[QUOTE="donna723, post: 71354, member: 1883"] And I'll tell you something else ... (I'm on a roll here [img]:grin:[/img]) - I've always heard that a WOMAN will stay in a bad relationship until it becomes completely intolerable. But a MAN will stay in a bad relationship until HE HAS SOMEWHERE ELSE TO GO! Most men, especially if they've been married a long time, really like and get used to the "fringe benefits" of being married. They LIKE being at home where they're comfortable and settled in, where their kids are. They LIKE having dinner made for them every night and they LIKE having somebody do their laundry and keep the house clean. And they LIKE the economic advantages of living in the same house with their wife - only one set of bills to pay. If they have affairs, they rationalize their reasons until they convince themselves that they're justified and "entitled" - but they don't want to give up the cushy thing they've got going on at home either! They want BOTH, and they don't want the good thing they've got going on disrupted! Most of them figure that they're waaaay too slick and waaay too clever to get caught - then when they DO get caught, they panic! They're thinking, "What will happen to <u>ME</u>?" "Where will <u>I</u> go?" So they get all defensive, they try to minimize the situation, start shifting the blame, making accusations of their own ... You can tell I've been through all this before, can't you! [/QUOTE]
