I'd say that this should be a fireable offense for any company. If a guy cheats on his wife with a coworker, then that fricks with the work enviornment, and he's a cheater on top of that. Few things you should be looked down on more than cheating on your spouse. Just have the balls to end it.


I kige this. Plus it creates a security risk--something like that can make a normal person snap. It's a lot more common for men to become violent than women, but what if the jilted spouse shows up at the office with a gun? The cheater put everyone in the company at risk.

A girl I used to date had an affair with her boss (after we had stopped dating). He dumped his wife and married the new girl. Nobody thought it would last, but they've been together several years and have a couple of kids.

How do you ever truly trust the person?

I read that thinking of the Seinfeld episode about double-dipping the chip.

"Just take one dip and end it"

Would have been good advice for the cheater.

Doesn't always work that way, though you would think it would. Many times people are looking in totally different things from "the other woman" (or man) than they are the spouse.

The rush is pretty strong, It's something difficult for people to just stop doing.

I think it's possible, but it likely varies greatly by the person/situation. For most circumstances, I think I'd agree (always have doubts).

The exception would be the relationship/marriage that is clearly over, perhaps and hopefully not mostly due to the cheater's fault, and you basically start the affair in the relative position of people who are single.

I do think a lot of people would claim that (it was already over), when their affair hastened or instigated the downfall.

I think even people who have never had an affair/cheated, but who have snuck around with someone (even when you're younger, from parents or the like) can understand it.

yeah like if he was supposedly working late when he was cheating with her. What's going to go through her mind the first time he has to work late now that they're married?

The best way to avoid sliding down a slippery slope is to avoid the slippery fricking slope in the first place.

This isn't like the old Peanut Butter Cup commercials where two people bump into each other and are all "Hey! You're chocolate is in my peanut butter" and "No, your peanut butter got on my chocolate". No two people just happen to walk down the street and "Hey! Your dick just fell into my pussy!", it's a series of steps and pre-determined actions that lead to this.

If someone is of truly faithful character they don't let themselves get into the situation in the first place.

The weird thing is this guy travels a lot for his job and is away from home overnight several times a month. So there's plenty of opportunity.

For sure. I think there are exceptions, but I think they're rare. I know of a situation where two pretty long term friends got together as one of their marriages ended, and while I would guess they didn't want for it to officially end, it seemed like a much less deceptive/egregious cheating/affair situation. Still not the right way to go about it, but I'm guessing that girl doesn't have the same concerns the average person does.

While I'm sure reasonably good people do fall "victim" to cheating in some circumstances, I imagine most put themselves in those positions repeatedly before it actually happens, which obviously means that you've got issues.

Absolutely. But once they go there, they're likely to continue.

That's what I thought as well, but the couple I'm talking about appear to be faithful so far, and I'm somewhat close to the situation. Of course I don't know everything, and something could be going on that I don't know about, but there's nothing blatant.
