Gwyneth Paltrow keeps trying to fool folks into thinking she’s all nice and forgiving and stuff… She recently did an interview with Refinery29 while promoting her new movie Thanks For Sharing, which all about her being in a relationship with a man (played by Mark Ruffalo) who has a sex addiction. Check out some excerpts that delve into how Gwyn would deal with a cheating hubby or someone with sex addiction:

Speaking to the movie, do you think you could you stay in a relationship with a sex addict?

“I’m an extremely open-minded person, so I think if it was something I knew I was getting myself into, I wouldn’t let it deter me from exploring the relationship.”

What about the majority of women? How do you think other women might handle it?

“I think it would be hard for me to be one of those wives who finds out there’s been something going on behind my back twenty years in. I’d imagine you’d begin to question your life. It would definitely make things harder, but I believe that if there’s authenticity and honesty right off the bat, things will be okay.”

Cheating and sex addiction are similar, but still very different. Could you stay with someone who cheated?

“I think that if the idea of being committed to someone is important to you, you begin to value certain parts of your social life over another. No couple is the same, and as such, every couple takes on different challenges. I would like to think that I would be forgiving and/or forgiven, but I can’t give an honest answer as I haven’t really experienced that.”

Do you believe her?? How would you answer these questions if you were faced with them?
