[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Married over 20 years. I've never cheated on DW and don't plan to. I've had chances, had temptations. Have I thought about it? Yes, in some realm of fantasy. My conscience would give me away if I carried it out. I'd be a nervous wreck, knowing I'd done something that serious to her.

Would it be possible for a woman to lure me or entrap me at a weak moment? Anything is possible but still not likely. I don't play near the edge. I don't hang out at bars or other meeting places. I have female friends but we do not hang out together. In fact, most of them are DW's friends too. Not being in close private quarters with other women limits my exposure and my risk of falling.

I think this is a great point. There are ways to affair-proof your marriage. They are not 100% but they definitely can decrease the likelihood. I make decisions all the time "not go there." My husband had an emotional affair and I didn't want to be the woman with low self worth who did the revenge affair, emotional or physical. In my weaker moments I thought of it but realized it would just be me meeting him at the lowest rung, and didn't see our marriage recovering from that.

We recovered by the way. There are worst things than infidelity (though there were moments where it felt like there wasn't) and they can be a great wake up call for both people.[/quote]
