It’s both of their faults they got caught. Dummies. Gotta be smart and keep it on the DL.

When discussing the event, I put the blame on the husband, like 95%.
My wife was aghast, and put it at like 65%.
If not stated already that's her signaling shes cheating on you.

No pics of the wife. Incredibly pregnant at the moment
What makes you think that's a problem?

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

Sure it does. You're saying he's only bears 50% of the blame for cheating on his wife. The other 50% is on some random woman. That's crazy.

You’re confusing responsibility with obligation. He bears 100% responsibility for breaking his vows, I don't disagree with this. She bears 100% responsibility for knowingly helping him do it.

But if you're talking about the act as a whole, it's 50/50.

I can appreciate your adherence to your line of thinking.
I think you’re wrong, but you and my wife would agree, so you got that going for you, which may be nice.

The Married is 100% to blame.

Not shake his hand, but snap a pic and thank him for saving me some money in the divorce settlement.

For who is to blame, both participants are equally to blame for the sex. The married person though has the greater obligation to resist and find another solution for whatever is driving them towards infidelity.

Those making the binary judgements that the cheaters are pieces of shite are simpletons. There are a myriad reasons people cheat and it isn't always because they are shitty people.

I blame the spouse of the married one for not doing their duty to keep their SO satisfied.

The woman is always responsible for saying no; men are genetically wired to procreate.

Humans are wired for sex. Reproduction is our biological reason for existence. Cheating is not a requirement.

When it comes to cheating… only the married man would be.

The bitch, slut, whore, is just passing through from one guy to another and maybe even a couple at the same time after him.

Ie: She is cheating on no one.

Married 100%. I entertain stepping out and come to my senses because it’s self-serving and against my vows before God. I alone can allow it to happen or stop it in its tracks. That’s on me.

Most do it from lack of sex/affection/not being attracted to their partner any longe


I’m sure that’s often true, but I can think of multiple situations where the person they cheat with is less attractive than the spouse. I think it’s often a lack of emotional intimacy. It’s really easy to pour most of your time and energy into kids or a job & letting the marriage itself slide.

People seem to think that there is a need to assign a percentage of guilt for an event. But that is not how guilt operates. Each individual is judged alone. Each is 100 percent guilty of a very serious wrong.

bullshite. The mistress didn’t swear vows. What she’s doing is unethical but she has nothing to do with the vows between two other people.

This is the answer. Both are wrong and both actions are sin.
