[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP  You didn't want to lose your husband but you had an affair.  Have you ever heard the phrase "playing with fire"?  If you don't want to lose you your husband, keep your pants zipped.  Cheating is a cowardly act.  Have the guts to leave your marriage or have enough respect for your spouse to remain faithful.

Did you start this thread so you could deliver this rebuke? I think maybe you did. I think maybe you were dying to lecture and condescend to someone, so you began this thread hoping for the response you eventually got so that you could unleash this post that you wrote and rewrote for, what, a week?[/quote]

Regardless of her intent, she is correct. I'm sure it's painful if you have had an affair to know you did something SO WRONG. Those who have affairs and try to rationalize them by saying that monogamy is "untenable" are full of it. Get a divorce if you think that. Those that say "I want it both ways" are getting what they want at the expense of crushing pain for their spouse and kids. It's so incredibly selfish. I understand the need for excitement, I've been married for 22 yrs (with not the best sex life) but I hope I would never do anything to hurt my DH and kids.[/quote]
