Would you or could you possibly forgive a cheating spouse? Why or why not??
Is there hope after infidelity?
Do you think SAHM's are more likely to forgive a cheating husband then WOHM's due to financial dependence/independence?

How could it possibly hurt the kids if the other spouse doesn't care? Why would the kids even know about it? How do you know there's another spouse, and how do you know that that spouse cares about infidelity the way you and I do? What if nobody really is hurt?
Yes, you most certainly did imply that you were hurt by SM's opinion. You complained about it, compared it to apologizing for rape to a rape victim, and sighed and whined when your silly analogies were noticed. You very much played the injured party.
I said that adultery is the breaking of an agreement between two people. If they don't *have* a fidelity agreement in the first place, then no one is hurt. I'm sure you'll go back and quote every last thing I said over the past few days and point out one instance where I forgot that disclaimer. But it's obvious I'm talking about adultery not causing hurt when, um, it doesn't. That's been my point the entire time.
But go ahead. Sigh like a 120-year-old woman with osteoporosis and then shuffle off to find the incriminating quote.
No. I'm open to other ideas. I have yet to have mine shot down other than by people saying it's not always that way but they don't come up with scenarios that disprove what I've said.
I have given my reasons for thinking the way I do. A cheating spouse is untrustworthy. A cheating spouse does not consider his spouse (disrespect). A cheating spouse doesn't care who he hurts (evindenced by risks taken with his family's health).
Why do you think a cheating spouse is trustworthy? Why do you think cheating is not inconsiderate of your spouse? Why do you think it's ok to take health risks with your family without so much as their consent?
