Author dale_gribble Posted June 19, 2011 Author Posted June 19, 2011 nyrias- I think you tend to "overanalyze" things-"Now we are getting totally illogical"- I'm trying to find some answers regarding thier mindset, when trying to minimize AP's appeal- not thier intelligence, or lack there of. I would rather not hear anything at all, than have them(WS) talking **** about OM/OW for my benefit. But when they do open up this can of worms- Do they really feel this way, or are they just playing the part for a smotther R?
OldOnTheInside Posted June 19, 2011 Posted June 19, 2011 Many cheaters are very intelligent. They have no scruples but they do have brains. You don't need to have morals to be smart. They are just simply out for themselves and don't care if they hurt another person or not. I like this. Although the word "cheaters" could just be replaced with people in general. However, I do believe that intelligence and willingness to take risks are intricately connected in many ways. Intelligence (the word is a very loose umbrella term unfortunately) is a factor in how a WS/AP will deal with the risks involved in an affair. Likewise, the intelligence of the BS will influence their overall reaction to the situation that they have inadvertantly found themselves in, and how they intend to proceed. But to stay on topic, it is quite natural for illogical actions to occur during an affair. Many affairs are, essentially, irrational choices, and as such, won't make much sense to an outside observer. Emotions come into play here, from all parties involved. Even those that claim clarity of mind can turn into complete jack*sses when pushed.
