How do you recover?  I don't want any judgement as to why I entered an affair. There is no excuse but I do have my reasons.

A 5 year affair ended recently. It's like grief knowing I will never ever see him again. How do you recover? It was secret as in no one knew so therefore I've no one to speak to.

Have you considered therapy as an option?

We all grieve the loss of any relationship, regardless of the situation. And grieving is hard work. It’s very painful. 

Counselling would be a very wise thing to do, if you are not already doing so. Journalling may also help.

Otherwise, I would practice self care in the way that you would after any other loss… with time, you will begin to imagine a different life for yourself. But, not before you’ve cried a lot of tears, listened to a lot of sad songs, taken a lot of long walks, and eaten a lot of ice cream. 

Best wishes.
