Joy Recovery Radio explains infidelity through the Deceptive Sexuality and Trauma (DST) model, emphasizing that the primary injury is integrity abuse—the hidden “secret sexual basement” of deception, manipulation, and gaslighting. Roy & Jacqueline outline three core motivational drivers: escape (acting out to avoid internal pain and regulate emotions), entitlement (compulsive entitled sexuality sustained by learned beliefs that he “deserves” a private sexual world), and malevolence (weaponized betrayal organized around intentional harm, control, punishment, and contempt, linked to integrity abuse disorder). They describe how each driver shapes recovery needs, caution listeners to pause if activated, and recommend processing with professional support. They also present recovery domains (integrity, impact, integration) and the betrayed-partner “three S’s” pathway: stabilization, self-trust, and self-alignment, emphasizing healing does not depend on the partner changing.
