Men: Your Mind Won’t Let You Rest. Clean Up the Mess.
Few people talk about this. The results of cleaning up your own mess.
Like soiling your underwear, you scrape it off, rinse them out, then wash them.
Result: Clean underwear and you feel good.
If you shat in your own nest, you need to clean that shit out. You will need to rub and scrub that shit. It’s been there for a while. New shit on old. It will need to be cleansed and disinfected. The smell will linger for quite some time, however the result is a clean nest and a clean conscience.
You want the clean conscience. I know you do.
But something is keeping you stuck.
Perhaps it’s the fear of loss. Loss of the soothing strategy, validation, escaping, excitement, ability to hide, control … dunno.
It could be the fear of facing your “stuff”. Hurting her is going to hurt you. It’s painful.
Maybe it strikes fear in your heart and soul.
Remember though, cleaning out your nest, making it sparkly clean … feels good.
Like having washed the car and vacuumed the interior, it feels good just to look at it gleaming, and to drive. It’s a pleasure to drive a clean car.
It’s the same with infidelity.
You get to clean up your mess. You get to feel good again.
Your wife, however, won’t let you off the hook so quickly or easily. She has some serious pain and hurt to deal with. You get to help her with that too. It’s a part of cleaning up the mess. You will feel good about it.
The bumps and obstacles along the way help you to mature, become resilient, reliable and solid. You will walk taller. It feels like you will have gained a superpower. The trick is to remain humble.
I can help you find your agency and map out a path through this.
Clean up the mess and feel good.
