Trust is the most important thing in any relationship. So once trust has been eroded, you have no chance of making it work.
The only way for her to get rid of that resentment was to end the marriage.

00:14Trust is the most important thing in any relationship. So once trust has been eroded, you have no chance of making it work. And that's what happened in this case.
00:22Shelley was convinced that her husband was having multiple affairs, which he wouldn't admit to, but she just had that feeling that he wasn't being faithful to her.
00:32So her suspicions have given her this underlying resentment. It's really hard not to feel resentful towards someone you think is cheating on you. And unfortunately, the only way for her to get rid of that resentment was to end the marriage.
