well, of course you participated in damaging marriages if you were having sex with married folks. what makes you think you did not?
No, Panda is saying that IF NOT FOR HER HUSBAND, that is the likely path she would have followed. He helped her see how detrimental that would have been. And that kept her off that path.
There is only a 3% chance that two people who got together from an affair that the relationship will last. SO pretty small chance of it working. Second marriages have a higher divorce rate to begin with so throw in an affair and yikes even riskier....
Once the excitement, heat, etc. wears off not much left..except shame and regret I think.
As I suspected my wife is now in an official relationship with the OM two weeks after divorce, though she's been keeping things EA for two years. This after cutting all ties with friends and family to live in the affair fog and suffer in loneliness together.
And even though she thought she was slick her friends and both their families know she was cheating on me and he was messing around with a married woman because she posted how f*cking in love she was with that @$$ all over facebook and myspace.
I hated the OM at first but now I can sit back and laugh knowing the perfect image he cast of himself being better than me will dissolve over time and leave her the arrogant jerk all her friends are warning her about. And the bait & switch will happen again!
At this point I see the BS and WS as the tortoise and the hare. The WS or hare grows overly confident and full of themselves, thinks of the BS with so much contempt that they quit working on the relationship to cheat or leave because they think they deserve more. The WS does not move forwards and improve on their character so they're not much different after. The BS or tortoise realizes after betrayal that they have a lot of work on themselves to make up for and end up more stable, if they can get over the hurt at some point. I know a betrayed partners that ended up better people years after the breakup and saw how the other half lived. It's not unusual to see your ex still doing more of the same and regretting their decisions whether it be leaving an entire family or passing up good men and women for sex and a high fast lifestyle.
I remember seeing a cartoon, years ago. And older man -dressed very well- is with a glamorous young woman. The young woman says: "And I suppose your wife doesn't understand you?"
The older man says: "On the contrary, my dear. I find that my wife understands me all too well!"
no..i didnt have sex with any married men....i was only what...15 or so when my husband and i started living together, and by 18 i had a baby....
i just rebelled and that was my go to...i wouldnt have tried to have a "normal" relationship. it is???, was?? the way im hard wired.
its ok...i havent done what you think i have done. i kept my draws up, my dress down, and my legs crossed.
My husband did this for me too. I was too promiscuous before I was married. He tamed this wild vixen and now I can't imagine having sex with anyone but him.
Sometimes a decent man can turn a bad girl into a good wife.
My husband told the OW all the time that he still loved me, wanted to work things out with me and their relationship wasn't anything serious....she told me herself he said these things to her and that she didn't believe him b/c "they were so madly in love" with each other...
*rolls eyes*
Sounds like the same lie my stbxh told me last week after almost a yr with this 21yr. Old which he left with for a month in half in march , i found out about the ow in feb. , claims he told her that he came to realization ..yea right any how he said that she was angry when he picked up his things long story short he was locked up for a day on may 22 aint that a ***** she put a order of protection on him..lol, now he's begging me to go to mc with him ..don't think so buddy ain't happening..not to mention i put them both on cheaterville and someone posted that she destroyed another family i threw that in his face ..oh did i mention he's 49 his daughter is older then the skank.

Just FYI there is no objective basis for this 3% quote.
It`s false and misinforms.
The only equation I`ve ever been able to find concerning this 3% quote was the worst torturing of basic math I`ve ever witnessed.
Just saying affairs that continue are a bit more successful than that.

Yeah, I can buy that. I think many cheaters remain with their affair partners out of stubborness, even if things are going bad. Bailing would be an admission that they were wrong.
