The excuse is "they were easy to talk to and understood all my problems unlike my wife/husband" of course they are going to be sympathetic - they only hear one side and have ulterior motives for talking to you in the first place. conversations about problems aren't easy to have with a spouse - but to make your marriage work you have to have them. <BR/><BR/>Just like alcohol, gambling, smoking etc - the internet can be an addiction - it is a placebo for something else you need - and if not done in moderation - can cause irreparable damage. <BR/><BR/>I don't thing married people need "myspace" or "face book" or need to be chatting into the wee hours of the morning with online "friends". When married, your life should stay in the real world.Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17819332544413521893noreply@blogger.com
