If you do the research about A's, you'll find that they see the A life and the life at home as two separate things. That's why many times when a WAS is discovered, they're amazed to find that the LBS is actually hurt. This is also why some people want to have both an AP and their family. They don't see how one affects the other because that connection is severed by their putting them in separate compartments in their subconscience.
It's also why they can come up with alot of the nonsense they do about the reasons why they are having an A. Things like how they NEVER were happy in the marriage and other generalities.
Problem is that they can only invest their emotions into one compartment. And which one would you choose? The one with the bills and daily household grind or the fantasy where everything is mysterious and fun with no strings attached?

Emotion, yet peace. Ignorance, yet knowledge. Passion, yet serenity. Chaos, yet harmony. Death, yet a new life.
