And though neither one of them actually commits adultery, their thoughts alone are hurtful enough to each other that both the husband and the wife feel cheated on. It just goes to show that even though a man and woman may have a nice house, a child, and a stable relationship, there will always be temptations and sometimes not acting upon them is just as bad giving in to them.
