Managing betrayal after an unexpected discovery
While speaking to Briefly News relationship expert and Founder of Engaged Humans, Paula Quinsee, explained to the publication that discovery of unexpected evidence of another person’s presence in your home (such as sanitary waste and weave hair) can be a shock to the system and trigger strong feelings of betrayal, suspicion and insecurity.
The relationship expert advised that before making emotional and irrational decisions, use this approach to handle the situation:
- Try to remain calm – avoid jumping to conclusions before gathering all the details as there may well be explanations you have not considered.
- Open communication – instead of making accusations, ask your partner calmly about what you have found and observe their response and reasoning.
- Acknowledge your emotions – feeling betrayed can cause us to experience anger, sadness, and anxiety, so take the time to process your emotions before confronting your partner.
- Assess your relationship boundaries – if there is a history of dishonesty, this discovery can point to deeper issues and impact trust in the relationship.
- Decide on your options – once you have heard your partner’s response and perspective, assess the impact on your relationship’s overall health to determine your next steps, which could be needing some time apart, seeking professional help to reevaluate trust and boundaries moving forward.
