Infidelity, Narcissists, Cheaters and Our Culture

April 5, 2010 By Sylvia Lafair

There seems to be a new polarization happening between men and women. Granted the celebrities in the news who are the cheating ones are mostly men, at least for now.

The big debate is about sexual addiction and we are all asked to vote if we think sleeping around is a disease of not. The article in the Huffington Post caught my eye and by the time I finished I had a knot of sadness in my stomach. We are so conditioned to making snap decisions about right and wrong we get stuck and never look beyond the obvious. Truly no one knows except the couple in the bedroom.

There is a poem by Rumi that ends “Somewhere between right and wrong there is a field, I’ll meet you there”. I am interested in your comments about this article as well as my take on it.
