#069: After The Affair - with CJ Grace

Today with CJ Grace, former BBC broadcaster and infidelity author of: The Adulterer's Wife, we discuss infidelity and how to overcome it whether we choose to stay or not.

We discuss: 

• Her husband had an affair with a woman half his age.

• The 6-part plan she created to get through it. 

• Being happier after the affair. 

• Celibacy in marriage.

• Pelvic pain contributes to sexless marriages. 

• If you had an affair in the past, how to bring it up when dating.

• How to learn to trust again.  

• Being careful not to demonise the unfaithful partner and mistress/mister.

• Not staying in the anger stage and why revenge is not the way to go.

• What can happen when you revenge-cheat on your once-cheating partner.




Reference mentioned: Esther Perel’s work on infidelity.
