You will find that this one is a little different. My approach to detecting, preventing and surviving infidelity is a bit unusual by most so-called conventional standards.

There is really nothing anyone can say to ease (or erase) the pain caused when a husband or wife has been caught cheating. Believe me, I truly understand. You wish it never happened, and it could all just go away.

If you’re married and cheating, or you’ve had an extramarital affair sometime in the past, rather than beat yourself up, throw tantrums, blame circumstances or stage another pity party… I challenge you to search for your motives, and let this experience become a journey of self-discovery.

(The numbers are better for those who seek professional help.) So, if you really want to know how you survive an affair, first we must look at: What causes infidelity in the first place?

THE TRUTH ABOUT EMOTIONAL AFFAIRS: You would be shocked at the number of lies, myths, and the variety of excuses associated with infidelity. I’ve gotten to the point now where I feel I can’t be shocked, yet over and over again, I’m surprised by the ingenuity of wayward partners.
