bentnotbroken Posted November 16, 2011 Posted November 16, 2011 My perspective when it comes down to honesty is quite simple: Do you want your spouse to know the real you? Or do you want your spouse to believe in the illusion of you that they have created in their head? Because if cheating is a deal breaker to your spouse and you decide not to tell them about it, than all they have is the illusion of your fidelity. We seem to live in a world that encourages these types of illusions, don't we? And yes. It does seem that the world is more into the illusion of life. Makes me sick to my stomach some days.

Most here are recommending to jenny that she be honest with her H so, if her M survives, it can be real rather than an illusion. Seriouslyu made a good point about that. Do you disagree? Personally, I think Owl and seriouslyu gave great advice.
Severely Unamused Posted November 17, 2011 Posted November 17, 2011 This being directed at AP's, well, AP's don't have the market cornered on illusions of all sorts. Can you explain what you mean? I feel like I'm missing out on something here.
