O, be some other name
What's in a name
That which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as sweet
O, emotional affair be some other name
What's in a name
That which we call an affair
By any other name would smell as rotten
Does it matter how we step
When the first step we take
Put's us the slippery slope
Down the road of infidelity

Down the road of infidelity Yup.. Whether it be classmates.com or myspace to facebook now twitter. Social medias are a feeding ground for affairs. My dad (who refuses to have a computer and cell phone) said the Internet will be the death of us all.

My dad (who refuses to have a computer and cell phone) said the Internet will be the death of us all. I won't go so far as saying that the internet will be the death of us all. But I can say this: the day Facebook helped itself to changing my privacy settings (that I had set to Friends only) to a setting that anyone could see was the day I cancelled my Facebook. They said "Oops! Our bad". I said "I'm done." Control your online presence.

It's all about boundaries.
My ex wife's affair started on Facebook.
I have a fb account that only family members have Access to.
It is a blessing because my relatives can see pictures of my kids ( for free).
But boundaries.
If I get maried again all of these issues will be discussed and agreed to beforehand and MB principles will be in the vows.
