Geting Past the Affair August 29, 2010 Denise A. Davis (Lakeland, FL) a must read for anyone who is dealing with the hurt and pain associated with an affair.
Poor advice for the betrayed! Let the cheater off the hook! May 15, 2010 K. Johnson 9 out of 12 found this review helpful
Save your marriage and your money! Our counselor gave us this book to read after disclosure of my husband's 3 year affair with a married girl with a baby who is 20 years younger than us. This book set our recovery back....WAY back. It gave my husband excuses to not look at his own behavior but rather pick apart our 19 year marriage and how our "marriage" became vunerable, instead of how HE became vunerable, or screwed up in the head.(Can we say typical mid-life crisis?) I quote from a section titled "A Special Message to the Participating Partner" (ie. the cheater), page 236. "Was the Affair My Fault?" If we haven't made this clear yet, the answer is an unqualified no." Uh, hello??? HE is the one who dropped his pants!!! This book increased my anger and made it harder to get started on the road to healing. If you are trying to save your marriage after adulery, DO NOT BUY, READ, or REFERENCE this book!!!
A MUCH better book is "Not Just Friends: Rebuilding Trust and Recovering Your Sanity After Infidelity" by Shirley Glass. I wish we had read this one first, an NEVER read "Getting Past the Affair".
pretty good March 31, 2010 Jennifer Schmitt (FL) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I did find this book helpful. However if you are ever a victim of an affair. No book is going to cure it. It is full of information that can help you when you need to feel understand about your own feelings. As far as coping and healing goes. I will never forget it. It is your partners responsibility to earn back the trust. Unless your partner is giving all they can to fix what THEY destroyed. This book is only for you and you alone. Use it for yourself and move on!!!

Best Book to date May 21, 2009 Michael T. Clifford (Everett WA) 19 out of 20 found this review helpful
I am a marriage and family therapist who only works with couples. Many of these couples come with either a current or past affair as a problem. Until this book came out, I recommended Not Just Friends, by Shirley Glass. While that is an excellent book, this book is even better. The chapters are crystal clear and specific. Each person is assigned a task in the healing. General principles are stated as frameworks so that each person has a mindset to go by. I will be recommending this book to all couples who come with this problem.
