For the sake of maintaining a relationship, you should not tell your partner about the betrayal if it was a one-time affair. This opinion was expressed by psychologist Veronika Khatskevich to Lente.ru. The expert noted that the person who has changed must understand that after recognition, the relationship will never be the same.
Khatskevich added that, according to many, it is necessary to report betrayal, since it is allegedly honest in relation to a loved one. However, by their behavior, traitors ease their lot, relieve themselves of the burden of secrecy, the psychologist is sure. She suggested a different look at the fait accompli of treason. The traitor must understand whether, after confessing, he is ready to put an end to everything that connected him with his partner.
“To talk about betrayal is selfish,” the psychologist believes. “This is how a person shifts responsibility, relieves himself of guilt, tension and does not think about his partner.”
Another psychologist, Alena Savinova, advised me to figure out what relationships are built on in a couple, and what prompted one of the partners to decide to cheat. In her opinion, after betrayal, people need the help of a specialist who will help loved ones understand themselves, understand where the balance is broken and agree on new realities. Savinova pointed out that many people are sure that treason should be hidden, because she will never be forgotten and she will not be forgiven. However, in this case, a lie will always stand between a man and a woman, and in this case there is little chance of maintaining a relationship.
Psychologists have noticed that after confessing to cheating, the chances of maintaining a relationship decrease, but if the secret is kept, the partner may feel that something is being hidden from him. As a result, a crisis may arise in a relationship, and psychologists and sexologists will help to get out of it.
