[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Jesus, I needed this article today. I am exactly the woman described. I just rekindled a relationship with an ex via text and it is pretty intense. It has really helped give me a jolt of joy from the otherwise constant resentment and anger I feel towards my husband.

I am trying to tread lightly because the ex is desperate to see me. It is a long distance situation and he wants us to meet up for a quick trip. I am 75% ready to go for it. I think it will help sustain me in my marriage. [/quote]

Yes, it will sustain you in your marriage ... until you get caught (you will), and then it all blows up in your face... How about addressing why you have resentment and anger and then trying to fix what you have and made a commitment to?[/quote]

NP if you read the article instead of resorting to your faux puritanical outrage , you'd know that research shows women who are on affairs have done exactly what you're suggesting ,only to see things stay the same . Nobody has any lesson to take from you [/quote]

That's not really what the article says about research. It says that there was a sociologist who offered the opinion that "A lot of women have tried to address these problems and have faced a lot of stubbornness from husbands." That same sociologist says that "what social scientists are finding now is that there is a correlation between equal division of labor and better sex." However, studies on the division of labor and sex are contradictory at best:  "Results show that both husbands and wives in couples with more traditional housework arrangements report higher sexual frequency, suggesting the importance of gender display rather than marital exchange for sex between heterosexual married partners."

Whatever the merits of "choreplay," I don't think the article reliably supports the idea that these cheating women have necessarily tried very hard to address the causes of their resentment. Some have and some have not. PP should try to address the resentment before chasing the easier excitement of an affair.
