[quote=Anonymous]My spouse and I have both experienced this. I have become much more socially isolated because of it. I have no idea how my spouse is coping. They say that they just respond politely to DMs and keep it light and online. I have no concrete reason to doubt what they say. It happens face-to-face at events, over DM, and even indirect DM. Old friends wanting to start affairs. Some married, some not married. We both say that we block people after they make a direct offer, and I believe that we both do. I do not check my spouse's devices. That is too invasive and possessive. I am sick of the asks. It is so disrespectful of normal boundaries. I like my privacy and my space. I don't want to be standoffish, but I don't want to be propositioned, either. It is awkward. Why do people do this so often in middle age? Does this eventually die down if both partners say no or is this just how midlife and late-in-life is? Neither of us is particularly famous, rich, or hot.[/quote]
