| LIFE I'm not married. Ya'll know this. But, gotta ask. If you tell a wife "do this, but don't tell your husband." Or, flip it, "don't tell your wife."

[Krimson]

I get this. But I don't buy it.

Avoiding perception. The people that know me don't have a perception: they know who I am. And, if they don't? Fuck 'em.

Let me leave you with an analogy. My mother has NEVER

It's not about outside perception to me it's about having boundaries that prevent any issues between friends. Do i believe my best friend would do anything with my wife? No I don't, trust him a lot but is there a scenario where they could both screw up? Maybe. So to me it's about not putting me or her in a position where that scenario could occur. I've had wives of associates come on to me and have given in when I was young, single, having a few and my morals weren't so great. To me it's kinda like the good fences good neighbors analogy. I avoid the possibility.

I don't go to bars alone because women and alcohol are 2 of my weaknesses. I don't avoid bars or movie theaters because of outside perception like your mom, I avoid them to help keep me from doing something stupid.
