LPT: If someone is willing to share other peoples secrets with you, they’re willing to share your secrets with other people.

Cheating isnt something I ever thought I'd do. When I was sixteen, I found a file on our family's desktop entitled "YOU". It was a letter my mom had typed to dad during what she later explained was an emotional affair. I had just gotten my first boyfriend the summer before, the rumors were constant of his indiscretions.. but he vehemently denied it, and I had no proof.. so, it just drove me crazy.

I feel like this might be the case for other cheaters as well, when set to autopilot some people will self sabotage. It's possible to change if a person can recognize their problem and do the self work, but sometimes when alcohol is involved it goes back to autopilot. That being said, I can't comprehend the long term affair crowd. How do you live a double life and lie for so long?
