Is Chatting With A Member Of The Opposite Sex Cheating?

Awwwwwwwww. Well, all I can say is that she's the big loser because she blew her chance to be with a really great guy. I loved your video, Mark. It made me smile.

Yeah--and handsome too.

Quit it you two.

you three get a room!

Is Joe advertisin for some fresh meat?

Don't be jealous, Marc. He's just not into your mangina.

No, but you sure seem to be! That and prison sex seem to be high on your list these days.

I'm not interested in your prison-made mangina either.

Black holes maybe? http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=201722

You poor, depraved PB.

Gosh. I'm just not used to Marc being up and on so early in the day.

Chatting with friends who are fully aare of the relationship you are in is ok,

Chatting with friends of opposite sex should be harmless so long as they are friends and the time spent chatting is taking away from your current relationship.

Now say your SP start chatting with someone they previously had an intimate relationship with, that would be considered crossing the line.

It is all about being open, sensitive to your SO's needs and honest.

If you find yourself having more conversations with online friends than your spouse or So then that could be a sign that there are some intimacy issues or communication problems in your relationship.

an occasional post or e-mail should be ok.

I smell jealousy for another person's problem. Typical.

It is malodorous, 'tis true.

Well I have wondered this myself.

The question is, is it a mutual friend or your "own" friend.

My husband says, if you have me and I am all you need, why do you need another, for anything?

It just would never happen.

I had to cut ALL male contacts of any kind when I committed to my husband and when there was even a trace of contact between a dear "male" friend of mine or past/present co-worker, father of my children's friends, who I had known long before my hubby, you can believe me that contact caused me weeks of grief, unforgiveness and distrust.

Your husband is a control freak. Cut off all your old friends? Wow!

Does seem a bit overboard.

Each to their own, but my husband is not my one and all. Like most people, I have a complex social network. He might be a main constituent, but one and all? But, each to their own way.

Seriously #######

I feel there is a fine line between friendship and intimacy. My husband knows my male friends, he even met some of them when he was in India and I talk to all my friends regularly. My husband does have a few female friends with whom he play his WOW, he never met them but its cool with me.

Friendship has its own place in life, going by that kind of statement one shouldn't have any friends at all except their SO because after all who you are married to is your soulmate/bestfriend all the things in between.

Hmm...My wife would weigh my needs higher than her best friend. So, if her best friend "male" or "female" takes time away from our time. She would refuse to commit her time with them and focus on me.

And, she tells her friends that her "life has change because of marriage and you guys need to keep your distance."

Her friends knows not to interfere with our relationship because like all relationship, there's commitment involved. The only time if they would need to step in is if it requires life or death. LOL. But, common sense plays a big role.

That's a whole different subject from having friends at all. Priorities do change, you can't be sitting in the bar the whole weekend when you got family waiting for you but that doesn't mean you can't meet up with your old friends once in a while.

I have male friends and chat with them. I guess Bren should slap me around, tie me to a post in the middle of the woods and leave me there to die.
