Have you heard of the so-called “1000 Mile Rule”? It’s a trend spreading online that suggests if you’re more than a thousand miles away from your spouse, you can cheat guilt-free. Sounds shocking, right? In this video, Kimberly Beam Holmes, CEO of Marriage Helper, explains why this idea is destructive and why you should avoid it at all costs.

For over 30 years, Marriage Helper has worked with more than 25,000 couples, helping them restore their marriages and rebuild lasting commitment. In this episode, Kimberly breaks down:

✅ What the “1000 Mile Rule” actually is and where it came from
 ✅ Why ideas like this weaken trust and commitment in marriage
 ✅ The truth about monogamy and long-lasting love, backed by experts like Dr. Helen Fisher and Dr. John Gottman
 ✅ How to build stronger connection and intimacy with your spouse instead of looking outside your marriage

At Marriage Helper, we know what makes marriages thrive—and it’s not free passes, open marriages, or outside flings. True love and fulfillment come from creating safety, commitment, and passion with your spouse.

👉 If you’ve been tempted by ideas like the “1000 Mile Rule,” this video will show you why they lead to disaster—and what to do instead.
