Finally! An Evidence-based Approach to Cheating and its Aftermath.

This book is a must-read for anyone who is abused by a cheater. The authors discuss every facet of these traumatic experiences from the bodies initial disgust at discovering the betrayal through the gaslighting and victim-blaming that cheaters routinely embrace in an effort to justify their abhorrent choices. Unlike many cheating apologists, this book refuses to allow cheating to be characterized passively as “a mistake” or something that “just happened” but rather, the authors powerfully persist in exposing cheating for what it truly is—a series of intentional acts of fraud and deception that are chosen by the cheater because he feels entitled to whatever he wants regardless of the harm it causes his partner or his children. Understanding the choice to abuse a partner in this devastating and intimate manner is critical to understanding who the cheater really is. Understanding this is in turn critical to the survivor’s ability to truthfully evaluate the risks that she would be taking if she chose to stay with an abusive and dishonest partner.

Very anti-forgiveness

Be aware that this book has a negative view of forgiveness toward an unfaithful partner and doesn't really distinguish between people who continue the cheating behavior and those who make amends. It also erroneously combines forgiveness and reconciliation which are two different things. It views forgiveness as detrimental to the betrayed partner and is very negative in terms of couples staying together. Not pro-marriage. Not the book for you if you're looking to heal together.
