Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
You're right to be cautious when you hear these words:
'I'm telling you, we're just friends.'
Good people in good marriages are having affairs. The workplace and the Internet have become fertile breeding grounds for 'friendships' that can slowly and insidiously turn into love affairs. Yet you can protect your relationship from emotional or sexual betrayal by recognizing the blue flags that mark the stages of slipping into an improper, dangerous intimacy that can threaten your marriage.

I am in my mid 20's and found out that my husband had a 4 month affair in which his lover supposedly became pregnant with his child but ended up having an abortion. I found out about the whole thing 5 months later when her husband tracked me down at work to tell me. Let me just say that I was more than shocked. I plowed through all the chapters of this book (with exception of the forgiveness section...I am just not ready to read that yet). I am an avid reader and I found this easy to read. Many of the situations apply to people that have been married for quite a while and are older but the author did cover many types of affairs, reactions, emotions, etc that would apply to anyone wounded by any type of extra-maritial relationship. My husband (the cheater) has been slower to read it but does like how the book uses stories and facts and ties them together well. It hasn't replaced therapy (couples and individual for him) but it was a good jumping off point in terms of my sanity.

Unfortunately, I have to say this book amazingly accurate, I'd compare it to my journal if ever I had written one. Sometimes its funny, sometimes its nice to know Im not the only one, and sometimes I feel as if Dr. Glass were spying on me, too close for comfort. Its definitely a book I'd recommend whether you've had relationship problems or not, its a book everyone needs to read.

I bought this book because my life partner stated repeatedly that the OP and he were "just friends." I wanted to believe him so I kept ignoring all the signs that Dr. Glass discusses. Dr. Glass was relevant and insightful. The book is 425 pages but is a read quick. Before I discovered that my life partner was having an affair and that my best girl friend's husband was having an affair, I had no idea how rampant infidelity is. "Good people in good marriages are having affairs." Its amazing how our society condones the easy thing ---an affair. I wished that I would have known about "safe friendships" before all this happened. Dr. Glass does not have time to talk about recovering and healing adequately on your own. However, Dr. Glass does have other books that would probably be helpful. Her chapter regarding questions to ask after affair will be helpful once I am able to communicate with unfaithful one.

I never thought this would be me needing a book like this. My husband is not "the type" to have an affair, but he did. It blew my world apart. This book helped explain why it happened, how it was not because we had a bad marriage, how to recover, and it validated all the feelings and thoughts I was having. This book is truly amazing. Glass really left a gift for so many people in writing this book. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED and SO HELPFUL.
