    What the corpus says

    The throughline across every conversation that touches this idea.

    Disconnection, not infidelity, is the primary cause of marriage failures, developing slowly before manifesting in major issues.
    Sexton argues that enduring an unhappy marriage is not a success, but a form of endurance, challenging conventional views.
    56% of marriages end in divorce, yet 84% of those individuals remarry within five years, indicating a persistent belief in marriage.
    Infidelity often arises from impulse rather than a lack of love, complicating the narrative around cheating.
    Sexton suggests using psilocybin in controlled settings for divorcing couples to foster empathy and resolve conflicts.
