How many marriages have been saved by cheating?

Jersey Boy

No marriages have been saved that I know of by cheating. Some couples may still remain together even though one or both are cheating, but I wouldn't say it is a healthy marriage.

Nobody is forced to marry, if you like to go from woman to woman wear protection and don't get married.

so now cheating on someone is actually doing them a favor... just when I thought I've heard it all.

No marriages have been saved by cheating. Millions of marriages have been destroyed by it.

When you cheat you put a big wall -- the BIG SECRET -- between you and the one person you love -- or used to love -- most.

You prove to yourself and possibly to the world that you can't be trusted to be honest and to keep your promises -- even to the most important person in the world.

Cheating leads to routine lying and sneaking around, jealousy, emotional distance, separation, divorce, stealing, destruction of childrens' lives, stepfamily complications, financial stress and sometimes even financial ruin, emotional distress, separation from God, shame, anger, rage, violence, stalking, and often MURDER and suicide -- that's just for starters.

There's no such thing as a harmless affair. If you don't love your wife or your husband and can't find a way to make your marriage work, then be honest and get a divorce before you start sleeping around -- not after.

Really? No marriages have not been saved....Some men blame it on "bad choices"...that's stupid! Your #ick did not just fall into her....your marriage is done because in the back of her mind...she still thinks about it and will do something to get back at you....

None that I'm aware of.. especially if the spouse finds out..but if you read some of the tabloids.. I'm sure everyone benefits..
I'm not sure the guys you know are the ones you want to hang out with.. especially.. when you get married and they are cheating with your wife to save their marriage..

I don't think cheating is right.

However, I think cheating is a definite sign of problems in a marriage and oddly enough, good things can come from some situations. I know of someone who cheated on his wife, mostly out of lonliness. She found out and they almost got divorced. They worked through it though, and now his wife is much more involved in his life. I don't think they've ever been happier together.

I'd advise to break up or divorce before getting involved with someone else. That'd be alot better of a wake-up call to the husband or wife.

That's disgusting I hope who ever said that there wife finds out and they get a divorce! That's hella messed up!

yeah, a cheater would say that wouldn't they. as far as how many marriages have been saved by infidelity..absolutely none that I know of, not one

I doubt any...usually those end up in divorce!!! Hum..and it is not true for women too!

I mean really, not to be judgmental but why stay married if you want to play the field? I think divorce is always an option. And how can you honor and cherish your marriage partner if you are out cheating? It seems to me every talk show in the country has covered this topic, particularly Oprah and Dr. Phil. They say it is how the person you cheat with makes you feel that causes you to cheat. In another words it is an emotional connection lacking that leads married people to stray. Somehow they lost that connection with their marriage partner so they are straying. So marriage when it reaches this point to me is really a waste of time and effort, unless you get some help to work through some of the issues. I mean a marriage where cheating exists, lacks honesty, and therefore intimacy.

long live the dream

i don't know of any.

None of my three!!! Hahahaha!! No, women don't step out on they're husbands, because the husbands can tell remember. Baaahhhaaa!!

I disagree.. I have cheated and it didnt save my marriage.. it ended it.. If you are in love with your spouse you dont need to "save your marriage" by cheating.. you need to put every single drop of your self into your marriage to reinvent it and make exciting.. and if you need to cheat then please take my advice.. you may not get caught ever but you will always have to live with that.. If your marriage is worth saving, save it the right way, if it is not then do the right thing and end it..!

None

Iwould say none.The men only say that because they want to play around.

ZERO! Cheating just proves you're SCUM!
Nothing good can possibly result from cheating, as it proves you to be dishonest and disrespectful and totally destroys trust.

However, LOTS of marriages have been saved by both parties agreeing to have an open, honest relationship that includes seeing others and/or swinging with other couples or singles. As long as both of you know and approve of what each other is doing beforehand, it's not cheating.

ummm... nice try. none.

if cheaters get to keep their spouse and get an even greater marriage it would be because they made the resolve to live for their spouse and be totally happy instead of losing them. not because a fling showed them the way.

Why not me

Are you serious? & Thx for the 2pts.

I have no idea, but that is an interested question. I would guess it would be more true of men then women, but I don't think it would be easy to get statistics on that since few people would fess up to it.

tribute_13

u serious?

princetim2000

cheating is not the answer,cheating leads to lying and from that point nothing good can come from it.

Brobe

I know some marriages stayed together, because the wife or husband knew that it did not make sense at the time to get a divorce. they think that it was a one time occurance but they just hold on to the belief that it won't happen again.

REMON

NONE !!!!!!!!!

Yes that`s true.
What can we do? It happens...
Some people need to cheat to know how much they like the other person, sometimes they need to be sure.

â˜†BTriXâ˜†

It's unfortunate, but true. Most all marriages that have lasted over 20 years have had infidelity.

Meredith

What?! Are you serious? My parents marriage ended because my mom cheated with her current husband and it ended BITTERLY. I would highly suggest against it.

colera667

i know of a few who follow that method... but believe me... it doesnt work if you get caught.

tinkerbell

HOPEFULLY NONE !!!!!!!!!!!
