The Right Thing

March 26 2012

I recently met a girl here on RHP, we chatted for a bit then met at a pub for a few drinks. It all went well so we decided to go back to her place for some fun. When we arrived at her place she then sprung it onto me that she was married, she did not tell me about this before. I then asked her if her husband knew what she was doing and if he would be ok with it, she said "no he doesn't know and would not be happy with it". So I then said to her "sorry but if i was to help you cheat I would only be lowering myself down to your low standards", then i just got up and left.To me there is no excuse for cheating, I don't care if you have been cheated on or not getting enough sex or whatever the reason is, its just wrong to do.So my question is does anyone else feel the same way about cheating as I do and did i do the right thing.

    Good on ya, and I hope you apply that sense of right and wrong through all aspects of your life. I think, that in reality there are many shades of grey, and personally I wouldn't be prepared to judge anybody.I may well have done the same as you.....who knows, never been there as far as i know!Cheers Felonius

    This is exactly why I highly recommend getting the sex out of the way long before the polite conversations and how do you do's. Hugs Stalky

    At least you could have rung a friend for her.   Life is complicated, and everyone has their reasons, this has been in a ton of treads That you left is good, as you stood up for your principals   Just do not beat others over the head with them.   Your life, your choices your history all add up to who you are and your moral compass hers is different.   Apart from that I think any guy that bonks a married women in her home, is a person that wants a bum full of buckshot.   I would leave as did you. Not because she is married but because she never told you up front,

    Good for you !!! I would have left too. My own personal experience is that if they lie about their status they will lie about anything !!! There is no line for them ... Cheating and lying go hand in hand Yes people cheat and yes people do have reasons for doing so however until u r cheated on by the person u love more than anything in the world, well u have no idea how gut wrenching it is to the person who loves and believes in u. And I'm bloody tired of the excuses.... Not enough sex at home, my partner doesn't understand me bla bla bla.. Some people cheat just because they can, to have their ego stroked, because it's a thrill, because they r addicted. Some people just cannot simply say No because they care more about their needs than the people who love them needs. If u feel the need to cheat grow up grow some balls and end it. Do u really think u r gonna get away with it with no consequences ...???? that is so naive Well done OP Slk will now get off soap box and slink off to sidelines .... Sorry for ranting but had a particularly bad day with the cheating ex...,,. Gggrrrr .... Do these people ever "get theirs " ?

    Quoting 'kinkisthenewpink' Right or wrong is up to the individual. I was in a similar situation myself recently and made the same choice. He was a lovely guy, everything I would normally look for and making me an amazing offer of all kinds of perks and spoiling as his mistress, I needed to look myself in the mirror every morning and see someone I like. Good for you xxand another! omg....i'm dizzy lol...well said..

    Friends.. I could tell some stories.. from people I have met on here.. and from the outside world.. I have worked in the mining and construction industry since 1980, and lived in camps most of that time.. Man-o-man.. have I seen some people come unstuck and unhinged in HUGE ways.. Sometimes as an observer, sometimes as the perpertrator or participant.... and.. there are none of the stories I have to tell that are anything except UGLY.. I reckon you did the right thing Holden... BUT.. that doesn't mean I would have had the same strength... MAYBE I would have.. but I cannot state so--- categorically... It is also good to see you fellas backing him.. AND I do hope you have the fortitude to stand up for your beliefs when you are faced with the prospect of a damned fine looking hottie offering her sex.. IT AINT easy.. :)   caveman..

    You absolutely did the right thing holdenf,that was a mean trick she played and in that situation I would hope most people would do the same. as you, However there are many reasons why people choose to have sex outside of marriage,sometimes its not even just about sex its about a lack of intimacy or closeness and sometimes marriages survive because one person seeks to have some of their needs met elsewhere ,it is not always black and white,.and yes there are often consequences ,and unfotunately its not just one or two people who suffer, when there are children involved they often suffer too. There is an excellent book< mentioned recently in another post,>called 'Sex at Dawn' by Ryan et al.,subtitled the origins of modern sexuality for anyone who is interested in a possible explanation as to why monogamy just doesnt work for most of us.

