If you marry, and part of that ceremony is about being faithful to the one you marry, then that is that.

Her explanation sounds like a jolly good excuse to me! I admire her ingenuity!

I hope that you will find someone who is willing to keep their promises.

Are you Taoist too? It sounds as though she feels she can be married and yet still have an open relationship, to see other men. If that's not what you want and you can't forgive her again, then leave her. Life is too short to be unhappy.

A lot of us could fall for someone else but marriage is about commitment and taking the rough with the smooth. We all go through ups and downs. I hope things work out for you Chente.

Well, yes many people fine an ‘ist’ that appeals to them & that they believe in, which could well be the case with your wife, on the other hand she could be cynically using this as an excuse to have her cake and eat it. You don’t say if you are currently together or not,either way IMO it’s down to you to decide what you want to do about it, don’t let someone else dictate how you live, decide what is acceptable & right for you,best wishes

I separated from my wife because of her infidelity. On the first occasion, I forgive her and we were reconciled, but over the years another man appeared and she fell in love again. When I asked her, she answered me this:
The feelings of Love are something beautiful and should be cause for celebration and not sorrow. I have no owner, nobody has bought me, I do not belong to anyone, nobody sends in my mind or my feelings, I am free to receive the gifts that Heaven wants to give me without asking for permission or forgiveness for it. I have been faithful to Love. I know that it sounds hard but if you see it well no one can send in the Spirit not even oneself.

She is Taoist, because she studied acupuncture in a school of Chinese Traditional Medicine.
What do you think about this?
