    not making a judgment but just asking a question - is it possible that being faithful to one person is an unreasonable expectation? I mean are animals meant to mate with only one other? I totally get that the expectation for being faithful is out of respct for your partner but when over 50% of marriages fail is it possible that the expectation has outlived it's usefulness? I'm not married so I've never been in the situation of cheating on a married partner - I'd like to think I would have enough strength to not to - but hard to say for sure until you are put in that situation. When partners are often apart, like athletes, entertainers, etc. shouldn't there be even less expectation of faithfulness if you can't be together for long periods?

    Dr. Oz did a segment on this topic yesterday. An interesting comment was that there might be a cheating gene!

    unrelated to dr. oz: 50% of marriages end in divorce because 49% couples shouldn't have gotten married in the first place.

    This may be a stupid post as I've never been married but:

    I think another reason why there are so many divorces is that people simply don't take marriage seriously...I think people just enter marriage assuming that "Hey, if it doesn't work out...I'll just get divorced." Which in my opinion should definitely not be a thought when getting married. If two people aren't willing to go above and beyond to make a marriage work, then they shouldn't sign the papers and enter the deal.

    I understand sometimes it truly was the wrong decision and divorce happens...but I think there is a fine line between an honestly not working marriage and two people who just aren't willing to try hard enough.

    Again, that is just the opinion of someone who has never been married, but witnessed some divorces..

    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    excellent advice!


    the initial attraction between my husband and myself was pure lust. however, we dated off and on for 5 years before marriage....and in that time became the best of friends too. it has only deepened with time, and has most definitely served us well thru all the trials and tribulations of life in general, and together.

    Watched a good movie last night that touches on this
    Interviews with Hideous Men


    and my 2 cents
    respect is more important than love.

    Hmmm.. I don't get it..?

    I respect a "Do Not Enter" sign but that doesn't mean I'm happy about it..

    i was just going off what decides2dream said about lust. kinda

    i found i can love somebody but later on down the road if i can't respect him(because of his actions) then the love goes right out the door. that's just me thou.

    If anyone is feeling the urge to cheat, then atleast have the decency to get out of the relationship...

    I dont think they realise how much it fucks the other person up.

    but how much of it is the thrill of getting caught?
    (why they don't get out of the relationship first)
