Internet Infidelity Statistics

Has the Internet turned your relationship inside-out? Does it seem that your partner’s entire personality has changed since discovering the Internet? Does your Internet-obsessed partner suddenly demand privacy when using the Internet, ignore once routinely performed household chores, come late to bed every night and never has time for sex? Is your partner less interested in your relationship? A possible cyber-affair may be brewing.

When a husband or wife turns to the adult web sites, social media, dating sites, or sites designed to have an affair — this may be the end of your marriage. The cyberwidow left behind must confront rejection, abandonment, anger, and confusion about what happened and why.
