janie1305: Jac, I think the question refers to folk who continue to log on after having found the "love of their life".
Yes, if you have found someone and made a commitment to the , and them to you, if they object to you continuing to look for alternatives, you should respect their wishes, if you don't you are not really committed and are still looking.
Obstinance_Works: I would if it was that serious. As a single man I feel ashamed about coming on here as it is and if I had a proper, serious girlfriend - as opposed to the stream of floozies I'm currently ploughing my way through - then I'd feel not twice, but thrice the shame about coming on here for my daily howl at the moon.

Do I have a choice in whether I'm looking for alternatives, or not?
Do I have to look for alternatives because that's what you expect me to do? How are you going to enforce that against my will?

That doesn't make sense
If you have made a commitment to someone why would you looking for an alternative.
As others have stated if both parties are happy for each other to continue using the site for contact with friends,then that is entirely their business and should be respected.
It's not for us to tell others how to conduct their personal life.j.m.o.

If you wish to look for alternatives you are not committed and therefore I would not have the same commitment to you. Do you understand what it means to commit to some one, you certainly don't go about shouting about being forced to commit against your will. But I suppose this does not sit well with your Marxist feminist outlook.
You certainly have the choice to look for alternatives, but this has nothing to do with committing to one person, or don't you understand that??

That's not answering the question I asked.
I asked if by being a member of CS and having made a commitment, how you're going to force me to look for alternatives against my will?
Yeah, I know its a totally mad question, but it was a reflection of your totally mad statement that by being a member I have to be looking for alternatives to any commitment I've made.

WEll that bears no relationship to what I actually said.
Do you have cognitive problems as well as others.
I see I am not the only one whose posts you put bizarre interpretations on

Glitch101: Oh no we don't.
I obviously am not the only one who had difficulty reading your post.
Allowing others to form and have opinions on certain subjects is healthy,something you fail to do frequently, as others have also pointed out to you on numerous occasions.
Its not just this confusing post of mine you've made snarky remarks about though, is it? Its a pattern at the moment.
My post you found confusing was deliberately confusing. I stated in the post it was a reflection. Its a reflection of all the mixed messages out there of how loads of different people think everyone else should adhere to their personal social rules, definitions and expectations.
Its ironic that you should dismiss my opinion about people having the right to their own opinion by implying my opinion is boring, smartly followed by accusing me of not allowing others to have an opinion.
