Is 100% faithfulness possible?

[shh!]

LOL! No, they don't (depending on age). Males peak in their early 20s, women in their mid 30s. A 38 year old woman is very likely to have a higher drive than a 38 year old male.

I don't think it depends on age, a male can remain sexually-driven for his whole life from adolescence under the influence of testosterone. I guess we have to agree to disagree =P

[shh!]

Yes, they CAN last throughout a lifetime, but it is normal for a male's testosterone level to decline with age. A woman's testosterone level likewise decreases, but at a less accelerated rate.

Shh is yanking your chain

I don't think this is a gender thing. If a person, male or female, does not occasionally imagine sex with a different partner it is because he or she suffers some form of sexual dysfunction or harbors an extremely unhealthy obsession.

It's natural. There's nothing to be ashamed of. And if it offends you, that's your fault for succumbing to puritanical nonsense.

I hope this isn't news to any of you, but every single woman you've ever dated, every man you've ever kissed, your wives, your husbands--they've all thought about sleeping with a different person. Not once or twice, but many, many, many times. Sorry to break this shocking news to you.

And yet at the end of the day the good ones would turn down the object of their fantasies to slip into bed with you. THAT is faithfulness.

I just crushed a young boy's hopes.

I couldn't have put it better myself.

Except, a little bit on morals. Who is to say what is good and what is bad? Who is to decide what is reality and what is fantasy? The individual.

Human sexuality is so diverse that it seems there are subspecies upon subspecies of humans, divided by their sexualities alone.

In the end it's like stacking up pins and knocking them down with the bowling ball. You can't quite put a price tag on anything when there is nothing to compare. It's nonsense.

lol yes you have! you're such a bubble burster.

*cackle* *cackle* got a little Pausch?

Well I thought it was a good joke.

Women can have very strong sex drives, but men biologically have a stronger one.

That's probably the stupidest thing I've ever heard.

I would agree that men are generally more aggressive.

I hope by "betrayed" you're referring to an affair with another person, and not that you simply caught him jerkin' off to porn.

[Illusional]

that's like saying that i will only drink one type of beer in my entire life... or for that sake if you don't drink, that is like saying that you will only ever wish to try one flavor of ice cream for the rest of your life.

it's good to think positive, but realistically, think more realistic.

Just because you're dating someone, doesn't mean the rest of the world turns ugly.

[Illusional]

that usually will happens to a girl that dates me.. the rest of the world will become bitterly ugly.

^ I'm like that. Only enough room for 1 lady in my life.

I disagree. If one person from the relationsihp imagined having sex with someone else, it would hurt the other person very much if they knew. Just because the other person can't see their thoughts doesn't mean it's not unfaithful. But thanks for your opinion

I suppose you see having a wet dream about some one else as a form of cheating as well? I think your definition of unfaithfulness makes it imposible for anyone to actually be faithful. This is not what a dictionary definition of "faithfulness" is by the way. I think you are being a tad unrealistic with this, which may have something to do with personal insecurities. I would look into that if I were you.

[IndiReloaded]

What is in your mind is not a breach in faithfulness. So yes, it is possible to be 100% faithful. Thinking about another man or woman has no bearing on faithfulness whatsoever.

Yes. Most of the time, thoughts just lead to more thoughts, not action (this also explains a whole bunch of other human behaviour, btw). One isn't accountable for thoughts, OP, only acts of will.
