You confronted her with evidence. Actual evidence — not a hunch, not a feeling, something undeniable. And somehow, by the end of the conversation, you were the one defending yourself. She was crying. Her voice was shaking. And somehow, impossibly, she was the one who felt wronged. If that’s happened to you, you’re not imagining … Read more

He might not be smarter than you. He might not be more successful, better looking, or more interesting. In a lot of cases, if you lined the two of you up side by side on paper, you’d come out ahead on nearly every measurable category. And yet here you are. Understanding who he actually is … Read more

She says it only happened once. Maybe that’s true. Maybe it isn’t. But sitting underneath that sentence is the question you’re actually trying to answer, the one that will shape every decision you make from here: what kind of problem do I have?

About 13% of married women report having had sex with someone other than their spouse — and among adults under 30, women’s infidelity rates have essentially caught up to men’s. Those figures come from the General Social Survey, the longest-running study of American social behavior, conducted by NORC at the University of Chicago. This guide … Read more
