If you had an Ashley Madison account, would you admit it to your spouse today???

Or hope they don't find out? And no, I don't have one.

on my wife. No worries at all. Lots of flop sweat over this, I'm sure. Zero sympathy for the sweaters. You make you bed...

Not even gonna bother searching whether she had one or not. Shes smart enough to use an email I'd never know about anyway

I believe it 100% honesty in a relationship.

That policy means I would not have an ashley madison account, but if I did the best thing to do is to be upfront about it.

I honestly don't believe that everybody of even 10% of people with an account will be exposed, but the best policy is still to come clean and let the chips fall where they will.

Not trying to be argumentative, I just find that no one is 100% honest with anyone. As Dr. House says, "Everybody lies."

I don't think I or anybody else has been 100% honest, but we should at least attempt to.

If she says "does this dress make my butt look big" the answer is always no. (for the record, she can see me typing this and is laughing at me right now).

I have a feeling it will become very public. People love the scandal of it all. Just look at Josh Duggar and his "Guaranteed Affair" account.

And he told me he knew I was joking because I would be hitting him with a frying pan by now.

I thought that was a right wing trait... I guess not. Sad and pathetic thread and responses.

"Ashley Madison" to discover that it's not a person.

I no longer have either of my spouses, but if they were still around, I wouldn't have an account, and if they did, the door would hit them on the ass before they knew WHAT had hit them.

Met a wonderful woman, got divorced and now we live together and couldn't be happier. Not all affairs end tragically.
