People who care too much are just usually insecure with themselves which will lead to separation anyway. Monogamy is a good thing when it comes to STD's, but marriage is for religion and the state.

well considering i caught my ex flirting and telling someone she loved them on an online game. then I can identify with the fact that it is annoying, and slightly hurtful. in my case I just barred her access to my computer for good

however, this is not newsworthy, its so evident that the majority of people focus on inane bollocks

In a large relationship (world leaders/people) this site seems to put great importance on violations of trust, rules and guidelines.

Does the importance of these things diminish in a one on one relationship?

Well that very thing happened to me this year except my wife actually left to go live with the dude she met. So while this individual story may not be big news I'm sure this is not an isolated incident. These Second Life personas can be pretty alluring to some. She was on that almost all day llong.

I don't have the patience for things like second life, first life is complicated and frustrating enough.
