The Burning Question

Once trust is gone, Gary wondered, what does the concept of “relationship” even mean?

That’s the painful puzzle many people face who’ve suffered something similar—and what makes the message and the mission of this book so important to me. It’s about helping people figure out how to move beyond the emotional impasse that Gary and Rita reached in the hope of finding a way to reconcile what’s in danger of remaining fractured forever—all for lack

of trust.

Granted, as we’ve discussed earlier, sometimes reconciliation—restoring normal relations with someone—is neither possible nor advisable. The magnitude of the betrayal or the threat of repeat offenses—such as in cases of physical, emotional, or sexual abuse—presents too wide a gulf to bridge. True reconciliation requires three essential elements to succeed:

A sense of safety

A belief that a genuine change of behavior is possible

A desire to move forward into a shared future once more
