Fair enough. I'll buy that. So, when I go to the hardware store, my INTENT is to buy a tool or some other item I need for work. IF ANYTHING ELSE should happen, it is considered a BONUS, and not part of the original INTENT.

The same applies here. People come here to talk and socialize, and if something happens between two people, it's a BONUS.

Everything ok Angel?

... But dirty dishes don't have that problem.

I think it all depends on who you are flirting with and why. If you are flirting on the forums in public for fun with friends as a game, but you are emailing in private acknowledging that it is just a game and sharing the real world as friends, it is no different than going to a party and flirting with old friends (my friends love to flirt and have for many years).

Flirting with the intention of cheating is a whole different ballgame. To pretend there is a chance of something "happening" when there is none, or to make someone think a relationship is developing when you are in another relationship is just wrong. From what I have experienced, flirting in the forums is more of a way to create public jokes and have fun. The real flirting goes on behind closed e-mail doors.

People do not go to the hardware store to look for the most compatible person for them and take them home with them in the real world,.... If that were the case, we all would've gone home by now. We are all here simply to be social, and if a connection happens to spark between two people, and they make the decision to pursue it further, it's a bonus for them....but it should NOT be the sole reason for a site such as this, or any other like it. It's all in the mindset you have for this site when you join it....will you be swayed by the hype by thinking it's simply a "dating site", or will you look at the whole picture and intelligently realize that there can BE no "dates" without first socializing and making friendships? See, therein lies the difference, and too many people join a site like this with the wrong mindset.

If she does not find out it is not cheating.

.... and I don't believe once someone has cheated they will always cheat.

I once was in a cigar shop with a bunch of mobsters and they got mad at me because I would not cheat on my ex. Their reasoning was it made you more attentive to your wife, because you did not want to get caught or not forgiven.

[Some people mutually cheat on each other......but stay together....

I'm seeing a lot of never & nos'. I've also have seen a number of profiles that say separated. Does that make it technically cheating if not divorced?????

Would YOU..... Cheat in a Relationship?

For the most part...yes

Yep..watercolour, stippled inks, clear coating with ink diffusion and metal flakes...(my family has a paint and body shop so I got lots of crap to experiment with)

The thing is...when the white dots disappear...the painting turns silver and the surf comes off the canvas like a rainbow.

maybe this pic will show better detail...
