Cheated: Diary of Affairs

Description

That woman or man, who is trying to avoid an affair, has had an affair, going through an affair, or recovering from an affair. A single woman, married woman, or single man. Basically, anyone who can see themselves in a committed relationship at one point or another. I used to dig up wells looking for books that affirmed my feelings. I found ones that told me the right thing to do, I found others that gave me tips, but I never read anything that conveyed exactly how I felt, the ugly, evil, quitting feelings. I journaled through one of the most grievous moments of my life. You will see the journal entries are raw and has errors. I didn't omit or withheld because of that. What I wrote is what I needed and hopefully this will prove true for someone else. Although they were not completely angelic, I realized it's normal, I'm still sane, and God is still God.
