[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I never understood this. If you're able to find other people that you prefer than who you're with, then what's the point of wasting everyone's time? I read these threads of how people miss their ex-APs so much and it's honestly hurtful to even read and I can't imagine what their spouses would think.

I just need this explained to me. [/quote]

I'm sure after 18 pages the obvious has been stated multiple times. But here you go:

1. A divorce is expensive. Both parties end up financially worse off.
2. People don't want to share holidays and weekends
3. Divorce is a huge hassle.
4. Divorce is not good for kids
5. Monogamy is not natural.[/quote]

The thing is except for #4, all of the other reasons are selfish unless you’ve discussed it with your wife first and agreed to stay in marriage.  
So the reason why men don’t leave their wives is due to selfishness plain and simple.  It’s not that difficult.[/quote]

Newsflash. Most people are selfish.  It doesn’t seem unreasonable to NOT want to move, destroy your family and shuttle kids back and forth between two houses until they leave for college.  [/quote]
