Q: Is it wrong for me to withhold sex from my husband when I know he has cheated?
A: We can definitely understand the anger and hurt you must be feeling as a result of your husband’s affair.An affair, emotionally or physically, is called an attachment injury, meaning it’s an injury to your emotional bond.So, it makes sense that you would not feel like being sexually intimate with your husband right now.However, we would recommend you work through that hurt and work toward repairing your bond together rather than continuing to withhold sex from your husband.Dealing directly with the issue(s) is a much better approach.
If you have trouble with this, please feel free to contact us or a relationship therapist. We hope this helps!
