Do you know someone who knows that their SO is cheating?

One of my friends is still with her husband who gave an STD. Not a fatal one, but still an STD. I think she stays b/c they have a daughter together, but I wonder what she's really teaching her beautiful little girl.

I have a friend whose husband had 2 kids on her AND gave her an STD and lied about him having one

A woman at my home church is like this. Her husband denied their relationship before the marriage, even called her the day of to call it off. He's cheated with people in the church, produced outside children, even slept with his cousin's gf. He's also messing with people at work. She's still having children with him. Her reason is because she wants to keep the family name . To me, and other regular women, that family name isn't worth the embarrassment or potential disease.

smh @ these stories. It's one thing to forgive a one time occurrence of infidelity and a whole other matter when it's continuous yet you stay & are treated like doodoo on a shoe. Of course it's not easy to leave someone you love, break up finances, put children through it but being disrespected, potentially catching diseases, and the possibility that he can run off with any old woman doesnt sound like an easier path to me either.

As per the OP, I've heard things concerning some marriges of people I know but dont know personally whats going on.

What part of the game is that????? How does this come up in conversation?? So who does the wife have sex with? This is crazy on some many levels.... Who brought up these rules the husband or the wife??? So it it an open marriage??

It was in my grad school sex therapy class. The older women called themselves "schooling" us youngins on marriage and sex. erplexed I am related to one of them and did not want to know that about her sex life.
