This American Life
393: Infidelity

Did you think something was always going to happen?

This American Life
393: Infidelity

So it was like she wanted you to find out without having to say it?

This American Life
393: Infidelity

And you actually had to tell me.

This American Life
393: Infidelity

I think, were you going to tell me together?

This American Life
393: Infidelity

You were very angry with me quite rightly and I think up until that point we'd always had a very close relationship and your anger manifest itself mostly by you just refusing to see me.

This American Life
393: Infidelity

I think it was just people were very shocked by what happened and I was very shocked and dad was very shocked.

This American Life
393: Infidelity

that still comes back, you know, to your irritation.

This American Life
393: Infidelity

You can't get rid of this sort of thing.

This American Life
393: Infidelity

And I think with George, somehow, for me, the chemistry disappeared quite early on.

This American Life
393: Infidelity

It got very complicated because George and Andrew, far from becoming rivals and kind of having a duel at dawn, far from George challenging Andrew to a duel at dawn, George kind of welcomed Andrew into the fold and Andrew became a kind of member of my family but without me there.
