I Just Got Cheated On, What Should I Do (Part 2)

February 23, 20261 min read


In this episode Brannon and Tyler talks about what to do in your relationship after infidelity is discovered—especially in the raw days after D-Day—without rushing the process or making things worse. They explain why trying to “fix trust” immediately often backfires, and break down the 5 H’s (hovering, hating, hugging, hopelessness, and hiding) that can quietly sabotage healing. You’ll also learn why healthy boundaries, surrendering your partner’s recovery, and guided disclosure are key steps toward rebuilding real trust through authenticity, courage, and consistent growth over time.
