Who looks stupider the cheating husband or his ignorant wife?
user
We see far too often in the media, and in
our own personal circles, a cheating husband running around
town with another woman and seemingly having the time of his life,
while his wife sits at home in a state of ignorance or
non-acceptance. As a betrayed wife myself, I often wondered if
people viewed me as stupid because my husband chose to publically
disregard our marital vows, and in my opinion, humiliate me in
front of others. I personally have never viewed myself as stupid,
but rather feel that any man who would trade in a Mercedes for
a Pinto is the one who is stupid. I must admit,
though, that I sometimes view other betrayed wives as stupid
for either not knowing their man is cheating on them, or not doing
anything about it. I know I should be ashamed for thinking
that way, I mean isn't that the ultimate example of throwing
stones from a glass house? I just can't seem to shake this
perception though, perhaps because deep down inside, or not so
deep, I may be attempting to ignore my own feelings of
stupidity.
On the contrary, I feel sorry for men when their wives are cheating
on them and look at the cheating wife as a no good loser. I have no
idea why I view these situations differently, and am
wondering if others feel the same. I guess what I'm asking is,
do you think the wife of a cheating man looks stupid if she
doesn't know about the affair but should? If she knows about
the affair and ignores it? If she stays with a cheating spouse? Or
do you think the cheating husband looks like an idiot for risking
so much by having an affair? Is it different when the person
having the affair is a woman?
When I look in the mirror I don't think I look stupid, but
do others? I really need to know this.
