Kudos to you!! Attraction happens. Adultery doesn’t have to.

bet they go to the PTA meetings together ..
Maybe, but I would say that it’s actually worse in terms of social harm in that it leaves it’s victim alive and damaged, allowing the harm to spread.
I’m not saying that murder isn’t harmful, just that adultry is more harmful in the long run.
Murder is final. In theory the effects of adultery are not. I don’t really disagree as to your statements as to the long term effects of adultery. I myself think it is treated too lightly in contemporary thought and feeling. Indeed adultery often forms the basis of crimes of passion.
It’s not theory, you’re completely correct that murder is final while adultery is not. I likewise agree that adultery often forms the basis for crimes of passion, so in a way I could see adultery as a delayed form of murder.
All that aside, I completely agree that adultery is treated much too lightly by contemporary standards.
