I don't agree with it, but I guess there are certain very trapped and lonely people out there too.

[@Rosey i think they need to move on if they are lonely

@LindaM a family friend had a wife who developed MS. She deteriorated rapidly, yet lived a long time and could only communicate through blinking for the last two years of her sad life. He did escape for a few hours every couple of days with a kind lady and I'd never criticize him for it. Sometimes a few people give so much and do need a bit of love or attention back.

@Rhonda I have a friend who is married and in a monogamous relationship with someone other than her husband. If she leaves her husband most likely he will end up in a nursing home as he isn't able to care for himself. There are people out there in all sorts of unusual situations. Some don't want to leave, some just can't.

@Rhonda you are probably right but from my experience and when i was on a date site...mostly married men contacted me and i know all they wanted from me was sex and because i am single and wanting a relationship that was very upsetting to me...that is not why i was on a dating site...i believe those people whose intentions are strictly for sex need to get lost...

@LindaM I'm sad that you think that Linda. That lets men off the hook. Plenty of men...married, committed men have evolved far enough to RESIST the urge to wander. They respect themselves and the women they are with. The kind of males, not men, I am talking about will use that same defense when caught cheating...."hey, I'm a guy...can't help it" or the classic "boys will be boys" Nope....they just feel entitled as males. They need to evolve

@Fernie i know but its different now, they dont care so they do it and hurt a whole lot of people...back years ago there were not cell phones or internet and people might have been sneaking about but not like today...today its pathetic and for single people like me who are wanting a relationship, we have to deal with that bs

@LindaM Much is different now..you are right about that but, men have always been this way BY CHOICE. Yeah, it really suks for sane single people just wanting a nice relationship with a nice person but being met with creeps and liars. Again, where did we go to find people before the internet?