    Here we go again.   Felonius your friends tragedy is common place Some people just live in black and white and expect us all to wear the same clothes. The sad but truth of it is that people make mistakes or they have their own reasons for doing what they do, but others are all to ready to put them in a box then set that box on fire.   The post is about the guy and his choice The other post is like a broken record I suggest the zealots keep adding to that one, and enjoy their regurgitated sermons re the liars post.   And for the record, I am a liar , a cheat, a harlot , a sinner , so please hand me my patch so I can sew it on my sleeve. Ohh wait, I am human , fancy that. I make mistakes and bad choices. You did as I said, what was best for you. Cave man said its not always that easy, like the song goes Loneness is a good aphrodisiac. Like a few of my friends, women lonely unable to leave, and yep all you guys with houses and money can say as you please. Try being illiterate, with kids,never had a job, and a hubby who thinks your name is door mat. To the pious, how much is sole parent benefit? Or the Dole. Life is not a cup cake of simplicity.

    You did the right thing for you and your beliefs...   Maybe she did the wrong thing by not telling you she was married when you first starting chatting...did you ask her?   You may not respect her for wanting to cheat on her hubby, but at the very least she did tell you of her marital status before you slept together, giving you the choice to make an informed decision...

Too many deranged spouse stories in the news for me to be anywhere near that one.I know nothing of her situation however, and who am I to judge anyway. A more religious man would say let thou without sin cast the first stone. While I've never been a cheater I'm certainly not without sin!Mr Chick(of course the more religious man would then proceed to cast judgement on all around him, maybe thou without hypocrisy should cast the first stone?)

    I was recently involved wit a woman who had seperated and said both had "moved on"Until finding out that the real seperation was only a month before, not the year before.After a week of seeing this woman, the ex was driving past my place and making random visits to hers to confront me.It's not so much about being married, or seperated. It's more about disclosing anything that may be a threat to your own personal safety. I ended this affair, as other information came to light that was not disclosed. Now, after 8 weeks, I am still getting a few minor annoyances.So, you did the right thing in making a choice of not putting yourself in a situation that could have turned ugly.Disclose all before meeting.Let the choice be made beforehand.

    Liars are just that.... We all have our own moral standards and not everyone will agree to others - for me personally attached men don't interest me. I do believe in fidelity in a relationship but to each their own... As long as each person can live with the decisions they make either as a single person or in a relationship who is to question what is right and what is wrong?

    My definition of doing the right thing, is doing the thing that you believe to be morally right at the time, regarless of the difficulty or sacrifice that might be involved. By that definition, I'd say you did the right thing. People are entitled to make their own decisions about the morality of lying but for me it doesn't fly. I struggle with the idea that it is ok for a person to lie to their partner, a person who they have committed to and who lives his or her life on the basis of trust, so long as they are honest with whomever they cheat on their partner with. I don't understand the morality, for example, of "Its ok for you to lie to your husband but it would be wrong of you to lie to me". I also struggle with the idea that a person who has an affair with a person who is attached is not in any part responsible for the fact that someone is being cheated on. Arguments such as "if he wasn't cheating with me hed be cheating on her with someone else" or "I have no obligation to her, as I've never met her" or "I'm not responsible for what he chides to do (with me)" are about as weak as they come. All that said, the morality or otherwise of people's decisions are all pretty fact specific and in some cases its easy to see why Ruby chooses to take her love to town. So best not to judge but just let them get on with it.

