And guaranteed not get caught.. would you?
If it were possible that you could cheat on your mate, or significant other, and not get caught, would you do it? I've often asked myself that, and asked my husband, too. He always asks me if it's a trick question. I am not sure what he means by that, but I think he means if he answers a certain way, that he'll get in trouble. Hehehhe. No, it's not like that.
I asked him that yesterday, and after him giving me a bit of sarcasm, he answered in a way that I thought was very thought provoking. He said "If I cheat on you, I cheat myself." I asked what he meant by that. He said that he has set a personal standard of integrity for himself, and that if he violated that he would let me down, as well has God and himself. I thought that was a pretty good answer, so I just let it go. I have a pretty good man and consider myself lucky.
But, really, we all know how that goes. When marriages get bad, people are inclined to feel isolated, lonely, etc. and in need of physical human contact. I've often thought that personal integrity would be thrown out the window in face of those types of situations, but I don't know. What do you think?
For me: I just am not sure. I know I wouldn't sleep with someone else while still married, but I might be tempted to get emotionally involved with someone else while separated or something along those lines. What about you?
