"Infidelity stems from unaddressed personal issues and a lack of self-love", says Dr. Margaret Paul.
Dr. Margaret Paul dives into the complex world of infidelity in this episode of Inner Bonding, offering a fresh perspective on why people stray and how relationships can heal. With a blend of compassion and expertise, she explores the reasons behind cheating, suggesting that it's often rooted in a lack of self-love and emotional abandonment. You might find yourself nodding along as she describes scenarios that sound all too familiar.
Whether it's Ed's quest for power or Eloise's search for attention, the underlying theme is clear: infidelity stems from unaddressed personal issues. Dr. Paul doesn't shy away from discussing the tough questions, like why some partners stay despite knowing about affairs. She highlights the difference between those who cheat due to an inner void and those who seek passion outside their marriage because it's lacking at home.
Her advice is straightforward - healing starts with taking responsibility for one's own feelings and learning to love oneself. Megan and Jim's story is particularly enlightening, showing that infidelity doesn't have to spell doom for a relationship. Through Inner Bonding, they transformed their marriage by understanding their own needs and taking emotional responsibility. Dr. Paul encourages couples to address their internal struggles rather than blaming external factors.
If you're grappling with infidelity, whether you're the one who strayed or the one who's been hurt, this episode offers valuable insights. It's not just about fixing what's broken but building something new and stronger. Are you ready to explore the root causes and start your journey to healing?
