It sounds like that couple had problems already and this was just the straw that broke the camels back.

I agree that cheating is something I couldn't ever forgive. I HATE it when cheaters use the lines, "It just happened!" or "It was an accident!" or "I didn't mean to". As if it's impossible to say no to sex whenever the temptation hits.

Some couples move on and stay together after one of them has an affair. But I'm sure the trust is never completely repaired (even if the cheater never cheats again).

The only way sex can be an accident is if it involves identical twins.

At a church I go to, a guy admitted that he'd cheated on his wife, and that they'd reconciled and, allegedly, their marriage is stronger than ever. Me, I just don't see myself getting over it, and I can't see me ever being able to look at her, or touch her, ever again, thanks to that kind of knowledge. I'd even go several steps further and get DNA tests. If the kid's not mine, they're both out the door, and I'm suing somebody. Sure, it wasn't the kid's fault (though if he knew about the situation and didn't tell me, then we couldn't even be friends, either), but its not mine and I refuse to be saddled with the responsibility of paying for somebody else's kid that was conceived by cheating on me.
