Do you think cheating on your spouse is a matter worth divorcing over?

Yes, in some ways it is. Take into consideration how many times and most will say once a cheater always one. Do you want to be second best? I personally could maybe forgive one time, but I am sure the trust would be gone and they would have to prove to me I could trust again...N

Infidelity is the only acceptable reason that the bible recognizes for divorce Mathew 5:31&32 (Sermond on the mount)

you make a promise to stay faithful to your spouse, you went behind the spouse's back and broke that promise. all trust is shattered, if it can be fixed or if the spouse wants to even attempt to fix it who knows. Yeah I'd say that's divorce material

That is a great question you should put in in a poll; yahoo should have a pool here as well.
But I think it all depends on the situation, sometimes a controlling and insecure spouse can actually drive the other in the arms of another. And it is quite difficult for McDonald to just throw away say 10 years of his life's time investment because Wendy decided to taste Burger King, even after she admit that she didn't like it....Its too big she says, but would he believe it.....Would you believe that a one time cheater is just that.....I think not, fact is the taste of something knew or new sometimes remind you of what its like driving a new car in a sense.
Not all men like new cars, they are perfectly comfortable with the old hoopty at home, doesn't cost much and it gets him where he is going
But some men for the thrill of the ride, if offered to test drive the new mercedes would go for a ride.

Yes. Cheating is not just a physical matter but the trust that each one of you for each other would be affected greatly - marriage without trust is a nightmare.

my wife and i talked about cheating before we started dating and decided that if one of us ever cheated it woul mean immediate divorce. after being married for a few years the topic again came into discussion as i found myself in a situation where i thought about cheating. i talked it over with my wife and she was very upset. however, we worked it out (i neve cheated in case you misunderstood only thought about it) and she said that if i had she would have forgave me. a sexual relationship is all about trust, without it what else do you have. it takes a lifetime to build trust and only the accusation of infidelity (not proof) to break it. good luck and make a sound decision.

Oh Hell yeah! *L*

Once a spouse has cheated, it's hard to rebuild the trust - even if both parties WANT to reconcile - it can take years to undo the damage that was done.

In some cases, it's reparable, others not at all.

When you marry someone, you're supposed to be faithful and loving until death do you part... not until you see the next hot chick/guy around the corner.

And people wonder why there's so many divorces these days...

Yes because for a marriage to work you must have love, respect, and trust. Cheating breaks all those elements needed for a successful marriage.

H E L L YES!! Trust is over and gone....thats why I got divorced!! and now happily remarried, and trust my new one 100%

Yes
