    Never been caught, because I've never properly played away (as below).

    10-12 years ago (when, FTR, I was in my teens!), I had a boyfriend. He bored me. Why I was with him, I don't know, just a teenage thing.

    Every weekend I used to go out clubbing with my friends (without boyfriend) and snog lots of boys. Lots. But no further than that, as I've never been that type of gal.

    Intoxicated, I used to ring my boyfriend every time, just to announce and stress how 'good' I'd been. It's not like he asked me to call, I just did it anyway.

    I think he used to see right through it :rotfl:

    No, nothing to be caught out over, I have never played away.

    I will also say that I never would either. It is a horrible way to live your life and to treat those who are supposed to mean the most to you.
    The best day of your life is the one on which you decide your life is your own, no apologies or excuses. No one to lean on, rely on or blame. The gift is yours - it is an amazing journey - and you alone are responsible for the quality of it. This is the day your life really begins.

    Nope, I've never cheated or been the OW. I've been cheated on and I know what the pain is like, so I think I can safely say that something would have to seriously wreck my moral compass before I inflicted that on another person.

    I know people say things like "you're not the cheat, he's the one that's married" and "if he doesn't cheat with you, he'll look elsewhere anyway" to which I think, so what? That's for their conscience if they have one. Mine's okay.

    And yes, I know people end up in dead/dying relationships then meet the one they think they are truly meant to be with, and "we can't see what's round the corner". Maybe not, but I'd like to think that I could end one relationship with as much dignity as possible before bedding someone else and if the someone else were worth waiting for on my part, they'd wait for me too.

    Funny how the people who come out with such rubbish are always the cheats or their enablers, never the ones cheated on, isn't it?
    Public appearances now involve clothing. Sorry, it's part of my bail conditions.

    Is this thread directed at people who play baseball, softball, cricket, rounders etc in a league - and may be 'caught out' in an away game?

    Or is it yet another attempt to get cheap, prurient kicks in a moneysaving way - by trying to get people to share stories of their sexual adventures and misadventures; peccadilloes; and scumbag cheating?

    Me neither, and I never would.

    I don't even have an ex.
    I married my cousin. I had to...
    I don't have a sister. :D
