Download or read book Questions To Ask A Cheater written by Rebekah Clarke and published by Rebekah Clarke Books. This book was released on 2021-03-24 with total page 47 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Talking to your partner after they've cheated is undeniably one of the toughest conversations you'll ever have with them. You'll be bubbling over with a ton of emotions - anger, upset and frustration. The cheating partner will also have their own emotions to deal with - dread, uncertainty and the shame of their actions. The aftermath of cheating always leads to "The Conversation", where the hurt party asks their partner all of the questions about the affair they have bottled up. The cheater will be asked to answer difficult questions and confess some hurtful things to their partner, which is easier said than done. Does this situation sound similar to the one you've found yourself in? Although you may find yourself simmering with an abundance of questions for your partner, they don't always come out the way you want or need them to; your anger and hurt take over and what should be an open communication turns into an argument. I was in the same situation not too long ago, and my rage and hurt would always get in the way of an open and honest discussion with my partner about his infidelity. This stopped me from being able to get the closure I needed so badly. Couple this with my emotions clouding my ability to know what questions to ask and how to ask them, I was in a cycle of heartache and confusion. Through trial and error, I had the breakthrough with my partner and compiled my findings in this book. I've included four parts: Part One: Questions To Ask Your Partner To Understand Their Behaviour Part Two: Questions To Ask To Rebuild Trust With Your Partner Part Three: Questions To Ask A Cheating Partner Or Ex To Gain Closure Part Four: A Chapter For The Cheater: Understand Your Behaviour, Comprehend The Damage It's Caused & Nurture Forgiveness In Your Relationship This book is for you if you've been cheated on and need answers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “This book walks each of us through the reality checks we need in order to have the marriage we want!” —Shaunti Feldhahn, social researcher and best-selling author of For Women Only In today’s workplace, women are often rewarded for having type A personalities: driven, demanding, ambitious, and strong. Yet when it comes to their marriages, those same traits can backfire. After all, no one goes into marriage hoping for a promotion. What is a wife to do? April Cassidy knows this struggle firsthand. She thought she was a great Christian wife and begged God to make her passive husband into a more loving, involved, godly leader. Instead, God opened her eyes to changes that she needed to make, such as laying down her desire for control and offering genuine, unconditional respect—not just love—to her husband. Cassidy’s conclusions may be as startling to readers as they were to her, but The Peaceful Wife shares how she and many others have learned to reorient their lives to biblical commands—resulting in healthier, happier marriages. In the end, you’ll find The Peaceful Wife a powerful path to God’s design for women to live in full submission to Christ as Lord.
