The sad reality..

Can't say I've know anyone like that. In all likelyness the relationships you speak of were already falling appart. They would have been looking for someone else ( internet or otherwise ) for comfort.

I haven't been in this kind of a situation and don't know anyone who is. But I personally feel that 2 people wouldn't get close and cross that line unless they were having problems in the relationship. If not online, they probably would have found someone else who they would rather spend their life with than their present partner. I'm not trying to say it's the right thing to do...but the question of trust would come in only if they continue to be in the same relationship and bond with someone else. If they leave one for the other, it means they have chosen what they wish and have told their partners about their choice. I don't see any point in tagging along is a relationship that isn't working and if you do meet someone who you think things might work out with, no harm in giving it a shot. But like you said,there's always a risk that it might happen again. But if the present partner is able to give her what the former one lacked, then I don't think she will be looking elsewhere for comfort, will she?

It did happen to me, it shattered my world. To find out someone i was committed to, in love with, could just go online and develop relationships that breaks my heart in so many ways. In my opinion it was worse knowing my ex, yeah thats right my ex I dont tolerate that garbage, was online developing serious relationship, sharing his feelings memories, thoughts, i would have handled it beter if was just out screwing someone, but no he was actually forming a bond with someone, freakin confiding on her. It is ridiculous. They met as well, and the thing is she was nothing like in her pictures and she was 7 years older then him and forgot tomention she had three kids, but by then he didnt really care cause he was so hooked on her. WHICH by the way alsted a whole maybe week before he was banging at my door begging for me back, devilsangel is right they always think the grass is greener, well it aint. It never is. So what do I think about peopole who do this, especially after being a victim of it myself? I think that anyone who would engage in this is absiolutly the lowest scum of all scums, actually to call them scum would be insulting scum.... Any woman by the way who would try to break up a home, you disgust me so bad its not even funny, it turns my stamache to think of what little self respect you must have to try to tear a home apart, and for what??? Honestly look at your situation long and freaking hard, if he is doing it to her, surely when he grows bored he will do it to you...hahaha Men are just pigs, i think ill stay single

One of the tragedies of my 5 year fight with my disabilities was that I created an online world for myself. You are right, it is a sad reality when this happens. It turned out that most of the faults I found with my wife were only true because we quit communicating with each other. My wife emersed herself in school and work while I spent as many as 12 hours a day online. I'm now recovering from it, and we are really working hard on making our marriage work. It will take a long time for us to work back the trust we had, and even longer for me to forgive myself for hurting her, and all the online friends I had made that I had to give up.

You are very much right in your observation. But I do not think all these are only happening online, but in real life also.I have seen this in case of my good friend. She met a guy at her workplace. they were good friend. The guy had a GF. they broke up and he proposed my friend. they ended up in love. But after some time the guy cheated on her. Now it is clear that he was taking advantage of the girl.

There is an important elemtn in every single relationship and this is called "Respect".When you lose respect for your partners, then, you lie and hide things and these behaviors destroy your marriage. We must always spend quality time,meet our partners emotional needs and we must always use radical honesty with our partners. As it turn out, care in marriage is doing what it takes to make each other happy and this include not doing anything behind our partners back. If you talk to your partners, use honesty and meet each other's emotional needs you have a long and lasting marriage. wwww.liquidagora.com/forums/index.php www.globrazil.com/forums/index.php

Ya know I have to admit that I really never could get the whole online dating, hooking up thing..I mean sure I have male friends online that I've flirted with and of course talked about deep issues in life etc but I could never ever see myself falling for a computer screen..It makes no sense to me...In the real world when a person leaves their spouse for someone else you DEFINATELY have that lack of trust thing whether its in the forefront or not...When a person leaves their partner for someone ONLINE how could that whole trust issue NOT be maginfied?! The whole thing really makes no sense to me at all...but like you I have to wonder how often this sort of thing really does go on...Especially when you have those online dating sites like Madison.com (I think thats the name of it) where they PROMOTE sneaking around in a very round about way...

yes, my son's girlfriend and he just broke up and i think it had alot to do with what they saw on facebook. i think kids and adults feel free to do stupid things and say stupid things on the computer without even realizing what they have created. I personally think if you have something to say to someone, don't say it on the computer. words can be translated into something totally different.

I heard of stories like that and you know, they never end well. I think people like this deserve all the bad things that are to follow such wrong doings. I personally have no contempt and no respect for people like this and think they should be ashamed of themselves. It seems as if they feel, that just because they not touching each other, it makes it ok. Cheating is cheating,regardless of how far away you are from each other.

Actually i did not stay in this situation.I know everyone don't like this situation.Its make very sad and fruss.I think before married must be honest with our partner because this situation can't occur.If he want do like this just remain him.Don't think about him just selfish.
