We've been married 34 years. Raised 5 children. All now adults, married with children of their own. A few weeks ago I got a girlfriend. Don't know how this new woman is going to pan out yet so for the sake of everyone: adult children, and our grandchildren, as well as my wife (cheating is a rotten thing to do; I feel like I would be giving her an emotional upper cut to the gut should I admit things to her), who I certainly care a great deal for, I'm keeping it all a secret for now. I simply don't love her anymore. I'm tired of the sameness of my life with her. I'm 4 years away from retirement and that life with her seems like a nightmare. Like an oncoming prison sentence. So is it normal that I cheat?

    No. By cheating, you're a no good piece of dishonest pond scum. Shame on you. No one should ever cheat and if they even get the slightest urge to cheat, they should divorce rather than harming the fragile bond they have to their lover. I just hope your kids aren't like you.

    Nope. You are a lowlife and part of what gives men a bad name. You should have just ended it first.

      Uh yeah this. You dont break up since you are a coward. You could have at least told your wife, you dont want to be with her anymore.

    Disgusting piece of shit. Dump your wife and give her the chance to find someone faithful and loving!

    You are only still with her as a back-up plan.

    Do her a favor and tell her, then get lost with your new ho'.
    All she ever did was give you 5 kids, the best part of her life, you're laundry, cleaned your skid marks and she should know it's all about you. You're not happy and you should have whatever you want.

    What a fucking asshole. Give your wife her freedom and then do whatever you damn well choose, but your actions are reprehensible as they stand.
    You have unilaterally decided that your marriage is over without even discussing it with the one person who has a right to know. Somehow, I don't believe you have ever loved anyone but yourself.

        Fuck you asshole. In 26 years of marriage I NEVER cheated even once. Go fuck yourself and YOUR judgmental ass. You don't know me and you obviously can't understand what being faithful means.

          So why dont you tell him how you made your marriage last...and just saying you never cheated...whippty fucking do....you want some medal pinned on your bony chest...good for you...now if your happy then thats something we would like to know how you did it...but if it sucked and you stayed out of some misguided notion of loyalty than thats your problem

            You obviously haven't been on here very long because everything you are saying is just stupid.
            The asshole OP doesn't want advice stupid, he's just bragging that he no longer gives a shit how much he hurts his wife just as long as he gets his dick attended to.
            I gather from your defense of him that you admire him and perhaps wish YOU could get some sex once in a while, huh?

              Im not married....not saying if thats good or bad..just stating a fact...I actually see good and bad ...I believe in zero sum...what we gain in one thing we lose in another...so it all evens out with nobodys life better or worse than another...I also believe in Karma..what goes around comes around...but Karma treats hurting someone intentionally different from unintentionally...so motive is important

              I have sex...not nearly as much as Id like thats true but this is not about sex...this is about pros and cons and hurting others

      I had a manger who did this. He walked his baby down the aisle and posted pics of his grandkid all over then shacked with some slut in the mailroom. The divorce cost him pretty much everything, including his kids didn';t want anything to do with him for treating their mother that way.
      When the manager got laid off, the mailroom slut dropped him, now he's a clerk at Home Depot and pretty much alone. I like to go to HD and tell him to take my stuff to the car, really dis' the basturd, lol.

    Go to couples counseling with your wife instead of cheating.

    U got some hardcore answers, but I don't think you sound terrible at all. Your kids are all grown, so they wouldn't suffer if you split with your wife. May as well have fun now before you die, honestly.

    Surprised how moral the site seems to be about this issue. With all the pervs, and everything running around this is really refreshing. Perhaps there is faith in humanity after all :)

        Don't listen to all these holier than thou judgemental hypocrite pieces of shit on here...believe me they are doing shit thats way worse but they just keep it to themselves...you ultimately have to live with yourself and there are consequences for our decisions...how would you want to be treated?

        You feel the way you feel...it will probably come out anyway

    Just keep your marriage and hide the mistress. Sex with the mistress only- keep her separated from you. Don't even use your phone- get a prepaid.

    Sorry that's an asshole thing of you to do. Honesty is truly the best policy. It may have hurt your wife in children at first but it's a lot better than them finding out about you cheating and tearing the family apart. That's a cruel thing to do.

    You really are a contemptible piece of shit.
    You can't get laid so you hate me for being happily married to a woman who'd laugh in your face if you approached her, as all women probably do.
    Admit it for once, you are a total loser with women and that's why you hate me so much.