    Am more curious why you would seek validation from others about your choice? Are you regretting it? If how you reacted feels right for you then you have answered your own question.There is nothing wrong about being upset, frustrated, etc at being lied to or misled, if that is what happened. You said she was from here - did her profile state she was single? So if she has told you that she is single then yep, I would be annoyed at the waste of my time in corresponding and a "pre possible play meet*, if they were married - none of which would of happened if they had of disclosed that info from the start.Many people are more than happy to play with married others. The ones that lie about their marriage status are effectively taking your right of choice away. I would assume that those who would of still gone ahead knowing her status would be pissed if she disclosed that at her house - not exactly a good scenario for anyone if hubby walked through the door.Silver lining though, as least she told you the truth before anything happened.Answering your question, yes I would of done the same. As much as someone may have reasons for lying/cheating/whatever, I have my own valid reasons for not being the one they do it with. Sue me.

    People lie....we all lie....because we are human....and on a site like this we all need to be very cautious and understand that there are people here who are going to lie about their status,and many other things probably.There is nothing certain or safe about persuing a varied and interesting sex life,some understanding of the risks is required . This will no doubt not be the last time holdenf you encounter a person who has lied to you,tricked you even,but at the last minute you at least were given some sort of choice.Worse things have happened,as other posters have previously mentioned. As for the rest of us,the moral high ground is a heady place,the rush to the head in that rarified atmosphere is the reason adulterous women in other cultures are stoned and in the past burnt at the stake. So lets put this sort of thing in perspective , as jensman says people in glass houses and stones.

That's the thing he wouldn't need to because I care about him, have understanding to his needs, his yearnings and passions and I encourage him to explore them whether I am into it or not and I don't limit him with my fears or prejudice. We work things out in respect of each other together.If there is no point trying to be honest because the idea wouldn't for a second be considered then I can understand someone straying to explore bi sexuality as it is something they can't get from their partner. Ideally it would be best to work it out in the open and have permission but some partners are unable to accept that sort of thing (more so I would say a wife if the male wants to explore other men) Not everyone gets a chance to explore before they are married/ partnered or become parents and I am not so sure a marriage ending or a family break up for the sake of a bit of sexploration is a good thing. I hear you say then don't do it in the first place... well that's up to the individual to gauge- can they live with never or is it worth the risk in light of the consequences of notz? Can they handle the consequences of being found out. It is not always a disaster or marriage ending.There is risk in asking in the first place, there is cost in not doing anything at all and being an unhappy person and their is risk and cost in sneaking around and a benefit to experience things. SCENARIO 1- Hard working, loving dad, loves his narrow minded religious wife and they have a healthy sex life, he pays taxes, donates to charity and coaches the kids footy team - wants to have a couple of 1 off M/M experiences- Not how I would operate but no biggie in my book the problem IMO is the culture and conditioning that limits it in the first place. SCENARIO 2- Stay at home mum of 3, volunteers in the tuck shop, her homophobic husband who whilst a great provider is the jealous type, couldn't really care less about his wife's sexual happiness as he is more concerned with work and money. She works part time so hubby is not so stressed as he has an anxiety condition. She loves him and appreciates the stability for her family- I feel the same as before.Sorry guys for not considering you I just don't really have the right equipment. Though I could ask to borrow Meeka's strap on- just to see if the return for investment is worth it. I get your stance on it Mike and I agree with you for myself- I choose honesty but my partner and I have a unique sort of relationship that is hard to find and I understand the complications and limitation in the lives of others.

There is a darker shade of grey and a lighter shade of grey.Cass xxxQuoting 'sydneyboy3au' Quoting 'multiples_xxx' I think the grey area is with females wanting to explore their sexuality with another female and the husband being religious or an arsehole is not okay with it even though it is something that he can not do for her. I would help them out ;)WHy wouldn't that general principle hold true with a person of any gender? If your wife has a wicked gag reflex, or adamantly refuses to have anal sex or swing, how are you supposed to 'explore your sexuality'? I guess you could be even more grey and "Lovely wife Betty simply cannot shag like Jane from down the road ca

