Over the last two decades, Esther Perel has become a world-famous
couples therapist by persistently advocating frank conversations
about infidelity, sex and intimacy. Today, Perel reads one of the
most provocative Modern Love essays ever published: “What
Sleeping With Married Men Taught Me About Infidelity,” by
Karin Jones.

In her 2018 essay, Jones wrote about her experience seeking out
no-strings-attached flings with married men after her divorce.
What she found, to her surprise, was how much the men missed
having sex with their own wives, and how afraid they were to tell
them.

Jones faced a heavy backlash after the essay was published. Perel
reflects on why conversations around infidelity are still so
difficult and why she thinks Jones deserves more credit.

Esther Perel is on tour in the U.S. Her show is called “An
Evening With Esther Perel: The Future of Relationships, Love
& Desire.”
