The Betrayal Bind by Michelle Mays
The Betrayal Bind introduces new language, concepts, and imagery to explore the crucial relational dilemma that betrayed partners face when their significant other is unsafe to connect to, yet connection is the key to healing. Betrayed partners, whether dealing with typical infidelity or sexual addiction, need immediate support to navigate the new terrain of their relationship. They need a clear articulation of betrayal trauma, a thorough education about their normal attachment-based reactions, and a proven path to healing. Most of all, they need the answer to this pivotal question: what happens when your partner, your lover, your primary person cheats on you and, in an instant, becomes a source of danger, pain, and threat? The Betrayal Bind offers a new, game-changing exploration into an age-old problem and connects the dots from research to the lived experience of betrayed partners.
