TM 142. Monogamy

I can't imagine not being monogamous. It's the way I was raised, to think about being faithful to one's partner. Infidelity is something harsh and cruel that only leads to heartbreak. Granted, I've had times in my life wherein my judgment was questionable, and I'm ashamed to say that I have had affairs with married men. But, she says shamefaced and backpedaling, I was always faithful. Faithful to the unfaithful. Honestly, Dana...

None of us is perfect. An obvious statement, true, but a fact that is sometimes overlooked by those who deem themselves the last word on what is and is not right. While I would never be unfaithful to the person with whom I was in a relationship, it is not my place to judge the deeds of others. I could only hope that my lover would give me the same regard. Barring that, I would hope to handle any betrayal with class and dignity. I believe one can be classy and dignified when chasing one's cheating lover with a gun.
