In my experience, I see more women. But that does not mean more women cheat.

I would say fairly high. People just don’t talk about it. There is a shame associated these days with staying with someone that has cheated. Society says, “Once a cheater always a cheater” or “if you stay, second time is your fault”. So many people experience infidelity and quietly work really hard to come up on the other side. But this is when BOtH people are actively working on relationship.

Hi Slawterdu. In my experience, when people have had a parent that cheats and is not remorseful, it can lead to similar behavior as an adult. However, it is also true that the same child whom witnessed the pain that cheating caused their other parent and themselves is enough to do the complete opposite.

Hi Katet005. Thank you for your question. I do work with people whom have been in emotional affairs. The healing process is the same and I can add the emotional affairs tend to be more difficult as many times the cheater falls in love with the AP.

Hi Ks1014z great question. I do not have a specific rate and I can tell you from my experience, if the cheater is remorseful for not only hurting their partner but also for the actual affair AND The betrayed partner is open to the healing process which could be very painful, the success rate is high.
