Gross outlook on life there. I hope you're not married. Your casual acceptance tells me either A: You aren't or B: You are and are ok with stepping outside of your home.

I'd say that your acceptance due to "wartime" is pretty sickening. Says a lot about how you deal with promises and commitments you make. If you have integrity you'd feel differently.

It's never acceptable to cheat. Plain and simple. It's not "adolescent" to expect that in a relationship. If you feel it is, great. Again, you're either not married or you have an open relationship. Either way it's not what most people except when asking someone to marry them. If it was, it'd involve a ring for you, your wifes boyfriend and anyone else she choose to drop her skirt for. Which goes both ways. I gave a ring to my wife and have no intent of sleeping with anyone else unless I got divorced.

However I have principles, integrity and morals.

Anyone that would even consider what his wife did is beyond comprehension. Why someone like that would get married or even be in a relationship in the first place is unfathomable.

Can't say I did, I'm sure it happened quite a bit on both ends during World War II and all the wars prior and since.

It's called life, get over it.

I was mad at her for about 3 seconds, then I realized she's just one of those women who can't stand to be alone. Some women always have to be with a man. That isn't her fault. I kind feel sorry for her new guy because if he gets deployed she will dump him too.

Would you have wanted to punch him in the face if he started a relationship with someone else or was having sex with someone else?

And why do you want to punch a woman in the face? Do you need to punch a woman in the face to feel better/good about yourself? Do you always want to punch a woman in the face when she does something you don't agree with?
