What does it tell when a wife doesn t divorce his husband because of adultery?

I suppose you haven't been married and/or do not understand the dynamics of marriage. Many times, women look the other way if their husbands are having an affair or seeing someone else. Why? Well, primarily because she's not having sex with him anyway.

Marriage is an investment, and it's about a lot more than sex. Even if a man steps out on his wife, it doesnt mean he does not love her. There are emotional investments in a marriage -- children, family. There is a responsibility to take care of our loved ones. There are financial gains as well as emotional commitments. There is the security of having a place to go at the end of the day, and someone to depend on, and family to look forward to

Some marriages lack sex. Others don't.

Not every man cheats, however. Not every woman leaves a cheating husband.

Its not easy or comfortable to get up, walk out of a marriage and skip down the street on our merry way.

When a wife or husband doesn't divorce their cheating partner (and they know cheating is happening) it means they have reasons to stay. Could be dependence, financial, emotional, or something else. Every situation is different.

For all you know, they had this "arrangement" when they got married and it doesn't bother her in the slightest. You don't know what goes on behind closed doors and the only people that know what happen in their marriage are the two people INVOLVED.

There are many couples like this, but who knows? Yeah, she could be hating life. Yeah, this could be how it is with them. Yeah, maybe she has a lover or two on the side, as well. You don't know, no one asked you to butt in with your two cents, so leave it be. It's none of your concern.

It may be kindness.

It may be fear of facing life as a single mother.

It may be that she no longer loves her husband and has accepted her life as it is.

He may be faithful, but at the end of the day, he goes back to HER. She may have decided that would rather accept his cheating than lose her husband and her marriage. Perhaps she doesn't even like sex anymore, and they have agreed that he can cheat, as long as the marriage remains.

It is more likely that she is willing to have an unfaithful husband to take care of her than to face the world alone. I see this as a lack of self esteem on her part. It is not kindness but weakness on her part.

No one knows her reasons except for her.

What's it to you?
