How Could One Justify Adultery?, Or is it Unforgivable? Options

[fameONE]

Marriage is serious business!

Well, it should be viewed that way, at least. How could one justify cheating on their spouse? What situation could possibly permit such an act as 'excusable?' On the other hand, depending on the situation, is it possible for a third party to find some sense of 'right' by knowingly getting involved with a married person?

I'd like to hear some responses. It seems like a vague question now, but I'll go into detail a bit more pending the responses I get.

To avoid any NJPs or Court-Martials, I would stay away from that. You never know when the btch goes crazy and starts popping off at the mouth. She won't get in trouble because shes a civilian, but you definitely will. Ive seen it happen. Whatever the relationship with her and her husband, if she's trying to get with you and shes married, its trouble. She'll only do the same thing with you.

This is one of the big reasons I left.

This is one of the big reasons why I feel like its damn near impossible to have a normal, healthy, social life that doesn't involve bar-fights, binge drinking and barracks whores. I get what you're saying, and I'm really not trying to get with this broad. But the story goes as follows; she's deployed, husband is at home with the kids; husband goes TAD to Lejeune and subsequently knocks up his PFC girlfriend (he's a SSgt, mind you); dumb husband emails his wife (drunk) thinking he's email his girlfriend and the truth comes out. I happen to be the shoulder to cry on.

Perception is reality so nothing happened. You understand me better than anyone else here so I'll leave it at that.

But then again, the world is not black and white. There are shades of grey that need to be considered when talking about relationships.

Marriage is no different.
