And why would we care less about our appearance at home than for people we meet at work or other places? No reason to be running around in a housecoat at home unless a person is ill. I for one dress for my family and don't give a hoot if my appearance pleases others or not, if my spouse finds me attractive then the rest of the world can abstain from looking at me if I offend them by how I dress.
I must say that the number of people that I know that cheat are not amongst those I want to be around or call friends. Being flattered by some pompous idiot trying to impress the world doesn't hold water for me.
Funny, I thought our vows said for better or worse, in sickness and in health, till death do us part. I guess the vows must have changed while I wasn't looking.
People who cheat are people who let frivolous crap go to their heads and are out looking for a good time, they never did mean to commit. Relationships take hard work, some people don't want that, they prefer looking at life as a bowl of cherries.
Excellent post. Perhaps people who cheat in marriage are just too spineless to tell their partner that they want to end the relationship, or having many women/blokes on the go gives them a sense of personal power. Either way, I don't get it, and I personally couldn't look someone I'm supposed to care about in the eye whilst being concious of my own infidelity.

And as for a lioness being on the prowl, here she is in the thread... she's in my signature, and as you can see, she is very much awake.
