There's been no shortage of politicians in the news who cheated on their wives (Sanford, Spitzer, Clinton — we're talking about you), and the television show The Good Wife is even dramatizing this all-too-familiar story. Most social scientists and psychologists are not surprised; many of the traits that are required for political leadership are prevalent in narcissism: ambition, risk-taking, and charisma. You don't need to be a narcissist to be a political leader, but it doesn't hurt.

In an ideal world, says sex therapist and relationship counselor Dr. Ian Kerner, partners in committed relationships wouldn't hide anything from each other nor be suspicious of the other's activities. But Internet infidelity is such a problem these days, he argues, that sometimes you are justified in snooping on your partner's online activity.

There's no way to sugarcoat this one — I cheated on my boyfriend of five years who I live with, with one of his best friends. I couldn't bear the lies anymore, so I told him the truth and begged for forgiveness, because I really do love him and want to spend the rest of my life with him. When I owned up to my infidelity, he thanked me for preventing him from making the biggest mistake of his life.

Dear Sugar,
I got married last September and ever since then, my relationship with my husband has completely changed. He has been wanting to do more and more things without me and he is just simply not the same man I thought he was. I have seen large receipts from the ATM and he has no accountability for where this money has gone.

I polled you last Summer, asking if you've ever been cheated on, and unfortunately, 65 percent of you have experienced infidelity. Breaking trust in the relationship is what I've always considered to be the worst part, but deception of any kind is equally damaging.
While some people feel once a cheater, always a cheater, other aren't as black and white on the issue.

DearSugar and Holding Back Betsy need your help. She cheated on her boyfriend, but when she came clean, she wasn't 100 percent truthful in her story. She's still guilt-ridden, so should she broach the subject one more time and get everything off her chest, or should she just let it go?
