Does the cheater prosper?

I saw this question come up on the Relationship forum and thought this could be a good discussion piece.  Does the cheater or the woman who he chose over the other one really prosper?  What's your thoughts on this?

Prime example of how the grass isn't greener.  I've written about my friend whose son's father cheated on her and they split when their child was 7 months old.  Well she broke up with him but he wound up staying with the woman he cheated on her with and there isn't one day that goes by that he doesn't regret losing my friend.  He still after almost 2 and a half years apart, begs for her to take him back.  He's miserable with this girl, he has no relationship with his son, his family doesn't talk to him and he lost all of his friends.  His girlfriend gets physical with him and she always accuses him of cheating on her.  Karma is a b!tch!

Although at the moment he/she thinks that they are in a good place after infidelity, the reality is that it will catch up to them. I believe in Karma and sooner or later their conscience will haunt them, especially when they realize that the grass is not always greener on the other side. For them it's a power, selfish act, not caring or insensitive to what they are doing to the other person. They then find themselves in this triangle that is difficult to get out of and they also get use both women and when one leaves they panic and realize the pain they cause.

There are many reason why men or women cheat.

* Opportunity - when someone takes notice of them...they enjoy the attention.
  or literally throw themselves at them.
* Unhappy in marriage or relationship.
* It just happens sometimes.
* To get back at partner for whatever reason

As we all know, it's very destructive, hurtful and stays with you, but I also believe there in some cases, you are able to forgive a cheating partner and try to rebuild the relationship. It's case can be different.  judy
