ORIGINAL: Suleiman Therein lies the rub, Bear. There seems to be as many definitions around here of what constitutes cheating as there are definitions of what constitutes a sub. Actually, I think I've only seen three basic definitions. One is, "Cheating is having a relationship and/or intimate contact with more than one person." Granted, there is some variation on what constitutes a "relationship" or "intimate contact" in this sense; perhaps that is what you meant. Then there is "Cheating is having a relationship with more than one person, unless it's me doing it. Then it's just me having X seperate relationships with X different people. But if anyone else has more than one relationship at a time they're cheating and it's wrong." And then there is the valid definition: "Cheating is breaking the rules of a game, when you have agreed to play that game by those rules." That IS what the word "cheat" means at root isn't it? To mark the cards, to load the dice, to spike the other team's gatorade, to hide a ten dollar punch in your boxing glove. Rather fundamentally, it is to lie, because you either explicitly or implicitly agreed to play by the rules and play fair. But to get back to the original topic: A woman who was submitting to Me online revealed eventually that she had a vanilla paramour already. she had some really extreme fantasies and a lot of shame and guilt about having them. But I encouraged her to share that part of her with the Man in her life. "If you love Him, if you trust Him, you should let Him see who you really are." I figured one of two things would happen: either He would accept this new level of intimacy, or at least not completely freak out, and she could continue the relationship on a more open basis, happy ending for her; or he would react with rejection, ending the relationship and freeing her to give herself to Me totally and in truth, happy ending for her AND for Me. Either way would be a resolution; I did not consider the situation acceptable, or tenable, for the long term. So how did He react? she picked a time they'd have a lot of time together alone, let all her filthy degrading fantasies pour out - and He proposed. Vanilla paramour turned out not to be so vanilla after all. He is now her Master and her Husband. Happy ending for both of them anyway - and as for Me, I have the satisfaction of knowing I did the right thing. And, every once in a while, I get to hear from her still about the awful, terrible, wonderful things He does or makes her do. Lucius Alexander House of the Palindromedary
