[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love how most of the stories by women who have cheated place the blame on their husband.  It's either they weren't attentive or caring or whatever.  That's NOT A GOOD ENOUGH REASON TO CHEAT.  If a husband says that EVERY SINGLE FUCKING WOMEN would say "Well, we should have talked about it and sought help.  It's still the husband's fault."

Love the men hating people on these boards.  It's laughable.[/quote]

You can read, right?  Try again.  That's not what you're seeing.  You WANT to see that so you can rant against women.  The women said what motivated them.  That doesn't mean they're saying it was right.[/quote]

Not the PP, but the point - and it's a valid one - is that a man sharing his story of infidelity would not receive a sympathetic audience. In my opinion, the stories of cheating are probably VERY similar between men and women, but the response from DCUM is always very different. [/quote]

You don't know that, though.  If someone started a post saying "Men, share your cheating stories" and men said what the women are saying -- basically, my marriage wasn't very good, I handled it wrong and cheated, but I'm glad I got out of the marriage though I'm sorry for doing that to my DW who didn't deserve it, then they wouldn't be flamed any more than the women have been.  Try it and see what happens.
But men tend not to say that stuff.  They tend to say stuff like "my wife was a bitch".  And then, yeah, they get flamed. 
There's one guy (at least I hope it's just one) who hangs around DCUM looking for excuses to rant on women.  He's getting close to the manifesto level.  He's visited this thread repeatedly.[/quote]

I hope you're right. I cheated on my wife, and while it wasn't because she is a bitch, I'm very careful what I say about it here, which is unfortunate since we resolved a lot, both got professional help, and are in a much better relationship.

What I will say is that no matter if you're a man or woman, violating a spouse's trust takes a huge, painful toll on the cheater as well as the spouse. [/quote]

Glad it worked out, and I'm sure it took a TON of work.  I couldn't stay married if my DH cheated.  I'm reticent to trust as it is, so that would be too hard to overcome.  Also I would view him differently.  (And I expect he couldn't stay married to me if I did.)[/quote]
