The 80/20 Rule...

[Valentine]

OKay, so I was watching this movie called "Why did I get married?" by Tyler Perry...and the men and women in this movie are talking about infidelity and how the OW fits in...Tyler Perry (or one of the characters) put it like this:


"Do you know the 80/20 rule ? In most cases, in marriage you are only going to get eighty percent of what you need. That’s it. No more, no less.
Most time eighty percent.
Now here comes this woman offering twenty percent.
Now twenty percent looks real good when you are not getting it.
But the problem is you are going to leave the eighty percent and thinking you were getting something better, and you end up with twenty percent."

hmmmmmm....wonder if any of our spouses look at it this way...

Anyhow, this is how I feel like my H justified his affair. the 20% must have looked like 1000% in his eyes...dork!.

Anyhow...just wondering how many of you out there agree with this rule and feel that it applies...

AND this is why we are never "replaced" by the OP...
