You really don't know that. Ive opened accounts out of curiousity on some ridiculous sites. Its interesting to see how many profiles are fake or crazy or ridiculous. Maybe you shouldn't judge someone you know nothing about. Just because he is a man, doesn't make him a criminal.
I agree with this. I was actually just remembering a time that a guy from my work got one of those spam emails from Russia saying she was looking for love and with a website attached. We both laughed but out of curiosity joined the site just to laugh, didn't pay just joined for a look. He is married. I am sure he told his wife about it since I know her and she would laugh. But the truth is, who knows why someone might look at something.
And no, it's not my job to monitor my husband's internet use and whereabouts all the time. If he doesn't love me and our family enough to be faithful, then I don't want him. People spend so much time snooping/trying to change people, worrying, and in the end, it really does all come down to if you have a solid relationship and trust the person. If you feel in your heart that this person is not trustworthy, you are wasting you time anyways, and why bother.
Heck, if DH and (works with 80% guys) the guys were talking, and from that he was curious about some online dating something, he would just tell me what they were saying and would set-up an account in front of me and we would both probably look and comment..... That's because the intent was innocent, and he wouldn't want me in inadvertently run across an account on a dating (or bride, whatever) BECAUSE IT LOOKS REALLY BAD.
agreed it would be a fun social experiment to do as a couple... Never with the intent to act upon it but purely for entertainment.
Have you been in a relationship before? Maybe there is no threat of you cheating, so there is no concern, but for a lot of men, we need to be checked by a strong female.
I'm scratching my head on this one. So you're saying that because some men cheat, that women need to check on their men to make sure they're not cheating? I'm sorry, but that is a gross invasion of privacy with no assumption of proof. I've been in enough relationships to know when the trust is not there, there is nothing. If I found out my girlfriend was snooping on my accounts, computer, etc, the relationship will be over. Not because I'm guilty of anything, but because she doesn't trust me. I'd feel my privacy was violated and I wouldn't be able to go out or do anything with friends or on my own personal downtime without having that magnifying glass over me or that feeling I would be interrogated or accused of something I never did. Trust is the foundation of any healthy relationship.

LOL.
Because thay's EXACTLY what I said...that he's "a criminal."
No, I am asking people if they consider this cheating or not. Having opinions sometimes is helpful. Some perspectives here have already helped me feel better for example.
So, basically you want US to decide for YOU what your parameters are going to be.
A mature woman who is ready for a relationship already KNOWS the answer to that question and others like it, as well as how she is going to handle the situation should it arise. It becomes a cut and dried issue ("Yes it's cheating and I'm walking away" or "No it's not, and I'm choosing to stay.").

Yeah, well, I don't trust anybody, so I don't mind if my girl doesn't either. It is what it is and if she finds anything it's because I'm up to no good.
