I don't feel intolerant, Susan. And I have no desire to castigate you.
But I'm a wife, you see. So I can't agree with blanket statements that infidelity is A-OK. Not if both parties in a committed relationship aren't in agreement that it's A-OK with them.
That doesn't mean that I have any particular feelings about any particular infidelities.
Just very particular feelings about the general idea.
And infidelities involving my husband, or my therapist if they also involve a patient (otherwise it's between him and his wife). And perhaps one involving friends who are hurt by infidelities. Which has happened. But I've also had friends who have hurt their spouses with infidelity. I'm not sure I've ever had close friends who had infidelity in the marriage, but no one was hurt. But if it ever did happen, I wouldn't have a single thing to say about it.
