Loyalty is one of the most fundamental aspects of a relationship. When someone cheats, it not only shatters trust but also causes feelings of hurt, betrayal and immense grief. Even the strongest relationships can fall apart under the weight of infidelity.
Cheating in any form—whether physical (sexual infidelity), emotional (deep romantic connections outside the relationship) or online (flirting or intimate exchanges over the internet)—can severely damage relationships.
Many couples struggle to recover from infidelity, and in many cases, it leads to separation or divorce. Even when such relationships persevere, they are often marked by unhappiness, insecurity and emotional distance.
