        I wouldn't restrict this to "cheating", which is breaking fidelity  
by action. I would extend it to breaking fidelity by inaction.

        Too much emphasis in this culture is placed on the prohibitive part  
of the marriage vows. Everyone gets that the vows say you can't have  
sex with anyone else, but they completely miss the proscriptive part,  
which says that you *will* have sex with your partner; that you are  
responsible for your partner's sexual satisfaction.

        How many marriages do you know of after, say, the third year, where  
the husband doesn't feel that his wife isn't keeping up her end of  
the deal? How can that not build resentment? How can that ever be  
good for a marriage?
