Default Would you forgive an affair?...............

Well, would you?

No, Mr SC hasn't had an affair and isn't planning to either (so he says ) and no, I haven't had an affair either. Just wondering like

When I say affair, I mean one night stand, short affair, long affair, two night stand, or whatever.

For me, it would depend on the circumstances.

...and what circumstances would you allow it?

Maybe...

However, with my previous partner I found that he had been spending hours a day looking at porn. For me, that was much harder to forgive. In fact I never did.

I would expect it. It's human nature.

they call him Mr Ro Ro Romantic ...

I think the further down the road of life you travel together, maybe the less likely you are to separate. You have so much more holding you together especially if you have children. I think that there are more things (family, house, dog, car, money!!) to be taken into account in that case than if you haven't been together too long.

So I suppose as SC says, depends on the circumstances. Really couldn't say until it happened to me (let's hope not)

[oops was that one of those posts people hate "sorry I can't help you, just wanted to say hi!with lots of smilies ")

cheers

Why? Was it just the length of time?

40% of blokes have looked/look at internet porn.


An affair is far far worse imo.

Dunno. I was devastated. I think it was because women in porn are just so perfect, whereas had he shagged the fat, grumpy old bird from the pub I wouldn't have felt so, well, inadequate...

I can't understand that, then again I'm only a thick bloke.


But yes the standard of the birds in online porn has improved greatly over the years, picture quality too.

Maybe it's different for men, although I do wonder how men would feel if they caught their wives ogling fit blokes online whilst, well, you know...
