Is cheating ever justified or perhaps your only way out? This episode's guest, (we'll call her Bethany) suffered for years in a highly toxic home and relationship.

Is there ever a world in which cheating is not only right, but the only way to right a wrong?

Can An Affair Save Me From My Abusive Partner?

Affairs are prevalent but rarely talked about relationships. The podcast, Cheating: When Love Lies, is a deep dive into the complex emotions surrounding these secret unions.
Creator and host, Jillian Hamilton, delves into this taboo topic and asks the hard questions about affairs: how common are they, who's having them, and why? These questions illicit unexpected answers that reveal both men and women as people actively seeking something - validation, escape, understanding, vengeance, thrill, love, sex, and romance - outside of marriage or committed partnerships. Cheating: When Love Lies resists the condemnation of affairs as uniquely wrong or bad and instead considers their usefulness in learning as much about relationships as we learn about our ourselves.
On the podcast, Jillian Hamilton narrates short fictional stories about cheating based on true life events. The narration is followed by a roundtable discussion with everyday people who share their unique perspectives. Jillian also interviews cheaters and betrayed partners. These interviews are raw and real-and at times maddening or heartbreaking.

What is micro cheating and are you doing it? Micro cheating describes behaviors that may be considered infidelity, but the boundary between micro cheating and a full blown affair isn’t clear.  My guest today—we’ll call her Connie, blames her micro cheating for bringing her marriage to the brink of divorce. But is how Connie’s husband behaves with the ladies behind her back even worse? Is there even such a thing as micro cheating? Or is it cheating just — cheating? Join me to find out if Connie’s micro cheating sparked  the demise of her marriage or if what her husband hasn’t yet revealed will be what years them apart.

Are You Micro Cheating?

Your husband refuses to have sex with you. He won’t kiss you, touch you or show you any affection at all.

You feel neglected, abandoned and unwanted. No matter how much you beg and plead for his attention, you realize you can’t compete with that remote in his hand or his favorite recliner. This is what happened to my guest Maria. Does Maria have the right to find intimacy and pleasure wherever she can get it, or should she stay faithful to her marriage vows of monogamy and fidelity?
