Joel Stein's Greatest Mistake

Time magazine funnyman and true American original Joel Stein has revealed at last Which Mistake Taught Him the Most. Spoiler: his answer is about Joel Stein's sex life.
His answer: "Making my wife feel insecure by flirting. It seemed so small a betrayal. But marriage is made up of millions of tiny acts of bravery, and any one failure can cause a crack that could get bad. Which is too bad, because flirting is fun. Then again, sex with new people is fun, so I get that fun shouldn't be the main determining factor for your actions."
