What Constitutes Infidelity?


Two questions a therapist should never answer:
Is my partner lying to me? 

and
Should I leave him/her?


Love = To Have
Desire= To Want

Ask yourself, "I'm drawn to my partner when_________________"...


Happy marriage does not equal good sex and good sex does not equal happy marriage

Infidelity is a breach of the intimate attachment.

It's certainly a sign of the times that we can't really pinpoint what fidelity is, but we sure know it when it happens in our most prized relationship.

Stages of recovery are as follows:
Pre-Discovery, Crisis, Shock, grief, Repair and Growth

Most couples want to preserve their marriage and family stability. 
2/3rds  of marriage now end in divorce and 2/3rds of divorce are initiated by women.
