since more men cheat then women, does that mean we should hold every member of your gender responsible for every ill that a male does? especially since in both your case and this cop's it was the woman who did wrong, not the guy. he didn't make you any promises. though from the woman bashing in your post, i don't blame your wife for running as fast as she can!

Dude, I sympathize but what is he giving her that you aren't? If it's only physical, which is what it sounds like from your next-to-last sentence, then you have no excuse. There are things you can get to, ah, "improve" your performance. To put it bluntly, if you aren't supplying the salami, don't be surprised when she starts shopping at another deli. On the other hand, if you're just an a-hole, there's no fix for that. Sorry.

Hmm, everyday this cop deals with people who state that they "lost it" because their spouse cheated or was "talking" to someone on the computer. What is good for the goose is good for the gander.... NO EXCUSES!!! Cop did the crime and cop should do the time.

Yeah it is the wifes/womans fault. Seems to me she got smart & dumped your women are chattle idea. Good for her.

How do any of you know what the emails were about? It doesn't state that anywhere. It also doesn't say she was leaving him for the friend. Maybe this guy just had too much stress built up and instead of communicating with his wife acted out. He shouldn't have been going through her email anyway. That just shows the state of mind he was in. Probably stressed, not at home much and started getting jealous or something.

It is not only women that are cheating on their husbands. It is just as easy for a man to meet someone online and leave his wife and family. I see it happen all of the time.

Im really sorry to hear that. Its not just women though, its both sexes. I will pray for your family.

Iam not you....but if I were, I would leave the house get your own apt., indeed always take care of your children. I don't know all the facts but from what your saying, its best now to leave. Don't argue or point fingers....your wife will have to find out its not always green at the end of the tunnel. Good Luck ! Always be a good Dad,,,,thats what matters !

I am so sorry for you. Hope that things work out for your children.

To Father of 7,
You sound like a terrific father, and husband. I hope you wife comes to her senses, befores she joins someone she knows nothing about. Unfortunately, some people think the "grass is greener on the other side," when in fact the grass is actually a bunch of weeds. I will say a prayer for you, and your family that all returns to the way it was.

life's not all about screwing, then you should stop. 7 kids

well i can say from first hand experience, that i can totally relate. my ex, with whom i had sex every day, sometimes a couple times a day, and did everything to keep the spice in it, was on craig's list trying to hook up with women. sending them emails saying he was single and would love to meet them. all the while saying he "never, ever" tried to hook up with anyone and he said it a "million" times that he would never do that. oh and sent some really raunchy messages to women on porn sites, how he jo'd to their pictures, love to hear from them. here, it was going on for months. so there are people who just don't have morals and who just don't care about the other person. when you say you love someone, mean it. if you don't want to be in a relationship, go screw whoever, don't say you want a relationship. and guess who suffers in the end, all the kids involved.

I am so sorry about your situation. I feel for you. Facebook is a dangerous thing. My pastor even speaks ill of it. Says you shouldn't be on it if you are married unless it's as a couple. My spouse cheated on me. It is a horrible thing to go through. I hope from the bottom of my heart that you and your wife can work it out. Divorce is horrible!

Seven kids in eleven years? Wow sounds like you just want to keep your wife barefoot and pregnant. Maybe she's looking for a way out of the trap she's in. After all we are only hearing your side, and it involves a lot of women blaming. When men cheat its always been no big deal, but if a women cheats shes a homewrecker, sl@t, wh@re, and so on.

MARTINSBURG - A high ranking Martinsburg City Police officer was arraigned Monday on one count of misdemeanor battery after allegedly assaulting a man late last week at a cheerleading practice while off duty.
Lt. John Sherman Jr., of Martinsburg, later told investigating officers with the West Virginia State Police that he believed the man was having inappropriate contact with his wife via social networking sites on the Internet.
The 45-year-old police lieutenant has since been placed on administrative leave with pay by the department.
Several attempts seeking comment from Martinsburg Police Chief T.C. "Ted" Anderson were made Monday, and messages left with his secretary were not returned.
According to court records, at 7:32 p.m. Thursday, Trooper 1st Class J.B. Flanigan and Cpl. J.D. Burkhart responded to the Martinsburg Church of Christ at 9512 Tuscarora Pike for a report of a fight in progress.
Upon arriving at the scene, Flanigan spoke with the victim, identified as Larry "Tike" Murphy. When asked where the other party involved in the fight was, the victim said Sherman had already left, but he said that the man's wife was still there.
Murphy told police that Sherman had approached him while he was sitting in a chair reading a book at his daughter's cheerleading practice.
Murphy told police that Sherman had approached him asked him if he was "Tike." When he said yes, Murphy said Sherman punched him in the face.
"The victim tried to cover up as the defendant continued the physical assault on him as he fell to the ground."Murphy said Sherman also pounded him on the back and ripped his shirt.
When Murphy managed to get away from Sherman, he asked him what was going on. At that point, he said Sherman was screaming profanities at him about sending his wife messages on MySpace and Facebook.
"The defendant went on to yell 'this isn't over you better leave, because you're a (expletive) dead man," records state.
During the altercation, Sherman's wife was screaming at him, trying to get him off the victim, records.
When asked if he had any prior problems with Sherman, Murphy told police his wife was best friends with Sherman's wife, but he said he had never really spoken with him.
The left side of the victim's face was slightly swollen and red, and police also noted he had red marks on his back and around his neck where his shirt was torn.
Flanigan also obtained three separate audio statements from witnesses who saw the incident, while Burkhart obtained a statement from Sherman's wife. All four statements coincided with the victim's account and injuries, records show.
Sherman told the officer he was upset over a personal matter involving his wife, and also said he found communications that were made via the Internet between his wife and Murphy that were inappropriate.
"Mr. Sherman advised he did not believe it was right that another man was communicating with his wife by Internet, sending some of the things he was sending to her," records state.
Sherman didn't elaborate about the content of the messages when he was interviewed by police. Police had not examined the content of the messages.
"We didn't look into them. We really didn't feel that was necessary," Burkhart said.
Sherman later told police he confronted Murphy and "did what I did," records show. During the interview, Sherman didn't deny hitting Murphy, but never stated that he did hit him.
