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?
