[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have read that female infidelity is much more likely to result in divorce than male infidelity. I am sure there are a number of reasons for this, some economic. But I also suspect this is something men can't get over. Will be interested to see the replies,to your question OP.[/quote]

It is pretty interesting. If I had to offer a theory, it's that most women make a very, very big deal about how sex is sacred, how it's so intimate, and how they could never imagine having sex with someone who they aren't absolutely in love with (and yes, I know this is largely horseshit).

Meanwhile, guys pretty much admit they'd fuck a pie if it was warm.

So when women cheat, men usually figure it's about more than just sex. [/quote]

I feel pretty much the exact opposite. I am a woman, and I speculate that it's easier for a man to get over the emotional component of an affair than the sexual one. I had an affair when I was married to my first husband. We sought therapy and attempted to reconcile for over a year. In therapy, we discussed emotional needs and all the problems that lead up to the affair. My affair partner filled an emotional void in my life, but my husband didn't care about that so much. What bothered him the most and what he could never move past was the fact that I had had sex with another man. He flat-out said it.  [/quote]
