Break Free from the Affair Review: Waste of Money or Helpful Tool?

Break Free from the Affair by Dr. Robert Huizenga: Is this book a scam or legit?

If you are the type of person who puts their fate into their own hand and takes action to overcome challenges in your life then this eBook may be what you need to defeat the affair.

Break Free from the Affair is pretty unique because not only does it claim to help you identify the motivation behind your spouse’s affair but also how to confront him/her to fix it.

Plus the author/infidelity coach gives you a scale of 1-10 for each of his 7 types of affairs to indicate what the chances are that you can save your marriage.

Brief Overview:

In “Break Free from the Affair” the author Dr. Bob Huizenga (Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist) breaks the pattern of typical infidelity, self-help eBooks by customizing his advice to your specific type of affair.

He identifies 7 types of affairs and in each of them offers insight as to why the cheating spouse decided to start an affair, their personal history for indications on why they cheated, tips how to repair the marriage per the type of affair and a unique 1-10 scale to gauge the probability that you will be able to save your marriage.

Dr. Bob Huizenga’s 7 Affair Types

  1. My Marriage Made Me Do It
  2. I Can’t Say No
  3. I Don’t Want to Say No
  4. I Fell Out of Love (and just love being in love)
  5. I Want to Get Back at Him/Her
  6. I Need to Prove My Desirability
  7. I Want to be Close to Someone (which means I can’t stand intimacy)

My Opinion as a Former Cheater (first wife) and Betrayed Spouse (second wife)

I find the customized tips thorough and complete, although I feel that no one category of affair encapsulates only traits from that affair, rather traits from multiple types.

Identify which of the 7 affairs characterizes your affair the closest. Still read all the others from the list to learn as much as you can about infidelity and how to overcome the pain and the advice that will provide you the best chance to repair you marriage.

The two sections I find perhaps as helpful as the list of 7 affairs are the final two:

  • 7 Powerful Tactics to Break Free From the Affair and Stop it NOW
  • 12 Unattractive, Ugly, Typical Tactics Most People Use to Prolong the Affair and Guarantee Their Own Misery

From experience I certainly can identify with points from each list both as a cheater and betrayed spouse.  Dr. Huizenga keeps them simple and easy to implement immediately.

What I find most helpful from Dr. Huizenga’s Break Free from the Affair is how he focuses on rebuilding your confidence and creating hope that you will survive infidelity whether by repairing your marriage or moving on alone.

Now keep reading for more details regarding the eBook that has helped me and thousands of other betrayed spouses to decide if you’d like to purchase you own copy.

Summary PROs and CONs of Break Free from the Affair by Dr. Robert Huizenga


PROS:

  • 7 Types of Affairs. Helps to identify the type of affair my cheating spouse committed.
  • Author’s attempt to address the complexities of each type of affair.
  • Quick tips to lift self-esteem and keep confidence strong.
  • What immediate actions to perform and messages to communicate to avoid pushing your spouse away and prolong the affair.
  • The “stay or go” rating system to determine the probability that your marriage is worth saving.
  • The questions he asked me to answer to determine if it made more sense for me to stay or leave.

CONS:

  • Confusing 7 Types of Affairs wording. It seemed like my wife committed more than one type of affair.
  • Lack of links in Table of Contents to jump to specific sections.
  • Wished it were a series of smaller books.
  • Wished there were more than just 7 types of affairs, it was good, but could have been more specific with subcategories of


What I like about this Book


Dr. Robert Huizenga attempts to address the complexity of affairs and relationships. People fall into affairs, some people carefully plan, some regret their bad choice, others could care less how you feel. So I like that he breaks down different reasons why people choose to commit infidelity in his book “Break Free from the Affair”.

Dr. Huizenga breaks down personality traits and matches them up with why a cheating spouse claims to cheat in his 7 Types of Affairs.

He provides specific ways to immediately feel strong which I did use myself and exact phrase to say to your spouse to portray to them you will remain strong with or without them, but that you wish to stay together if they want the same. More importantly he shows you how to both convince yourself and your cheating spouse that they decided to cheat, it was their decision, and not your fault.

He attempts to help you determine which specific type of affair your cheating spouse committed and personalizes his advice around which affair is appropriate to your relationship.

*The Unique Feature from Break Free from the Affair*

Particularly what stands out to me in Break Free from the Affair is the 1-10 rating system he creates to help you determine the chances your marriage have of surviving the affair together.

Not all marriages will survive affair and many of you are better off moving on alone and finding a new life and eventually a new partner. So thank you Dr. Huizenga for not shoving the generic, “All marriages can survive affairs.” If you read my post about serial cheater personality traits you would understand or my infidelity story.

His list of 12 tactics to negative things to avoid doing to prolong the affair provide lots of immediate affair recovery action too.

Now on to the part of the review of what I don’t like about Break Free from the Affair.


Details of What I Don’t Like about this Book


I don’t like the layout of the book. I find the names of the 7 types of affairs confusing. They often sound the same and the personality characteristics in each affair type seem to repeat themselves. I don’t like categorizing an affair type by what the cheating spouse claims was their reason- they have many reasons!

Maybe I over analyze.

Although Dr Huizenga claims and attempts to reclaim more than once that people and affairs are complex I think this book is short to cover the topic. Short can be good too. You don’t get overwhelmed as easily. His lists of quick action to take helped me from spiraling out of control emotionally.

I believe he could have created a series of smaller books.

His table of contents needs links. I want to jump from section to section. Instead I scroll up and down. I can’t remember where I read something important then keep scrolling until I do.


Testimonials

  • “My wife had #6, she needed to prove her desirability. Your book, which I now suggest to everyone in my situation, really nailed her personality type and issues related to the affair.” – Derick
  • “I reread it anytime I start feeling that things are getting out of control. It helps put things in perspective.” – Sally
  • “I just want you to know how comforting I’ve found “Break Free… “I am actually beginning to personally detach myself from this whole situation. There is no comparison between my present mental/emotional state today and just 3 weeks ago. I feel pretty confident to confront my husband now.” – Joan
  • “Thanks for giving me back my sanity and assuring me that I am not deficient, the marriage was not horrible, etc.” -Barbara

 


Summary and My Overall Score: 8


Scale 1- 10 (1 Scam, Waste of Money; 10 Legit, Worth Buying)

I do wish the 7 types of affairs were major categories instead of phrases the cheater uses to determine why they chose to have an affair. They could have been subcategories. I also still have trouble scrolling up and down and would rather jump to sections.

The book goes into more detail than I anticipated and I do like how the author customizes the advice specific to his certain types of affairs.

This is not meant for someone who wants to read it then expect something magical to happen. Break Free from the Affair is more a program than a book. It is not meant for you if you are experiencing panic attacks right now. I would suggest seeing if you have benefits that cover mental help counselors. You need to see someone in person.

Now if you want some quick tips and new way of seeing how you are not a victim and why, then you would benefit from reading this.  The real value of “Break Free from the Affair” lies in Dr. Huizenga’s suggested action tactics to feel in control of your life and entice your spouse to DESIRE you again and WANT to rebuild your marriage into a joyful and fulfilling experience again.
