I heard this song today. It reminded me of what my husband must have felt just after deciding that he was going to choose me, stay with me- give it a month he said. See what happens.

The lyrics, I'm not sure if he told her what he says in the beginning, but he thinks it. And they both declare their love with the other believing it mostly. And that is sort of how it is after the recovery. You believe they love you while not being able to believe it, or wondering if it will change. But you both need each other so much that you stay together. The option to leave is there, and maybe for the betrayed spouse they need to keep it there to have some sense of control. Perhaps Husband will take a listen to this song and tell me what he thinks.
