One business which is seeing surprising growth is that of online sites catering to cheating. One site reported that 355,000 Texans have signed up for its services, which cater to cheaters. The service reports increases from the metropolitan area of Houston, Dallas and Fort Worth. One of the surprising findings is that the increase is also being seen among newlyweds. I suspect that these trends are not limited to Texas. There is a growing epidemic in the amount of infidelity occurring.
To put it in perspective, Texas had 7.3 million households in 2000. The 355,000 number of online cheating service users represents .04% of all Texas households. 55,755 Texans were divorced last year. The number of persons cheating is several times greater than the number of couples divorcing.
Services like these make it easier to damage your marriage. It is always easier to damage a marriage than it is to repair one.
