ABSTRACT

In the last chapter we looked at how being a partner of a sex addict doesn’t determine a partner’s identity and self-worth, and in this chapter we’ll explore how being a partner doesn’t have to determine the future. There will be practical tools for identifying and achieving areas for growth and change, and suggestions for places to go for additional support and help. But all of that will be wasted unless the pain of addiction can be left behind. So this chapter will end on the touchy topic of forgiveness.
