NO......NO....and again......NO!

I'm speaking from experience.

You're still married.....even if you are seperated.

How do you actually know that it will make your WS jealous anyway? It may backfire and the WS could take it as a sign of you moving on.

I did this....but only because I was ready for a divorce. Considered my marriage over.
My H DID get jelous....but I felt terrible for the other guy. He ended up feeling like he'd been used when that was not my intention at all.

NOPE......no game playing. No tit for tat....none of that. If you want your marriage to work....you can't bring someone else into it...isn't that what your WS did to begin all the chaos?

Well,you probably already know that getting ivolved with another person to just make a spouse jealous isn't honorable or fair,at the least.Are you thinking of using someone in this way? If so I would vote against it.

To me being separated is being alone to sort out feelings and thoughts about your marriage,it is NOT a time to enter into other "relatonships" with other people.Until your are DIVORCED,you are still MARRIED and therefore getting invloved with anyone else is being unfaithful,period.

So,can you tell us more of why you are pondering this bad behavior?? How are things going for you?
