I think as human beings we have this desire to classify people, to wrap them up and put them neatly into little boxes. It's far easier for us to do so than to have to figure out every individual we come across. It's also not always applicable. I think there are many types of men, women and marriages. To try and reduce men down to two types is just our anxious need to figure everything out in the hopes of avoiding what we've just gone through again. There are all sorts of reasons men and women look elsewhere outside their marriages and some are always on the hunt, others are dissatisfied with their marriage, their spouse or themselves.
WII - I can see your point and don't necessarily disagree. I just don't think people are all that complicated. So, I don't think we need to categorize as much as there are some basic assessment that happens when you meet someone. (not that I always pay attention to that assessment, hence, why I landed here).
Not categories - just a fact - people are either available or they are not. This is physically and emotionally. To themselves and others. A good indicator is people who start explaining themselves the minute you meet them. And if they are unavailable at some level, they just are - we can buy their excuses, look that other way or walk away. I'm just emphasizing that people need to be honest with themselves and others. Believe me, I got my areas where I am unavailable and got no problems letting people know.
