I just don't get why anyone would satisfy themselves while causing another man pain and discomfort knowing they have the skills to get another woman of equal or better value at the drop of a dime.

To this final question, I would say all. This makes cheating a dangerous game. Hurting someone makes it likely that you will in turn be hurt, in an unforeseeable way. This is a better understanding of karma.
Yeah, good points of both of you.
Why would anyone satisfy himself while causing pain to somebody else. Well, in all honesty, i would say: pure egoïsm. I know in my case it would be egoïsm. I thrive on those feelings of raw lust and desire. And i do look for value in a woman, but i would prefer somebody who is 'occupied' but intensly sexual over a single woman who has 'good moral' and doesnt cheat. I guess from that point of view, it is pretty ugly.
To slip n slide, i like your understanding of karma better, as you seem to insinuate that people might get the effect of what they have caused, not from a devine power, but just because people might be vengeful. That is true. Many ugly things have happened because of cheating.
But still, it wouldnt stop me. There is no way of figuring out why, and with these good arguments you could say: you are just plain stupid as you refuse to look forward and see the pain you might cause. And you are right, but it wouldnt be my pain, and that is the ugly truth.
cheers. Btw, this is a nice discussion.
