    Infidelity is murky territory. Does a one-night stand at a bachelor party count? How about an emotional entanglement with a close friend that doesn't involve anything physical? Psychologists and relationship experts have spent years studying the science of infidelity, turning up surprising insights into what different couples consider cheating, how they react to cheating, and how they bounce back after someone strays. We looked into some of that research and pulled out the most compelling results. Read on to see what we found and how you can apply these findings to your own relationship.

     A new study published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology posits there's a good chance you can tell if someone is rich or poor just by looking at them. The relationship between well-being and social class has been demonstrated by previous research, R. Thora Bjornsdottir, a graduate student at the University of Toronto and co-author of the study, tells CNBC Make It. In general, people with money tend to live happier, less anxious lives compared to those struggling to make ends meet.

    When you are dating unsuccessfully it can feel like you're repeating the same mistakes over and over again. Humans are creatures of habit, and out of a subconscious desire to re-live and correct the issues from our past, we may seek out the same sort of partners and find ourselves in a destructive cycle. Some people may do this because they have an unhealthy attachment style, which is the way they form bonds and connect to others. One style is called "avoidant attachment," according to psychotherapist Allison Abrams. She told Business Insider that our experiences in childhood shape our style of attachment, which then becomes the template for how we behave in future relationships. "Insecure attachment styles, such as avoidant attachment, usually stem from some sort...

    There comes a point in a lot of people's lives when they notice their body isn't bouncing back with the same youthful elasticity with which it once did. Dark circles under our eyes, aches and pains where there once were none and abdominal fat - our bodies have their ways of telling us lifestyle has outstripped luck. Fitness and nutrition expert Louise Parker agrees, saying I'd say most clients who are overweight are largely concerned about fat in the abdominal area as it’s what they physically see and feel.

The findings shed light on a long standing public health mystery. Over the last 40 years, official statistics show the number of calories people consume has dropped however, the population has continued to gain weight.
