I feel this is the only reason why marriages doesn't last for longer in foreign. Broad mindedness should also have some limits. And it is showing that even after 18 years of marriage also they might not be having any emotional connection in between.

That's really strange. I guess such couples don't go for marriage if they want such relation. Well its their choice. 

I agree with you AKP. Such people should not go for marriage instead they should go for living relationship if they want to do all this but after all its their choice to do what they like. In India we don't hear such news but it happens in India as well but not up to this extent.

Yes it happens in every corner of world. If two people are happy with it than no matters. But yes they should leave the marriage option in that case.

Ha..haa to be it is not broadmindedness, but promiscuousness at its height. No man or woman when married can allow their spouse to do such a thing.

LOL! May be they realized it after 18 years of marriage that they are not perfect for each other. And they started dating again as its never too late if you have realized it. "jab jaago tabhi sawera". 

What we are talking about ? Is it about humans or things in the cupboards, which can be changed and thrown away at will ? Such threads are controversial and speak about the pseudo culture hovering over our heads. Thankfully this did not happen in India. Who can say....

It happens in India also but not up to this extent. I know a case where a married women was having affair with his boyfriend and also she was having affair with other man and later on she married that man also and both her husbands do not have any problem and are living together happily. It is not up to that extent what this lady did but still this is also wrong.

Each one to his own...On the flip side, if men can go on bedding women and have mistresses on the side as and when they want and still go on with the farce of mariage like it has been happening here for centuries, why not women?

You are right mam that why should women stay behind but why to follow wrong footsteps. If someone wants to do so then isn't it better for them to get divorce and separated and then do so.
