We all too commonly hear about cheating spouses and infidelity on talk shows and reality shows. They bring on warring couples who dramatically expose their cheating in front of live studio audiences. Some shows have even popularized the idea of having a fling outside of marriage to fulfill some imagined desire. And yet, the difficulty of a relationship surviving past infidelity underscores the far-reaching and negative effects an affair can have on society as a whole.
If you look at the statistics, youll find that infidelity is a major concern to both married and engaged couples. These statistics also say that one in five divorces will result from infidelity. Its not just the man who is guilty of cheating anymore. Statistics show that women are now cheating on their marriage just as often as the man.
