Dealing with an affair
Often times people want to know what’s the difference between an affair in a relationship in which the affair represents a breakdown in the relationship and it can be something that a couple can learn from, from somebody who say, is a sexual addict who has multiple relationships in which there is a different treatment process.
Certainly when there’s an addiction, you need addiction approaches and other approaches to manage that long term. There are situations in which for couples, in which the affair is related to a loss of intimacy, and so forth in a relationship. And it’s more relational init’s causative nature. Here is the problem though, even in those situations, there is a similarity between he partners of that group and partners of sex addicts. Trust is always a casualty in that relationship. Even if it was a one time affair.
Now, couples can start over. They can begin a new journey. They can learn from it. They can get more intimate. But the wound, the injury to the partner and to the relationship doesn’t go away. It has to always be managed. And that is true whether there is an addiction or not an addiction.

Testimonials
The nurturing environment combined with the accountability was exactly what I needed to begin breaking through my codependency habits.
I believe the BCP is a wonderful program that opened my eyes to issues and problems I had been denying for years. It benefited my recovery because I now know my relationship with my wife was heading towards a disasterous end. I feel this program has stopped that course and given us the tools for recovery and comunication that will last a lifetime.
Complete program. [It] made me look at things I’ve been running from for 26 years. Beauty was that it also gave me the tools to cope.
Very informative. The program gave me the tools necessary to start and be able to maintain sobriety. The speakers were wonderful and things were broken down into easy to follow language. Thanks to everyone.
Incredible! I am learning to listen to my body. Each week I learn something new about myself through the homework. Much greater awareness. I have choices. Learning not to be so reactionary. I feel freer.
