greener grass

I am wondering and pondering on this old saying "THE GRASS IS ALWAYS GREENER ON THE OTHER SIDE"
but is it? Is it really? Says who? I am 'Switzerland' on this....because I think it truly depends on the situation and the circumstances.
Like, if someone is in an abusive relationship, not all relationships are like that, so therefore, the grass is greener on the other side.
Get my drift?
Or what about people who have affairs? They could be feeling BORED or UNAPPRECIATED in their relationship, or whatever their 'reason', at the end of the day, it is a poor excuse, because it is never okay to have an affair, too many people get hurt for that person's moment or ongoing moments.
I have known of alot of people who have had affairs, and realised it ain't all it is cracked up to be and their partner wasn't so bad after all.
I remember this woman, who my ex and I caught in a public place with her 'affair', she didn't know what to do when she saw us, she had waiting at home a husband and 2 kids. It put us in an awkward position because we didn't know if we should tell her husband. We ended up agreeing to stay out of it, knowing her guilt and fear would get the better of her and she would confess to her husband, probably worried we would tell him first.
So she ended up telling him, she then left her husband and her kids to be with the guy she was having the affair with, she ran off with him, didn't really bother with her kids for about 18mths, then broke up with the guy and wanted her fucking family back!!!!  Her husband didn't take her back and he has custody of their kids.
So there ya go, she thought the fucking grass was greener and she was fucking wrong! She ended up losing the guy, her husband and her kids!
Look, I totally understand that we aren't always truly happy or content with what we have, whether it be our relationships, our jobs, our homes. Someone is always gonna have life bigger and better, or so we think...
 Maybe the family across the road with the nice cars, the boat, the pets, the big modern house, the great jobs, the 5 kids, maybe they aren't always happy, maybe they sit and wonder about if the grass is really greener on the other side too?
I know I have thought it, I contributed big time to my marriage breakdown and I truly regret it all, all the shitty parts that got me to where I am now.

So my lovely wonderers and ponderers, have you ever wondered if the grass is greener on the other side? Have you taken that peek? If so, was it? Is it?

My mind is curiouser and curiouser!!!
