I found this article interesting and thought I would share it here.

We are hard-wired to love pussy. Get over it!

I don't want to get divorced but I don't pretend that I should be faithful either.  I just don't discuss it with my wife.

I've accepted it as part of my life.  I'm a man, I care for my family.   I provide everything they need and don't embarrass them with my extra-marital activities.

I am comfortable that it is a part of my life and I'm happy that I can have it and also have my family.  No one gets hurt and I satisfy my needs discreetly.

"A long and supportive marriage may be more valuable than a sexually faithful one, Squire says. “Why does society consider it more moral for you to break up a marriage, go through a divorce, disrupt your children’s lives maybe forever, just to be able to fuck someone with whom the fucking is going to get just as boring as it was with the first person before long?”

Personally my SO is significantly older than I am, she has lost her desire for sex, but isn't the type to accept an open marriage.  I have two choices, (1) divorce her despite the great companionship, friendship, and relationship we have or (2) satisfy my carnal needs elsewhere.

I chose the latter but that is why I am here...I had one "non-sex" date with a civie recently and it felt much more sorted than meeting with an escort.  Something about sharing real intimate feelings with someone as opposed to just having fun sex felt MUCH more like cheating.

“A relationship is a myth you create with each other. It isn’t necessarily true, but it’s meaningful. The key to that myth is that the other person is enough for you. You know in your head that another person isn’t enough for you. But if you don’t honor the myth, then it crumbles.”

They crumble into bits when you try to dissect them.

These are the facts:

People like to screw.

People will screw with whomever they want.

People have been doing this since time immemorial.

People will continue to do so into time immemorial.

Everything else said about it is just so much chin music.

Sometimes that's just what the Dr. ordered!
