Infidelity

"Love is messy; infidelity more so."

The crisis that an affair, like many other life crises, propels us into the essence of things. It’s often the first time that couples broach conversations they’ve avoided for years. Conversations about unmet needs, longings, frustrations, and loneliness that in hindsight, people wish they had engaged in much earlier in their relationships. As tempting as it is to reduce affairs to sex and lies, I prefer to use infidelity as a portal into the complex landscape of relationships and the boundaries we draw to bind them. I urge you to engage in these important conversations, regardless of where you are in the journey of your relationship.
