Expert advice to get your relationships back on track
Judy Asked:“I’ve suspected for years that my father has been cheating on my Mom, and last week a former mistress of his contacted me on Facebook and confirmed it. Now I can’t look at him without wanting to punch something (preferably him). I think my Mom deserves to know but I don’t want to hurt her. They’ve been drifting apart lately and have been trying to reconnect. I don’t know what I should do.”
- Judy (25, Ireland)

Zayda Asked:“I have been married for three years and i always saw my husband with love and respect. I was so in love, until I found out he was cheating. We separated for a couple of months but he asked me to take him back and I did because I still loved him. The truth is that once we moved back together I realized It wasn’t the same, I did not trust him and I saw him differently. A few months ago we had a roomate, I started having feelings for this guy, just the way he is and all the fun i have when we hangout. He moved out a couple of months ago and eventhough nothing had happened between us I missed him. We started texting and then starting going out just as friends, We have not had sex because I am married and is something we both decided on, but we have kissed and there is a lot of chemistry between us. I don’t know what to do. The only thing I know is that things between me and my husband are not the same.”

Paula Asked:“My boyfriend and I work in the same place but in different departments so hardly see each other. Last year, months before he got with me, he got drunk and kissed his co worker on a night out and recently I’ve seen them flirting again and I’m starting to wonder if it’ll happen again. She’s married and has a terrible reputation but as she’s pretty guys are falling over themselves to flirt with her as they know of her reputation. I can’t stop thinking about my boyfriend and her flirting and getting close again. We spoke about it and he told me that there’s nothing in it, he has banter with everyone and she doesn’t give him any grief and it’s not that he enjoys the attention. That worried me. He’s talking about her not giving him grief and I’m guessing he’s saying I do. I don’t want him to be going to work for an ego boost and enjoying himself with her rather than wanting to be with me that way. I’ve tried to explain to him that it worries me he’s flirting with her because of what happened before and the fact he seems to be getting closer to her after us talking about it scares me. It’s hurting me so much. If I bring it up we end up having an argument, he’ll say I have to trust him, which I try to do. Please help me. On the positive side he’s talking about holidays together next year, us going with his family on holiday and moving in together which I know means he’s serious but I wake up in the morning and think about this. I need help on getting it out of my head.”

Jane Asked:“Do two “wrongs” make a right. I’ve been cheated on from my most recent long term relationship. Now there is a guy who is 35, married with kids who is interested in me. Told his wife he took me out to drinks and she wasn’t being a very good wife. He says he has been cheated on but really who knows…may just want me in bed to get his fix b/c he isn’t getting it more than once a week. What is your take on that? And how do I find the one who aren’t attached!?! Without doing the whole “bar sceen”, I don’t have a “job”, I’m an entreprenuer so my networking circle is my social interaction.
Thanks!”

Terry Asked:“I suspect my fiance of an affair. last sept. I saw a text on his phone. “hey sexy are you working” He said she was a waitress at Hooters, She would save him a table get him in and out quick. I checked cell phone records, they were texting each other almost daily even when we were on vacation. bank statement shows he has gone there on average of twice a week for several months. what is your opinion. can’t get him to talk about it. says she is just a waitress.”
- Terry (51)

Annie Asked:“My husband of 19 yrs was just caught having an affair. It was going on for 2 1/2 years. he has been begging, pleading etc….that it was a mistake and he only wants me and the kids. I believe he is close to a nervous breakdown. Here is were my question comes in. The only place they ever saw eachother was at her apartment during the day for sex. 2-3x a month. He never bought her anything, took her anywhere or gave her any money. She confirmed this so it has to be true. He insists he never cared for her it was only sex. He never told her he loved her. I know he isnt lying because she is mad at him now and trying to talk to me. He called her in front of me and told her I love my wife, you were only sex, even called her a whore, she freaked . Could it be true to have a 2 1/2 yr affair and have no feelings for her?????”

Add to the list of recent exposed cheaters NFL star and Today show correspondent Tiki Barber. He joins the likes of Tiger Woods, Jesse James, John Edwards – and these are just the people who’ve been exposed recently. Every time we turn around it seems someone larger than life is being brought down by confessions or allegations of infidelity.
Barber announced he’s leaving his wife of 11 years (who’s eight months pregnant with twins, I might add!) for his 23-year-old mistress, a former NBC intern. It seems like infidelity is spreading like an epidemic and I do believe infidelity and adultery can be treated like a disease, brought into the light, discussed and thereby hopefully rehabbing those who have faced it or succumbed to it. In fact, not long ago it was discovered that there’s a link between a specific gene and the way men bond to their partners, thereby making them less or more likely to be disposed to infidelity.

Diana Asked:“My bf and I have been together for almost 7 years (we also have a 4 year old together). We have been through many ups and downs but I really love him. Late March he moved out due to our arguing. I had a lot of weight on my shoulders (being the main breadwinner, going to nursing school, taking care of our daughter mostly by myself) and I admit when we got in arguments I would resent him for all the work I was doing and I would verbally abuse him. I would put him down etc… Since March he comes over for the weekends for our daughter however we act like we are still together (we are intimate say I love you etc.) He reassured me that this break was for both of us to grow separately in order to get back together and be in a good relationship.
