Recovering from the Affair

Your Guide to Saving Your Marriage After Emotional or Physical Infidelity

By: Lee H. Baucom PhD

Narrated by: Lee H. Baucom PhD

Infidelity does not have to be the end of your marriage. Your marriage can recover and thrive after an affair. But only when you get to the roots of the problem, solve the issues, rebuild trust, and learn to move forward.

Unfortunately, many marriages end needlessly after infidelity. Often, this is a result of not knowing there is another option. This is complicated by not having access to tools and understanding that can heal a marriage. In fact, those tools can help a marriage move toward greater health than was there before the affair.

Dr. Lee Baucom provides a roadmap for dealing with physical or emotional infidelity. His book can provide guidance on how to confront an affair, how to understand the reasons behind the affair, and how to move forward through a healing process. His approach gives resources to both the person who had the affair and the spouse.

Additionally, Dr. Baucom provides a special Question and Answer bonus to listeners that covers common questions from other readers.

Your marriage can survive an affair. In fact, it can be stronger than before the infidelity. You just need the tools and guidance to get there. Find those tools in this book.

covering both sides of the affair

I chose the audible version of this book. It was an excellent experience. It was hard at times but comforting to hear both sides of the affair. I will give this to my spouse to listen to as well.

Clear steps to take to save the marriage

This book was the first step to healing after the affair. The guidance to understanding and the steps to take laid out helped me immensely. I could thank the author of this book enough. I whole heartedly recommend this book to anyone who has experienced infidelity, for both parties.

Please read if you’re in a struggling relationship

I think there is a lot of good advice in this book and hits the mark on what to do to survive an affair. I’m still in the early stages of dealing with the aftermath, but I am optimistic. I really wish I read this before the affair occurred because it is spot on for why it happened and maybe it could have been avoided if we only understood what was going on. Connection, boundaries, and opportunity are the drivers and at any point focusing on them would have prevented a lot of heartache. If you’re looking at these books there is still a chance to save your relationship so take a chance.

Really Helped! Read it!

Just read it. It will help. Do it, do it now. You need help in this crazy time. This is a great start.

Great book straight to the point

Good book to the point! Much good insight and advice for struggling couples. I’m going to listen to it again!

Understanding an Affair

Everything about this book was wonderful. I lost my husband, but he betrayed me, and I only found out two weeks before he died that he was in a 15 year affair, which was a little bit less than half of our married life I thought I was going to die when I found out as he was on his deathbed so I didn’t find out a lot until afterwards. The pain is unbearable. This book helped me understand so much about what my husband was going through and about our relationship and things we could’ve done better. I wanted to read this book so I could separate the affair from his death from the betrayal, so I could mourn him properly without the betrayal getting in the way. I just read it today, but I already feel so much better. I understand so much more. also, if I ever do have another relationship reading the entire book, helped me know what to do if that should ever happen. I recommend this book to anyone that has gone through betrayal, Dr.Baucom is very direct and connected to each and every word he said Thank you so much Dr Baucom.

The practicality

Easy to listen to with practical advise not just for marriages with infidelity problems but can be applied to other marital problems too
