Wandering Eyes

So today in church the sermon was about relationships.  Briefly, the pastor talked about how dating sites like eharmony and match.com are on the rise.  In passing, he mentioned a similar site for people who are already married, which goes by the catchy slogan: "Life is short, have an affair."

While he was nice enough to not mention the site by name, a quick google search leads one to the site ashleymadison.com.  I've never heard of this site before, but apparently it caused quite a stir when it put up a billboard in West Hollywood as part of an advertising campaign three years ago.  I haven't actually entered their site (you have to sign up for that), but i personally find it funny that one of their come ons is "Have an affair... guaranteed!"

I guess there's a lot of unhappy people out there.  Doing quick google searches on affairs and even swingers yields a bunch of resources (mostly sponsored links, some local) where the unhappy spouse could potentially go looking.  Wow.

Whatever floats your boat, i guess.



EDITORIAL COMMENT: For the record, i am happily married to a beautiful, smart, funny, thoughtful, caring, understanding (of course she would have to be, she married me!), sexy, passionate woman.  Her name is Gianina.  I love her and will love her for the rest of my life.  And if i never have to use these sites, it'll be too soon.
