Life After Betrayal: A Practical Guide

Published by Loving Healing Press in January, 2007
This is my fourth book. It identifies the different types of betrayal and explores the feelings that you experience if you have been betrayed by a partner.
This book is written for those readers who have suffered the hurt, humiliation and embarrassment of being betrayed by their partner having an affair.
A relationship is based on trust. When a betrayal occurs trust is destroyed. Betrayal hits the very core of your being, leaving you empty, bewildered, ashamed, and unable to equate or comprehend the situation you have found yourself in.
When you discover that betrayal has occurred, it rocks your soul and you are left to question every aspect of who and what you are.
Here are some of the thoughts and feelings during this time:
• I am no longer safe and secure in my relationship
• I am no longer part of a couple
• I am no longer able to trust the person I love
• I no longer trust myself!
The questions you ask are:
• ‘Why didn’t I see it coming?’
• ‘Why didn’t my alarm bells ring?’
• ‘Why am I so trusting of my partner?’
• ‘What have I done to deserve this to happen?’
• ‘What can I do about it?’
Your mind spins out of control and you become temporarily emotionally disabled.
In writing this book, I will guide you through the devastating emotions that you encounter by the betrayal of a spouse/partner. It is not an easy ride, but a necessary one if you have both decided to give your relationship a ‘second chance.’ You will encounter the hard facts of betrayal through each step on the path to intimate, emotional recovery.
