Is your spouse having an affair with their co-worker? They say that absence makes the heart grow fonder, but does it really? It seems that the more time we spend with someone the more bonded with them we become. We find common interests, form jokes, and grow attachments.

The time spent apart and in the company of co-workers could drive your spouse right into someone else’s arms. Dr. Katy Sampson joins us today to discuss how your spouses work schedule can affect your love life in more ways than you could have imagined.
