He is currently texting with a girl that he used to text with in a sexual context 4 months ago. He says it's no longer sexual, just small talk and he's shown me some of the messages. - I felt neglected when he was deep in his addiction, and I had a one-night stand. How do we restore our relationship? - After years in recovery, my husband is still triggered by some of my behaviors that remind him of when I was having an affair.
