Getting into an abusive relationship is a quick path to a horrible future. Getting into a great relationship, however, can seem like the best thing that ever happened… unless they cheat, then it feels like an abusive relationship.

If you decide to stay in a relationship where you know infidelity is happening, are you being abused, or are you abusing yourself? 

There’s a mindset that kicks in after the initial shock of finding out about the betrayal. And that mindset raises your toleration level to an all-time high, causing you to accept more bad behavior. It’s not fun and can beat you down until you are completely broken.

I talk about that and other relationship woes in today’s episode.
