The married person is 100% at fault for breaking his or her vows and committing adultery. The non married person is 100% to blame for having an affair with a married person.

Both are to blame

The married person absolutely 100%. I just don’t get it when people get all angry at and go after the other person.

If we're breaking it out into categories, yes. But then it's 50% weighted to vows and 50% weighted to having an affair with a married person.

Both are 100% pieces of shite.

100% cheating spouse.

The jody or jodi needs an arse whipping if they knowingly pursued a married person.

But it's still the cheating spouse that cheated.

How do you not understand? Are you guys all audio animatronics? Human emotion is a real thing, anger is one of them. Yeah, you're nuclear level pissed at the spouse, but you walk in on a dude pile driving your wife, and you just shrug your shoulders and shake his hand? Come on...

But he was just going for what he wants which you stated earlier is perfectly fine. He didn't do anything wrong. And you already said you would shake his hand for doing the deed. So why would you end the friendship if he did nothing wrong? He didn't take any vows. Don't you want your friends or your brothers to get what they want?

That's the flaw in your logic. You can't say that the guy has no responsibility and did nothing wrong because he was single but then end the friendship over it. If he didn't do anything wrong then you shouldn't end the friendship.

Not a gotcha. He's my friend or brother. He willingly hurt me. Not the same as a stranger or someone from around the block.

He didn't destroy my marriage. He destroyed our friendship

But we're circling each other, so I'll make my exit. It was fun.

If it happens, hit me up, drinks are on me. We can yell and scream at each other about who's to blame.

So your logic is that it's okay to knowingly and intentionally hurt strangers but not friends/family? I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree on this one. I think it's wrong to intentionally cause pain and suffering and hurt to anybody whether a friend or a stranger. It's that pesky "do unto others" thing that's the issue.

Only one person in your described scenario took a vow to another person.

Not trying to take blame away from the husband, but I’ve seen this happen before. Some women (Co-worker or friend) can sense when there may be tension in a marriage or can tell when the husband is not getting what he needs. She will prey on that and start pursuing him until he is trapped.

Why would you blame the mistress? Unless she seduced him after repeated resistance, it's pretty much on the cheater more than the cheatee.

50/50

The only reason to say 50/50 is to reduce the accountability of the cheating spouse.

"Sure, I made vows but I couldn't have cheated if she didn't let me. Think about it. It's not ALL my fault. Look over there at her... she's partly to blame for my infidelity."

No, 50/50 doesn’t reduce his accountability. It rejects the idea that hers is zero. Those aren’t the same thing.
