Sadly, no one is immune to infidelity.
Monogamous relationships are what most people say they believe in and look for partners with the same beliefs and values. But having these beliefs and values does not prevent large numbers of people from having extramarital affairs, because many people
don’t intend to have the affair in the first place.
Research has shown that affairs happen: in both healthy and unhealthy relationships more so in couples who had brief courtships
• more so in ages 20’s and 40’s
• when one or both partners work long hours
• with co-workers in the workplace
• with a friend or family member
It therefore appears that even the most unlikely couple is not immune from
infidelity occurring in their relationship and the subsequent disruption to
their lives and the lives of those they care about. Affairs happen to all kinds of people, in all walks of life.
