Essay / Research Paper Abstract
(8 pp) When an extramarital affair is discovered,
often the couple will undergo a crisis. This may
not sound surprising. However, this crisis can be
the most difficult part of the issue. The 'injured'
spouse may feel emotionally abandoned by the other
spouse. She or he may feel a loss of her/his
image of marriage, of her/his marriage.
'A joint sense of loss as well as the expected
guilt and defensiveness.' Recurrent and persistent
thoughts about the situation can sometimes
interfere with a person's ability to function.
Individuals may have difficulty working, taking
care of themselves and/or their families, etc.
when such grief and reflection plague them. Few of
any of these principles apply to the salesman,
Willy Loman, or do they?

Supposedly this has been the case repeatedly with research surveys. Coping According to Wier (1992), the potential for violence in this instance becomes a real concern. One large study
found that individuals who were married or who had families, "considered the act of killing in the face of infidelity to be more justified" than their single or childless counterparts.
Due to the power structures that already exist in a battering relationship, confronting marital infidelity is likely to lead to further violence. If violence does not seem likely, discussing the
matter of infidelity constructively may still seem difficult for the couple. According to Truhe (1999), attempts for any type of discussion may, frequently degenerate into bitter arguments. Quarreling over
