Encomium
Marital vow is to be together in the atmosphere of fair play and fidelity till death do them part. They should be able to vouch for one another, irrespective of the circumstance. In recent times, spouses have been caught in sexual immorality. Some even indulge in it with reckless abandon.
A lot of damages might have been done before they come back to their senses. This was brought to limelight when ENCOMIUM Weekly sampled people’s opinion on what their reaction would be, if they catch their spouse in the act.
