[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP here. I apologize for my tone above. Thank you for discussing this issue with me. I appreciate sharing different points of view, and I always want to learn more.

You yourself may be a personality type that is fine with things. Because of my unique outsider/insider status in this kind of community, everyone comes and talks to me very honestly, saying what they can't say to others in their culture, and while there are some who are fine with cheating, and would be that way in any culture, there are a majority who are unhappy. And they feel powerless to change things. I get exasperated when I see it's actually the rare woman who has true power and is actually happy with her relationship, instead of merely resigned.

I know we all have our weaknesses and that cheating is just part of being human, but the costs can be high no matter how you look at it.[/quote]

Er...you clearly have an unusual amount of highly personal anger directed at marital expectations that are unlike your own.  I am going to be charitable and assume that this has everything to do with your prior experiences, and nothing with the point I'm trying to make. Don't at all get the point about soap operas, seeing as I work full-time at a high-prestige job and make slightly more money than DH.

Look.  Your vision of marriage is that of complete fusion into each other in every possible sense.  That's fine. Have it your way. Don't pretend it's the only acceptable way, or that there is no happiness, honesty or dignity found elsewhere. I could tell you how this sort of marriage works but you seem entrenched in your own views.[/quote]
