Well, for the purposes of motivating his wife, it's not the actual physical relationship with another woman that matters, it's only the appearance.
Presumably, his wife wouldn't be "on location" to verify any physical act, unless we're talking about a very different arrangement that is beyond what I'm suggesting! Since it's only the appearance that's important for motivating his wife, it gives him the option of being faithful at the same time, by just going to the library for few hours in the evenings or after work, etc. And then, if it turns out not to be a good thing, he can honestly come clean and even have the librarian as an alibi.

If this is what it took for your wife to be interested in you and her marriage is it that bad? Your probably going to be gone anyway, and on the way out... Does it matter?


That's another point entirely, and yes, that is my reasoning too. Though others say you should be careful because if it's really acrimonious, I think you could lose more in certain settlement situations if you were the one who "cheated". Not sure if every jurisdiction/arbitration method views withholding sex as being the same as cheating, though I think it should.

Well, good luck to him if he wants to try this. I tried that kind of "sneaking up" on my wife and she could see it coming a mile away and put a stop to it, pretty much as though I were some homeless lascivious pervert on the subway trying to cop a feel.
