I don't suspect any of my friends are wrapped up in it, but I'm old enough to realize nothing would surprise me anymore.

I never understood the dynamic of that business model: Hey! Wanna cheat on your partner? Best to get a third party involved, one with no emotional attachment whatsoever, and let them handle and hold all the incriminating info. What could possibly go wrong on the Internet?

Can you imagine signing up and using your credit card to cheat on your spouse? It's just screaming: BUST ME!!!

sometimes I think that these people really just want to get caught.

The latest ad campaign shows a woman logging onto that site while her husband - made-up as a zombie - sits snoozing on the couch next to her.

I think there's probably quite a few wives who've used the service, too.

I'm not a member and have never even been to the site, but why sign up under your own name? If you meet someone and all goes well, you can always say "My name isn't really Bill Jones, it's John Smith." If you are paying for a hotel room with a credit card, the truth might come out early, but...

I never see her much anymore.

I have needs that have gone unfulfilled for weeks to months at a time.

I jerk-off.

A lot.

Like a whole lot.

I have zero fears of this information going public. I have zero fears that my wife will have any fear as well. We just make it work.

Did I mention about the jerking off thing?

Cause I do that a lot.
