seriously tho-find another hobby? like yours? tellin people what to do? no thanks i have my husband for that
seriously tho whats with these recycled topics today about how wrong CS is and lets fix it
heres my take on it CS hosts this party they appreciate couples' staying-its good for business-DUH! so others rule-making desires go in one ear and out the other i serve god, my husband and the wishes of CS Admin and everyone else can bite it
or if you prefer
ill give up my modem when you come and find me and pry it from my cold dead laptop
As to the married ones who swing, well, hey...it takes all kinds and it's not up to me to judge. Ignore them and look at the singles. You can use that as a search criteria in your advanced searches, and you can put in your profile that you're only interested in single people of the opposite gender for dating.

Another yes vote for those married folks who started on hre,found someone,here or elsewhere and are still around.We would miss much if they all left.I thought it odd when I first came on and Peaches and Ray were on here married.However I know know if I marry,I my well come into threads to say hi to people I have got to know.This to me is not like any other site I am or was on.It's different here,the interaction we have.So if I opposed those couples being here,I'd never know that people really do find love on datng sites.I feel to each thier own and there are some singles I'd rather see leave honestly.

venere08: I would just like to add a quick comment. The thread refers to 'married people'. NOT married couples.
This accepted, those who have posted seem to agree, that the thing that concerns them, if anything, about a married person posting on this site, is the specific type of married person, ie the situation they are in which could ultimately impact on the emotional well being of another person they might forma bond with over time, during their online interactions.
I don't think I need to spell out the issues that could arise from someone who is 'separated', and so is still married, even if the two people live separately. This scenario was covered earlier in the thread by a couple of other CS's.
When that 'separated' person still has a significant enough relationship with their wife/husband', essentially some sort of emotional ties may still exist. Certainly resolution has not been achieved by at least one party.
Problems may occur when that 'separated (still very married) CS person relating to another very SINGLE CS. The 'married' CS may perhaps not be treating online relating as 'real' or 'serious', or that real emotions are actually involved. Then these two people meet in RL. I don't have to spell out the potential issues that may occur when these two people meet. It may be only then that the 'separated/married person realises that it is a real person that was actually online. And that real emotions are now to be sorted out, not just for one, but possibly both.
Any other scenario of being separated/married on this site, really matters not, as apart from personal preference/bias, has no measurable impact on anyone's emotional/mental wellbeing.
That scenario I agree with as stated above under my original post if you look up and read

I understand and agree with your post...a very good and fair one... Although, in my case, my husband doesn't post on here, he's not a member either. He does have access to my computer and account here if he chooses...but he chooses not to because we have trust. Trust is very important with both of us... But there have been a few other comments that aren't quite as fair as yours... example:
dancingfarmer: My personal preference would be to keep the friends I made on here by e-mailing them directly and not staying on a singles site after I got married. You don't need to stay on this site to keep in contact so that excuse doesn't hold water.
IMO, that's a very close minded way of thinking...and it may have really offended some...such as myself...

I hope the married people here on the forums stay...we would all miss you very much!! You are a testament to what most of us on CS wish to aspire to. Thank you for staying and sharing your joy, and sometimes hardships of your marriages.
I have seen the posts about separated people. When I was young, I dated on 2 separate occasions women who were separated and going through a divorce. In both cases, the relationship ended when the divorce became final...

whilst my view on that doesn't change. My attaching Kamelia for her comment was out of line. I should have read a bit further along and seen what she mean't by her comment.
So sorry Kamelia, but as I said Married couples on here are welcome in my opinion and I luv's them the ones that make it know they are of course .
Venera, thanks for taking time to clarify things - without you this thread started resembling a game 'Broken Telephone'

Thank you Ken, you're such a sweet and positive friend.
I've really gotten quite upset about this whole matter, so I think I'm gonna bow out now...I've stated why I'm here...and my marital status...I've been very upfront about it on here and in my posts... ...lots to think about now...
Anyway...I hope this thread become a bit more optimistic and positive...

you are upfront and honest and thats all anyone can ask.
If you don't mind being here and your hubby doesn't then go for it, that's the only opinions you need to worry about at the end of the day
i didnt think it was all the way bad as telephone...??
i mean that comment by dancing farmer? omygosh soulmate sweetie you didnt owe such an explanation!
and i dont need any of my feelings or decisions to ???? hold water??
its nobodys business who is on this site but Admin seriously their attitude is they are the hosts and guests who arent happy or are unruly may 'go home'
i dont need an "excuse" to do anything except that ive chosen so
good grief
i may have disagreed with people here and there and even argued or slung insults but i would never ever be so inappropriate as to think i have any place to tell people to not be here-and ive seen alot of that lately and its uncool
i mean if ya see people on profiles ya can send em a note to leave or a shame on you youre married OR you can report the profile to admin but to make all these threads people-just ridiculous
if its about private non forum profiles report em if that were the issue this thread wouldnt have begun or continued
thats just what i think but im just another member and we are all equal
