I’m a single man, not married or committed. I’m free and if she meant enough to me, I’d get tested for everything under the sun.

Its tough sometimes, but I can’t encourage cheating either. Out of a woman. ONLY if I know she is not happy and we have a genuine connection, in a relationship. Not a marriage. If I know for a fact that relationship is done and she is not happy, if we like each other, I would have no issue with leading her away at that point. But I don’t like being the other man. Everyone hates you. Like the Sloan song The Other Man. Especially if I respect her. Even if I want to get next to her Especially if I like and respect her. Like say for example, when I’m thinking to myself about her “what would my mother this of that?” Which I don’t normally do, but under these circumstances it’s a valid question. Maybe she knew my mother at one point. Take it a step further, let’s face it, my mother loved her. She would never at any time have anything bad or negative to say about her. What she would think is I’m wrong. And stupid for being an idiot earlier in life when it came to her. Which leaves me thinking, yeah, I wish, I really do, but there’s a respect there where I don’t even know them, but would not want to be part of what fucks it up. You know, and I think I might need certain things if not now, eventually, which is not good for that.
