Is it crazy to think couples in this day and age won't cheat on each other?

@Gypsy11 that's a good point. Social media is a common curse on is all. We are all desperately trying to outdo each other. Look at everyone's profile, they all have amazing lives, no sad days or an ordinary life. It's the desire to stand out and be the centre of attention that is our downfall.

@Gypsy11 That is true, too many people give up too easily (they are getting lazy when it comes to relationships). On the other side of it there are many people who hold on too long when it's obviously not good or working. It is never totally perfect or easy because nothing in life ever is (and people aren't either), but it doesn't have to be a lot of hard work and a struggle all the time. My wife and I have had tough times and rough spots that we have had to overcome and see through together...but none of it had anything to do with our relationship itself. Our relationship has always just come naturally, and keeping it honest and sacred to just us is not hard to do. PEOPLE complicate situations and create problems often more than what is really there.

I disagree because a lack of effort can also attributed to a lack of interest and respect. @Laughman

@Spoiledbrat yes, I think we agree on the desire for instant gratification.. it's the way people are moving.. it's sad..

And yes, I know you believe that swinging means there isn't that meaning within one's relationship.. all I can say is that's not the experience of many of those who have that aspect in their life and many who want it in their life.. I would be the first to say it doesn't work for everyone.

@Adaydreambeliever yes for some that is their interest and some it never would be an interest. Hopefully the ones who would never consider it an option will not end up with someone who would.

No one is doing that. @curiosi

@Spoiledbrat You poor naive child🤣😂

No. I just think there is more to consider. @SW-User

@indyjoe unfortunately our outlook on marriage is not the popular.

@indyjoe @indyjoe best answer. This is the way or no way.

Exactly and many people become stuck together without many resources hence options. @Alice60

@Gypsy11 I agree with what you're saying. Do I like what you're saying? No I don't, but you're right. It's about instant gratification. When there's work or boredom, it's onto something different and new.

Sometimes people have to figure it out for themselves. @1234567890a

@nedkelly Exactly. This is complete BS.

Says people who can’t get a date. @nedkelly

@SW-User It's attitudes like yours that are a big part of the problem...it's like a cancer and it is permeating our society at alarming rates. Relationships and marriage are losing priority, they are rapidly becoming trivial and disposable.

@SW-User That is absolutely not true of me or my wife, nor is it true of a lot of other people we know (and we have known some cheaters).

@indyjoe Oh well I'm happy for you mate

@Gypsy11 You’ll be fine, people really haven’t changed at all.

@1234567890a 🙄

@1234567890a No Monogamy was something the church invented (I believe)
we are automatically attracted to others who are attractive, Strong, protective, Good Providers, as most of the Animal kingdom is

@Alice60 yes i do believe the bible is truth. Adam and Eve would be the example.

@QuixoticSoul Many people still do not and have never found being monogamous difficult.

@indyjoe I have yet to meet any. The phrase “seven year itch” is a cliche for a reason.
