Interesting that you mention issues Guinevere. I sometimes find myself entertaining the thought of cheating, and I have to admit I've thought about it too much for my own good, and I've often wondered what is wrong with me, what is wrong in my head that I think/feel this way. I have even played out scenarios in my head where the wife and I go to a marriage counsellor and I spill my guts on why I think the marriage is having problems and I come up with all kinds of reasons like stress over financial situations, a sex life that was messed up from the very beginning etc.
The truth is I don't know why I think about cheating so much. I am not messed up. I don't have a long history of psychological issues and stuff. I come from a very strong two parent family. I have never been abused. I have never suffered any psychological trauma.
The best reason why I can think I consider cheating is the 'grass is always greener' philosophy. But I know it isn't.
