Synopsis
At a time when many people were just beginning to explore the power of the Internet, DRB Alternatives, Inc. began an on-line support group to help people affected by infidelity. Over the next few years, the site was visited by thousands of people around the world and received national media attention. Many participants called this site their "lifeline." It offered a place for people to come together to help one another through one of the most difficult times of their lives. Infidelity Reflections is a compilation of some of the posts to this board. The book takes the reader on a journey through the myriad of emotions encountered by all of the parties affected by an affair. As one member of the group put it: "After four years of silence I stumbled into this place and for the first time I didn't feel alone. I was amazed when I read other people's posts because there on the screen were all of my feelings coming from other people. I was home."

CHAPTER 1
The Roller Coaster- When We Find Out
When you first find out
It is important to realize that you are on the worst emotional roller coaster ride of your life. You will have moments of deep despair, fear, doubt, blinding rage and regret. At times you will feel physcially hurt. You will function on autopilot for weeks (or months). You will put yourself under the most scrutinizing microscope ever imagined. You will waffle from believing you did not deserve this to blaming yourself. You will hang on and you will let go. At times you will be afraid and at times you will be the epitome of courage. In short, you will have a profound, life altering, foundation shaking, earth-moving rearrangement of your universe.
