I hated both of them 5 minutes into the movie.

They're both sneaking around behind their significant others' backs right from the start. Emotional affairs can be just as damaging as physical ones. If you need to sneak around and wait for your significant other to leave the house before checking your email or chatting online, it's pretty obvious you know you're doing something wrong. Focus your energy into your existing relationship or end it and move on. Fuck the inbetween and fuck both of them.

1. So, in other words, once a person finds their Significant Other, all friendships must come to an abrupt and immediate end, because if one were to find enjoyment in any other relationship, it would, in fact, be a form of emotional adultery.

2. If the above is true, should only single, unattached people be using this board because it constitutes an opportunity for unsupervised, unmonitored communication?

3. If a relationship with a Significant Other is based upon (of all things) TRUST, shouldn't the person not privy to the unmonitored communication actually not care because they are confident that relationships worth having are not based upon draconian micro-managing?
