to me, never apologized, just made excuses as a narcissist would. I realize i was not dealing with other women, i was dealing with childhood trauma of my husband that he never got treatment or healed from. As I truly heal and rebuild my life, I do it with the help of YAH (GOD). Hate takes too much energy. My health has began to suffer now. I have to get things together. Thanks so much for this video.
