For men, cheating is cheating, regardless of her feelings for the other man (a woman seeking to confess and make amends for a mistake would generally not be served well by the he-meant-nothing-to-me line). For women, cheating seems to range from the low end which would be a fling he had with a stranger in some other town and he'll never see her again to the high end where he's in love with the other woman and is ready to run off with her. She may still divorce him over the "low end" of cheating but will generally be more upset the more emotionally attached her husband is to the other woman.
My wife would cut my balls off if i ever strayed, she has made this plain.
You just have to clarify what is in it for her if you stray.
