This guide offers a low‑shame, practical self‑check to help you notice how attachment tendencies can influence boundary drift or infidelity risk.
Quick answer: Secure attachment is associated with a lower risk of infidelity, but the protective effect is modest and context-dependent — it typically reduces risk by a few percentage points on average rather than eliminating it.
