Publisher's Synopsis
Infidelity raises questions: Why do women stay with a cheater? Why do women cheat? Why do women become "the other woman"? How does the experience of infidelity impact future relationships? What effect does infidelity have on children? How do women deal with children born from a spouse's affair?
Drawing on interviews with U.S. women of various ages, racial backgrounds, educational attainments and sexual orientations, this insightful study examines their personal experiences of cheating and being cheated on. Equal parts engaging, uplifting and dispiriting, their narratives range from all-too-familiar stories to unconventional perspectives on love, life and interpersonal communication.
