The effects of cheating on the spouse can be lasting and may forever change her outlook on

relationships and life. A second relationship or marriage could suffer repercussions stemming from the
previous marriage if the victimized spouse has not healed. Many second husbands have reported
spousal punishment because of the previous husband's errors. These scarred women, often severely
misunderstood, are said to be "angry," "bitter," or "mad" when they are actually afraid, wounded, and
not healed.

Cheating is never right in a marriage or any relationship, and excuses are not acceptable. Consequences
are devastating for all involved, especially the offended spouse and children. Even the cheaters endure
the negative consequences of their poor choices. They may be alienated by family and friends and may
have to undergo a financial change due to a divorce and settlements.
