    Single is way different than unhappily married

    My point was, if you're unhappy and looking for attention/conversation...one would think you'd subject yourself in a thread that has singles (if you're after a new catch), not subject yourself to a majority that is married and presumably happy, as this thread is intended for married chit-chatters which inadvertently implies happily married.

    i dont think singles can ever understand whats it like to be married...hence y sometime u yearn for some attention form another like married person who is in the same boat and will have a lot more in common...if that makes sense

    If I wasn't happily married I think I would start me own thread. Something called....hmm Cheaters wanted or really I am separated just haven't changed address yet. Yeah that's what I'd do. *hint hint*

    It has been my experience that "looking" is a very slippery slope. What does anyone else think? I believe no matter how good one's relationship is, the "grass-is-greener" fallacy can happen regardless especially on the internet.

    Depends on the "looking". I've been married for a long time now, but I'm always looking for people to goof off with online. I look for new friends in real life, but I'm not going to go behind my wife's back to get laid or start a relationship with someone else.

    I totally understand but have also seen cases where something begins innocently and gradually evolves to where one partner cannot compete with the online friend. I don't disagree with you, I just think looking can become more than it starts out to be.

    Easier to pick up unhappy people. :p

    So, you mean an unhappily married person on the hunt typically looks for another unhappily married individual?

    Single is way different than unhappily married

    My point was, if you're unhappy and looking for attention/conversation...one would think you'd subject yourself in a thread that has singles (if you're after a new catch), not subject yourself to a majority that is married and presumably happy, as this thread is intended for married chit-chatters which inadvertently implies happily married.

    i dont think singles can ever understand whats it like to be married...hence y sometime u yearn for some attention form another like married person who is in the same boat and will have a lot more in common...if that makes sense

    That makes sense and I understand communicating with people of similar interests/predicaments. As another mentioned, I do agree that it can become a slippery slope, if the person you share that predicament with is of the opposite sex (or the sex you're attracted/married to).

    I guess. Possibly. I mean, if you multiply two negative numbers, you get a positive, right? Basic math says that there's no way that scenario can go wrong. :D

    So, if I'm a married man and I'm chitting and chatting with a married woman, who is not my wife, it's only a matter of time before we're doing the horizontal mambo?

    I guess I view my marriage differently.
