Nah. Cheating isn't part of a good marriage.
One example, root case being communication - husband/wife gets fat after marriage. Skinny SO is no longer attacted to him/her, so sex life suffers. Skinny party thinks fat party doesn't care. Truth is, fat party is going through a life change - adjusting to marriage, working full time, ect. If they don't talk about it, skinny party may cheat based on thinking fat party doesn't care. If they talk, they could figure out a constructive way to support one another and spend time together - maybe take daily walks together or something. They grow closer and solve the at problem.
You have to take time to get things in the open and speak honestly. If you can't be honest with your SO, you aren't being your best.

i'm not sure
but what I do know, is that I know several couples that have experiences affairs, and many of them are still together
they're obviously working on shite, but they didnt just throw it away immediately
marriage has ups and downs

Hell no. I can barely keep my wife happy. I couldn't imagine having another women in the mix. I told my wife if she every left me of died, she wouldn't have to worry about me having another relationship with another women. I don't think I am very good at it.

This is part of the problem. People get tired of their wives nagging, trying to control them, and her general negativity. Then they meet a younger, more attractive girl who is funny, bubbly and enjoyable to be around and feel a refreshing sense of being alive.
Not saying it's right, but when the person you married becomes a different person, it's understandable.

Nope. Years ago I knew a couple of married ladies who had long-running affairs. Worked with one and other was involved with my friend for about a couple of years. The one I worked with had a on/off affair that lasted several years and she is still married as far as I know. The other one that was involved with my friend had a nasty divorce and married a guy less than year after the divorce - interesting thing is that this guy is LOADED...

And kudos to them. I've never been in this situation. I'm not sure if a GF has ever cheated on me to be honest. What I do know is that it would be incredibly difficult for me to get past it. It would make me look at the woman differently. Having children, being married...who wouldn't want to salvage it? It would just be a steep hill to climb, and many people won't be able to get past the dumb decision of the other person, understandably so.

Affair sex is about the hottest sex you can have, which is why people do it.

your opinion is more level-headed that what i've typically seen here though
people tend to think marriage is temporary now-a-days
if you give up at the first sign of trouble, you aren't doing it right

If I ever re-marry, I'll probably go ahead and have an affair just to beat her to the punch.

I've been with someone who's having an affair, so I've been the "other guy." I didn't know for sure at the time but I had a strong suspicion and didn't dig deeper because I didn't want to know for sure, and didn't care at the time.
Feels good while you're doing it, you don't really think of any consequences until afterwards. I won't do it again. You're just being used as an object and that's not a good feeling. You're not the one she really loves, and if she's doing it to him she would do it to you.
