There is only one path in life.

 

                                                               Some know it, some don't.

Some know it, some don't.

 

And those whom don't know it, need to find it themselves.

The journey in discovery is part of the answer.

Accepting the world doesn't revolve around you, for one.

I dont agree with your statement 'we're more moral now than we have ever been'..

I do agree with 'we're more judgemental now than we have ever been' but thats a whole other story..

 

If, as you say 'if the partner doesn't know, what harm does it cause?' I suggest the person who wants to do something secretly think long and hard about how they would feel if it were done to them..then think long and hard about why they have to do this thing in secret- and be honest with themselves..

 

I think that loyalty is about honesty and having faith in the other person..

and if, over time, one becomes unhappy to the point of neglect, then I would think long and hard, really deeply to see what it really was I was unhappy about- perhaps I need to adjust my expectations, perhaps I imagine the grass to be greener, maybe I thought my life would be different at my age or whatever..but I would not act in secret and be such a coward as to attempt to blame the other person for wanting things to be different.

Bob, it's simple logic or no logic at all.

  Some can process all the info to come to the answer on the optimal path in life, some cannot, yet.

 

Those whom discover the answer to life and the universe also discover others need to reach the answer themselves in their own mind rather than listen to someone elses frame of mind.

Have you ever secretly had ice-cream or Mars bar when you know you shouldn't haveand you don't want others to know.  You're only hurting yourself.

Hey, just convert to Islam and have up to four wives or as many as you can support with financial equity.

 

Or just go the way of the temporary marriage 'So those of them [women] whom you enjoy, give to them their appointed wages' (4:24).

http://www.al-islam.org/muta-temporary-marriage-in-islamic-law-sachiko-murata/four-pillars-muta

 

 

The only reservation here is that this system favours the male to the disadvantage of the female participant.

 

But still, it is justified; in Islam.
