    As an aside, not all partners who wander are alone - my exH was a lying cheating SOB ... I put out, cooked, cleaned, the works.. he was just too insecure to have his *kitten* together in a relationship.
  • My view on this is that if you don't trust each other to have other friends and to build relationships with other people online, then you really aren't looking out for their best interests and your relationship is not going to work out anyway. If someone is going to cheat online, they are likely going to do it IRL so its a matter of time really.

    I just don't get people that don't respect someone's relationship or their own. I personally don't think that people in relationships should have any kind of friendship or relationship with any one else of the opposite sex on a one on one basis. It is a dangerous spot to be in cause it open possibilities.

    So the fact that I'm bisexual means I shouldn't have any friends that I hang out with alone because its possible that I might cheat? I would dump anyone so quick that didn't trust me enough to be alone with a member of the opposite sex.

    True dat. People don't cheat because they're alone with someone they're attracted to, they cheat because they have insecurities, relationship problems they're too chicken to resolve, and lack of respect for themselves or their partner. Not because they're incapable of being alone with someone of the opposite sex (or same, for those of us in that boat.)

    People will always find a way to cheat. MFP or facebook is not the reason people cheat; it's the venue.
