I personally see no problem with it, if you're not happy then you should seek love elsewhere. If she insists on staying with you then how is it cheating?
It's cheating when you don't have the balls to tell your spouse that you're taking your junk to another woman's trunk. That's cowardly as well as douchy.
Virtually all marriages hit the rocks at some point. It's the guy who cannot face his own immaturity who bails without having the courage to tell his wife about it. He's just leading a lie to himself as well if he's unhappy.
Have you seen English women?

Particularly funny from a member who spends plenty of time there.
AAHHHHHHH I hate men who pay for sex.
Yes it's nasty.
And yes I would. Actually I'm in a similar situation right now - I liked a guy and he liked be back but I found out he likes to pay for hookers and got completely grossed out, don't want anything to do with him now
I don't blame you for that. If I were a woman, that's a line I'd be willing to draw.
But let's be honest about how this business works, however. Throughout the ages, there are cultural double-standards about virginal women to marry and sexually experienced men that have lead to this.
And yes, most global cultures are out of that trap that suggests that a guy has to marry a woman in order to get his rocks off and meet societal standards (see: the movie
Splendor in the Grass). Marriages based on a couple that go into it because its socially acceptable and yet it allows for sex are typically doomed to failure.
So what do we all do? Women in many cultures can now publicly admit they enjoy sex, but that's still a fine line. In a case like Rooney's, having sex with another, "non-professional" woman may have more downsides and implications regarding pregnancy, claims about the relationship, etc., which keeps the hooker business going for sports stars.
But yeah, the paid prostitute thing is still a bit gross.
