Men practicing Tiger Woods Syndrome  use physical attraction and charm to establish a new romance. Once the liason loses it's freshness, these mirage men often find themselves stuck with a stranger they don't even like as a friend, much less a wife or cohabitant. Then the old life or love  they left behind in Stage 3 of the Syndrome starts to look better and better.

CSI Miami star Eddie Cibrian discovered this truth when he began hooking up with country music legend LeAnn Rimes and bartender  Scheana  Marie Jancan and destroyed his 8 year marriage to Brandi Glanville.  After a failed attempt at reconciliation with Brandi in April 2009, Eddie fully committed to LeAnn. But now, as finalizing the divorce and moving in permanently with LeAnn became a reality, the Star reports that Eddie has been cheating on Leann with... you guessed it, his estranged wife Brandi!
