That's not a very empathetic response and not very helpful. In fact it is pretty much the same as a someone telling you to just get over the fact you are in a SSM. Just because sex is not important to them is no excuse for judging your need.
Those problems run deeper than anything he created with an EA.
I would challenge this. If anything, Chrome's reaction by having an affair shows his issues of not being able to deal with things in his marriage in a straight forward open way. That IS Chrome's FOO issue and is definitely something HE needs to understand and get under control.
Plus his affair only complicated and confused their marital issues. How in the world did that not create a deeper problem?
Also I would say that the EA is the problem IF, as I suspect, the EA took place as a way for Chrome to get the validation he should be learning to get from himself.
