Someone Third Between Us. Why Do People Cheat Even in Happy Relationships and What to Do If It Happens

Why do people cheat when everything is wonderful in their relationships? Why can a wife's success push her husband towards another woman, and why can virtual flirting be worse than physical infidelity? Psychotherapist Svetlana Demidova explains through real stories of clients that infidelity is not always a tale of a guilty cheater and an innocent victim: it can be driven by a crisis of identity, childhood traumas, envy, revenge for years of silent grievances, or an attempt to survive in emotional chaos. «Someone Third Between Us» helps to understand what a person was seeking outside, why they couldn't find it at home or within themselves, and how to decide — to forgive and save the relationship or to part ways. After all, a crisis does not always mean the end: sometimes the «third» appears between people so they can finally see the truth about their relationships and themselves.
