After the Affair is the first book that explains to partners how they can help themselves through the shattering crisis of an infidelity. Drawing on more than three decades as a clinical psychologist, Dr. Spring addresses such crucial questions as: After an affair is revealed, is it normal to feel so hopeless and alone? How is trust restored? Does reconciliation make sense? How do we rekindle sexual intimacy? Is forgiveness possible?
So the unthinkable has happened; your partner gave their heart or their body or possibly both to another person. Your heart is broken. Your marriage is damaged. But what if you don't want to leave?
Most of the popular advice out there focuses on healing your heart and moving on, but this book focuses on ways you can rebuild your relationship once the unthinkable has happened. It offers tools such as recommitment ceremonies you can have between the two of you, as well as heart-healing thoughts, and ways to put the past into the past so you can move on.
This book isn't for everyone, and it does counsel in several places that if you cannot put things back together, you shouldn't force yourself to do so. It focuses on taking responsibility for your own part in the affair, which can be a bitter pill to try to swallow, but if you and your partner are committed to your relationship and to moving on together, this book can be an invaluable resource.
I love this book. It gives some really great advice to help you get over the betrayal and heartbreak of an affair. Just when you feel your heart may never mend, this book gives some hope that you CAN survive, pick up the pieces, and put your marriage back together again.