    if either one of us wanted to explore with others...without the other being part of it...or approving of the exploration, there'd only be two options...........that it would not happen, or the marriage would end. thats how we both feel, the two of us agree that the others attention needs to be on the relationship, not each of us on ourselves. for myself....if i felt compelled to explore anything, sexual, physical or romantic, with anyone else, be they male or female, I'd declare my intentions......and pack my gear and leave the marital home...permanently. if Shel felt the same compulsion..... I'd help her pack.....     if there was 'unfinished business', or 'questions left unanswered', that were so overwhelming that they just had to be satisfied, i'd be questioning the reasons to have become married in the first place, as the promises and undertakings spoken and unspoken, wouldve been for nothing........   the question from the OP is whether or not others feel the same way about 'cheating', and if he did the 'right thing'.   we both feel the same way about 'cheating' as this guy..... and have to agree, that yes....he did the right thing.....   in response to your scenarios..... scenario 1.........leave the marriage...sort yourself out, and once you've done so...look for something permanent with someone who understands you, or more importantly...fulfills you. scenario 2...... see scenario 1.   if someone approves of their partners desire to explore....then thats simply....not cheating is it? answering the question from the point of view that you'd not feel 'cheated' isnt quite right...because 'cheating' suggests you didnt know about it, and therefore wouldnt approve.......

    I think mostly because *his* principles prevailed even though he was so close! That's strong :) I just don't necessarily impose what I expect of myself and my relationship onto others.i.e scenario's it's the same for us hence the fact I am in a loving open relationship. Ours is very deep and intimate with real honesty- and a lifetime spent joined at the hip lol! If my arse looks fat in that he tells me and I appreciate it and if I spend $400 on something I don't say $200 etc and he knows he doesn't need to at least double his annoyance. We don't even white lie lol. I just accept that other people's marriage's may not be so fortunate/ cursed in being so intimate and close, I think it is pretty rare and special and I get that people get married for all sorts of reasons and they are not necessarily compatible or have the desire or ability to build real intimacy. Kids and family (think arranged marriage) have a lot to do with that.i.e, cheating, honestly I would question what communication and personal issues we had that he felt the need to hide it. I live in an alternate universe and we discuss everything conceivable. Thing is we are so open with each other it just isn't a reality at this point. Whilst there have been issues we are committed to our relationship and secure and take pleasure in each other having meaningful nsa experiences and each other indulging in our curiosities- we only live once. We are not into an open marriage so the only thing that he could do wrong is getting attached and we both have no desire for that. If he got attached I would sense it and he would tell me when he was ready to sort it out and I would give him a mouthful and a heartful and then a moment to get his priorities straight one way or the the and fix it, as he has afforded me in the past....our journey has not been without steep learning curves and our intimacy has been earned. We are both with our flaws and accept that we are human, make mistakes and can learn, change and better ourselves as long as we work together- which we can/do... same as others. :) I am sort of getting off topic again :( but that's how it is for me and how come I have that perspective on cheating.Cass xxx

    Ok.. I have followed this thread through, and made a few comments... all the time wondering what is right and wrong, and what would I have really done.. This verdict has been reached after long and arduous thought processes...   I understand I DO NOT travel to every marriage in the world and stand up and tell all parties concerned I WILL NOT have sex with either partner... That task/promise, I believe is an understanding strickly between the TWO people getting married.. I realise I can not judge a person as to WHY they felt compelled to hide the married status from me, nor can I legitimately feel BETRAYED when ultimately told.. yadda yadda yadda... I could go on and on.. BUT.. remember this is all in light of a lot of responses from all concerned here... I would have had sex with her   NOW.. on the night is question.. where I didnt have a single response from ANYONE at all... what would I have done?   I would have *chuckled* to her.. and gone for broke.. I would have taken her to whatever level I was capable. I would have spent as much time with her that I could, and given her as much attention as possible..   THEN.. IF she wished to speak about the "Why's and Wherefore's" I would have listened..and still not judged her.. and would have done as much as possible to engage her for further experiences... I MIGHT even have had some advise for her as far as her relationship is concerned... except for a huge understanding I have in ALL relationships... That is.. there are THREE sides to EVERYONE of them.. 1) the HER side 2) the HIS side 3) the REAL side Her decision to play is hers alone.. for whatever reason.. it is.. she will NEVER tell me even her OWN truth of the matter.. she will only ever try to justify her actions.. as will he, If i were ever to sit in a pub and have a beer with him. So would I. That my dear friends IS human nature.... SO IS F***ing!!   IN FACT, I have come to the conclusion.. from a number of ways that the originator of this thread has not been totally truthful to us also.. "Holdenf" - I am confident has NOT told us the full and therefore truthful recount of the night in question.. AND wish he would message me with the girls name.. so I MIGHT offer something she missed out on that night..   Of course.. I COULD be wrong.. :)   Caveman.. (being himself.. by his very nature..) x

