Rediscovering Your Value as a Woman After Cheating

[@bosstalksports4916]

This is BS! I’m disappointed. I took the harboring hope course and to some degree it has given me hope in my marriage. And in my healing. But to sit up here and make it as if men are the cause of why women step out of their marriage and break their vows is disgusting! Take ownership ladies. No man made or forced you to do what you did. You made those decisions based on your own choice and what you made up in your head. If a man cheats there won’t be no bs apology video by an unfaithful woman on behalf of all women. And giving men a pass on being “fooled” by the promiscuous woman for making his terrible choice to cheat on his spouse. This is cheap and pandering to women and women only. And is making me question if AR is genuine in their approach especially towards men in their healing. This video is crap! You leave all of us broken betrayed men left out to dry. I’m not perfect. And I try everyday to guard my eyes and my heart from temptation so I don’t hurt my wife the way she did me. And if I did hurt her that would be solely my fault! I can count on one hand how many videos yall have that’s truly aimed towards betrayed men. This truly has left a bad taste in my mouth. Do better.

@@heidiainsworth4348 are you a woman or a man? If you are a woman you couldn’t understand because majority of their content is catered to you all. Us betrayer men are left out. You would never understand

@@heidiainsworth4348 and also Rick doesn’t speak for all men so he can’t apologize on behalf of his gender. Those women he feels he used and manipulated made a choice also. And if those women were married or were friends to his wife then they betrayed someone. And they didn’t get “fooled” they made a conscious decision to have an affair. That’s the point I’m getting at. For instance my wife took the bait from a guy who was fishing to see how far he could go with her. Yes he is at fault for being a snake but she is too for choosing to step out on her marriage! When Rick makes it seem as if it’s the big bad man’s fault that takes away accountability from the married unfaithful woman.

@@heidiainsworth4348you aren’t a man. So you have no clue how a betrayed man feels.

I understand your point. It's frustrating when it seems like the unfaithful spouse's responsibility gets minimized. And you're absolutely right, it always takes two to tango. No matter the circumstances, the person who chooses to step outside their marriage is making a conscious decision to do so. They are responsible for their actions. It's also important to remember that infidelity can be a symptom of a deeper issue. That doesn't excuse the affair, but it does mean that the work goes deeper than the acting out behaviors, and so does the trauma of betrayal. It's important to remember that infidelity can happen to anyone, regardless of gender. I apologize for not addressing some specific aspects of infidelity, we will do better. The resources at AffairRecovery.com are designed to help both betrayed and unfaithful spouses. We understand that infidelity is a complex issue with many different facets, and we offer support for everyone involved.

I needed to hear this today. Thank you!

[@limitlesky]

were you the cheater in the relationship? Because this video just makes sure to make women who cheated feel like they are victims. Cheaters, regardless of gender are not the victim. This channel is biased. Such a shame.

Thank you Rick and Laurie! The grace and dignity that you extend to EVERYONE in the program is invaluable. I believe it is the #1 reason AR is so successful. Love and appreciate you both so much ❤

So will you all be making a video dedicated towards betrayed males or are we invisible. More videos about how the betrayed man feels and how we can overcome

The way we see people… as a betrayed, I stopped believing in fairytales and princes. Humans with flaws is what’s out there (including betrayed). I love to hear cheaters to say they are sorry for what they did to their “props”, but what about the heart and psyche of the fool you had waiting for you at home? The cheater has a broken person at home. Someone that is struggling to see their spouse as something special again. That day might never come. Having a cheater as a spouse is like eating someone else’s regurgitated food in a plate that should be only for you. How to stop feeling shame on “showing you off”? Please make a special for people that want to move on solo. I am disgusted still.
