[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think some people justify the affair as being better than the alternative - a divorce that a spouse would not want, that would be uprooting/damaging to the children, and create lifestyle implications via needing to run two separate households. I do think some spouses know and choose to look the other way because of the above. It’s a terrible position to put your spouse in. [/quote]

The vast majority of men have nothing wrong.  They aren't justifying not getting a divorce.  Divorce isn't even on the radar or a thought.

Women often do this, but many of them are looking for exit affairs.  So if they divorce they go right into someone else's household and get on their financial dole.[/quote]

I don’t think the vast majority of men are cheating compartmentalizing asses. Certainly a percentage, but not all. The others are probably telling themselves something is missing in their marriage. They aren’t actively seeking an affair partner, but then they develop an interest in someone which turns into more, and bam- affair territory. They feel bad about it but continue due to the reasons outlined above. I would say most cheating women fall into this category and a significant portion of cheating men.[/quote]
