I Was Christmas Shopping With My Mother-in-Law When I Saw My Husband Holding Another Woman’s Hand—Then She Whispered, “Don’t React. Watch Me.”
Because people who cannot imagine another person’s version of events make me nervous now.

That line mattered more than:
I am sorry I cheated.
Because it identified the mechanism.
