[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Selfishness and a lack of realism. The narrative pushed is one of eternal passion, and parents and families (elders) don’t do enough to model and discuss what mature marriages look like. I also blame a media milieu so sexualized that our sexuality has become perverted. We are so driven by titillating visuals and so divorced from the sacredness of sex. There are also so many people so disconnected from themselves that they seek fulfillment and wholeness from outside sources. They lack the capacity for true intimacy - this is probably the underlying cause of most cheating (and other sexually compulsive behavior). People need healing and self-love before becoming married. Society does a lousy job of supporting marriage/families in general, so it takes an enormous amount of introspection and empathy to get it right. [/quote] As someone who has been in therapy with a former cheater, I can say this is all so true.[/quote]
