The Earthquake That Changes Everything
What if your safest relationship became your greatest threat? One morning you're sharing coffee with your partner of twenty years. By evening, you've discovered they've been living a double life. This isn't a thriller plot-it's the reality facing countless couples today. Shirley P. Glass spent decades studying this devastating phenomenon, and what she discovered challenges everything we thought we knew about cheating. The most dangerous affairs don't start in bars or dating apps. They begin at the office coffee machine, in gym parking lots, through late-night work emails-innocent spaces where "just friends" gradually becomes something unrecognizable. Her research revealed a startling pattern: 82% of unfaithful partners had affairs with someone who started as merely a friend. This isn't your grandmother's infidelity. It's quieter, slower, and far more destructive because by the time anyone realizes what's happening, emotional roots have grown impossibly deep. Think about your closest work colleague or gym buddy. Now imagine that relationship gradually replacing your marriage as your primary emotional connection. This is how modern affairs unfold-not through dramatic passion but through incremental boundary erosions that feel harmless until they're not.
