Answer to Question 1

Suppose you are counseling an individual who recently broke up with her partner of 15 years. The partner had cheated before but insisted that those instances were meaningless dalliances. The breakup occurred when the client discovered the partner had not only cheated, but had an ongoing affair that began several years ago.
