OK, I’m confused.<\/p>\n
I tuned in to Oprah<\/span> this afternoon for Part II of the whole “Why Do Men Cheat?” situation and to my surprise, there was a segment about the use of lie detectors.<\/span><\/p>\n I’m not (totally) ashamed to admit that I once had a really intense addiction to Maury’s<\/span> daily schtick – “…and the lie detector says that you tried to have sex with our sexy decoy” or my personal favorite, “You are<\/span> the father of 4-year-old Tyrone!” – but on Oprah<\/span>?

I’m sorry…what?<\/p>\n While I certainly give much respect to those folks who are down to save their relationships and marriages, I would sooner pack my bags than subject myself to dragging my man downtown for a lie detector test. I’m not snooping through American Express and Verizon Wireless bills either. But sadly, what I took away from the today’s show is that the woman still gets blamed when her husband cheats.

It’s not about women not giving<\/span> them something. You have to respect one another…you can’t always give each other exactly what you need in a marriage, but it doesn’t make it OK to go toward another woman.”<\/p>\n Oh, and here are three of Neuman’s tips to “affair-proof” your marriage:<\/p>\n – appreciate your spouse more Is it really that simple? And if so, why would Lady O be doing a two-parter?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" OK, I’m confused.
