Customer Reviews

EXCELLENT

This book showed me that staying with a chronic infidel is a VERY BAD decision. All men are not pigs. But it is better to lose a lover than love a loser. Good luck. Anyone reading these reviews must have gone through something to bring them to this book. Take care!

Excellent! aided with clarification of a difficult situation

I was "the other woman." By profiling "the wife" to a T in this book, I was enlightened to the fact that I'd never win. My "win" is that I ended a deceitful and destructive relationship, and got out with whatever grace and dignity I had left.Debbie Then does a fantastic job of "telling it like it is" by outlining in black and white clarity just exactly how to know what the score is. And, she confirms what I already believed, but now embrace : listen to your instinct; trust your gut.A should be "required reading" for all women, married or otherwise.

Excellent insights into the impact of infidelity.

I have read just about every book on the subject of infidelity and I think that Deborah Then's book adds a new dimension of insight into the pain, humiliation, and outside pressure that women who have been betrayed must endure. As a woman who stayed for many years in a marriage where my husband strayed before deciding that I had to leave, I can relate with great empathy.
