Perel gives a frank talk about infidelity and what exactly it means. She defines an affair as “a secretive relationship, which is the core structure of an affair;an emotional connection to one degree or another; and a sexual alchemy”. Perel commented, sometimes we cheat not because we are turning away from our partner but because we are turning away from the person we have become.
