Nowadays it does not surprise me in the least. People want all the pleasure they can get without any consequenses.

Bill "That depends on what the meaning of is, is" Clinton could of been able too use that site.
BTW-
Yahoo! Personals gives you the option to describe yourself as married and looking.
That's why I use ConservativeMatch.com instead.
It's a great place to meet conservatives, not necesarily for dating purposes.
I met a beautiful woman in Kenya and have been e-mail pals with her for a while now.
She lives North of Mombasa.

The Bible says that in the last days people will parade their sin for all too see and be proud of it. Just a sign of the times I suppose.

Anybody know a good hacker to turn that website into the electronic equivalent of oatmeal? Oh wait, that might not be a good idea owing to the interconnectedness of the internet and the law of unintended consequences.

As someone who had his marriage end because of this (her not me), I'd like to say:
This is the primary reason I quit dating a LONG time ago. No one's faithful anymore. It's all a free-for-all.
How the hell do you find someone when half the people think you're only after a fling and the other half ARE only after a fling.
I give up. What the hell am I saying, I gave up over five years ago. Well, I continue giving up.

Oh, and James P:
Not yet! I'm not ready yet! I haven't yet accepted Jesus as my savior. I've been trying, but the world can't end yet. I'm not ready.

I don't see what the big deal is. When I want to cheat Mrs. Exile, all I have to do is point and say "Look! A communist!" When she turns to look, I just help myself to the some hotels and St. James Place. (Heh, heh. I'm a scamp).
Posted by: Exile | Wednesday, August 04, 2004 at 06:29 AM
lol Exile! Pretty smooth since who would want St. James Place?

ArmedGeek and y'all, this is a great article. Check it out.
Posted by: Joshua | Wednesday, August 04, 2004 at 11:38 AM
ArmedGeek, I'm sorry you had a bad (excruciating) experience. There are plenty of people out there working very hard to preserve the integrity of their marriages though. But it does take work in a world where we are bombarded with this garbage, and fornication is celebrated while monogamy is considered boring and passe'.
Andy, Go to it!! I was thinking the same thing. These sites should be struck by lightening before long!

ArmedGeek -
Your former wife's infidelity stinks. I think everyone agrees you were treated badly.
No offense, but your other statements are silly. You are not silly; the statements are.
In referring to "No one", "someone", and "people", you of course mean female "No ones", "someones", and "people".
Well, the vast majority of women are faithful. Almost every woman wants monogamy, and she wants marriage. Women are hardwired this way.
If half the women you approach think you're after a fling, you can easily convince them otherwise. Notwithstanding the bachelor's fantasy, the other half are not after a fling; see above re "monogamy" and "marriage".
If you're really Armed, don't shoot them. If you're really a Geek, that will work to your advantage, because that means you're smart and have lucrative skills; woman like those qualities, because you can support them and the kids better.
Once again, hardwiring.
Your problem will be that most available women won't want you. This is a deficiency you share with all guys who are not royalty, or succesful professional athletes or entertainers.
But some will. The law of averages is working for you, and anyway, you only need one.
Now get back in there and fight! We need marriages, permanent marriages, and we need babies, and we need them now!

Right on, Roger!

armed geek, been there, the psycho X was a cheater for 5.5 years of our 7 year marriage, i just never knew for sure until the ONE NIGHT i hired a PI. infidelity sucks.
Posted by: sarahk | Wednesday, August 04, 2004 at 07:22 PM
You hired a PI? Was it worth it? The price for his fee I mean? I guess it was since you found out.
What a scum-bag. At least my ex had the temerity (am I using that word correctly?) to tell me she was scr...messing around.
I just looked it up, I guess it works. She was kinda crazy-stupid for telling me.
Thank God I am a Christian, I would have done all kinds of nasty things to get back....mwah hahahaha..........

Joshua -
Thank you, thank you. I like my prose to entertain, but usually it doesn't seem to.
Vey gevalt!! Poor you and poor GunNerd. You guys' experiences sure do seem to knoock my self asured bloviations about the moral superiority of women into a cocked hat. Of course I'm equally sorry for SarahK, but her misfortune has that dog bites man quality - i.e., a guy was a jerk, how shocking.
Posted by: Roger Glass | Wednesday, August 04, 2004 at 11:07 PM
As really dispicable as a site that gives tips and tricks for cheating on your spouse is, it's still not quite as bad as the NAMBLA-related sites that give tips and tricks for kidnapping and subsequently murdering small children, and disposing of the bodies. The thought of that kind of crap makes me quiver with rage. >:o(
Posted by: AWG | Wednesday, August 04, 2004 at 11:11 PM
What AWG?
That is INSANE!!
Somebody needs to shut em down.
Call out the IMAO and send in the troops.

