    Gotta love Esther Perel. She’s my spirit animal 🙂

    1. Wanders – #Infidelity is an outcome of an unskillful coping mechanism, everything else is a story someone imagines. Sharing thoughts and letters with those the men and women that #betrayed their Loves, lives, and selves too. What you do today matters most. All anyone can do is own the experience and practice doing better.

      You got Esther Perel?! Damn, all I got was a porcupine.

  2. I agree as well. While the pain is the same, there are different circumstances to infidelity, no one story is the same. I don’t believe in stereotyping…

  3. I agree with Esther, there are so many variables to consider in answering the question but I don’t believe once a cheater always a cheater. Like she explains, often it comes down to a poor choice and an inability to communicate dissatisfaction with the relationship rather than a pattern of behavior.
