[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Therapist who has dealt with a lot of infidelity in my day.

Short answer: most affairs are about escaping and not someone looking to do the work of a long term relationship.

Of course there are exceptions. But that's the case for many affairs.

I used to come on this forum a lot - took a break in the last few years - but it's funny, in every affair thread people would reference Angelina and Brad as proof that affairs work out. I remember when I got wind of their UGLY divorce, the fact that the older kids don't talk to him anymore, and that he had long-standing addiction issues, and I thought, huh. [/quote]

Classic childhood trauma issues in that relationship.  Angelina preys on committed men. She broke up Laura Dern and Billy Bob Thornton's engagement too.   She is known to be mentally unstable (daddy issues). The nature of her and her father, Jon Voight's, relationship is often termed as turbulent and is filled with ups and downs. Their relationship has been rocky to a point where Jolie has legally dropped the last name of her father.

The trouble began when Jon Voight, despite being married to Jolie's mother Marcheline Bertrand, had an affair. It has been reported that Jolie was just a baby and her brother was not much older when Voight divorced Bertrand.[b] Marcheline Bertrand was just 28-years-old when she had to take care of two children and give up on her career as an actor, as her estranged husband had allegedly abandoned the family. Angelina Jolie had seen the distress and anguish that her mother had to go through and that filled her mind with hatred towards her father.[/b]

[b]They always repeat the sins of the cheater in the family.  It is multi-generational.  [/b]Psychologists had allegedly that Jolie’s involvement with drugs, her bouts of depression, suicidal thoughts, self-mutilation and her becoming sexually active at a young age can all be said to be due to her abandonment issues. Their relationship throughout Jolie’s teenage years has been strained.[/quote]

I strongly agree with the correlation here. Apple doesn’t fall too far from the tree.[/quote]
