[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Cheating is justified if one party becomes much more attractive over the course of the relationship/marriage. That could result from the wife getting really fat after kids, which is not what the husband married.

Less often two people are in a starter marriage. They get married out of college, then the husband goes to law school. He makes really good connections and his career takes off. Women who would have never looked twice now throw themselves at him. Think of it as like an American soccer player who starts off with DC United. He develops beyond all expectations and now Barcelona and Man City are sniffing around. Is he really supposed to say “sorry, I’m committed to…DC UNITED.”!? Obviously that’s ridiculous. He’ll just stagnate if he stays in a place beneath him. He needs to move on with a woman who looks like a successful on the rise BigLaw attorney’s wife.[/quote]

Oh wow, my close friend at my law firm is basically this. Total nerd in law school, dating his college sweet heart the whole time, only girl he ever slept with. Once he started making money, women starting approaching him and he was reckless. I don't think he knew how to process the attention.

I am not justifying his cheating BTW. I have no idea what his wife is like in the bedroom, whether they had a sex life, etc. They ended up divorced.[/quote]
