It’s weird you think is the only way out.

Were you guys sexually molested as kids?

NP I've never once in all my years on dcum called anyone an idiot. Take a bow pp, you're an idiot! Won't acknowledge the 2nd comment you made, but if you didn't read the bold above, read it! A physically and emotionally abusive spouse IS NOT ENTITLED TO RESPECT OR DIGNITY FROM THEIR ABUSED SPOUSE.

Disagree. Leaving the marriage or working on it with specialists can be justified, not cheating.

It really depends. There are some life circumstances in which divorce won't work. Marriage is not all about sex.

The fact you’re cheating means it’’s not something your spouse would agree to. In this case, the spouse has a right to determine whether it’s better to stay in the marriage or not if you’ve gone outside your marriage. If marriage isn’t all about sex, it’s definitely about trust. So no, cheating is never justified.

Marriage is also not always about trust. You must think everyone's marriage is a storybook marriage built and love and trust. Not.

What do you mean, like it’s also about financial security?

I would not say that...it does not mean financial security...it does mean finances are entangled though...that does not necessarily mean people who are married are financially secure. It does mean taking on debt of another person, not being able to buy and sell property without the consent of another person, it could mean being dependent on another person financially, etc. Many people have two-income households and are equal financial partners. I would say it is mostly a financial partnership...as it has been most of human history historically. It is a legal entanglement. It does NOT mean financial security... you can be very financially insecure in marriage.

Yes that is all true, but there are a lot of divorce laws to deal with that.

Your response does not make sense.
