Fidelity and cheating

Dear Hillary,

You know it is pretty interesting to me to always hear the gents writing in about expectations of feminine fidelity when virtually none of them practice it themselves.  I have yet to meet a man who does not cheat even within a happy relationship.

Dear Robert,

I think there is a difference between “fidelity” and “cheating”.  My understanding of these two concepts in Thailand is that “fidelity” is an honest and mental relationship, where “cheating” is clandestine and not open at all and is physical.  “Fidelity” is then possible on the surface while “cheating” is below the surface – making it possible to have a happy relationship as you said, while cheating.  In the end, if you are in a relationship, keep it honest and don’t lie.  Lying is the start of the end of any relationship, as many people have found out.
