[quote=Anonymous]Both parties are to blame, but in my mind, not exactly for the reasons everyone else has listed.

It takes two to run a marriage. Yes, there are cheaters who just do it for the thrill. That being said, there are also the inside partners who freeze out a marriage, which to me is just as bad as cheating, for their own reasons/ ends.

I'm not here to pass judgement, or pick sides, or any of it. I wasn't in the relationship or did I see what went on behind closed doors. I know plenty of "victims" who have chosen that path, thinking it will gain them maximum hand in the end.

If you end a marriage because your partner cheated, then you are not a victim. You escaped a bullet. But you don't get extra pats on the head for doing what is best for you. That's your choice. I've had friends leave, some stay. These are life choices that affect no ones other than you.  And there's no extra bones for the victim in that situation, regardless of outcome.

Now, I don't think this way in terms of abuse. That's the one place where sides are fair, warranted, and preferential. [/quote]
