Each week host Jillian Hamilton interviews affair partners and betrayed partners who share their raw, real deeply personal stories of infidelity. Hear true stories of cheating and affairs told by the people who actually lived them. Jillian delves into this taboo topic and asks the hard questions about affairs: what constitutes an affair, who's having them, and why? These questions illicit unexpected answers that reveal both men and women as people actively seeking something - validation, escape, understanding, vengeance, thrill, love, sex, and romance - outside of marriage or committed partnerships. Occasionally Cheating: When Love Lies welcomes experts in the field of relationships, but mostly we hear directly from people who are currently navigating an affair or have experienced one.
Silence is the lethal injection in any relationship. It’s more invective and hurtful than a barrage of expletives and a slamming door. In silence, you deny your partner the surety of knowing where you stand and giving them the option to do something about it.
I’ve written a short fictional story called “Answer Me You Son Of A Bitch,” that chronicles the agony of a married woman who is ghosted by her married lover for months and months, until one day fate brings a chance for her to win him back.
At the start of the episode I narrate “Answer Me You Son Of A Bitch”, then follow it up with a roundtable discussion with my guests and friends David, Samantha and John, who react to the story and share their own thoughts on infidelity.
