Infidelity Archives

Summary: Did you know a medical emergency can suddenly make you think your partner is cheating? Researchers discovered that brain damage from a rare type of stroke can trigger "Othello syndrome." This is a condition that causes extreme, delusional jealousy. In one fascinating case, a woman with zero history of mental illness became absolutely convinced her husband was unfaithful right after her stroke. Other psychology studies in the archives show that actual cheaters use the exact same excuses and risk management skills as criminals!
