    I can’t advocate cheating, but I care about you.

    I loved Desperate Housewives and Battlestar Galactica.

      I would never have cheated if i felt in any way physically appreciated in the years before. The temptation wouldn’t have been there in any way if my ex had show interest in me in any way the months before out breakup - it’s not that i didn’t try to make her as comfortable as possible. I am someone who needs physical appreciation (not even sex - just cuddling would have been enough to feel connected), but that simply wasn’t available, and i latched onto someone who cared about my physical and mental needs. I’m not proud about what i’ve done, but it was simply the trigger that made us both realize we needed different things than what we were offering to each other.