    I find it fascinating that people who espouse a non monogamous lifestyle can be so moralistic about another persons   behaviour,a person you have never met and whose story has been told third hand.   People who are convinced that monogamy is the only moral pathway would be as passionate in their arguments too.   They would metaphorically stone everyone who is not monagamous.

    Cheating is a somewhat dated attitude. The one absolute truth that I hold dear is that, to be an ethical person, you must adhere to the golden rule. (Check out jennylee's thread on the golden rule to see some of the variants.) Other wise, be true to yourself. You only live once (disregarding, for the sake of arguement, the notion of reincarnation) and everyone has the right to pursue their own happiness. If a person could be accepting and forgiving if their partner were to stray, then they wold not be hypocritical to "cheat" themselves. As far as I'm concerned, if a person is unwilling or unable to give his/her partner happiness, then the partner has a right to look elsewhere. Ideally, the marriage should be disolved before moving on but there can be several reasons that a person is unwilling to do so. Things can get very muddied in inter person relationships. You may believe you will behave a certain way in a given situation but untill you've been there, you don't really know. Try not to judge others too critically. Show a bit of compasion first.

    I think I did the right thing the other night   I ran into a friend of mine I had not seen for years, she has been married 28 years I went and had a few drinks and dinner with her and I noticed she was drinking a fair bit, and that is not her style.   She was an is a beautiful woman, when we were young every one called her the McLean girl, today she is just as lovely. She told me that her vagina has atrophied to such a state that she the doc cant even get in to do a pap smear and told her to get hormonal cream.   The doc ask her how is your husband managing to have sex.   The reply he does not, and my friend started to cry   her husband has not had sex with her for 15 years.   He will not talk about it but the start point was when is brother got killed. He would not and will not seek help, she loves him with a passion and they still share a bed.   On the tip of my tongue was red hot pie, but I was wiser this time I did not encourage her to participate here. Or to cheat as I know now it will only bring her a pile of whip arse and critsism and make her life a missery as it has for another female friend of mine, re copping flack.     So women and men who have no sex, can just suck it up now. and not be cheating fuckers. they can be no fuckers instead   I think we can just reach the point of no return. Maybe I need to rip of my hormone patches, and let my libido die a natural death.     I need to suck it up myself and start drinking?

This sort of things is what breaks up a couple, family and communities apart.People say they do it and other people say its ok to do it if your sexual needs are not being met, well i say fucken bullshit to that and what a load of crock that is to say as there is a lot more at steak then your own selfish needs. if its that important to you then leave your partner first before thinking of your selfish self first.like i say do the right thing first and then focus on your self.

    You know she could have been setting you up so that her husband would come home, bash you and leave her. It could have been a way out of the relationship for her. For safety alone, I would have said no. As far as cheating, you know, it's your karma, it's your life, and it's your situation. You gotta weigh everything up, including your own values, how much you would hurt your partner or would they cope with you cheating. Each to their own!

I always ask straight up and also say what im after if its not the same thing no harm done. Hiding one thing will lead to a hundred things... being pregnat stds break ups .... Just be staight up its not that dam hard id rather the truth than hide it from someone... It will send you both crazy.

