Combat Infidelity-Be the Other Woman in Your Husband's Life



Much like the popular adage "If you can't lick them, join them", wives should try learning the craft of being the other woman in their husbands' lives, to prevent possible bouts with infidelity. We all know that wives are often assigned the roles of boring females who have lost their air of mystery and tend to be very predictable while mistresses are often always associated with exciting trysts hinting of risks and danger. A man who has become too bored in his marriage may consider an affair in the hope of bringing the spice back into his seemingly uneventful life.

The fact that boredom in marriage is not solved by having an affair has not prevented many married people from indulging in it to chase excitement. Others offer the justification that having an affair can actually help the marriage by providing the excitement that it obviously lacks. If we are to give any credit for this justification in the hearts of those who wish to remain monogamous, then it is time for doubtful wives to assume the role of being the other woman as well to their husbands.

Mistresses are stereotyped as loving, non-complaining, appreciative females who provide the continuous boost required by the male ego to feel good. Wives are unusually unable to manifest these traits because of the responsibilities and obligations that come with marriage. It would probably be a good idea to take some time off from the serious details of daily life to open up opportunities for mutual enjoyment between husband and wife that could work to rejuvenate the romance in the relationship.

Women should never neglect their appearance and strive to remain attractive and competitive even alongside younger and more physically endowed females. Although not all mistresses actually turn out to be more attractive than the wives, there are bound to be some physical reasons that could reinforce the urge to cheat. Come to think of it, husbands should also be thinking of ways to infuse excitement in the marriage by acting more like a lover to their bored wives. A couple who sees the signs of boredom creeping into the marriage should initiate ways to revive it between them instead of channelling their efforts outside.
