"Mad Men" has made us cheer for a cheating husband.
We cannot get over the Mad Men season 3 series finale. Thought #1: Best show on TV since Six Feet Under. Thought #2: WTF, Betty Draper? Thought #3: Why are we rooting for the cheat-bag Don Draper anyway?
Now, we know. We know that it's about time that Betty stand up for herself. The character's ability to make you love and loathe her simultaneously is a gift from the writers. (And unfortunately, not the actor, January Jones. Pretty girl, but we hear Jon Hamm hates working with her…He totally carries every scene. But anyway…) Ex Ashton Told January Jones To Quit … Read More
Steve Philips heads off to rehab following his workplace affair—is he a cheater or a sex addict?
David Duchovny first broke it to the mainstream media, Bryan Jenkins, the reality TV show contestant who allegedly murdered his wife, was rumored to have suffered from it, and now, ex-ESPN analyst Steve Philips is seeking rehab for it after a sordid affair with a young production assistant. We're talking about sex addiction and the gossip media is all abuzz about this newfangled condition since these three recent, high-profile cases.
PsychCentral.com defines sex addiction as, "a progressive intimacy disorder characterized by compulsive sexual thoughts and acts." Obviously, this is frustratingly vague—what's to keep any serial cheater … Read More

Being easy isn't as easy as you might think.
Kate Major recently spoke with the CBS Early Show about her affair with Jon Gosselin, the real reason why she quit her job at Star magazine a few days into their affair, and the fact that the father of eight inevitably got back together with Hailey Glassman.
Clearly devastated by the situation, the second Kate insisted that she was not a dummy for getting involved with a D-lister with an estranged wife, a 22-year-old girlfriend, and a brood of children. Rather, she described herself as something of a victim.
Of course, we'd love to be able to reassure her that … Read More

Inside infidelity: how a young woman fell into an adulterous affair with an older, married man.
I was in his office, rug burn forming on my knees as he slid me back and forth on top of him. I could see photos of his wife smiling and laughing on the bookshelf and his desk. I'd thought about escaping when I first saw them that evening. Instead, I stayed, feeling nauseous about the person I'd become. He's just too charming, his presence too intense for me to resist. To be honest, my willpower is nothing to brag about. And it doesn't help that I'm falling in love.
We met at my first business conference when I was 23 … Read More
