Hi Allen,
This is a tough one. I went through that for quite a long time. It got so bad that I used to put a rubber band around my wrist and snap it when an image would occur so that it would stop.
(it didn't work). As you work on your relationship together and your marriage improves, the images will fade and they will be replaced with the new ones of your good relationship. I know that it sounds trite, but that is what happens if you both do the work to improve your marriage. A professional marital therapist who specializes in infidelity also will help. You can find these specialists on a website called www.dearpeggy.com She has lists of these therapists all over the country.
Good luck Allen. I know this is a very difficult time for you, but you both can turn this into a marriage rebuilding that will last into the future.
Good luck,
Sophia
