Very few people are faithful and there is actually a movement to insist that monogamous relationships are weak and dead ends. In reality, it's a justification fest as to why you should just go out and fuck anything that moves, gender neutral.
Some men don't care if their wife or girlfriend fucks around, but a lot of men care a great deal. Should they?
A woman will sell you out faster than you can even say the words. Never tell a woman anything, regardless of how long you've been fucking. When lines are drawn, your secrets WILL come out.
