The question …

I’ve never blogged before, so bear with me until I get the hang of it.

To cut to the chase, this blog is intended to record a personal, internal journey about whether or not to cheat on my wife. Just writing those last few words makes me pause because this is the first time I have actually expressed that thought in a form other than in my mind. I feel that I need an outlet for the inner dialog I am having about this question (to cheat or not?) and I don’t know who I can safely talk to about this struggle I am having. Obviously, it is not a subject to bring up with my wife. And talking to friends is risky because it will somehow get around and back to my wife. A therapist might be an option, but it would be hard to do without being discovered. And so I have decided to attempt this in an anonymous blog.

I’m not sure where this will ultimately lead, but if it is somehow helpful or entertaining or illuminating to anyone (including me), I will be pleased.
