Are you a mistress? What are the reasons for extramarital affairs? Should you stay in the relationship? How do you survive if you leave? What is your lover's viewpoint? What about his wife, family and friends? How do you evaluate your options? What is your legal and financial position? A Guide to Surviving Life as a Mistress answers these questions and more, in a clear and sympathetic way. It is required reading for any woman who is in this situation - whether by design or accident - helping her to understand and evaluate her relationship and how it affects her life today and in the future. Many books have been written about infidelity but when mistresses are mentioned they are, at best, pitied, and, at worst, condemned. Contrary to popular opinion, long-standing affairs are seldom about sex alone and the complexity of such relationships is understood better from the inside than the outside. This book is written by mistresses for mistresses and explores the nature of the extramarital affair from the standpoint of the affair itself, without making any moral judgements. sexual favours for reward but concentrates on those who seem prepared to live their life in the shadows because of their love for a married man. To be such a mistress, and to survive the affair and the aftermath, she must be honest about her situation and that of her lover. This book takes a realistic, and often uncomfortable, look at the genuine problems such women face with genuine understanding and will give everyone who reads it a new perspective of these 'secret' women.

The remarkable true document that is The Mistress Contract opens with a piece of paper that was signed in 1981 by a woman and her wealthy lover. The contract establishes an exchange that she thinks fair: If he will provide an adequate and separate home for her and cover her expenses, she will provide him with "mistress services": "All sexual acts as requested, with suspension of historical, emotional, psychological disclaimers." For the duration of the agreement, she will become his sexual property. Then -- on a small recorder that fit in her purse -- this extraordinary and unconventional couple began to tape their conversations about their relationship, conversations that took place while travelling, over dinner at home and in restaurants, on the phone, even in bed. This book is based on those tapes. It is a candid record of what they had to say to each other privately about the arrangement and its power relations, their physical relationship and the sexual forces that shaped it. As private and intimate as it is, though, the book also turns an unblinking light on a period of intense upheaval between men and women. Looking back now, thirty years later, this extraordinary couple -- who are still together -- are willing to reveal their most private moments to our scrutiny. What they capture in The Mistress Contract is an unapologetic revelation and a bold provocation.

Leave a Cheater, Gain a Life is a no-nonsense self-help guide for anyone who has ever been cheated on. Here's advice not based on saving your relationship after infidelity -- but saving your sanity. When it comes to cheating, a lot of the attention is focused on cheaters -- their unmet needs or their challenges with monogamy. But Tracy Schorn (aka Chump Lady) lampoons such blameshifting and puts the focus squarely on the-cheated-upon (chumps) and their needs. Combining solid advice that champions self-respect, along with hilarious cartoons satirizing the pomposity of cheaters, Leave a Cheater, Gain a Life offers a fresh voice for chumps who want (and need) a new message about infidelity. This book will offer advice on Stupid sh*t cheaters say and how to respond, Rookie mistakes of the recently chumped and how to disarm your fears, Why chumps take the blame and how to protect yourself, and more. Full of snark, sass, and real wisdom about how to bounce back after the gut blow of betrayal, Schorn is the friend who guides you through this nightmare and gives you hope for a better life ahead.
