Overview

The surprising findings from a groundbreaking study on cheating husbands

It's not all about sex, he's not just a pig, she's not prettier than you, and he really does feel terrible about what he's done. So why do men do it? In The Truth about Cheating, M. Gary Neuman shares the findings of his extensive research with unfaithful husbands that turn the conventional wisdom about extramarital affairs on its head. He reveals the emotional roots of male infidelity, explains how men experience and express their emotions differently from women, and lays out a simple series of actions you can take to ensure that your husband never strays. These steps help you build a deeper and more intimate relationship and a stronger, happier marriage that is more supportive and rewarding for both of you. Don't sit there wondering if your husband will ever cheat on you. Read The Truth about Cheating and make sure he won't.

Praise for Emotional Infidelity

"An important addition to the marriage manual genre, complete with an unusually helpful section on in-law relationships. . . . Marriage manuals are always in demand in bookstores and hot topics for talk shows. This one offers a unique (and possibly controversial) viewpoint as well as an experienced and engaging author."
Publishers Weekly

Praise for Helping Your Kids Cope with Divorce the Sandcastles Way

"Thorough. . . . Highly recommended for all parenting shelves."
Library Journal

Editorial Reviews

Publishers Weekly

Neuman (Emotional Infidelity) attempts to arm wives with the tools to prevent their husbands from cheating by drawing upon questionnaires and interviews with 100 men who reported sexual affairs. According to the author's research, sexual dissatisfaction within their marriages rated fourth and emotional dissatisfaction first as reasons given for straying. Neuman notes that only "12% of cheating men said that the mistress was more physically attractive than their wives," thereby reinforcing findings that men were missing an emotional connection in their marriages (whether this is intended to serve as comfort to their wives is unclear). Neuman introduces "The Innervoice Recognition Formula" and "Quick Action Program," challenging women to revise assumptions about marriage, make immediate behavioral changes and forge new bonds with their husbands, thereby deterring future dalliances. While some wives might find this book helpful, it is perhaps more likely that readers will wish that the author had devoted more time to holding the cheating husband responsible for his actions rather than putting the onus on wives to take preventive-and dubiously effective-measures.

    This is the real deal

    I personally experienced my husband getting into a relationship with a woman he worked very closely with. She is 12 years younger than I am and worshiped the ground he walked on. She would stand very close to him and flirted with him constantly. she followed him everywhere. He is a very generous man and I never dreamed he would ever cheat on me. He is a good man and is known for his integrity, kindness and generosity. He is the ceo of the company and this young woman was able to get many things from him. she is quite clever and had my husband not knowing what he was doing. I told him he could leave but he didn't want to. This happened a year ago and everything the author says was happening but I never thought twice. Now that is all I think about and they still work together. he still cares a great deal for her. he comes home early now and calls me everyday but I don't think I will ever get over this. Even if I had read this book before this I don't think I would have heeded the warning. When you trust someone 100% no one can convince you otherwise. Its too bad there are so many amoral opportunistic types out there.

    The Truth About Cheating

    Well, even though I haven't read this yet. I saw Gary Neuman on Oprah.
    What he says makes sense but, doesn't the same thing apply to men. The truth about women cheating is--women cheat if there is no physical relationship or when they feel like he is not interested in anything she says. Why can't the title be--Why Spouses Cheat!!

    partners

    I like what Anonymous wrote. It takes two. The one thing is,there may be a emotional block in one partner that keeps them from giving their partner their total attentin.If possibel they both can confide openly to their partner for them to have patience with them & work it out,this would be very helpful.I know of such person who is having difficulty with their partner,yet this partner isnt LISTENING to the other as he/she is asking for help of understanding. Well say the one partner had been molested & is asking for help with some sort of sexual part as they are unable to perform. Their partner should help & understand that it bothers their partner even though it IS NOT this partners fault for what took place. So why cant this partner help theirs.??They need understanding &
    patience. Yet I know this couple & one partner is mad about NOT getting what they want & goes around telling all of their love life ,this is their way of getting back,instead of helping,so this just makes it worse,then the partner want to know why their partner has attitude towards them.To me this is not right.Just understand & have patience.Just because you r not able to do one little sexual thing,look at what u can do.The man is like a little boy,wont listen but needs ur ful attention.He feels that he knows what to do & how it should be.His partner needs same.Yet he doesnt take time to listen to what she says.

