Yikes.
I just saw a strange commercial on TV. Attractive woman, boorish man on a dinner date. Turns out they're married, and he needs to attend to business somewhere else. Then, she eyes a handsome stranger, and www,ashleymadison.com flashes on the screen.
Puzzled, I pulled up the site and see it's a place advertising membership for discreet relationships. "Life is short. Have an affair" or something like that. Ack!

No affairs for me. I take my wedding vows seriously and that I'm am sure has kept me married for 30 years!!! But
Just because I am on a diet doesn't mean I can't look at the menu!!!

Me too. I've been with my bride for 20 years, married for 16 of them. Proud to wear the ring.

My husband and I had the infidelity conversation once. I assured him I would never cheat because I couldn't imagine going to all the trouble of lying, sneaking around, covering up, etc. Talk about stress! Not to mention the exhaustion of having to make 2 men happy. One is enough.
All that effort just to get laid? No thanks. My husband thought about it for a minute and then said, "So what you're telling me is that you'll never cheat on me because you're too lazy." Yeah. Pretty much. Jeannie |

Geez, Carolina - what channel were you watching? I'm amazed that there would be a business like that set up that would actually advertise on television!
Interesting, too, that they geared the ad toward women. |

I saw that commercial too. Some people just have no standards! My ex had an affair on me and I punished her the best way possible, I made it possible for her to have the guy!

would the ad have been less offensive if the couple had not been married?

Yeah, I found that interesting as well. Not terribly surprised, though - I guess this ad was meant to empower women?

Well the ad is interesting but if a married person is going to step out on their partner, they sure don't need a web site to do it!!!

Leo, maybe it's the "eHarmony" for cheating on your spouse?? Someone's gotta make a buck on everything.

I have had the chances to, but never even wanted to follow through, my wife is all I need to make me happy, and she does a great job of it...we go out on walks, go to the mall, or just hang out here at the house. I could never even think about having an affair behind her back.

Crazy stuff. Seriously, though - if someone wanted to remain discreet, why would they get a website involved? The potential for discovery would be high, wouldn't it? What if private investigators could hack into the sites, or work on the inside, or what have you?
Unless - as in some marriages, including my parents' - they don't give a flip if the other spouse is cheating? |

Crazy! What is this world coming to? Now we have promos for cheating!?
My husband actually told me about this site...apparently they ran an ad during SuperBowl! Guess I missed it. Pretty sad if you ask me. I think most couples have had the 'infidelity' talk...if you love and respect your spouse there's no reason to stray IMO. |
