  Katiekitten & Scotsman.

  Thanks for your comments. I am aware what you are both saying and understand that emotion and integrity are all involved in these personal situations.

  Scotsman you ask in what way I would help? When someone tells me something they do it for a reason. They already know the risk that their behaviour involves and the possible consequences. In many cases it is a cry for help. There are always deeper issues that need to be dealt with. By addressing these issues, without judgement, the person can be helped to discover the real cause of their behaviour.

  If the person is happy with the situation and is not seeking my input then I keep out of it. In time situations and relationships resolve themselves. Ending friendships also ends any possibility of influencing the situation in a positive way or being around to help either party when the relationship eventually ends in tears. I probably respond to these situations differently to others because of my back ground and training

  influencing the situation in a positive way

  So you do think that curb crawling is negative - interesting!

  Stevenyc---Let's suppose the pro is not being pimped. That's what I mean about not getting into it with whatever these people decide to do. It ain't my "bidness".

  Your response to my comments indicates that you here to have fun. Nothing wrong with that and I hope I have provided you with some entertainment.

  In my last post I said, ‘There are always deeper issues that need to be dealt with.’

  Can I be forgiven for thinking that this may apply to you?

  Yes, IMHO, you are being very priggish. This man considers you a friend and confided in you as a friend. You certainly don't have to accept or agree to what he's doing, however, by casting him aside you see yourself as ' better ' than him.

  Out of control egos cause a lot of problems in this world.

  If a man is single and needs sex, I see no problem. If he is married it is a little bit different

  If he was sleeping with any of the prostitutes in jacksonville I'd avoid him for fear of catching the black plague or leprosy or some other disease...

  Nasty skanks...

  Are you looking down on prostitutes or the people that pay for their services?

  There are alpha males who could have an affair with just about anyone they want & anytime they want. They get more than their share of sexual experiences just because nature gave them that special look, athletic physique, and charming smile. Why should they be the only ones to have the experience of the attention of a beautiful woman. If everyone felt as you do then the Moslems have it right. Cover every woman in a Berka so no-one will ever be reminded about what they're missing.

  There's an old song Maxine Sullivan used to sing: One Hundred Years From Today

  Whose business is it? What difference does it make One Hundred Years From Today.

  So what if someone buys into a momentary fantasy. He's not going to be any deader than you when he dies.
