Just a quick question. What percentage of D's do you all think are a result of an A? After going through this S--- it is hard for me to imagine any problem in a marriage, short of abuse or abandoment, that could not be resolved without a D. Especially when you read the posts here and see to what extent a BS will go to avoid a D.

Not sure about the percentages, but to quote from Harley's article, <A HREF="http://www.marriagebuilders.com/graphic/mbi8111_leave.html" TARGET=_blank> Why do Women Leave Men</A>:<P><UL TYPE=SQUARE><BR><LI>"I hurt all the time because I feel alone and abandoned." <BR><LI>"My husband is no longer my friend." <BR><LI>"The only time he pays attention to me is when he wants sex." <BR><LI>"He is never there for me when I need him the most." <BR><LI>"When he hurts my feelings he doesn't apologize." <BR><LI>"He lives his life as if we weren't married; he rarely considers me." <BR><LI>"We're like ships passing in the night, he goes his way and I go mine." <BR><LI>"My husband has become a stranger to me, I don't even know who he is anymore." <BR><LI>"He doesn't show any interest in me or what I do."<BR></UL>

What I have read is that infidelity leads to divorce only about 3-4% of the time. <P><BR>Affairs occur in 50% - 60% of all marriages. <P>42% of all men and women have affairs<P>Z<P>------------------<BR>He loves not who does not show love.<BR>----William Shakespeare
