I agree it's one sided. I think...Don't Bet:<br />I agree it's one sided. I think that was the point. <br />Having said that, as much as I love Julie, I don't agree that having an affair benefits a marriage.<br />In her case I think that it revealed a lot of cracks in her marriage, and I think this was the way that she fixed things.<br />But, she's been pretty clear in interviews that she's not suggesting that an affair fixes things.<br />In answer to your question - I have no idea which marriage would last better - kids or no kids.<br />That's a tough question and I'm no expert on it. <br />In a way I don't think kids have that much to do with the survival of things. Maybe you're more willing to work through it for the sake of the kids? But, then, maybe the stresses of parenthood would push you to that extreme? But then, if you don't have kids I guess you have more flexibility to play around?<br />Don't know.<br />I do know that she can only write from her experiences. As we can.<br />I do find it fascinating that she's one person and so many people (not implying you) feel that her writing can cause the destruction of the institution of marriage.Laural Dawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08459584652802529868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15924860.post-84058751146118957532010-03-16T22:43:09.237-07:002010-03-16T22:43:09.237-07:00Interesting but one-sided article.

I guess since Powell doesn't have any children, she wouldn't be familiar with possible ramifications on the family, as a whole - rather than just the 'relationship' with the partner.<br /><br />So, which marriage would have a better chance of lasting through infidelities? One where the partners only have to consider themselves and their spouse, or a marriage/relationship in which a cheating partner has to work through improving and healing bonds with their children after they have cheated?don't_bet_on_the_princehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11247181913808540246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15924860.post-31163161268988038972010-03-15T13:14:30.817-07:002010-03-15T13:14:30.817-07:00Thanks, Anonymous.

It was very "chic lit" and I don't think you're like that.
