Nope, cheating is not romantic in any way, not even when you throw in the 'marriage' of the cheaters. 1*
Australia has one of the highest infidelity rate in the world. Near 80%. All people there do it, so it isn't seen as something that is a big deal. More like, eh it is a part of life.
Similar with France(it's actually expected to occur in France.
As the Anonymous poster just pointed out, here in OZ, these days the younger ones seem to treat cheating as no big deal. Hell, most of them have cheated at least once in their young lives.
I was pleased how this little tale turned out. Both couples mended fences and moved on in a loving fashion. What is wrong with that?
As an Aussie,I just don't get the angst with the cheating bit, it happens. Just because you don't like it doesn't mean you should give a story a score of 1. I don't like the willing cuckold stories but if they are well written I will score them as I see fit. I don't just give them a 1 because of my bias.
Thank you all for the comments, though. They are the only way I will improve. I have taken to heart to write as an Aussie,it has helped a lot.
Surprised his sister is with Brian and yet they discussed the guest list? One of many little inconsistencies that make this outline of a story fail. And it really appears to be no more than an outline.
Wow, I'm an aussie, never cheated, and first time I'm hearing those statistics. Is it any wonder the younger generation can't stay in a relationship these days when its just an accepted fact of life according to people like this author who think its okay to cheat? 1*
Nowhere did I say I approved of cheating. I can understand it because I have teen age grandkids as well as 3 sons. Now their attitudes and their friends' attitudes are much different to mine. Hell, I have been married to the same saint of a woman for 45 years.
I have re-read my little tale and have taken note of a couple of confusing points in it.Thanks to those who pointed them out, also I agree it is not a complete story as the characters have not been fleshed out enough. I will try and do better as I go along.
Just a bunch of unlikable cheaters. With the IQ of rocks. With idiots for characters, poor writing and dialogue written by monkeys at a keyboard, this just wasn't fun or entertaining to read.

what a sorry bunch of people. next chapter should be the fire works of divorce between julie and brian. once a cheater...anyone sorry enough to have an affair with best friends hubby...she will probably cheat before hubby does...maree and rob are too stupid to be walking around...
