I don't think that SaphireLynn was saying that we should "discard from our lives everyone who had ever lied or cheated on someone" but that it is unwise to be in a relationship of that nature with them. And I agree with her. I can be friends with someone who cheats, as long as they don't ask my opinion of it - just like I'm friends with people who think that our being poly and/or into BDSM is horrible, so we don't discuss it with them. I can still be friends with them even if I don't approve ... but I won't assist them in cheating, and I make that clear. However, after being unwillingly involved in 2 different guys' cheating (one as the unsuspecting 'other woman' and one as the clueless SO - and yes, I was honestly clueless until Holly told me what she and rob found on the computer) - I will not condone or enable cheaters. I won't be a part of their cheating. It hurt greatly from both sides when I found out - although being the clueless SO was definitely worse. I was horrified when I got a message from the wife of a guy on here ... and devistated when I saw the conversations that allen had been having with 5 other women (over the course of 2 weeks ... hadn't been going on for very long, but it was quite extensive, obviously). When people are open and honest about things, then yay for them ... that's basically what we have, only we are looking for everyone to live together rather than two connected households like others we have talked to. The problem comes when someone is deliberately decieving someone that they have claimed to love - that they have made a commitment to. There are always other options - they may not be pleasant, but at least they are more honest.
