I just can't take it anymore. After watching DWTS last night, I am disgusted by Kate's decision to dance on a reality show while her young children sit at home, basically abandoned and not being attended to by EITHER parent. I'll admit, I'm one of those people who have always been fascinated by multiples, and therefore was hooked on Kate and Jon when they first appeared on TV. But what I see unfolding in the Gosselin household now is nothing short of a travesty. This time last year those children were being raised in a two parent home, by a mom and dad who loved them. Regardless of how unhealthy the marital atmosphere was, at least the children were experiencing love from their parents on a daily basis, in their own home. Now, fast forward a year later and what do we find? Eight little orphans whose only contact with dad seems to be when he's showing up on TMZ, and only contact with mom is when they are allowed to come for a "visit" (as she put it last night), with their ballroom

Okay, I'm going to say it; Tiger owes those other women an apology. He owes them a sincere, honest, heartfelt apology and he needs to provide them with it ASAP, like today. However, since he's busy in rehab and in the interest of time, I will write the apology for him. So here goes…

Dearest Concubine,

I have seen you on the news sniffling, crying and being distraught about our affair ending and I think it is time for me to reach out to you, and provide an apology during your time of despair. I want you to know that I never wanted things to turn out like this, as I was willing to ride this pony until the wheels fell off, but obviously that is no longer possible. So let me take this opportunity to offer you my sincerest apology. I'd like to say that I am so sorry I misled you and fooled you into believing that I would consider leaving my wife and kids for a mattress actress. I'm sorry that you mistook our twice a month romp sessions for a meaningful relationship and that

So, I turn on the news this morning and see that Tiger Woods has reportedly now entered sex addict rehab. My initial reaction was to say, "Yeah right, another celeb runs off to rehab to escape the heat", but then I got to thinking, could this actually be a real affliction?

In order to get to the bottom of this, I decided to do a little online research. What I found out was that apparently sex addiction does seem to be a legitimate problem when it comes to those who have an obsession with porn or masturbation in lieu of actual physical contact with another human being, but opinions seem to be all over the place when it comes to men who simply choose to have ongoing sexual relationships with multiple women. Therefore, I decided to poll a few of my male colleagues on the issue and, to my surprise, every single one of them scoffed at the notion that Tiger is a sex addict. One went as far as to say, "He's no more of a sex addict than any other man, and the men who are labeling him

I've heard so much talk about Tiger Woods over the past month that I think my ears are about to burst. I compare this story to a car accident that just won't go away. Countless so-called experts have appeared on television, radio, and elsewhere to discuss "the problem" with Tiger and how he could have gotten himself in to this mess. The fact of the matter is that we can all talk, speculate and gossip until we are blue in the face and never quite come up with an answer or pinpoint a cause. Truth is, Tiger wasn't the first and he damn sure isn't going to be the last to succumb to temptation and the lure of constant ego stroking coupled with abundant access to sexual fulfillment. But this story goes much farther than Tiger and his multiple, inexcusable transgressions. What many people seem to have forgotten is that during each of Tiger's escapades, there was more than one person who was in the room enjoying the moment and knew that what they were doing was wrong…but unfortunately

After reading the letter that Steve Phillips's mistress sent to his wife, I felt the need to post the following piece.

Letter from a betrayed wife: Anytown USA

Things I wish you wouldn't have done.

I have grown to accept the fact that you chose to have an affair and to go outside of our marriage for selfish gratification, ego stroking, and other BS excuses, and though I may never understand why you did what you did, I may one day find the strength to forgive you. There are some components of this mess you made, however, that I will never accept, never understand and never be able to forgive. You see my dear, for me these things were war crimes, and hit below the lines of basic selfish, immature and destructive behavior. These are things which will complicate my road to recovery and make this event something which will likely be a sore spot for me for the remainder of my living days. So beyond sleeping with someone else, here is a list of things I really wish you

Well, here we go again. For those who didn't figure it out from the movie Fatal Attraction, you'd think that perhaps they'd catch a clue from the Amy Fisher saga or countless other everyday reports of jilted lovers seeking revenge on adulterous husbands or their unsuspecting wives. Now, I pick up the newspaper and see the story about Steve McNair, former QB for the Baltimore Ravens, who appears to have been killed in a murder-suicide at the hands of his lover. Although the investigation is still underway, there seems to be more than enough evidence to conclude that McNair, who'd been married for nearly 12 years, had been having an affair with the young 20 year old suspected killer for several months.

So my question is this, why is it that cheaters don't seem to calculate or acknowledge the risks of toying with the emotions of an affair partner with whom they have no intention or plans on making a permanent commitment? I mean, come on, these guys rarely leave their wives yet they

We see far too often in the media, and in our own personal circles, a cheating husband running around town with another woman and seemingly having the time of his life, while his wife sits at home in a state of ignorance or non-acceptance. As a betrayed wife myself, I often wondered if people viewed me as stupid because my husband chose to publically disregard our marital vows, and in my opinion, humiliate me in front of others. I personally have never viewed myself as stupid, but rather feel that any man who would trade in a Mercedes for a Pinto is the one who is stupid. I must admit, though, that I sometimes view other betrayed wives as stupid for either not knowing their man is cheating on them, or not doing anything about it. I know I should be ashamed for thinking that way, I mean isn't that the ultimate example of throwing stones from a glass house? I just can't seem to shake this perception though, perhaps because deep down inside, or not so deep, I may be attempting to ignore

Once someone has betrayed you, can you ever really trust them again? There's an old saying: "Once bitten, twice shy", which basically means that once a person has been wronged, they will be twice as careful the next time around. But is that always true, and once betrayed, is trust really lost forever?

For me it is. I can say for certain that I will never, ever completely trust a person who has done me wrong, in a relationship or otherwise. Not that I can't forgive, because I can, but can I ever let my guard down again? Nope, not me, because being guarded is my natural response to betrayal.

I know some people who have been cheated on, have forgiven their spouse, and completely and totally trust that person again…or at least they claim they do. Perhaps since I am both an investigator and an infidelity survivor, I have more trust issues than most. Yet for me it is a far greater issue than that. In my opinion, something is irretrievably lost when an adult looks me straight in
