Cheater-Speak: “You weren’t doing enough.”

“You weren’t pulling your weight in this family. So, I was all alone and overwhelmed with everything. That’s why I cheated,” says Cheater.

The poor overwhelmed cheater was able to make space in her calendar to lie, steal, and risk the physical well-being of their spouse.

Such a cheater is trying to illicit pity in order to get off the hook for her sins. A wise person does not take the bait.

Should we excuse men for visiting hookers who use this line?

Of course, not.

It is still adultery, and it is still sinfully wrong.

This goes for females making a similar excuse. We never are given permission to sin. A person thinking otherwise is a person still operating from a carnal perspective and not a godly one.
