According to what I've been learning from all parts, this phrase may be wiser than it seems at first sight.
Nowadays, the time where secrets and lies are often unveiled and views are wider thanks to culture and globality, is it really true and correct to the best of our knowledge and belief that according to nature human kind is made to live in the same couple for life? Or is it just thousands of years of customs? hmmm.. even if I've always been correct until now, I'm beginning to think it's a one million dollar question.
What do you think?

I woul appreciate if religion was left out of your consideration as each inhabitant of the earth has it's own and it is tied striclty with one's people customs.
I didn't really mean you should be unfaithful to who you undertook to stay with. I took the recently become popular phrase at the top to get attention with a little humor.

You should fool around BEFORE you get married. Once you make a commitment, you ought to stick to it.

Monogamous relationships serve an important purpose in the structure of the human race...you can't possibly take this jest seriously. Think of all the possible out comes of such behaviour ...long term and short... Including the spread of STD's, better still look at the statistics ... we have been given the information but we still remain ignorant in the heat of the moment.
If such behavior were to become the norm the world would end in absolute chaos....
We are supposed to be an intelligent species...
however more often than we care to acknowledge, Neanderthal Behaviour, such as this rears its ugly head.
JUST BECAUSE IT WOULD SEEM THAT EVERYONE IS "DOING IT" does not make it right!!!
Ever seen the movie FATAL ATTRACTION? !!!
Take it from someone who along with children were the innocent victims of such behaviour from my significant other. The scars are there forever.

Life may be short, but bitternes, regret, ruined relationships and STD's can make it seem very, very, LONG.
God laid out a plan for marriage for our benefit, not to make us miserable or deprived. When we leave God out and do our own thing, eventually there is a steep price to pay.
Personally, I've been married to one man for 27 years. I've never had an affair of any kind. I've had good and bad years in my marriage. I've never had an STD. I don't worry about where my spouse is at night. We are stable ( maybe boring, but there are much worse things than boredom) :} We have a love that isn't based on sexual fireworks and romance, we have a love that is a deep peace/respect and affection (and a few "sparklers" now and then!!!)
Emotions come and go, circumstances change, genuine commitment is a lasting treasure. I treasure my beloved, Phil.

The whole world is lying in the power of the wicked one. The Lord looked and everywhere He saw was wickedness all around. The time has come for the end of all wicked mankind. Such a time that has not ever occurred nor will occur again. In fact if these days (coming) were not cut short there will be no one to survive....Read your Bible daily Meditate on it and pray that perhaps you may be hidden in the great day of His anger!

Humans are not monogamous by nature, that is all custom from when paternity was harder to determine and more important...in the "who is the next king" sense.
I don't advocate "cheating" meaning lying and sneaking. But open sexuality is the biological norm for humans and as marriage evolves, more and more people will avoid the trap of cheating by having sex with others - together!
Be open, honest and love one another. Stay with the one you've committed to and enjoy sex and sexuality together in a group setting.

very true; since affair only can enable and empower the self to live life longer and to enjoy it; and nothing else and no other action can; for then only you will be living your life for the other and not for yourself only; which in fact is the true purpose of the existence, presence and working of man and mankind on this earth.
But the phrase is not meant for those people who choose people, places and things only as their partners for having affairs of them selves and for themselves.
It is truly meant for those people only who also choose faith and faith fullness in people, places and things outside as the knowledge, guide, and abilities of both of themselves for the other; and which they do for enabling and empowering themselves and each other with, to enjoy the affairs of the life's of themselves.
The phrase has possibly been told to guide people; for motivating and driving themselves to work for enabling and empowering themselves with such knowledge and with qualities and abilities of such knowledge also; which can help them to make choices between faith together with love, and love only; and which can help them to choose not only faith over love; but also to seek and give faith also with their love to their loved ones. and from their loved ones
No doubt; a life unfaithfull towards self; is a meaningless life to live; which would cut short itself in the self. We can live only that life which is faithfull towards us; and like wise others also can live that life which is faithfull to wards them. Affairs of self can become possible only with faith and faithfullness of self towards partners; and not with love or joy alone.
