Watch/Read More

Why do emotional affairs happen?

It happens way more than you think.

Up to 60 percent of all couples will deal with at least one form of infidelity over their marriage’s lifespan. An additional 20 percent of married couples deal with emotional infidelity above the statistics for physical infidelity.

According to the American Association of Marriage and Family Therapy, about 35 percent of wives and 45 percent of husbands report having emotional affairs, while 22 percent of men and 13 percent of women — both married and unmarried — have cheated in their lifetimes.

We could say that these figures are conservative because of course, not everyone admits that their partner cheated or that they themselves betrayed their partner.

Caretakers were monitoring Rex and worked closely with the Oklahoma City Zoo's veterinary care team to develop a daily geriatric care and treatment program for Rex. Recently, the caretakers saw a decline in Rex's physical condition, including a significant reduction in his mobility, increased stiffness and discomfort in his legs and feet, as well as difficulty moving around some of the more uneven terrain in his habitat.
