"But my wife and I have read all four books and find them no threat to our faith or that of our children."

All the women I know who filed for divorce filed because of infidelity--committed by the husband. Yes, I know there are a variety of reasons for divorce, and female infidelity is one of them, but don't act like just because the woman filed it's her fault the marriage failed. No, no.

There are a heck of a lot of women who are committing adultery as well. It is not always the man's fault. I read of a case on another board about a couple who married. Just after the marriage, the woman had a fling with a former boy-friend. She waited until her husband had an affair 5 years later before she told her husband about it. She said that hiding it poisoned their marriage. In other words, she had an affair which affected their marriage, probably pushed her husband into having an affair, and then told him about her affair with the old boy-friend.

There was another case in which the woman has been having an affair for the last 8 to 9 months and is not debating whether to tell her husband.

Another case in which the woman had an affair a year ago, the husband found out and has since moved out of the house after trying to work it out.

Personally, I think that when a spouse has an affair, the marriage bond has been broken. The marriage will never be the same again. And the couple had might as well just divorce and move on with their lives. Sometimes the guy has an affair, but often, often it is the woman.
