Prevent Two-timing Incidents From Splitting Your Relationship Apart

There are partners that get a divorce as soon as two-timing becomes a significant factor in the relationship. More often than not, the scenario is like this: only one partner cheats and the other partner finds out. The cheated partner feels like a victim, while the two-timing partner tries to find faults so he or she would not have to take all the responsibility. What could make things worse is the retaliation from the cheated partner. One episode of two-timing could warrant a never-ending cycle of retaliation, which could sooner or later result in the breakdown of the marriage.

When both spouses become so occupied in the emotions of jealousy and anger, nothing else seems to matter but the need to lash out. More troubles turn up, including misgivings correlated with money and other family responsibilities. The once-happy relationship is wrought with issues brought on by infidelity. Cheating is a venom that does not only obliterate trust, but brings about more problems. Infidelity digs up past hurts and other kinks in the relationship.

These former issues turn out to be usable weapons that the cheated partner uses against the two-timing partner. Little things in the household environment that might usually be written off as ‘usual’ are overblown by the truth that one partner has been unfaithful. For instance, when the spouse forgets to take out the trash in the evening, the partner would rant like crazy all through breakfast even when she used to overlook something like this.

What's the solution for a failing marriage? Is there hope for the marriage even when spouses try to search for comfort by finding other partners? Is divorce really the only way out? Marriage counseling is something you must be able to consider first before filing for annulment or divorce.

A professional involvement is in order. Couples can begin by seeking a counselor to help them with their issues. The third party (the therapist) asks questions that provoke consideration and contemplation in both the man and the woman. Some questions are sharp and cruel because they bring forth brimming emotions. The counselor is the mediator that is totally unbiased. Marriage counseling compels the married couple to see their relationship in an unbiased manner.

Inadvertently, going to therapy together would be something that the married couple can do over the weekends. Walking or driving to the counselor’s office together, grabbing a bite along the way or stopping to get coffee at a neighborhood café can do wonders for a relationship hitting the skids. At long last, a rendezvous between two people that have not been on a date for a long time. The married couple can recover from the occurrence of two-timing so that they can fix their relationship.
