Relationships are an endless dance of harmony, disharmony, and repair.

Knowing the skills to repair is the difference between a good relationship and a great one.

When your trauma wounds are triggered, the past overtakes the present. You're in fight-or-flight, and a primal part of you takes over.

This part of you has no interest in intimacy – all it cares about is survival.

In my book “Us”, I share a Trauma Grid to help you understand more about your wounds.

If you betrayed your spouse your first goal must be to help them heal. If you hope to be able to save your relationship, you have to do the work to win her back.

If you hope to get the chance to save your relationship, you must:
a) have a clear and precise vision of your goal;
b) be willing to take risks;
c) be able to tolerate pushback;
d) have a "desire" that is defined and absolute; and
e) not waiver from your purpose of want to help your
partner/spouse heal.

A call to action from the work of Charles Swindoll (Pastor)

The longer I live the more I realize the impact of attitude on life.
Attitude to me is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other people think, or say, or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness, or skill.
It will make or break a company, a church, a home.

The remarkable thing is we have a choice, every day regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one thing we have and that is our attitude.

I am convinced that life is 10% of what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. And so it is with you. We are in charge of our attitudes, our choices, our decisions.

Don't waste energy feeling bad or sorry for yourself.

Keep your eye on your destination and always keep moving in that
direction.

Spend time with people who bring out the best in you.

Have faith and trust in whatever is happening now, will ultimately
be for the good. Faith is the antidote for fear.

Love your self and believe in your intrinsic value and worth.

Regardless of what happens...you have inherent value and worth. You were born with it! Your value is constant. As Pia Mellody told us, "it can neither be added to or subtracted from." It is a constant and you are great just because you are yourself.

About David Feder & Close Connections

I founded Close Connections seventeen years ago because I believed that people needed a professional who understood what those who experienced infidelity were going through. I decided to specialize in helping people recover from an affair and to give people like you what they needed: a road map that provided them with a structure to follow during the darkest time in their life. I realized that after finding out that their partner had an affair, people were in a free-fall heading nowhere.

I believed that after an affair, far too many people were ending their committed relationship because they didn’t know what else to do. They just didn’t know how to recover because, after all, haven’t we all bought into the falsehood that marriages last forever? So I decided to create a roadmap that in most cases lead to recovery and not divorce.

I also believed that regardless of whether people stayed together or not after an affair, it was imperative that couples reduced the animosity that the discovery of an affair creates between spouses. Spouses who are either loving or tolerant of one another often become warring partners after an affair, and this hurts children. So I decided to provide a program of recovery that reduces the animosity between spouses for the sake of the children. Studies have proven that children from broken homes do more poorly if the animosity between their parents continues after separation. I dedicated myself to reduce those toxic emotions for the sake of the children and for their hurting parents.

At Close Connections we are passionate about helping people recover from infidelity. Everyone will recover from infidelity – you have no choice – the question is HOW? We recognize that not everyone will want to stay together after an affair, but my VISION model gives people the structure they need to make a choice that is right for them.
