or fits their lifestyle, the person could be an albatross,
but all these variablles don't matter because even after they marry
they intend to dabble and stray,
Simply, because their other half is not able to fulfill obligations
in so many ways, so, they get their kicks anyway they can,
secretly and underhandedly, in covert missions with individuals who are
specially recruited to play,
No one's the wiser or cares, until, confronted with thir activities unaware......
