How about giving the support to to them?
Don't simply tell them they should get as soon as the even supsect an affair.

Hey, guy! I LIKE the way you type! I can hear you speak when I read your writing! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

Chris, I wonder if this thread was prompted by the responses 2 NoWhiteFlag's thread?

Not really that thread but definitely that attitude.

Their pain is already bad enough and someone tells them (basically) they are losers because they picked a loser spouse.

I mean we are here to help pick up someone who just got crushed, correct?

And no, I'm not simply saying that everyone should stay married, regardless of the circumstances. But THEY will know when it's time to move on.

Is this a boys only thread!!!

No we should not tell people here what to do, but we give them suggestions and guidence, show them options that they have. Most of the time after just typing it out they come to their own conclusion. I know that I did many times!!! WE as outsiders do not know what is best for them, so we should not tell them what to do!!!
