About the Life After Cheating category

Talk about the emotional side, rebuilding or ending things.

To process, rebuild, vent, or reflect — this category is for anyone living in the after. You might be trying to heal a relationship, start fresh alone, co-parent, or just figure out what trust looks like now. Whatever your next step is, this is where others get it.

Unlike Proof & Confrontation or Catch or Confirm, which focus on the lead-up to discovery or direct action, this category centers on the recovery phase. Whether your story ended with reconciliation, divorce, or something in between, Life After Cheating is about long-term healing — not immediate crisis.

What should topics in this category generally contain?

  • Emotional aftermath: trust issues, anxiety, identity struggles

  • Rebuilding intimacy and communication

  • Co-parenting or shared responsibilities post-infidelity

  • Success stories or setbacks in staying together

  • Moving on, dating again, or rediscovering yourself

  • Long-term reflections, growth, or lingering doubts
