When my wife first started traveling a lot for work, one of my co-workers asked how I knew she wasn't having an affair. I said, "What's the difference? Either way I have to make my own lunch."
That's my philosophy. |

Good point HLJ. Being cheated on hurts in ways that are not easy to deal with. It strikes a blow to trust and once that is damaged or destroyed it is extremely difficult, if possible, to rebuild.

Especially if you went out on a limb with the trusting thing, knowing how deceitful people can be. You're like "DAMN, I should have known better, should have followed my instincts, should have realized when he/she said he/she was the king/queen of some unheard of country that they are big liars."
Live and learn.

Some of the difficulty is that after that trust is broken and in cases, even before, even the appearance of an impropriety can be very destructive - Unfortunately.
Live - remove ANOTHER knife from heart - and learn.

Hence protective devices such as shields, deflectors, fences, and moats.
