I only know people through work. Outside of that I don’t know of anyone. |
True. And they hope nobody they know ever sees her Humiliation.

| Generalize much? What does attractive mean? Even high level escorts say that many men hire them not necessarily for sex, but for someone to talk to. |
Word.

+1 and, yes, please elaborate on OM. I'm tired of the sexist BS. Are the men hotter than their husbands or just richer? |
| I was once the OW ( not proud of it ) I once asked him how and why he started cheating. He said he thinks he just wanted someone to talk to. A year into the marriage he realized he made a mistake. She hid a lot of mental health stuff from him. |
Isn’t that the storyline on that sweet magnolia show? |
| The people that I know have done it, it’s been about the connection and not what they looked like. There was a connection in their own relationship missing that they got from the other person. |
Well he should have divorced instead of f@cking you. Remember a cheater lies to everyone. They lie to the OW just as much (if not more than) the wife. I’d take what he told you with a grain of salt. Most likely BS to get in your pants and feel sorry for him. |

We only know of two couples, I don't think the trope plays out in the cases we know of.
1. Husband cheated on the wife after first baby and through second pregnancy and toddler stage. Wife is successful, pretty enough, very nice woman, but she gained a lot of weight in the past 10 years, maybe 100lbs. OW was 10 years younger than the husband and stunning, very slender, successful for her early career stage, and they met in a running group. The couple decided to try and work it out but all the dirty laundry got aired in our social circle and they don't seem happy now. I don't know if he cheated again. 2. Husband cheated with his former grad student, wife left him after kids went to college, he married the OW, she is 30 years younger but honestly nothing special looks-wise. She is pleasant enough but they are social pariahs and don't understand why 'no one invites them to anything'.

| The couple I know is pretty darn dysfunctional. I know the story because we've been friends for years, but on Facebook it's oh my hubby is my everything, my wife is my best friend, we're so lucky look at is drinking daquiris n Maui aren't we beautiful people. I think they're just addicted to their own drama. |
What is it about running groups and affairs!! I know multiple people that have had affairs within their running groups. |
Endorphins + Sweat + Pheremones + Shared Joy = Delusional Delight? |
They both cheat? |
I’ve got no skin in this game either but your post sounded bitter. Like who cares if they cheated with someone better looking. Cheating sucks and so you decide to focus on disproving what some cheated on spouse may say about OW looks? What’s the overall point you’re trying to make if you don’t have a skin in this game? It’s like at work, some people lose the big picture when they get mired in a small detail. |
