[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Would you date someone who admitted to a failed marriage due to cheating? This is someone who is good-looking with a good career and appears to be a good parent. But loss of love/X led to cheating. Not sure if this is worth exploring further. [/quote]

I don’t judge as harshly as I did when I was younger, having an affair after 25 years of marriage where the previous eight had no warmth or affection is a lot different than sleeping with an Applebee’s hostess when your wife is on bedrest.

I’d have to ask more questions about what the relationship was like in the years leading up to his cheating, his cheating could’ve been an absolute relief to his wife, maybe she didn’t have the courage to end the relationship without citing some major offense, she could have purposely withheld affection and emotional intimacy to isolate and drive him away. Ask more questions then make the call. [/quote]

I also don’t judge as harshly but I wouldn’t invite that kind of dysfunction into MY life.  He may have suffered through years of unhappiness and only stayed for the kids or something, OR he was banging the Applebees hostess.  The problem is that there’s no way for you to know what happened except from him, and he’s a proven liar.[/quote]
