cry me a river. plenty of women in this day and age cheat on their BFs for what they consider a better deal.

fact is, human beings are always looking to trade up and get the best deal they can.

LOL, I wouldn't either!

In my opinion, the wife looks good for 60 and the mistress looks like she has smoked a few too many cigarettes, not exactly beauty.

At any rate, what he did was wrong.

I wonder if he had to take a little blue pill before meeting his mistress each time?

What he did was very wrong... I still have a feeling he was probably a control freak at home, didn't want his wife looking good (i.e., other men looking at her), he had a role in mind for her which was wife and mother and it appears she fulfilled that role.. there are always two sides to every story and we only know what the media has given... even that I'm sure has been blown out of this galaxy.
He cheated, true. He did the right thing by resigning. I hope his wife can rebuild her life.

I guess I'm not plenty of women then. I've NEVER cheated, NEVER even been tempted to cheat.

I don't look to trade up, I want to find someone who I can grow old with, wrinkles, frumpiness and all.

I mean , they been married for 40yrs. So I'm pretty sure she's looked like that for a minute.I also don't see how you can compare his 30yr old mistress to his 60(SIXTY) yr old wife.

And no offense, but she looks like your average 60yr old white woman to me. I personally don't think she looks bad at all

I'm in no way saying to let yourself go. But men in general act like their woman isn't supposed to age. Eventually gravity takes its toll, and looks will fade.

And to be fair, if this dude wasn't in the position he was in, I'm pretty sure that broad wouldn't have been sleeping with him. He too looks like the average 60yr old
Yep! I think he and his wife look evenly matched, "average" 60 year olds. This is what a "normal" couple looks like as they age, nothing unusual about it.

Some clip today showed Paula Broadwell sitting in partial profile, across some table from Petraeus, and homegirl's got a more severely receding hairline than he does, and he's got, what, 20+ years on her...

Fact is, though, it turned out to actually NOT be a better deal for the sucker. People aren't so good at assessing that, y'know?

I still think it's a shame that he lost his career. I don't think he should have had to.

The mistress sounds like a wacko to me.
