I feel like every situation is different. How dare someone say any woman is weak, when she goes through so much in life. A woman has a hard path to track. Some women stay in an unhappy union for everyone around her, such as the kids or family. Sometimes its not about weakness or insecurity but for security in fact.

I think it’s a sign of naivety and stupidity or perhaps she does not care because she has her own thing on the side.

It could be a sign of strength.

NO!!!! i think she really understands her man!!!!! Women like to think their men are only attracted to them but that is not true!!! If it was, men would not cheat!!!!

It could just be emotional disconnection. I think most women who settle for this just don’t feel like they really care about their marriages anymore.

It is a sign of how blind love Truly is. It is also a sign of how afraid a woman is to lose her comfort zone that she would accept infidelity

I think many women accept their man’s infidelity as a relief as they don’t care to be inconvenienced by having sex with him anymore and are grateful that his mistress is now doing the " heavy lifting " for her.

I think it takes a very strong woman to stand by a man who cheats on her once. I think it takes a fool to stand by a man who cheats on her repeatedly. I personally am not strong enough to work through infidelity be it once or 100.

I think that it just means she doesn’t want the fallout that would occur if she were to stand up to him about it. That could mean insecurity or weakness, but it could also just be denial or the fact that she might not really care.

No. I think if she is willing to accept it she is really in love with the person and doesn’t give enough credence to sex as a emotionally bonding experience. I think a lot of women (and men) would condone interpersonal sexual relationships and even deem them necessary if they positively effected their income, relationship and family. Contrary to popular belief there are a lot more of these types of relationships than we think. Stress, anxst, remote living, all are reasons that a positive inter-personal relationship could be good for a marriage without being the downfall on another side. People generally are bored with each other and may see the extra partner as a release from the boredom or as a way out of having to provide that particular need for their partners.