What is all this Christian, conservative, [stuff] all of you go on about. Being secular did not make me want to do evil things to the woman who cheated on me, not even one thought of evil ever crossed my mind. I cried, I got over it. I found another relationship, far more satisfying. Marriage nor Christianity nor being Conservative does not determine fidelity, it's what's inside you, what you have to offer the other person, what that person has to offer you.

you may feel free to comment on my blog any time. however, i ask that
in MY forum, you respect that i am a Christian and calling
Christianity creepy is not acceptable at MY place. you may say it
anywhere else that it's allowed, but this is like walking into my
house, seeing a cross on my wall (actually, i don't have any) and
saying "Christianity is creepy". what kind of guest in my home would
you be? i respect your right to be secular, i respect your right to
say it. but please do not be rude to me and my Christian readers. i'm
sorry that i didn't make that clear in my note to trolls and cussers.
i would appreciate if you would keep your adjectives about
Christianity out of my blog. other than that (and no cussin' or
trollin'), i welcome and thank you for your comments.
and yes, i'll be deleting your adjective.
thanks for respecting my wishes.
sarahk
p.s. if you would have left a real email address, i would have addressed this issue in private.

Eric -
You leprous [poopy head].
At first I thought you were being a disingenuous troll. Then, I was willing to give you the benefit of the doubt, and respond as if you had misinterpreted Joshua's comment in good faith. Then I remembered that you had called Christianity "creepy", and realized that my first impression was correct.
You obviously don't know creepy. Look in a mirror. Now that's creepy.
By the way, I'm a Jew. No doubt others here are also. If Maggie Katzen isn't then with a last name like that she should be. (Maggie, lass, d'ye na' see now that Ah stand fer guid, and na' evil? Are ye na' now ashamed fer harshin' me?)
Back to you, Eric.
In stating that his Christianity prevented him from exacting revenge, Joshua was only speaking of his own perceived faults. He didn't say that everyone needs to be a Christian to eschew retaliation. But you knew that, Eric. You just wanted to yank the believers' chains.
Of course he didn't give you a real address, SarahK. Don't you have flashers in Amarillo? Do they usually leave identification?
And did you have to show him such courtesy? Do you apologize before you flush?
Eric, a fault that the Christians really do have is that they believe everyone - even you - is capable of redemption. They'll accept any sentient lifeform. I think they need some standards.
And SarahK's papa is ready to kill us nice boys just for saying Sizzle looks good (and so would SarahK, if not for those enormous, hanging triceps; like staysails drooping in a calm, they are*). Why don't you look him up and say hello? Don't worry, everybody in Texas is a sissy, especially in those parts.
So Eric, go back to your nest, and hope that the guy with the spray can doesn't come in and turn on the lights when you're out looking for food. Or a date.
*I couldn't resist, SarahK, since you're always talking about them. I teased my late, beloved mother in just the same way. Since the fellows are forever singing odes to your pulchritude, I figured a liitle jolt might do you good. Please don't have me killed.

Roger, I don't remember being harsh, showing my biting wit perhaps. ;D I think your hilarious. Would that my brain worked so well.

My Dear Miss K.
You hired a PI to catch your cheater? BTW what was that husband of yours drinking? You're a total babe. I'd make a comment about looking a gift horse in the mouth, but that's not appropriate when speaking of a babe.
If you ever need another PI, I have seen every episode of "The Prisoner" and a few episodes of "Columbo." I'd love to get into that racket. I can see it now...Fedora perched on my dashing head at a rakish angle...Trenchcoat concealing my arsenal...Gorgeous women trying to distract me from my mission...Where was I? Anyhoo, not important I guess.
Posted by: Exile | Friday, August 06, 2004 at 08:07 AM
Exile, I just gotta ask. Having seen the Prisoner do you find yourself giggling everytime they announce an "orange alert" cause I do.
Posted by: maggie katzen | Friday, August 06, 2004 at 03:05 PM
Maggie, may I call you Maggie? Thanks. You can call me Exile.
Actually, I've never thought about the Prisoner when they announce orange alerts. However, Mrs. Exile and I saw "The Village" last week and I kept wanting to scream out "I am not a number, I am a free man." And of course I hide whenever I see a weather balloon.
