    Yup.

    This is an odd question, I'm guessing most people know someone like this.

    Is this suggesting that those who know these people have some sort of obligation to take action?

    I would say most of us have, so what is the point of your question? I think you may be leading to the idea that monogomy is "outdated" and is not natural. If I'm wrong with that assumption, I apologize.

    I have friends who had a spouse that had an indiscretion and never went that way again and they moved past that and remained happily married for decades, some almost 50 years. The problem cases of spouses who are prolific philanderers are doomed. IMO People like that should remain single.

    I was just curious, that's it. I've never been married and it's not a goal in my life. I know men and women, first hand, that have violated their marriage vows, specifically sexual "exclusiveness". In all cases, the prevailing thought is; "what my mate doesn't know, wouldn't hurt them." Perhaps, I would not know. But I do know it's more prevalent than people want to believe. Ashley-Madison is just the tip of an iceberg. There is also the fact that many men are not being unfaithful with another women. (Generic name; Downlow)

    This really has nothing to do monogamy. it has to do with the sacredness of a vow. Yes some people move past that and many others don't. That's called a guilty conscience." Some rationalize their supposed transgression(s) away.

    I believe we all know people who have done that.

    Not too difficult to figure out why. Casting aside the fact we are wired to mate, a large number of people live in the moment and are selfish. Too many people spend eight hours a day with someone of the opposite sex. After which come home to a few hours with their spouse and thats assuming there aren't kids of various ages that need to be taken care of first. I won't say its an excuse but it should be acknowledged that these factors right or wrong do exist and can impact marriages.
