Infidelity

Why not start off a new blog about the relations between women and men with a bang? And nothing is more explosive than infidelity. I wish I could have the forgiving and loving attitude that Anne Bercht displays in this article, but I don't.

I know that infidelity is a "sign" that something is wrong in a relationship (duh), but is it so wrong or passe to want to be in a relationship where I trust the man to TELL ME there's something wrong? You know moms of toddlers are always saying, "Use your words." I'd much rather a man used his words than informed me of the state of our relationship by sticking his dick somewhere it shouldn't be.

Here's where I stand on cheating: A man who can't come clean about whatever his problem is, and resorts to an affair rather than confronting it, is a weasely coward. And finding out about an affair the way that Bercht did - out of nowhere - would essentially be finding out that my husband was a weasely coward. Could I forgive the affair? Possibly. Could I forgive myself for being with a weasely coward?

Doubtful.
