Many individual stories about infidelity are publicized through mass media or social media. These publicized stories about infidelity draw many people's attention. Both the person whose story is known to general public and people who are exposed to the stories may suffer from diverse types of psychological damage.
Anyone can experience infidelity cases during their life directly or indirectly, getting involved in infidelity themselves or being influenced by infidelity of people who are close to them. Such experiences can cause crisis situations in people involved, with great adverse effects on self and others. People who are exposed to infidelity cases even remotely are also under the influence of adverse effects of damaging their psychology and aggravating existing wounds and stress.
People who become interested in stories of infidelity of people they don't even know are also negatively affected by the operation of emotional assimilation. They may become to think, feel, and express the experience as if it happened to themselves. As such indirect experiences are repeated and continued, their psychology may begin to develop problems in spite of themselves.
People who produce dramatic and sensational contents on infidelity cases in social media and mass media can be considered to be causing psychological pathologies in general public. It is a pity that neither those who produce harmful contents nor those who expose themselves to them do not realize the magnitude of both individual and social problems. Many people who produce such contents consciously focus on selfish gains and financial profits neglecting the damage they may inflict on innocent people. The more dramatic and sensational, the more psychological damage and the more gain and profit. When someone produce and disseminate contents on infidelity knowing their adverse effects, it must be considered as a crime.
