AshleyMadison.com

For those of you who did not click the link, ashleymadison.com is a dating website for married people looking to have an affair. Their tagline: "Life is short. Have an affair." Originally, it was: "Life is short. Life is shorter if your spouse finds you on this website and there is a loaded gun in your house," but for some reason, that deterred a lot of potential clients.

As horribly painful as the admission of an impulsive bad decision or developing feelings for someone else would be, how in a million years could you soften the blow if your wife/husband found out you were using this service?!?! "Honey...I'm so sorry. I just wanted to sleep with someone else. Anyone else, really. Just so long as it wasn't you. So, yeah. This was totally premeditated and had nothing to do with being tempted by another specific individual or situation. My criteria? Just one. Not you."

I'm most intrigued by the people who run and profit off of this website. And how it is that they offer an affair guarantee program, for the most dedicated of cheaters. Not to sound all old school or square...but seriously. Where are your mothers? Oh! it's this guy. And in this interview, he says he would be "hurt beyond belief" if he found out his wife were using the site. *Head explodes.* Do unto others, indeed...

My favorite thing on the Ashley Madison website is that is says "all members are 18 or over." One less thing to worry about while you are cheating on your significant other!
