QotD: Cheating
Posted August 14th, 2003 @ 07:46pm by Erik J. Barzeski
Question: If your spouse cheated on you, what would you do?
My Answer: I'd like to say I'd leave her immediately, but frankly, I know I probably couldn't. If I'm married, then I'm committed, and if she's cheated, she's either scum (I'd leave her) and that act would open my eyes, or she and I have somehow gotten off-track and I'd have to work to correct that. Since I would hope I wouldn't be marrying scum, it's most likely the latter. However, I can say with a fair amount of certainty that if she cheated a second time, that'd be that, and I can also say I wouldn't blame her for dumping me if I cheated (never have, never will, so this isn't something about which I worry).

If my love isn't enough to stop a "minor indiscresion", then I probably shouldn't be with her, no matter how much I think I should be.
