[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The thread about comfort level with DH's female friends got me thinking.  There is a special place in hell for women who cheat with married men with young kids.  I'm not excusing the husbands' behavior; they are unquestionably responsible, but there are two players in every affair.  Maybe a 20 year old girl gets some kind of pass for being clueless about what new parenthood (or marriage or adulthood) is like.  But holy heck, ladies, how about a little solidarity with our fellow moms?  You may have your own baggage to deal with, but if you're even close to a boundary with a married recent father, couldn't you just pause for a minute to remember yourself as a new mom, have some empathy for his wife, and not make her already challenging few years complete misery?[/quote]

There are 3 players. The wife usually has some play in the affair as well and there are usually issues in the marriage. The husband shouldn't cheat, but rarely is the marriage without issues and RARELY is the wife an innocent party in the marital issues. [/quote]

Statistically, cheating is a crime of opportunity and has nothing to do with the state of the marriage.

Please do the research before posting outdated stereotypes. And sure, all marriages - even happy ones - have issues. However, that is not what causes cheating. If it did, both partners would be cheaters. [/quote]
You're wrong, there's another thread where someone posted a Newseek article on a study that rebukes that [/quote]

Very true... Once you weed out the alcoholics, drug addict, bipolar disorder, depression, anxiety disorder, 1in6 men that were sexually abused, 1 in3 women that were sexually abused, the physically and emotionally abused, and all the other untreated mental disorders, job loss, disabilities, cancer... That leaves you with completely psysically and mentally heLthy people that are unhappily married. [/quote]
