AvatarNot long ago, I received a wrenching call from a dear friend, distraught over her husband’s confession of infidelity.  I tried to listen, give comfort, and be a friend.  Isn’t that what we all do when a sisterfriend is falling apart?  Inside, I wanted to strangle him!  His reason for confession was that he was seeking reconciliation and forgiveness.  He disclosed every detail of the affair(s) to her, and though she was devastated, she was receptive to counseling and eager to find a way to keep her family together.
A few days later, my friend, who was still in a state of hurt, confusion, and despair, was tracked down (STALKED) on a social networking site by one of the most recent mistresses.  Yes, this woman had the nerve to send my friend an email stating her love for the husband, and her desire to “make a life” with this man.  Um, dumb mistress, why would you harass the VICTIM in this case??  You knew he was married when you threw yourself at him, and he’s obviously struggling with an addiction issue here, so that makes you an ignorant, self-centered b-word!!  To me, this is an unforgivable intrusion on my friend’s life, and I really hope I never see this “woman”, a term I use to loosely describe her.  You don’t mess with my girlfriends!
Here’s the question I’ve been pondering since my friend reported this to me:  Why does a woman get involved with a married man, and believe what he tells her about his wife, his home life, and his feelings about her?  Using that brain God gave you would be a great idea in this case.  Why are some women incapable of using good judgment?  Now, don’t get me wrong, her husband is a big boy, and he has committed a significant, possibly marriage-ending indiscretion, so he’s got a lot of making amends to do.  Oh, and by the way, I’ve seen a picture of the one who harassed my friend, and she is not even a little bit attractive.  Not that looks are everything, but come on men!  If you’re gonna fool around on your wives, at least make sure it’s not with some ugly chick (OK, I kid—you men need to keep it in your pants, unless you’re peeing or you’re with your wife).  
Whew.  Sorry I had to get personal this time, and I hope I have not rubbed salt in anyone else’s wounds, but it seems like I’ve heard of this happening more and more these days, and I’m pretty sure it’s an epidemic.  Wake up, people!!  Make good choices!  Life’s too short to be screwing around, and leaving nothing but destruction in your wake.  Seriously.
