Vesta you live in a very strange world. I think his point was "it takes two to tango". Granted, one can have an affair with someone of the same sex but the majority of people in this world are heterosexual. Thus, two people are involved in the deception, whether gay or straight.
Are you suggesting men have affairs with other men so they can discuss sports? Really? What would that be like? "Oh yeah! This Phillies won...let's suck each other off to celebrate!" What places would they go where they wouldn't take a woman? A gay bath house?
My husband didn't spend a lot of time in sports (or any other kind) of bar. As hard as he worked, had he wanted to go out with his buddies every week, I wouldn't have cared. But he didn't. He came home to be with his family. In my circle of friends that's what husbands do 99% of the time. Temptation and perversion has been around since the beginning of time (see Sodom and Gomorrah) so this kind of thing is nothing new. Honestly, if the world I found myself in was like yours, I'd find a better class of men.

Very true Cindie, I do live in a very strange and evolving world, I feel like Alice sometimes as nothing is the same as it seems, or was yesterday.
Mom and Dad married over 55 years to each other. Only ONE classmate had a step parent and no extended family's.
//////abortion was a horrible thing, 75% of the town folk went to church on weekends, we had school dances Friday nights, no booze or drugs, no fights.
No welfare for a long time, people fell on hard times the comunity helped them out.
Doctors made house calls until the mid 60's and let you pay when you could.
Kids got summer jobs at 14-15 and turned 75% of their wages over to the family to help out.
Strange new world, for us who mowed lawns and shoveled snow for our elderly neighbors without expecting to get but a hot or cold drink if lucky.
Somewhere between the 60's and today the Libs got a hold of people and from the new thinking began to make life miserable for people trying to parent their children.
All the EXPERTS in child development insisted it was mental child abuse to lay down rules for a child to follow. It was now expressing creativity for a 4 year old to mark up the walls in the house with their crayons. Children that swore and used bad language directed at their parents were only expressing their feelings.
When the kids got older and beat up Grandpa for not letting them drive his car, not the kids fault, they had a learning problem called anger management.
Kids were taught how to manipulate their family's by the schools, If family spanked them or took away favorite toys for a month, tell us. If Daddy smokes funny cigarettes, tell us.
Nothing wrong with taking a child to their parents church that will strip them bare naked and beat evil spirits out of them.
Nothing wrong for a school to strip search a child looking for drugs, like giving a girlfriend a Midol or Bufferin for cramps.
HOWEVER, if you are a 7 year old with Asama that needs an inhalator and a child with the same problem who forgot theirs at home has an attack, if they give theirs to them to keep them breathing-----O-Ho-----if on school bus or in school grounds----big discipline and exclusion from school for dispensing a drug.
TOPIC back to.
I watch and hide today this new strange world that began evolving when I was in mid twenty's when I was invited to join a Swingers club. This by a woman whose husband was a Captain in the Navy. Seems half the ward room was in on this hobby. Can't get much better class then Annapolis graduates married to woman they met at ivy league colleges.
Then the drugs, how often I would end up with 4 kids at their schools for an update on their work to smell pot in the teachers hair, or worse hit on by one of their male teachers.
Cindie Hon, I think you must be young and still have the illusion of youth that all is fine and dandy. You trust those that you have been programed to trust, have your best interests at heart, so you are told.
AOL says and rightly so, when a partner out of the blue decides to loose or gain weight, throws out all underware and buy new sexie stuff, takes up a hobby that does not include you, goes to visit relitives for a weekend, people they don't even like, gets lovie dovie more often, starts to bring you presents for no reason [ I call these guilt gifts ] then look out.
Now for the $65,000 dollar question, do I trust MY Hubby. YUP, but that is because I watch not him, but who he is around like a hawk----Woman friends that only come to visit when he is at home, Co-workers of his that may be having a conversation with him and I walk up, they walk away.
And the biggest tip off is when a man for little reason suddenly gets jealous of any man I talk to. This is a a tactic that men use and don't even realise it.
DUMMYS, not the men but the woman are thrown off when men do this. Woman believe that THEIR man is so in love with them they would never stray. Sad, when a acquantice or friend starts to tell me how jealous her man is , after seeing this happen over and over again, I have to bite my tongue and walk away knowing that something bad is going on.
Time tells Cindie, live a half century or longer and you will see it all.
