    quite simply, if anyone has trust issues, then you shouldn't be in a relationship.

    Don't know if anyone has pointed out the glaring error in the 90% but it is incorrect. You are using 200% as your sample i.e. You are adding two samples of 100 together so the correct percentage is 45%. A much more believable statistic.

    My partner is an identical twin, so yes, while I haven't thought about explicitly "cheating" having them both in bed at the same time would be something of a dream.


    However, I trust her completely and I'm not the cheating kind either. We have tough moments like any couple and I haven't ever thought in my life about cheating.


    She has hardly any friends and neither do I, we are both mostly just close to our families. She doesn't even use her mobile phone. I use mine regularly but she knows the passcode and has her fingerprint saved into it. She knows all the passwords for most of my stuff on the computer too. Again, she hardly even uses the computer for anything, she's a bit technologically adverse to be fair (she's 27 lol).


    We both don't have anything to hide and we both live a relatively simple and quiet life.

    Think the OP should really deal with the issues. Sorry but if you've been with your other half that long and you still check his phone, you have deep issues. The situation youre in can't be healthy, I mean you could see he stays at work for an extra couple of hours and check his phone incase... Not bothered about my OH phone, my fingerprints registered to it incase I need to use it (haven't, not the remotest bit interested in his apple product!) And he knows my password... As far as I know he doesn't check either, wouldn't find anything interesting other than cute animals wearing hat pics ��

    Ok dream was actually a strong word to use. I don't truthfully dream of it. But I can't say I'm not curious.

    Not sure if this is serious or not. ;)

    I have to ask; how would you feel if your wife said she dreamt about having you and your brother in bed together? Or if you don't have a brother, what if she wanted to sleep with you and your mate?

    It's the same thing. You are imagining sleeping with her and her sister. :eek:

    You're not singing anymore........ You're not singing any-more! :D
  • Fact. Cheating happens not because it was intended, but it was a spur of the moment thing.
    Most men and women will cheat given half the chance and especially if they think they will get away with it. Most one night stands and a bit more is usually when the couple are, or had a tiff.

    Your choice if you want to check or not.

    We've been through this before.

    I've fixed it for you (again).
    Just because you say it, doesn't make it true.

    Why would it bother me? Whether I'm being serious or not doesn't matter, it's just a dream. It's never going to happen.


    I'm far too laid back to let something like that bother me even if she did mention something like that. I'd just laugh.


    It might be shock horror to you judging by your use of "EEKs" but each to their own.
