Magazine Editor Jessica Cumberbatch and Teacher Matthew Anderson struck up stimulating conversation at a lounge in NYC's West Village in 2004. Five years later, Jess and Matt are still interested in what each other has to say. They said 'I Do' with an outdoor ceremony in Brooklyn on August 22, 2009.

Don't know how to respond to all that, you sound confused. How can you say "I love my family" and "I cheat" in one breathe and think it sounds good. What about your vows???? I don't know if you're a Christian or not, but the bible says that cheating is inexcusable. In fact, God completely releases you from your marriage vows if your partner cheats on you. So, I just don't understand You.


 

How can you say you are honoring your vows when you are cheating. If value your vows like you claim, and you took that oath in front God, then that is the only reason you need to not cheat!

 

This is going to sound funny, but I'm ahappily married woman and I cheat. I understand why and how men and women cheat. Cheating is a way to recreate yourself and get away and have some fun on the side without the responsibitlies of the household. Now with me saying that, I know the women are shaking their heads that don't understand.
We go home to the family and our love ones and live our lives. When I cheat I leave everything at home and have fun. I'm a PTA mom, I volunteer, I donate, I cook for the school programs, college programs for African American students etc., but I leave that behind and do nothing but just ME some time and be with my friend on the side. I know the men understand what I just said and some of the ladies. We are not in a perfect world, and I am so not perfect, but I love myself, I love my family and I love my life. I'm educated, and I told my husband I would cheat if he got caught doing it, so her I am enjoy both worlds. I know some say divorce, but if you say that, then you don’t understand wedding vows. My home life I love it, my friend time..I lust it..call me wrong, but I'm happy. Both men are different, so I have the best of both worlds. Good luck with your love life everyone.
