In the clip, Molly speaks directly to camera as she began: ‘You found out your partner cheated. Now what?
‘I’m a psychologist. Here are my top three do’s and don’ts.’
Launching into her recommendations, the expert said: ‘One, do not tell your entire contact list.
‘Trust me, if you decide to reconcile, it will be 10 times much harder if everyone is in the know.
‘Do tell one or two trusted people and choose your support team wisely.
‘It’s important to have people in your corner who will put your needs first, not their own opinions.’
Next up, Molly warned against ‘interacting with the outside partner.’
‘As tempting as it may be, it’s unlikely to be productive and probably will cause more chaos.’
Instead, she urged: ‘Do establish boundaries with the outside partner.
‘Ask your significant other to end the relationship and stop all communication with them.’
Finally on her list, the psychologist explained: ‘Do not ask for detailed information that will serve no purpose but to torture you.
‘Some of the most common questions like this are: “What positions did they use? What were their body parts like? Where did you meet? What did you talk about?”

‘Information like this will only hurt you.’
She suggested that instead the heartbroken party should ask more ‘meaningful questions.’
These include: ‘Who is it? Is it over? How long did it last? Was protection used every time?’
