Boy, our H's seem to pick winners!! I had read somewhere once that people cheat down, meaning that they don't get someone just like their spouse, but someone maybe a step or 2 down from their spouses level. Not trying to make that sound snobbish, just that the left behind spouse might have a strong moral system, work ethic, good parenting skills etc, and the OP does not have as strong as skills in these areas for example. kat
This is true over 75% of the time. My wife's affair partner, while 20 years younger than her, also drove a P.O.S. pickup truck with a broken sideview mirror, had HORRIBLE acne, and LIVED WITH HIS FREAKING PARENTS.
