I would describe it almost as a strength- one that I don't have within myself. My reactions are always immediate. Even if I had walked in and found someone had been cheating on me, despite the fact that I had been cheating as well, I would still feel the burning desire to lay blame, draw guilt and would keep my own actions secret. Why? I couldn't say. Maybe I have too much pride, but not enough honour. Or maybe I am just a massive hypocrite.<BR/><BR/>But the way you wrote this was stunning. It says what it needs to say without being over stated and dressed up. I like that.

I think betrayal is described here, and I don't understand why people stay together with betrayal. That is the icky concept. Swingers stay together because; well short of much insight they have more of a life void of this "icky concept". I did have to bring that up because, well, c'mon, it seems as though most couples have their little lies.<BR/><BR/>Peace and FreedomAmerican Hill BIllyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07842656745200543229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3814167885275431107.post-12100471417619725022008-08-04T00:45:00.000-02:302008-08-04T00:45:00.000-02:30It's always hard to share.It's always hard to share.Debra Kayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13455047894767524091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3814167885275431107.post-36691315592825640392008-08-04T00:21:00.000-02:302008-08-04T00:21:00.000-02:30hmmm...no judgement... even when we are betrayed.....hmmm...<BR/>no judgement... even when we are betrayed... ooops... even you don't call it betrayal...<BR/>thought-provoking...<BR/><BR/>something seems missing here...<BR/>i'll be back...<BR/>-------------------------<BR/><BR/>Jon... so happy you wrote... i really missed your words... always <BR/>strong... always impressive... and always human...<BR/>this one too touched... you shed light on the subject from a new perspective and... you did it so beautifully....<BR/><BR/>a bientot, mon ami...human beinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09232419187783429903noreply@blogger.com
