And yet, this extremely common human experience-universally forbidden yet universally practiced-is poorly understood.</p><ul><li>Why do people cheat-even those in happy marriages?</li><li>Why does an affair hurt so much? Do our romantic expectations of marriage set us up for betrayal?</li><li>Is there such a thing as an affair-proof marriage? Is it possible to love more than one person at once?</li><li>Can an affair ever help a marriage?</li></ul><p>For a decade, psychotherapist and <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author Esther Perel traveled the globe and worked with hundreds of couples who have grappled with cheating.
