An affair is often reduced to betrayal but behind it lies a far more complex human story.

Affairs come in different forms. Many begin quietly. Some are physical. Others are emotional affairs [1] where intimacy and attention are shared outside a committed relationship long before any physical line is crossed.

For Men , as husbands, partners, sons, and boyfriends, affairs don’t happen overnight. They unfold gradually through emotional distance, loneliness, unresolved resentment, accumulated negativity, avoidance, comparison with alternatives and idealising someone else [2]. Lust may be the spark, but it is rarely the whole fire.

When an affair is exposed, the aftermath can be devastating. Guilt, shame, anger, collapse of trust, fractured families and deep confusion about who we are and what we stand for. Some try to repair what was broken. Some choose to walk away.

This Men’s Circle holds space to reflect on affairs to look honestly at how they start, what they cost and what comes after. Whether you’ve been involved, affected, betrayed or tempted, this is a grounded space to explore responsibility, atonement and rebuilding trust [3]. Forgiveness, whoever it is for and whatever it concerns, must be whole and unconditional.

Not to condemn.
Not to excuse.
Just Men, honest reflection and shared humanity.
