eeyore1981 Posted July 6, 2012 Posted July 6, 2012 I'm saying a lie you told 20 years ago is dead, gone and over with. The reality you've had every day since then is not a lie. But an affair is not a lie, it's an affair.

This is no different than saying a person in a monogamous relationship can cheat as much as they want, as long as they don't get caught. It's not the 'getting caught' that is the bad thing, it's the actual affair. 1

It's not the 'getting caught' that is the bad thing, it's the actual affair. I completely agree. I think that seems to be what is being implied. If no one finds out about what you did, it is just like you never did it. So do what you can get away with, as the only bad part is being caught, but if not caught, no harm, no foul. Some people do live by these rules. I know of such people....I don't associate with them though, as that kind of thinking and orientation makes me very uneasy and doesn't foster my trust in them as people. 3
