An old saying

"I WOULDN'T SEE ANOTHER MAN IN MY ROAD, EVEN IF HIS A..E WAS STUDDED IN DIAMONDS" lol

Seriously, if you're in a relationship, you should be faithfull to each other.

As for being "the other woman" or "the other man", if they cheat on their partners for you, they can cheat on you for someone else.

I am sure that good partnerships have been fostered on the internet between those that were free to form them, but, as in real life, a lot of damage can be done by flirting, that is true in cyber land as in real life.

I've added this comment, because Ann has it spot on.

I met my other half through the internet. I'll admit not through chatting to him, but through a friend. I had chatted to in as part of a group, but nothing more than that. But when we went along to a meet, something clicked. It's the most unlikely pairing you could come across mind, but we definitely connected and we've been together for 8 years now.

However, I've been at the other end of the scale too. When I was married, my husband began chatting to a young girl of 20 online. He got very deeply involved but....he was pretending to be twenty years younger. However his story meant that I had my first child at 13!!! She didn't see through it. He actually bragged about it and said its not real, it's harmless. He refused to stop, I couldn't walk into the dining room, where the PC was, without being told I was snooping and to mind my own business. She sent letters to him through the post, and gifts. He refused to stop it, still insisting it wasn't real.

Then the girl's HUSBAND (yes, she was pretending too) sent him an email pleading with him to stop this, he didn't want to lose his wife and BABY DAUGHTER. My husband laughed, and thought it very funny, calling myself and my daughter to view the email!

Luckily my daughter took note of the husbands email address and sent them one back telling them the truth. He never heard from her again, but he blamed me for that, and the resentment and contempt he showed towards me ended our marriage after 22 years.

Shame my family didn't think that was grounds for divorce...

I wouldnt be very Teresa if my OH was pretending to be 20 years younger and chatting to a girl of 20, it just shows how dangerous the internet can be.
