James Sexton says the statistics around infidelity are often misunderstood. He explains that self reported surveys are unreliable because people tend to answer in ways that protect their image.
From over two decades working in divorce law, he has observed patterns that differ by gender. He says many men describe affairs as impulsive and disconnected from their primary relationship, often insisting they still love their spouse. In contrast, he more commonly sees women’s affairs happen when the relationship is already emotionally over.
