Nope, not miserable at all. Happily married for nearly twenty years. Very active sex life. Financially stable. Great kids. Great life.

And my peer group seems happy as well. None of our close friends have divorced. I guess that's why I'm stunned to read so many threads on affairs. I just don't get it. It's nothing I can relate to. Like I said before, I was fanning the flames to see what people would post. I honestly couldn't care less if people have affairs...it doesn't impact me at all. And I freely admit that I was wrong...apparently society doesn't think that cheating is wrong. Apparently it's common and acceptable.

So, you guys are right, and I'm wrong.

So if cheaters aren't as bad as rapists, how bad are they? Worse than a robber? What about worse than someone who steals food because he's hungry? Worse than the mom in the General Parenting forum who shunned a family from a neighborhood play date because the kid has special needs? Worse than someone who cheats on their taxes?

Honestly, I couldn't care less. People can cheat all they want since it has zero impact on me. Just flaming the fires to see what folks think. And candidly, I'm a bit surprised how blasé everyone seems to be about this. I had no clue there were so many miserable people in the DMV. It's sad.

Honestly, based on some of your posts, you seem to be pretty miserable yourself.
