HONEST QUESTION: Did you ever think 'SHE'LL NEVER LEAVE ME, so I can keep doing this'?

Most partners wonder if their addict secretly believed they could get away with it forever. In this brutally honest conversation, Jay answers questions that keeps betrayed spouses up at night, including: DID YOU THINK I WAS TOO WEAK TO LEAVE?

His answer might surprise you.

What you'll discover:

• Why Jay believed 'people leave' but kept lying anyway (the twisted logic of addiction)

• The moment I stopped being the 'good Christian girl' and what finally changed

• Did he see my staying as weakness or strength? (you need to hear this)

• How addicts put 'stock in their ability to lie' and why that delusion keeps them trapped

• The difference between desperate plate-spinning vs. mastermind manipulation (who we work with)

• When it finally hit him that I wasn't going to tolerate this forever (it wasn't what I expected)

FOR PARTNERS: If you've ever wondered whether your loyalty is being used as a weapon against you, this conversation validates everything you're feeling. Jay reveals what was really going through his mind when I stayed, when I threatened to leave, and when I finally meant it.

FOR ADDICTS: If you're thinking 'just one more time' or 'she'll never find out,' you need to hear why that thinking is borrowed time, not clever strategy.

PLUS: What I did every time we had a bad conversation (separating boxes, DIY divorce books, and the grief that always followed).
