So What Do You Do - and Where Do You Turn - After an Affair?
Hi, we’re Linda and Doug.
We’re not therapists. We’re not authors of some polished relationship manual. We’re a real couple who’ve lived through the devastation of infidelity—and came out the other side with a deeper, more connected marriage than we ever thought possible.
When infidelity hits, it’s like an emotional bomb goes off. Whether you’re the one who was betrayed or the one who had the affair, the pain, confusion, and chaos that follows can leave you paralyzed.
We get it—because we’ve been there too.
We Created This Site For People Just Like You
Back in 2009, we started Emotional Affair Journey because we couldn’t find the kind of real, honest, experience-based help we needed. So we started sharing our story—and suddenly, people from all over the world started sharing theirs too.
Since then, we’ve connected with thousands of people struggling with the aftermath of emotional and physical affairs. People who feel lost, angry, ashamed, and completely unsure of how to move forward. People who want to heal but don’t know where to start.
If that’s you, take a deep breath—you’re not alone.
And no, it’s not too late.
Yes, It’s Hard. But Yes, It’s Possible.
Surviving infidelity isn’t just about saving the marriage—it’s about rebuilding trust, understanding what went wrong, and creating something new from the ashes of what broke.
We won’t sugarcoat it: this is hard work. But with the right tools, the right mindset, and the right support, your relationship can not only recover—it can thrive.
That’s what happened for us. Not because we were perfect, but because we were willing to do the work. And we’ve spent the last decade helping others do the same—through our blog, mentoring, and programs built from lived experience and hard-earned insight.
