Jabber, I too actually thought I was in a happy marriage until I found out her was cheating on me while I was pregannt with our second child.

In my case, the woman who "came along" and led to my husband cheating on me had brown hair and actually wasn't that attractive. Also she wasn't as smart, had a vile temper and smoked and drank too much.

But I think she made him feel like he was a "big shot" and I confess I wasn't doing much of that -- to busy working and taking care of the kids while his job took him out of town for weeks at a time...

He told me he "didn't love her, but he wouldn't give her up."

In retrospect, I believe she stroked his ego, while I had forgotten how to do that...
