True story- had some neighbors, they seemed like the typical couple, a few kids, nice home, etc. I moved away, ran into the husband a few years later. I ask about his wife & he says that they've been divorced for quite some time. After he learned what she was doing while he was at work, he was done. She was going on websites for cheaters, & swingers as well & hooking up w/these guys whenever & wherever she could.
Seeing as he was a devoted & faithful husband, a good dad & a nice guy, it really shocked me at how sleazy some people secretly are.
It happened to me.
It was shocking and hurtful.
We broke up about an hour after I noticed this on our shared computer.
I can see it. Someone already brought up polyamory which is something that interests me. That is not really "messing around."
Staying single means living alone and I would prefer not to do that much longer. I'm sure there are many others that feel the same way. I'm open-minded and flexible.

Idk how long you were together, but that couple had something like 18 years together, 2 kids & portrayed themselves as the couple with it all. She blew it. How absolutely sleazy & disgusting. He would always be out there, fixing things taking care of the home, bbq-ing in the summer, playing with the kids. And it wasn't enough for her. She really wasn't all that much to look at either. So she had it all, & pi$$ed it away just to be sleazy. He got custody, the kids are grown now & they have nothing to do with her

Almost exactly 8 years. We were married 6+ of them.
"Life is too short" is one of my most detested phrases. Life is too short...so you can justify cheating, lying, breaking someone's trust and their heart? Life is too short...so cast aside any sort of values, any kind of self-respect, any kind of honor? Life is too short...so go on out and get you some and don't worry about the people you mow down in the process? Can't stand that phrase because it is so often used to justify extremely poor behavior.
<stepping off soapbox and stalking away, muttering to self>
My most hated phrase is, "You deserve..." It rather mirrors your phrase as though there is an issue of entitlement to this behavior. It reminds me of an often-used catch phrase from the 60's, "If it feels good, do it." All of them are simply lame excuses for irresponsible behavior and an abdication of responsibility.
To be honest, and I'll probably get a few stones thrown at me, I'm not mad at this website's creator for the website.
1. A cheater is gonna cheat whether they are encouraged or not.
2. If said cheater didn't have the website, they'd just find another medium to meet people to cheat with.
3. No business would succeed if there wasn't a market for it. Tyler Perry is probably writer ever but he keeps making money because people go to his movies. Same thing with this.
More power to the creator who is making a living off of this.
I agree. It's a skeezy website and I'm sure the owner is no Atticus Finch himself but ultimately it would not exist if there wasn't demand for it.
Its a sign of the times. Of course people have always cheated. But at least in the past there some sort of shame associated with it. But now its on TV. Reason 1 million and 1 why I dont get attached.
nimchimpsky, I intentionally gave off the vibe that what I'm saying is monogamy is superior in and of itself, because it is. We just had a lengthy conversation as to why.
Unfortunately, the conversation is off-topic. I've said all I have to say on the subject. Last word's all yours.
