[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m not looking for affirmation. It’s an anonymous board. I was simply trying to gauge how many people in the US are suffering from trauma to the point where they can’t live a virtuous monogamous life. I guess DCUM isn’t the best place. It was just a reflection after seeing how hard women and men had it in the past trying to start a life here that it seems odd we have people like Elon Musk who have everything and just have affair after affair. It really wasn’t anything related to me. I didn’t ask how much better I was than anyone. If anything I feel I fall short of my more perfect family members. I just wasn’t aware how much trauma others went through till I became an adult. You are right I was naive. But it is a symptom of a greater cutural failing if so many of our children are growing up in broken homes and we can’t seem to rise above the trauma ourselves as a society. [/quote]

Musk is an example of a man is as faithful as his options.  Women will bang because he’s rich, just like Bezos and every Hollywood actor and famous musician...

So Bill Gates is not faithful and Mark Z, Obama?[/quote]

Obama was not.  They had very well-documented marital problems.  I would bet $100 infidelity was involved in those years (pre-public office).[/quote]

Everybody has marital problems, not everybody cheats... but leave O out of it. Mark Z/Bill Gates... bunks your logic[/quote]

Cheating was our marital problem which is crazy.  We were best friends.  We get along great, always laughing.  We had a great, frequent sex life (several times per week).  We both stayed very fit and took care of ourselves.  We saw eye to eye on everything—$, education, parenting, etc.  We had no financial issues and both contributed to work and home life.  He cheated for variety and issues with his self.  It is often the result of something inside one person.  It’s a fallacy that cheating can’t happen in a good marriage.  It makes people feel safer to think so.[/quote]
