In this week’s episode, I discuss how a relationship can survive cheating of any kind (emotional or sexual). There are so many factors that determine whether a couple can come back from an infidelity. The most important thing is if that couple WANT to forgive and learn to trust again. It will take BOTH of them to do some real work; preferably with a professional, to come out on the other side stronger and closer than ever before! I have seen many marriages and relationships survive and thrive past infidelity. You have to put your commitment to the relationship before your ego in order to forgive and grow past it. There are many great books written on this topic and I suggest the one below by Dr. Bonnie Eaker-Weil.
