Creativity, marriage and infidelity ⇐ General

[Guest]

I think there are creative people on the forum, no matter who - writers, artists, actors (why not)? Since I myself also have some connection to creativity, I would like to ask a question. Not only creative people, but generally everyone who wants to speak out. Let me start with the fact that, it seems to me, one of the main enemies of the creative spirit is a happy marriage. But when “everything is complicated” for you and the relationship is tied in a sea knot (and it happens that there are more than one relationship), work, as they say, is rushing and in full swing. Falling in love, stress, infidelity - these are what drive inspiration. These are real muses, without whom you cannot write a good story, and you cannot play a role beautifully. I know from myself that while I was in a love marriage for almost 14 years, I didn’t write a single line. In any case, nothing worth publishing. And one more moment. I will call it conditionally “the right to infidelity” for creative people. I believe that for them such a right exists to a greater extent than for everyone else. The reason indirectly follows from what I stated above. Communicating with writers and actors, I came to the conclusion that adultery can become a real source of energy. A sudden surge of feeling (including a forbidden one) - here is the climax for the novel, a new interpretation of the theatrical role, a finished picture. And without an exciting adventure, you see, inspiration will fly away and never return.