    Personally I like FunLoving's suggestion that she may have been trying to give it the flick. Hehe. The only trouble with that theory is that a lot of men might've said, "Oh well, what he doesn't know won't hurt him," and then she would've been stuffed. "Er... and I also have thrush." A lot of people have focussed on the fact that HoldenF did the right thing here- especially HoldenF himself. I'd like to draw attention to the fact that the woman in question eventually did the right thing also. I agree, it would have been much better to have been told up front. But I give her points for being honest when it came down to the crunch time. If she were truly a ball of immorality and lies she could have said that she wasn't married (granted the evidence around the house may have been a problem) or, the more usual one, "we have an open relationship. He's having fun in Sydney tonight with a cute blonde so he told me to enjoy myself." Because my morals are important to me as well, I would have much rather been told at the door the truth about her situation than to have gone through with it on a false basis. And mate, it's great to have the strong morals that you do. But the parting shot at her was really unnecessary. She could be the world's loneliest woman with the world's most dysfunctional marriage. Who knows, maybe her husband was in Sydney with a cute blonde - just without permission. You don't have to participate but a better way to end it would have been,"Thank you for telling me now. Look, I've got to go, I don't believe in cheating and I won't do it. I would have rather you had told me up front. But thanks for your interest and the drinks and chat at the pub. I had a good night and I hope you did too. Goodbye."The poor thing probably went inside and cried herself to sleep in guilt and loneliness. Even worse, she was honest and had a bad experience. So what motivation does she have to be honest the next time she convinces a guy to come home with her, if he's just going to use it to put her down?

Being cheated upon after your loyalty to your spouse over the years and forgiving the asshiole over n over again is heartbreaking . But how much more heartbreaking being alone and at the end of the day feeling lonely and unwanted ? No one deserves to be alone babe ... sometimes it's a must to give that cheater a taste of his own medicine.

But if someone ask important Q and states they want honesty they do have a right to be told the truth. So am i wrong here maybe im asking to much of people these days...

    I wont go into another one of my stories here so you can see a totally different side and it happened to me and how things ended up (all friendly I will say with all concerned and in both split ups) What I will say, is that the OP may feel remorse hence asking every one. The end of the day you/ we need to live with ourselves. If it was right or wrong what you did it is only right or wrong in your eyes, its down to your morals, upbringing and beliefs If I was in the same situation who knows till I am in that situation but I am sure I would explain as comforting as possible to the person at the time my reasons, again just me. We believe Sundays is a day of rest, Muslims/Arabs believe Friday is, are they right or wrong do we judge them for it no, so why judge this poor lady who may as another poster said just want that bit of attention or felt some thing she wanted to explore. I admit not saying sooner was a down fall, and maybe she should have not said anything till afterwards from leaving it so late. You don’t know what her mind set is or where it was or guilt she may or may not have. Any situation like this should be taken softly/thoughtfully and carefully as you have no idea of the agenda or situation the lady is in. In majority of situations it is usually the male that neglects his lady as in new sport new toy new mates or working crazy hours with out thinking of the lady you created and made a relationship and home with. I feel a woman is very much like a cat, if you don’t show appreciation, feelings, love, etc she may move on. How ever what ever reason I am sure she has one, it is a shame you didn’t sit for a while and be a little bit of a mediator to her situation you may have found a good set of friends. I would love to see how you would react if a woman came home with you then got up all angry and ran out the door, I am sure your ego would fall through hell. Not getting at the OP but if your not ready to open your eyes and arms to every situation you maybe confronted with on here and have some tact to you actions and emotions then sit back a while, or now you see all these posts re-think every thing over as anger is not a way to go. It takes enough courage in its self to actually meat up with some one of these sites even more so for women. Saying all that I am a true believer if you are unhappy where you are move on if still unhappy move again, if you stay you will always be unhappy
