Book Description
Leave a Cheater, Gain a Life is a no-nonsense self-help guide for anyone who has ever been cheated on. Here's advice not based on saving your relationship after infidelity—but saving your sanity. When it comes to cheating, a lot of the attention is focused on cheaters—their unmet needs or their challenges with monogamy. But Tracy Schorn (aka Chump Lady) lampoons such blameshifting and puts the focus squarely on the-cheated-upon (chumps) and their needs. Combining solid advice that champions self-respect, along with hilarious cartoons satirizing the pomposity of cheaters, Leave a Cheater, Gain a Life offers a fresh voice for chumps who want (and need) a new message about infidelity. This book will offer advice on Stupid sh*t cheaters say and how to respond, Rookie mistakes of the recently chumped and how to disarm your fears, Why chumps take the blame and how to protect yourself, and more. Full of snark, sass, and real wisdom about how to bounce back after the gut blow of betrayal, Schorn is the friend who guides you through this nightmare and gives you hope for a better life ahead.

Book Description
Have you been traumatized by infidelity? The phrase "broken heart" belies the real trauma behind the all-too-common occurrence of infidelity. Psychologist Dennis Ortman likens the psychological aftermath of sexual betrayal to post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in its origin and symptoms, including anxiety, irritability, rage, emotional numbing, and flashbacks. Using PTSD treatment as a model, Dr. Ortman will show you, step by step, how to: • work through conflicting emotions • Understand yourself and your partner • Make important life decisions Dr. Ortman sees recovery as a spiritual journey and draws on the wisdom of diverse faiths, from Christianity to Buddhism. He also offers exercises to deepen recovery, such as guided meditations and journaling, and explores heart-wrenchingly familiar case studies of couples struggling with monogamy. By the end of this book, you will have completed the six stages of healing and emerged with a whole heart, a full spirit, and the freedom to love again.

Book Description
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The chump is the dullard whose inadequacies drove the cheater into another’s arms. The chump is the co-conspirator who Must Have Known and had some tacit arrangement with the cheater. The chump is the failure who wasn’t meeting the cheater’s needs. #2 You don’t deserve to be cheated on. It’s not your fault that your partner is unhappy. The choices your cheater makes are 100 percent their own. #3 Chump blame is the act of trivializing the pain and suffering that comes from being cheated on. It faults trusting and believing in the commitments made to you, and it makes you feel foolish for having loved someone so unrequitedly. #4 The majority of infidelity resources promote the idea that you can save your marriage alone. They ignore the fact that many therapists still don’t understand how personality disorders affect relationships.

Based on a study of over 400 women worldwide, Runaway Husbands: The Abandoned Wife's Guide to Recovery and Renewal, is the first book to explore and offer healing strategies to women whose lives have been turned upside down by Wife Abandonment Syndrome. This Revised and Updated edition expands on the groundbreaking first edition that led to the development of an amazing global community of women working together to recover from Wife Abandonment Syndrome - when a husband leaves out-of-the-blue from what his wife believed to be a happy, secure marriage. Following his sudden departure, he typically replaces the caring he'd previously shown her with blame and anger, leaving his bewildered wife totally devastated. The Revised and Updated edition includes new chapters that discuss the husband's possible Covert Narcissism, the effect of this kind of divorce on the father/adult child relationship and the challenges of co-parenting with an ex following abandonment. Written by family therapist Vikki Stark, MSW, who herself had a runaway husband, the book helps women understand in full what could motivate a loving husband to morph overnight into an uncaring stranger and provides them with the tools they need to move forward and rebuild their lives.

Book Description
Smile! It's not just the end of your marriage, it's the beginning of your second chance! Missy Benson has a two and a half carat diamond engagement ring with color grade H, VS2 clarity and a value of $36,000. It's absolutely gorgeous, practically flawless, and let's be honest, really big! But what the successful Chicago realtor doesn't have anymore is a husband. After 12 years of marriage, her husband, Paul, a handsome, wealthy attorney has devastated her by breaking up their marriage for Priscilla Sommerfeld, a young, personal trainer, who according to Missy's sassy assistant, J.J., looks more like a Las Vegas stripper than a fitness expert. Not sure what to do with her ring, and with no financial issues to worry about, Missy decides to put it up for sale on Craigslist. The price: 99 cents! The catch: She gets to pick the buyer. In essence, she's looking for the perfect guy, but not for herself. Her hope is to regain faith that good men do exist, and that marriages can last forever. Now referring to herself as "the divorced girl," Missy interviews dozens of young men who are vying for the huge ring. It's a contest that includes outrageous characters, hilarious and sentimental stories, and two finalists, both of whom Missy adores and who she must choose between. Then there's Parker Missoni, the sexiest contestant by far, who drives her crazy with his brutal honesty, and at the same time stops her heart with his deep brown eyes. Divorced Girl Smiling is the story of a woman's journey to do whatever it takes to heal herself from divorce. It's about acceptance, reflection, taking accountability for mistakes, and appreciating all of life's wonderful gifts. In other words, if you have the guts to put the past behind, admit your mistakes, embrace your future, and give love another chance, you will surely be a divorced girl smiling.

Book Description
Cheated on? Abused? Abandoned? Divorced? Overwhelmed by religious rules and condemnation about how you are to handle these relationship traumas? This book is for you.Written by a Yale-educated, Board Certified Chaplain (BCC) who survived his first wife's adultery, a divorce, and an ecclesiastical trial to keep his ministerial credentials, Divorce Minister is here to help you navigate the trouble waters of infidelity discovery and keep your faith.Testimonials: "The Christian world is theologically bankrupt in its teachings on divorce, infidelity, abandonment, and abuse. 'Don't divorce, ever, for any reason, ' false teachers insist, and so they ensnare the abused and condemn survivors who had the courage to leave their abusers. Divorce Minister adeptly dismantles Christian false teachings on divorce with compassionate, biblical truth. A much-needed voice." - Bridget Jack Jeffries, Weighted Glory (www.weighted-glory.com/)"Having led divorce recovery groups in churches for many years I appreciate the unique insight and potential for healing DM brings to the victims of adultery. He deftly dissects 'The Shared Responsibility Lie' to provide a path towards healing for faithful spouses. DM's work has helped me personally and made me more effective as a divorce recovery leader. Highly recommended for pastors, lay leaders and men and women struggling with the conflicting messages they receive about adultery." -Loren Haas, lay leader at CrossWalk Community Church, Napa, CA"Divorce Minister has a unique voice in the infidelity discourse - he's the rare evangelical Christian who actually believes cheating is the sin, not divorce. If you're looking for a theological perspective to leave an abusive relationship, if you seek judgement of wrong-doing, and comfort from victim-blaming, Divorce Minister is your man. This is important work. God bless David Derksen for taking it on." -Tracy Schorn (aka Chump Lady) blogger at chumplady.com and author of Leave a Cheater, Gain a Life: The Chump Lady's Survival Guide
