Hysterical bonding - do I go with it or resist

[InShockWhatToDo]

So thank you mumsnet - I thought I was going crazy wanting to have sex with my H after an 8 year dry spell (my doing) after finding out about his affair.

Our current thinking is that We want to see if we can make the relationship work or not. A joint journey of working it out as a couple and also as individuals with counselling and hard work.

But do I act on my desire - I understand the theory behind hysterical bonding and think it totally explains the reawakens of my desire to sleep with him, to touch him, to be hugged by him etc etc.

But can it be useful to not act on it or should I with open eyes let nature do its thing and go with the flow.

I think that's the best plan, tbh. Everything is so up in the air taking any big steps isn't wise.

And I agree he should have gone behind your back. Regardless of the situation. Good luck OP I hope it works out

He's a gambling addict, liar and cheat. Is it really worth pouring more of your life into this?

Wow. You've had nothing but trouble, all huge stuff - now this . Gruesome
