Okay, there seems to be some criticism and negativity about affairs here...imagine that, on an AFFAIR SUPPORT BOARD, but whatever. What I would like to know is, which do you think is the lesser of two evils...two married people having an affair with no intention of leaving their spouses...just out for a good time playing around for as long as they can without getting caught, OR, two married people who are really in love with each other and would like to leave their spouses because they tired of the sneaking around and lying but are trying to figure out the right time and way to end their marriages? What is the difference between the two affairs? :)

Okay, now that we know your real intent in posing this question.
This debate regarding support vs. criticism always
i think it's funny the issue comes up repeatedly because some posters don't understand that support and blanket criticism are not the same thing. Support should mean that answers vary as the situations vary. But if every answer is "affairs are wrong" then that fails to offer support or recognize that not all affairs are the same.
wonder if that has anything to do with the falling attendance here?
so on to the next part - since i am from the camp that thinks affairs are not all the same. i took "lesser of two evils" as "less intentionally hurtful" - emphasis on intentionally. the sexually affair is purely for fun and is planned without regard to the particular AP and without an intent to change the situation. "we like things the way the are - on the side." the romantic affair is unplanned and happens based on circumstances to lead to an emotional decision with some intent to change the situation. "we recognize it's wrong and we would like to make it right." so i go with less evil in the emotional affair.
IMHO,
Mrs.
