Fidelity

I just have to wonder if anyone still believes in fidelity.  You know, as in staying faithful to your partner.  There has to be a lot of people who do that, but they are scarce in my life lately.

Apparently, a promise does not mean that you actually do what it is that you promise to do, but do it only as long as it pleases you to do so, or until it becomes an inconvenience.

Apparently, it is fine to avoid working on your problems as a couple and just go off and mood alter by noodling around with someone who is not your partner.

Apparently, my moral code, one that defines relationships as those things that people enter and remain true to one another is an outdated, perhaps even ancient, notion.

Apparently, I am just a big, fat, out-of-touch-with-reality, fool.

Lordy.