    To Anonymous and mmmmmmmmmm

    To be quite frank, both people must take time to build each other up. It's never one sided. The person that should be last is yourself but only in terms of priority. Placing yourself last does not mean you are not of value; it means you value your mate even higher. As much as you take care of yourself and take pride in yourself, if you can do the same for your mate and more, then how much more likely will your mate respond to you with total fidelity? He will not need to look elsewhere. As much as another person may be attractive to me, I only need to think for a split second how great I have it with my mate and need only show it; she has been positively responsive every time.

    Why blame the woman?

    I read this book. I worked cared for our children waited on my husband hand and foot. Was there for him in every way. What was my thank you he cheated on me with a younger woman after we were married for three months. His cheating ways did not stop there. After I forgave him and he promised me it would not happen again it has many times over again. Was this my fault not at all. the blame for aman cheating on his significant other lays at his feet. He figures the grass is greener on the other side and decides to take the risk of cheating. What cheating men do not realize is the emotional damage the invoke not only on their spouse but also on their children. So my advice don't make a vow and or comittment to someone unless you are really going to honor them. Best advice: Keep your pants zipped up until you get home to your significant other.

    It's always the woman's fault ???? :(

    I agree with Anonymous. Man up! Only a man would write a book which blames a man's weakness on his wife. It is never okay to cheat on your spouse...man or woman. I personally know what it is like to have your husband cheat on you. I did nothing to cause him to do this. I have always supported and encouraged him and LOVED him. Even he admits that none of it was my fault, but was his fault and extremely bad judgment and the forwardness of a woman who doesn't honor the code of her sister women.

    The Truth is finally out!

    I am well aquainted with the story of a woman whose husband cheated on her because of one single emasculating comment, which apparently broke the poor weary camel's back.

    He got home from work one not-so-nice day, only for his wife to poke a long purchases-to-be-made list in his face, demanding money. He pushed the litany aside, stating that it wasn't the right time to spend that extensively.

    Moments later, he motioned to his wife while heading for the bedroom.
    "Sweetheart, let's have a quick session of 'tossing' and 'tumbling'."

    Then she sarcastically sneered:
    "Hmm...Bedroom? That seems to be the only place you are of any use these days!"

    He stopped unbuttoning his shirt, reached for his keys,and left the house in search of the cheapest prostitute in town, with whom he quenched the fire in his loins while relieving himself of the day's stress.

    Some comments can really feel more painful than castration.

    Stop the blaming

    From what i read about the reviews of the books by other websites, it is a book to help people understand why men that cheat do what they do. The belief out there is that the woman is always the victim and the man, always the victimizer. Men have needs too and they aren't just physical and sexually oriented. Not all men are like the men portrayed in pop culture which is really far from the truth. That men just want to have sex with the next young thing is a stereotype of all men. Men that think about or have cheated are human too and whether they admit it or not, have emotional, mental, spiritual needs that have to be met just like women do. To simply tell a man to "Be A Man" does nothing but put guilt on the man and the problem is not addressed. Both Men and Women cheat, sometimes with someone else that is married too. Do people tell the women to "Woman up!". Solutions to the underlying reasons must be addressed for both sexes, not oversimplified as "Be a Man!" Guilt does not work in the long run, understanding and breaking down concrete gender roles and unhealthy personas will help us all heal.

    Excellent, easy to understand

    I've read several marriage self-help type books, and they all have basically the same underlying points, but this one really makes those points easy to understand and incorporate in real life. Highly recommend!!

    other better books are available

    Abusive marriages are common and the men are the cheaters and and blame the women to justify their cheating.This book will not work in an abusive marriage no matter what the woman does.I feel there are other better writers that are not out to create drama in marriages for their own self financial gain to sell a book by stressing on gp real time trackers and lie detector tests but are out there to help salvage marriages and educate couples like these books 1-'his needs her needs ' building an affair proof marriage by Willard F Harlley Jr. 2-'for women only' and for ' men only' by Shaunti Feldham ISBN 1-59052-317-2 3'love and respect' by Dr.Emerson EGGRICHS ISBN 1-59145-197-6 4-'violence Among us ' for families in crisis by Brenda BRANSON & Paula J-Silva & Tim Clinton 2-
