Most women can't deal with a man's sexual appetite. This is why many commited men sneak around and cheat on their woman. It's hard for men to control that urge. |
It's funny, because my experience has been the exact opposite. Almost every diovorced man I know left because they had unfaithful wives, yet men are constantly stereotypes as being cheaters.
I think that used to be very true, or more true than it is now; but nowadays, I have personally seen way more more women doin' the cheating than men.
That's MY experience in the are where I live; among the circle of friends that I have, but it amazes me that I know so many men who had, and some who still have unfaithful wives.
Also, in almost every case, it was either with someone in the workplace, or a close friend that the wives saw frequently. Later, it became more frequent with people that they met online.
The internet has opened doors to unfaithfulness that no one ever dreamed of. There are websites with married people looking for sexual partners and it seems like it's no big deal to these people.
I think this whole sexual revolution thing has turned out to be a disaster in many ways. That's the way I see it anyway.
When I was a kid, divorce carried a stigma. Now, it's almost expected and people actually congratulate people when they go through it. I find that quite insane. Even an amicable divorce can be a very traumatic experience; especially when kids are involved.
So many people seem to forget that this is a situation where two people really wanted to make a life together at some pint, tried to, and something went terribly wrong, and it's not pleasant in most cases.
When I hear of another person separating or divorcing I usually say something like "I'm sorry to hear that" and "How are the kids taking it so far"?? I always advise anyone, especially men; to stay in very close contact with their kids as well; because I have seen what can happen when they don't. I certainly would never congratulate anyone going through a divorce.
