I briefly mentioned this in another post but felt it deserved it's own thread.

I'm always curious about that, too.

Evidently some people are capable of being in love with more than one person at a time. We should expect humans to have evolved behaviors that cause less-than-perfect monogamy, seeing as there is some probability that this causes their reproductive output to increase. Even among the most monogamous species of all -- song birds -- both males and females occasionally sneak off and mate with a neighboring birds.
My H and I have grown apart due to work schedules, kids and such
Here is my 2cents..
I love my H and I am in love with my AP. My H is a good man, but lacks a certain something. My M is good, for the most part, but obviously it was lacking something in order for me to get involved with AP in the first place

Tangled, you just hit the nail on the head....I am happier now at home because of AP...
my xAP always used to tell me: "I love my wife more than I love you" and "we have a good sex life" and "we have a very good marriage" and one time, when we were fighting and I asked, he replied: "Indeed, I don't need you to be happy, I have a great marriage."
?????
Then WHY come to me all the time????? Thinking I will be stupid enough to have sex with him again??? How stupid can a person be to say all that stuff and still think that another woman will have sex with him???
Tangledmess spoke for me too.
I became vulnerable to having A through deficits in the marraige. I have worked hard and continue to work hard to gain ground in my marriage. But my H doesn't meet all my needs. The A was emotional for years, then when it became a PA I had to contend with the attraction of being with my AP. He is a different lover than my H, totally different which creates a new framework of desire/need because my H cannot be that style of lover. So my AP fills niches of need not met by my H.

He's really not stupid at all. He has a great s*x life at home with his W, a good M and a wonderful woman on the side servicing him. He's telling you the truth and YOU still allow him to have s*x with you.
My POV maynot be of any help but I will chimw in anywho. My M is a routine M . Our 2 kids are adults and have their own settled lives with babies.My H is busy with his life -- works as a plumber with business going down these days but he hasnt gone nuts or grumpy.He is quite a laid back guy.So,its not that bad but no excitement or anything anymore.
Hi Mom, I am NOT allowing him to have sex with him. I don't.
He just comes by every now and then to give it another try (neighbor)
