Or more simply, we shouldn't do the wrong thing, even if we can get away with it, and it would seemingly enrich us or make us happy.

Well, one problem I think I have with that theory is that seems to suggest that your happiness can be realized through another person and if you find the "right" person, or the "more right" person you'll be happy. I've come to believe that happiness is much more internal. I can be happy in whatever situation I am in and I determine my own happiness. I don't find or look for happiness in other people or material objects or whatever.

I also would personally find it very hard to feel happy and enriched in my life if I had broken up a marriage or 2 marriages and messed with my children's lives and the OP's children, and don't see how others could feel happy or enriched in that situation either. All that for some R which chances are 80% or something will not work out??? Karen
