"You're writing something on infidelity? Well on the people who commit it or the people that have had it done to them?" I state blankly at my mother, "Good point." I reply curiously. My mother really did have a good point; when we think about the dangers of infidelity how often to we look at the outcome from BOTH sides of the slaughter? Infidelity doesn't just affect the cheater, it also has a long term effect on the cheated.

But since we seem to aim so quickly at the consequences of the cheating, we can assess that first. There are a few dangers that arise from cheating on your partner externally.
