In light of the esteemed Governor of South Carolina, we started talking about marriages and infidelity this morning, and thought this might be an interesting topic to explore for our Good Question tonight at ten. How do marriages survive affairs? Can they? Should they?
I'm looking for some data, but I bet more people stay together than split up after someone cheats. Obviously, kids are a factor. But it's more than that. I talked to my wife today, and she told me her answer is: Our marriage would not survive an affair. But I imagine this isn't something you can really know until you go through it.
Anyway, I'd love your feedback. What are the ingredients to moving forward?
