Question Affairs...who's got a bit on the side?

Having a chat over lunch and out of 5 blokes, 4 are getting their leg over away from home.
Is this just a freak occurrence or are extra-marital affairs commonplace?
Is this a reflection of society and the values we now attach to relationships?

Discuss....


T.G.

Be patient....the poll will appear shortly!!

Never

Although I could quite easily do it (was a bit of a a dog when I was single) I love my wife and kids and couldn't live with the guilt.

Wouldn't and couldn't - don't know how anyone can look there partner in the eye when having an affair. Why do it? If you want to $hag around then be single, if you want one man/woman then be in a relationship - simple eh....?

Matt (very very happy with current g/f )

Girlfriends may have overlapped in the past, but I have never cheated on someone when in a serious relationship - never will.

Have you seen the google ads????? How do you get a 110% guarantee??

My faith in human nature is being restored. Anybody up for a spot of blackmail?!!
We obviously employ people with the morals of alleycats.
As an aside, 1 of the blokes told me he has his wife's permission to do it as she's just not interested in the sexual side of things but they have a good life together, kids etc and didn't want to break it all up.

Never have and never intend to.
It's not that there isn't temptation, but there is far too much to lose.

I want to know where stand on this one, A girl I know is engaged but has feelings for me. I too share the same feelings. Would you say I was having an affair (although i'm single) if I were to take things further with her?

You'd be the "Other half" to her affair I guess. Whether you'd be having an affair or just rubbing another mans rubarb is just semantics.

Quite similar to a little incident I had late last year. Got quite friendly with a girl who was getting married and we actually kissed on her wedding day in front of my GF. Nothing else happened although the want was there, needless to say it wasn't the perfect situation and I haven't seen her for months.

Mind you neither has my girlfriend as it was her best mate - what a barsteward

Not cheated, doubt I would, or could (I'd feel way to guilty too). As Austin 'Danger' Powers says "It's not my bag baby!"

I've noticed affairs tend to be the same few people just doing the rounds.

Been here and recently. Your not the one having an affair, she is (IMHO). Believe me this route can lead to a lot of heartache for all parties. The lass in my case actually broke off the engaement. Yes I still have feelings for her even though she is back with they guy she was engaged to and vise versa.

Depends on what you think is more important, getting your leg over or friendship. Cos believe me, being friends after being lovers is a lot harder than being good friends and thinking rationally of who she would rather be with.

Just my 2p worth

Nope - never would. Too much too lose never mind the fact I care too much for my wife and she is too nice a person to hurt.

Even if I wanted to, I couldn't, because I'm the worlds worst liar. Even complete strangers can tell if I'm lying.

My 3 year affair ended approx a month ago....Wasnt happy with the G/F for ages, kid made me stay

Now single(hence end of 3 year affair)!

Currently 2 on the go, has been more, but got to much in the way of £ text messaging them all, sent some messages meant for others and got busted that way!

No regrets, done some unforgettable things in unforgettable places, memories will keep me going in my old age!

My old boss is still in having his affair, 11 years and counting.......Respec'

My viewpoint is that if you have to cheat, then there is something wrong with the relationship you are in, otherwise why would you be seeking your jollies elsewhere? even when I've gone through a rough patch with a partner I've never strayed. If something is not working then you need to at least talk about it and see if it can be fixed, if it can, and you want to fix it, then do so, if not, then time to say goodbye.
