Comment on Intimacy After Infidelity: How to Rebuild & Affair-proof Your Marriage by Mike Tan Cheng Tong

Among the several books I have been reading on the same theme, this book stands out for me because of the way it recommends how one can go about evaluating if the relationship in peril has a high/low chance of succeeding in the long term. I especially find the concept of “Needs Love” vs “Being Loved” useful, and also the “Three Deal-Breakers” as a helpful way of gauging one’s prospect in salvaging the relationship. These are all covered in the initial few chapters of the book.

The remaining chapters are helpful for getting in terms with one’s own emotional psyche, the stages of how and why things happen, and how best to move forward. Many other books cover these areas in various depths, with various emphasis, and using various approaches that are actually all rather similar with respect to the processes of bringing the reader’s emotional and psychological state into perspective, and to helping the reader strive towards achieving the same end result- i.e. a more resilient and fulfilling relationship.

It’s an amazing book. It’s as if the authors were standing inside of me when I found about my wife’s infidelity. Dealing with the hurt, the feeling of betrayal the anger, the shock; they were with me and then they took me into understanding my emotions and evaluating my options. Should I stay should I go. Should we try to repair this, can it be repaired? How do I overcome the hurt and anger? It was all there in the book. We decided to make a go of it our relationship is stronger more trusting and loving than it ever was. I never would have believed it. Get this book!

When you file for a divorce, you are filing for the dissolution of the marriage, meaning you are requesting to legally dissolve the marriage. Divorce is just the simplified layman’s term of it all.

It means that their marriage will be terminated legally. Their marriage is no longer honored by law because they no longer want to honor their commitment to each other, i.e. divorce.

Comment on The Marriage Journey: Preparations and Provisions for Life Together by Erica D. Rourke

We had to purchase this book as part of our church’s pre-marital counseling program. It is truly a painful read. It states the incredibly obvious (“If you are involved in an affair, stop immediately”). It feels like the people who wrote the book are christian know-it-alls with no real experience outside their own relationships. If you’re honestly looking for help with your marriage, this book doesn’t offer any new information.
