Told myself I would come back in about 10 years and post. I would say my WS and I have 100% reconciled and moved on. We haven't really spoke of the affairs in about 6-8 years, every once in awhile something is brought up that reminds (usually a conversation about a location, movie or tv plots, etc.) which I guess will never go away. The 10 year time frame is about right I think after about 5 years I started to fully turn to building what felt like a new foundation and relationship with WS and then about 7-10 years post DD felt safe and the "is this going to work long term" thoughts left.
This all sound good and hopeful. However, the way I use to view my WS before DD that feeling, the naive person I was, will never return. Which is okay I am not sure it was a healthy way to view any partner as if they could do no wrong to you etc.
