Talk About Marriage - View Single Post - Is This Cheating or have relationship thresholds evolved?

My partner and I met through a dating website back in 2003. Since then we have moved in together, have had one child, and lead somewhat normal and product lives.

Like everyone we have our vices. He likes to chat and exchange pictures on the internet and I like to have random conversations on chatlines. It wasn't a problem until he found out that I was still doing it and he feels that it is wrong for us to be leading "double-lives" but at the same time can not promise that he will stop.

I do not see the harm in it as long as we are both aware of whats going on and as long as we do not cross the line between reality and fantasy. I think its a modern version of a playboy subscription.

Any thoughts on this topic?
