Sex is usually about more than just sex.
So to improve our sex lives, it’s often necessary to explore and discuss non-sexual things.
Here are examples of patients who wondered “Why are we talking about this instead of sex?” Our successful therapy showed them why.
As both a sex therapist and marriage counselor, I have been talking to individuals and couples about infidelity for over thirty years.
People often impulsively reveal this to others–which is frequently a mistake.
Linda Tripp died a few days ago at age 70. I was going to ignore it, until I saw headlines everywhere about her being a “whistleblower.”
This is a terrible insult to actual whistleblowers–people who expose government wrongdoing at risk to their own careers or lives. Think Navy Captain Brett Crozier, who sacrificed his career after sounding the alarm about coronavirus on the aircraft carrier Theodore Roosevelt.
Extramarital affairs? Men and women marry, so men and women cheat. Sometimes it’s once, with no emotional attachment. Sometimes it’s years with a beloved in the next town—virtually a second husband or wife.
And sometimes the whole thing blows up. When it does, some Cheaters actually makes things worse.
