MARRIAGE is the death of hope," Woody Allen once said. But not for everyone. In New York, where eligible men are few and far between, single women who endure long stretches of unwilled celibacy may resort to cheating with someone else's husband because it seems like the only hope - consequences be damned.
In December, I slept with a married man - late 50s, attractive, smart and successful. He's been with his wife forever, a lifestyle to which he is completely wedded, one that I had no intention of jeopardizing. Any guilt I might have felt was further assuaged by the fact that the man already had a roguish reputation. Since it had been two months that I'd gone without any skin-to-skin contact and I was too impatient to go through another round of dating rigmarole - the dinners, the chitchat, the sizing each other up - I reached out to him.
It was mid-afternoon when we met for a late lunch at a forgettable sushi place near 42nd Street. Since we weren't on a traditional "date," there was no need to conceal our vulnerabilities in order to make a good first impression. I was relaxed, and enjoyed being open with and appreciated by a man without even having to try.
Afterward, he put his arm around me and steered me to West 45th Street to Hotel QT, a sense of furtiveness lending a sexy dangerousness to our imminent entwinement. Entering the room, we anxiously pulled off our clothes, tearing back the bedcovers.
Last spring, a Time-CNN poll determined that while 90 percent of Americans say adultery is wrong, some type of infidelity occurs within half of all marriages. The reasons why seem obvious enough: boredom, loneliness, anger and, in cases when bedroom activities have simply died out,

There was some articles I think out of Baltimore (I could be confusing some of the details but I think I have the main idea) about the life of a 12 year old heroin addict - or some crap like that. It gave all of these details blah blah blah - until it came out it was all made up. This artcle could be *real* but just because it's on the internet doesn't make it so LOL.

Disgusting. This poor woman is very confused.
An unflattering photo.
I'd still hit it, though.
The thing is that the decision to cheat on a spouse is a lot more complex than people like to think it is. While some folks have personalities that are more likely to cheat, they are in the minority.
The decision to cheat has much less to do with things like morals and mostly to do with opportunity. That is, anybody can find themselves in a situation where they might cheat provided the opportunity presents itself.
The single biggest factor in someone cheating on a spouse or not is opportunity. If the dynamics are right, it's not that difficult to (temporarily) forget that they have a husband or wife, and a home life they would normally not disrupt.
Oh, well, then it's OK.
ROTFLMAO!!!
