I've been married 27 years to the Col and I have never cheated on him. SB is right. Marriage is a sacred vow you make to each other before God. Not only is she dying of cancer she has the pain of being betrayed and IMO that pain is just as bad as the pain she has from the cancer.




For me, it'll be 37 years in August that I've been married. I would never defile my marriage by cheating nor would I risk the pain and breach of trust that both my wife and kids would experience if I did.

I think that some posters disparage standards to avoid having to comply with those they can't meet.
