Recovering From an Extramarital Affair

According to marriage and family therapist, Dave Carder, "The most important motivator of any affair is the deep desire to be nurtured and loved unconditionally. That includes many components, such as touch, attitude, playfulness, romance, sex, and appreciation."

In his book, Torn Asunder, Dave writes, "Some adult children of parental affairs have huge agendas, or needs, that could never be met by any spouse -- and they bring them like baggage, into the marriage. If that description fits you and you are married, don't put off working on this issue any longer."
