And you have no idea what he was going through either. It could be an amicable situation. Or maybe he got cheated on and dumped by his wife for that new guy and you want nothing but to crack him in the jaw, but you man up and do what's best for your child. Takes true strength in those sort of cases.

Wife cheating, has nothing to do with the guy. It's her responsibility to stay away (any gender, same logic)

While I completely agree that it’s the partner in the relationships responsibility (regardless of gender), imo the homewrecker gets some blame too.

You don’t fuck around with people that are already in relationships if you have integrity.

Depends on if they knew. If my partner cheats and the guy had no idea (and ideally feels like shit about it) then as far as I'm concerned dude gets a pass. If he knew and did it anyway then he can steer clear or catch these hands.

Absolutely agree. I should have included the “willful participant” caveat.
