The bad things about our technology sometimes outweigh the good.
I think too much internet is addictive and can cause relationship problems.
The anonimity is the problem. One never knows who one is talking to and what they will do with that information. That is my #1 reason I don't hang around chat rooms or participate much in threads. I do read a lot without logging in. Sometimes I go weeks without responding or even reading.

I don't view porn because I never had had an interest in it. I am not excited by pictures of women that don't even know I exist and don't care.
I'm really not even into TV. My son calls my speaker system "antiquainted" and my technology knowledge as "non-existant". I don't have a cell phone, I don't have any kind of friend account like facebook, I don't have HDTV or whatever those Blackberry things are. I do however have a calculator and an answering device on my land line.

If you are corresponding with someone that you don't know their status,
married, single or significant other, just ask them.

I don't know if chatting and e-mailing are cheating, but it is time consuming and there are other things in life beyond the computer and hi-tech devices.
