St. Peter greeted three men at the gates of Heaven and said, "Everyone gets transportation here, but the type of vehicle depends on how good you were to your wife."
The first man says, "I never, ever two-timed my wife and I love her". So St. Peter gives him a Rolls Royce.
The next man comes up and says, "I cheated on my wife a little but I still love her." He gets a Ford Mustang and drives off.
The third man announces, "I was a big two-timer!" St. Peter gives him a scooter.
The next day, the two-timing scooter man sees the man with the Rolls Royce sitting on the side of the road crying.
He asked, "Why are you crying when you have such a nice car?"
"Because my wife just went by on roller skates."
Origin: Two-timing probably stems from the idea of having "two at a time."
