Their are very powerful forces at work here. More powerful than you can possibly imagine.
I went to a school that had an honor code, we will not lie, steal, or cheat or tolerate anyone that does.
General Petreaus went to a school with almost the same code as mine, yet he lied and cheated and tolerated others to do the same after a long career and marriage.
I find it hard to believe that a very powerful force did not overcome him to make such a profound change in his very core values. I have classmates and other grads that I know that have gone down the same path. These were very honorable people, yet look at what they did.
Starsky is quite correct in his assesment, and are spouses the ones we trusted more than anyone in the world can not be trusted, whether you see cheating or not. Once the bomb has dropped they are no longer the people that you once knew.
