Could your marriage survive an affair? It's a waste of time and money to go to counseling with a serial cheater. In those cases, I say get a good divorce lawyer instead of a marriage therapist.
But, when the infidelity appears to be a stupid, one-off mistake instead of a pattern, I’m probably going to encourage reconciliation --- especially when there are young kids involved. After giving that exact advice to a recent caller, she asked for tips from other Dr. Laura listeners who’d been in her position. How had they managed to continue living with a man who deceived them? The result was a fascinating hour of calls from women who had stayed with cheating husbands.
We turned that hour into this week’s Deep Dive episode, “Staying Married After Infidelity.” Listen to our callers’ stories and suggestions!
