infidelity in marriage

Philippines

is it just right for a man to hate his wife after she flirted with another man in a chat session? Prior to that , the man was the first one to commit infidelity when he dated with another woman in another country where he worked. His reason was loneliness and emotional instability during those times of mistake. When he confessed to his wife, she got so hurt that she decided to retaliate by doing almost the same thing, that is through chat. Because of this, they fell into hating each other. I know they're both wrong but who's the worse evil?

Yaa infidelity in marriage in not good. But in retaliation you do the same thing is worse to this, coz in this you proved that you also wanted the same thing and is waiting for your partner for the xcuses. bcoz he or she has done that. The better thing is that if you are committed to someone you should not do such thing otherwise you are playing with other one sentiments. If someone did that after committing its a crime and other one have the right to stay away from him/her forever.

Of course the man was the worse evil. He did a mistake wiht his marriage life. And being lonely and emotional instability is not enough reason why he cheated his wife. Also a woman having a mistake. its not good for a couple to decide to retaliate if someone of them made mistake wiht their relationship. But, speaking of chatting, so it means, it is through internet, u did not see in person yet, so why he hate her wife..Her wife havent been touch yet or anything..The best thing to do so that no hatred between the two of you is do not did some mistake to each other that could start to hatred..Remember the saying also "Do not do unto others if u do not want others do unto you".:)

There is no excuse for not being faithful to your spouse - whether or not your spouse has been faithful or not. Each person is responsible for his/her own actions - and never will two wrongs make a right. If the wife stayed married to the husband once he admitted his unfaithfulness, she should have then treated her husband with the same respect that she would have treated him with before he cheated. If not, she should have left. Revengeful acts accomplish nothing. Each party in this is wrong - each one equally wrong. Sin is sin is sin is sin.

If you are going to keep hurting each other, then why would they be still together?

Two wrongs do not make a right. If I had to chose which was the worst, I would say the wife. She knows what it is like to be cheated on, to feel betrayed and hurt and embarrassed. Revenge is an ungly animal best served cold, as the wife as has done. How do a couple pick up and move on from there, it's hard to say.

I think both are equally bad as both been unfaithfyl towards their partners whatever be their excuse for doing that. infedelity in marriage and divorces are happening everywhere in the world and is a harsh reality. The society should discourage such activities then only such people will come to senses.

You have overlooked the fact that the guy cheated first... It wasn't the woman's sole mistake that ruined them. Do you think she's the only one to be blamed?

LOYALTY is always important when entering into the sacrament of marraige. once the trust is broken, it is very impossible to gain it back. it usually takes time to heal wounds brought about this infidelity done by the other partner. it also takes some time to forgive and forget what has happened. And besides if you love your husband/wife, you will stick with your vow no matter how great the temptation is because you will always think that in one mistake, it will ruin your family. Some men also think that it is okay for them to play around but their wives should always be loyal to them... i think both should be loyal to eachother other because marraige is partnership. both should make it work

good pair - hus n wife
i think the wife does a cruel act in taking a revenge for the act of her husband rather than making him to move in a wright way

as the saying goes, "Do not do unto others what you do not want others to do unto you". so if you don't want your wife to be cheating on you, then you should stop cheating on her too. the end doesn't justify the mean my friend. ;)

Shes giving him a taste of his own medicine! He totally deserves it if he cheated on her. cheating is the worst thing ever. Now she should dump him for being unfaithful to her.
