[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Religion, sanctity of marriage, family of origin and values.  I see drastically different views.  It's easy to see why somebody that thinks it is 'no big deal' would never be able to understand somebody that requires 'no lies and honesty' in a marriage. Going behind a spouse's back and outright lying to their face is very serious and the lack of moral code/character for somebody to do that is not something I could accept in somebody I pledged to love, respect and cherish. No thanks.[/quote]

Marriage is long. The theory or idea of it is drastically different than the lived reality of it. Sometimes you go through a dark time and make bad choices.

[b]Is marriage then, only for those who have easy lifes or no mental illnesses?[/b]

I am the OP. My husband and I were living a pretty sexless life for a few years because of me. I think because of that when I found out he was cheating, I wasn't surprised. [/quote]

:lol:  :lol: Oh no, no, no. You don't get to twist this around and go off on a different tangent.  Change the title of your thread to  -  "DH with mental illness and hard life had affair but I am ok with it because of my own issues"  if you want to vent and have sympathetic audience.

[b]The marriage vows do say - ...for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death do us part...etc.[/b]

A lot of people don't use the traditional marriage vows anymore. Almost no one whose wedding I went to did--we wrote our own. None of us are religious at all, though.[/quote]
