Infidelity
“What’s with polygraph tests to verify infidelity in marriage?”
What is your opinion of polygraph tests to verify infidelity in marriage if both partners are willing to take the test for honesty?
Truth is, a lie detector test isn’t even admissible as evidence in court. It measures a person’s physiological response, which isn’t necessarily an indicator of deception. Polygraph tests aren’t accurate and can be easily manipulated.

That aside, what even happened in your marriage that you have to resort to a polygraph test to verify infidelity? Is it that bad? I mean, instead of trying to prove who’s a bigger liar by undergoing a lie detector test, why not just go for a divorce?
Because let’s say you were able to prove your partner was lying with the help of the polygraph test, then what? Do you think you can still fix your marriage and return to being loving partners after the test? I don’t think so. It’s just going to sow resentment, and you’re just going to break up anyway.
So, if your marriage is that toxic, why not save yourselves the trouble of going through a lie detector test and just leave?
