That's called settling...

Kudos for being ever wise in all of your immense self-righteousness, but not all of us were blessed with such insight from birth. Some of us had to gain it through experience and mistakes.

No it's not but as long as you all keep telling him that it is not only excusable but acceptable his conscious will be clear.....the only acceptable outcome besides my original post of rekindling the flame he promised to keep ignited till death do them part is for him to divorce her and end up being cheated on and infected with STD's by every skinny girl he thought was gonna give him what he was missing.....and his ex finds a real man who is equally devoted to her and lives happily ever after.

People make mistakes. Especially, when it comes to matters of the heart. I, for one, am not condoning his actions, but I do understand that these mistakes are made. It sucks when one makes a mistake that destroys another emotionally, but these things happen. There's no getting around that, and to think there is is simply naive.
I ask of you, which is the better option: Stay with a person you don't love and inevitably hurt them worse with dishonesty, or take the honest/hard route and at least be straightforward with the person you've wronged?
